"Absolutely no one under 17 will be admitted without parent or certified adult guardian."
|
"They'll fry your brain. They're sick as hell!"
|
"Jolly good fun."
|
"You'll die dancin'!"
|
"Dark, gliding shapes that glide every long inch ... "
|
"Buy 'em or die a thousand deaths!"
|
|
Chorus:
|
Heyy!
|
2 Live Crew
|
Boys with the bass!
|
"You better know it!"
|
|
Verse 1: [Fresh Kid Ice]
|
That's right y'all, you heard it 'cause we said it
|
And if you can't read in the magazines,
|
You read about who? You know the Crew!
|
Fresh outta Pac
|
And the first to put the bass on the 24-track
|
Some said it wouldn't work, some said it wouldn't last
|
In New York, they say that the tempo's too fast
|
You disregarded, but the albums got charted
|
We put 'em in the stores and millions habe bought it
|
An underground sound, not liked by radio
|
You hear it in the cars and at the dicso
|
On the airwaves, we misbehave
|
We're too bold, too rugged in our nasty ways
|
From dirty minds come dirty rhymes
|
We're not gonna beg for your time
|
You don't play it? That's cool with me
|
But somehow, our bass still reaches the street
|
As long as we got it, you can get it
|
People want the bass, so some try to steal it
|
From behind our back, and not in our face
|
'Cause 2 Live is the Crew, the boys with the bass!
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Verse 2: [Brother Marquis]
|
Holdin' out own in the South-East region
|
When you come to the bottom, pledge to our allegiance
|
I'm glad to say that we're the proud owners,
|
The rock-and-rollers, you can't us this over
|
The name of the game is supply and demand
|
We supply the bass while you demand our jams
|
We could not wait to bring our bass to you
|
Because in this game, you lag, you lose
|
See, we serve our bass raw, straight up and not false
|
This is the kind you dance to, and not on 8-Ball
|
Plenty of bass, the beat, and the rhyme
|
That my homeboy Mr. Mixx carefully designed
|
Hittin' hard as hell, and always droppin'
|
Bass is the reason why you are rockin'
|
When you hear our songs, and you see our face
|
Put two and two together; we're the boys with the bass!
|
|
Chorus
|
("It's the best in this city!")
