"Oh, mc, won't you rhyme for me one time..."
To the chicks and the bros, to the pimps and the hoes,
cheap seats to the front row!
"Oh, mc, won't you rhyme for me one time..."
To the kids in the Polo, to the nasty-ass hobos;
welcome to the mc chris show!
Okay, you want a rhyme, how would you like it cooked?
I only serve it well, you can check the record books.
You can check my record sales, not bad for an Indie.
Want square beef, then go eat at Wendy's.
Now nerds are trendy, they call it Geek Chic.
Nerds never noticed, they were on their PCs.
Never mind a chill pill, you ill will get deep freezed,
now hold up for a second - mc can't breathe!
HUUUHHH! Okay, I'm back, I shouldn't have left you.
I'm Max on the tracks, I might need some Headroom.
Allergic to my deaf tunes like they were legumes;
in the distance, you'll be limbless sayin', "Just a flesh wound!"
Sometimes I rhyme fast, sometimes I drink quick.
If this was gym class, I'd be the last picked,
but it's a rap record, a brand new jam fix.
Wait 'til the fans get their hands on this shit.

Are you lost and alone like a lonely little goldfish?
We fit together like soap in a soap dish.
I know you think that it's hopeless.
Well, let me fill you up with a cup of hot dopeness.
Kids, they quote Chris. Think I don't know this?
Check the flow, bitch, you need to get to know kitsch.
If the niche fits, kids foamin' with canip' spit,
better stick 'cause a nine to five's for dipshits.
Ends with interest sweeter than a Chipwich,
stick to ya ribs like barbecue beef brisket.
Visit for a minute, get baked like I'm Bisquick.
Leave the ladies horny, give the dogs little lipsticks.
It's the hip shit.
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic.
Every song's on your wishlist. Every day's mcchristmas.
Now can I get a witness?

Sweet lady on the telephone
She likes fast cars made in Rome
Two week vacation in the hot, hot sun
She?s drop dead gorgeous, man, she loves to have fun
Aha, she loves Italian
Aha, she loves Italian
Ooh wah ooh, ooh wah ooh, ooh wah ooh
Brothers call her Desire
A sweet sister of fire
Were you born with a silver spoon?
I dig your style, man, you fly me to the moon
Aha, she loves Italian
Aha, she loves Italian
Ooh wah ooh, ooh wah ooh, ooh wah ooh
She's got money, but she don?t care
A fancy talk only bores her to tears
She makes a move to a seaside cafe
She orders pasta and a glass of champagne
Aha, she loves Italian
Aha, she loves Italian
Ooh wah ooh, ooh wah ooh, ooh wah ooh
She deserves to be in diamonds and furs
She likes to dance with a sexy little twirls
You make my heart skip, skip, skip, skip
I?ll give my right arm for a kiss, kiss, kiss
Aha, she loves Italian

Oh, do you remember
When we were young?
We just had fun
Pedal to the metal, shine into the steel
Sitting up front, Elivisi by the wheel
Putting out of Island Bay, weather looking fine
Flick the switch, needle twitch, FM to the dial
Buddy Toledo singing to the songs
Watching all the P?s and Q?s, nothing can go wrong
Dino Valentino and his lady, flashes cash as the deals go by
So good to be alive, right on, right on
Oh, do you remember
When we were young?
We just had fun
Pieces to the puzzle, music is the word
Franko?s on the show, flying out the bird
Somersaults and figure eights, breaking all the rules
Pushing all the pushers, The King of the New School
Buddy Toledo fronting on the stage
Pacifies the masses with a smile and a wave
Dino Valentino and his lady counts the cash as deal goes by
So good to be alive, right on, right on
Oh, do you remember
When we were young?
We just had fun
Oh, do you remember
When we were young?
We just had fun
Oh, do you remember
When we were young?
We just had fun
Oh, do you remember
When we were young?
We just had fun
Oh, do you remember
When we were young?
It's days like these that make me think of you constantly
It's like I sit around waiting for you response
It's like the phone and I have telepathy
Could you please just maybe give me a sign?
You looked across the room at me
She walked up and said nothing
You said it with a smile, you said it with a smile
Denim jeans and white leather loafers
Sky blue eyes but nobody noticed
Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby it just pours out your eyes
You don't know it, you don't show it
You don't know what you do, what you do
You don't know it and you don't show it
You don't know what you do, what you do
You like to hang around classy restaurants
You like to call me at home on my cell phone
You pull my heart strings 'cos you know I won't go
You make a scene as you turn to wave goodbye
Felt like raindrops crying from the sky
Oh, you act so cool, you're nobody's fool
She loves soapies and oriental cats
Plastic fantastic and China's on the go
Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, it just pours out your eyes
Oh lady, what cha doing?
You just give it all away,oh, You just give it all away
Oh, you just give it all away, I can see it in your eyes
You just give it all away,oh, You just give it all away
A why did I do it, a why did I do it
I asked myself a hundred times and then I start to cry
It's up to my neck now I'm runnin' like a dog
I can't remember how it started
But it's too late to turn back the clock
I gotta keep on, and on, and on, and on
Oh my heart's prayin' for a heart attack
I'm gonna collapse but I better not
I'll get a few years for the things I've done
I'll never see the sunrise no more what the hell
I'm gotta keep on
Fighting for my sanity and for family
And for my baby, oh for my baby
Bullshit aside yea I knew how to play the game right
But this time I made a mistake and I'm gonna pay the price
I'd rather be payin' to the grim reaper, than the law keeper
I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin', out of time
Too late to waste time in haste
I fell to my knees to pray to your God
But your God wasn't there for me
And so I prayed to myself for long life and stamina
I do believe I was startin' to lose my nerve and my mind
I heard a little voice screamin'
If you do the crime you will send to the time
If you do the crime you will send to the time
If you do the crime you will send to the time
Shit I won't bow down to that
A belly of a priest doesn't have his name on his slip no
I gotta keep on movin' and groovin', I gotta keep on movin' and groovin'
I gotta keep my mind clear for the devils and the demons I will not fear
The devils and demons I will not fear
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
Siale?s gone away and she?s never comin? back here again
I understand, I know where you?re comin? from
Just take your time, you've planned this since the first time we met, oh
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back?
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back?
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back again?
First time I saw you, you were crowned in silver
You?re hair full of fire, I guess you would have been a goddess
Incognito, hiding all my lies, and this year, I was more than content
Ten times my eyes glanced upon your temple
But I never imagine my deep fantasies
In case you really had another lover, another brother
I know your name is desire
The words you speak chocolate coated whispers
You have a style so unique and pure
A vision from up above, I think I?m infatuated by your spirit
As you passed by my eyes
I?m like a little child mesmerized by your magic
Well, ten times my eyes glanced upon your temple
Well, ten times my eyes glanced upon your temple
Time flies when you?re havin? fun
Well, time flies when you?re havin? fun
Well, time flies when you?re havin? fun, well, time flies
Siale?s gone away and she?s never comin? back here again
I understand, I know where you?re comin? from
So take your time, you've planned this since the first time we met
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back?
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back?
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back again?
Time flies when you?re havin? fun
Well, time flies when you?re havin? fun
Well, time flies when you?re havin? fun, well, time flies
Siale?s gone away and she?s never comin? back here again
I understand, I know where you?re comin? from
Just take your time, you've planned this since the first time we met
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back?
Are you ever comin? back? Are you ever comin? back?
Higher flier, angel's wings we drive
My destination, Happy Ville
Money spent on refreshments to cool my temperature
A fine wine or two, sweet food for my mind song
The coolest music to swing to
Jamming out tunes that remind me of you
My pockets lined with gold, I sold the old to reflect
The new tune on my stereo, blow, flow
Tasting sweet dreams caresses me, tried a new style
Wow, lost the vibe while I was in denial
Took a bad trip, slip, flip, shook my ego
I shouldn?t let it get me down son
I need to just live a little, play some fun games
With sisters with no names, stories told in street lingo
Understandable by some friends, I have none
Brothers and sisters under the same old sun
Naked to the devil's deviants, we show a blind eye
We need no one to spoil our adventures of books
Marked at chapter one
Underlined 'Ravings of Polynesia'
Lingo with the Gringo, I?m in Lingo with the Gringo
Lingo with the Gringo, I?m in Lingo with the Gringo
Lingo with the Gringo, I?m in Lingo with the Gringo
Lingo with the Gringo
Lingo with the Gringo, I?m in Lingo with the Gringo
Lingo with the Gringo, I?m in Lingo with the Gringo
Lingo with the Gringo, I?m in Lingo with the Gringo
A long white cloud ancient land
Open field sacred ground
Bays of plenty, the bluff, the cape
Streaming sands, boiling place
White water swells, bridges of old
Deep clear nights, open shores
Winter season brings out the best
Summer nights in Auckland
And my father used to say
"Oh, we came to this land of plenty
And we came to this land of hope
We came to this land of good times
And we came to this land of love
Oh, we came to this land of love"
Mountain range, snow peak tops
Fresh water stream, Fouveax strait
Open caves that glow supreme
Black sand shores, lion rock
Monuments, mission bay
Cuba street, Vulcan lane
Westerly winds, sun and rains
Beautiful days in the Wellington
And my father used to say
"Oh, we came to this land of plenty
And we came to this land of hope
We came to this land of good times
And we came to this land of love
Oh, we came to this land of love"
Desert roads, Mt. Ruapehu
The piston ferry decides your fate
Oval square, civic center
And Nelson Gorge where we lost a mate
Oamaru via Timaru
Winding roads, sudden bends
Lake taupe, Bethel's beach
A word to the wise increase the peace
And my father used to say
"Oh, we came to this land of plenty
And we came to this land of hope
We came to this land of good times
And we came to this land of love
Oh, we came to this land of love"
Oh, we came to this land of plenty
And we came to this land of hope
We came to this land of good times
And we came to this land of love
The lady you were going to America with just left on an early plane
She took the keys to the apartment and left you standing out in the rain
Well, all the bros try to tell you but she said I don?t wanna know
She basically taken everything and left you nothing to your name
Nothing to your name
You borrowed money from the brothers now, time to collect the claim
You can?t even pay for the coffee but still you point the blame
It?s like you?re waiting for a miracle man, it?s just one of those days
Well, I suppose you were never told, so the story unfolds
I think you?ve gone too far this time but who am I to say?
Well, all your debts are numbered now, shall we call it a day?
Call it a day?
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Your mother hides behind the curtains when you pull into her drive
She wipes her tears because the only time she sees you
Is when you?ve taken a dive
You keep saying that?s the system man but you and I know
I think it?s time to count your blessings friend
You?re the only one to blame, only one to blame
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Three years later and you change your ways
You?ve got a stupid grin on your face
You?ve learned your lesson at long last
What a shame you had to learn that way
I?d like to leave you with just two things
You can take them anyway you like
But when you?re in they all come around
And when you?re out they don?t wanna know
But when you?re in they all come around
And when you?re out they don?t wanna know
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Oh man, you?re breaking my heart
Ceali is gone away
And she's never comin' back here again
I understand, I know where you're comin' from
So, take your time
You've planned this since the first time we met, oh
Are you ever comin' back?

First time I saw you, you were crowned in silver
Your hair full of fire
Guess you would have been a goddess
[Unverified] I would fortify and this shit
I was more than content
Ten times my eyes glanced upon your temple
But I could never imagine your deep fantasies
In case you really had another lover, another brother
Fantasize, you're unique and pure
The words you speak, chocolate coated whispers
You have a style so unique and pure
The heavens up above, I think I'm infatuated by your spirit
Well, ten times my eyes glanced upon your temple
Well, ten times my eyes glanced upon your temple
Time flies when you're havin' fun
Time flies when you're havin' fun
Time flies when you're havin' fun
Well, time flies
Ceali's gone away
And she's never comin' back here again
I understand, I know where you're comin' from
Just take your time
You've planned this since the first time we met, oh
Are you ever comin' back?
Are you ever comin' back?
Are you ever comin' back?
Are you ever comin' back?
Are you ever comin' back?
Brother Pele's in the back
Sweet Zina's in the front
Cruising down the freeway
In the hot, hot sun
Suddenly red blue lights
Flash us from behind
Loud voice, booming
" please step out onto the line"
Pele breathes words of comfort
Zina just hides her eyes
Policeman taps his shades
Is that a Chevy 69?
How bizarre
How bizarre
How bizarre
Destination unknown
As we pull in for some gas
A freshly pasted poster
Reveals a smile from the pack
Elephants and acrobats,
Lions snakes monkey
Pele speaks righteous
Sister Zina says funky
How bizarre
How bizarre
How bizarre
Ooh baby, (ooh baby)
It's making me crazy, (it's making me crazy)
Everytime I look around
Look around
Everytime I look around(everytime i look around)
Everytime I look around
It's in my face
Ringmaster steps up
Says the elephants left town
People jump and jive `round
The clowns have struck around
T.V. news and cameras
There's choppers in the sky
Marines, police, reporters
Ask the where, for and why
Pele yells "we're outta here"
Zina says "right on"
Make your moves and starting grooves
Before they knew we're gone
Jump into the Chevy
Headed for big lights,
Want to know the rest
Hey, buy the rights,
How bizarre
How bizarre
How bizarre
Ooh baby, (ooh baby)
It's making me crazy, (it's making me crazy)
Everytime I look around
