superappin'

it was a party night

everybody was breaking

the highs were screaming and the bass was shaking

and it won't be long till everybody knows when that

flash was on the beat box going that

flash was on the beat box going that

flash was on the beat box going

and and and and

sha na na

italian

caucasian

japanese

spanish

indian

negro and vietnamese

mcs

disc jockeys to all the fly kids and the young ladies

introducing the crew ya got to see to believe

we're one

two

three

four

five mcs

i'm melle mel and i rock it so well

and i'm mr. ness because i rocks the best

i'm rahiem in all the ladies' dreams

and i'm cowboy to make ya jump for joy

i'm creole

solid gold

the kid creole playing the role

dig this

we're the furious five plus grandmaster flash

giving you a blast and sure enough class

so to prove to ya all that we're second to none

we're gonna make five mcs sound like one

ya gotta dip dip dive

so so socialize

clean out your ears then open your eyes

and then pay at the door as a donation

to hear the best sounds in creation

he's a disco dream of a mean machine

and when it comes to size

ya see what we mean

ya see his name is not found in the hall of fame but he'll shock

and amaze ya and make ya feel shame

he takes a lime from a lemon

and from a lemon to a lime

he cuts the beat in half the time

and as sure is 3 times 2 is 6

you'll say flash is the king of the quick mix

we're five mc's and we're on our own

and we're the most well known on the microphone

and we throw down hard and we aim to please

with finesse to impress all the young ladies

we got rhymes galore and that's a fact

and if the satisfaction's guaranteed to cause a heart attack

we are the best as you can see

so eliminate the possibility

that to be an e-m-c-e-e

is not a threat to society

say step by step

stride by stride

i know the fly young lady would like to ride

in my mercedes

'young ladies'

in my mercedes

'young ladies'

if my mercedes breakdown and dull my grill

i will drive up in a new seville

if my seville break down

i take it back

i will dull my grill in a new cadillac

if my cadillac break down

it's too much

i will shock your mind in a new star stutz

and if a stutz break down

i make another choice

i will dull my grill in a new rolls royce

and if a royce break down

i'll be out in the rain

and then forget it

forget it

forget it
