I believe this thread has probably been before, but the Lyrics the Beasties have lyrics like NO other.....quite unique.
Remember this one:
"I'm a Def Manhattan killer - a rhyme driller
A mike in my hand and a mouth full of Miller"!!!.
:D Thats talent with an edge like no other ive heard!!
Whos got another classic line?

I was watching the DVD the other day with the lyrics on for the first time and was fairly shocked to realize that I'd been singing the wrong words to So What'cha Want for years and years now.
Apparently, Adrock says "You know I get fly, you think I get high, you know that I'm gone, and I'ma tell you all why." I always thought he was saying "You know I get fly, you think I get high, you know that I want a double decker on rye." Come on, it wouldn't be the first time they'd dropped a rhyme about a sandwich.
I remember learning the words to Check Your Head by reading the lyrics along with the music, and I had everything else right. I don't know how I got that line mixed up. I have to say I kind of prefer my version, though.
In regards to classic lines, though, I guess my all time favorite is probably:
My mind is kinda flowin like an oil projector
Had to get up to get the Jimmy protector
Went berserk and worked and exploded
She woke up in the morning and her face was coated
I just love the way it sounds, I'm not saying I promote exploding on girls' faces.

And then I broke into my new car with a wire coat hanger
Hot wired hot wheeled and "Suzy is a headbanger":p

Got rhymes that are rough and rhymes that are slick, I'm not surprised you're on my ****
Father to many - married to none, and in case you're unaware I carry a gun
Girls with boyfriends are the kind I like, I'll steal your honey like I stole your bike
Spent some bank - I got a high powered jumbo, Rolled up a wooly and I watched Columbo

When I got home I went down to the deli
I spent my last dime to refill my fat belly

If you use, doesn't that make you a user?
If you're a user, doesn't that mean you use?

ahaha it's funny, i remember that song "summer girls" (at least, i think it was called that, it was a one hit-wonder white rapper dude) and the artist who rapped that song used "Girls with boyfriends are the kind I like, I'll steal your honey like I stole your bike '' but change dit to "i stole your honey like i stole your bike"...funny stuff

OK, since my first answer was taken, I'll do this one:
I'm a city slicker I ain't no townie
Right now I wish I had another hash brownie

If your life needs correction don't follow my direction
You got your 8 by 10 your agent your Harley
You be driving around Hollywood yes sorry charlie
Cause I'm running things like some Mack motherfucker
Your only claim to fame is you're a false fake sucker

"well i'm as cool as a cucumber in a bowl of hot sauce
you got the rhyme and reason but got no cause
but if you're hot to trot you think you're slicker than grease
i got news for you crews, you'll be sucking like a leech"
"like one eyed jacks, the suicide kings
you want wildness - wild a bring
my uncle freddy's making horseraddish
to serve you on a platter like gefilte fish"
"i'm a funky ass jew and i'm on my way and
i gotta say, fuck the kkk"
the beasties' rhymes are so unique!
