I agree it's a hard song to transcribe, and I don't know all the gaps, but I will try to offer corrections.


There's a bird in here
That's our DJ, and I got the Brassiere
Dropping bombs like a bombardier
KAPOW! -- it's a chocolatier

We givin y'all a lil slice of heaven
B Boys bringing it back to A7
Deal with the schism, ride on the rhythm
Sweet like pie and the pie what I give em

I'll stage a coup and usurp your position
'Cause--'cause like a mormon, I'm on a mission
We are indivisible
The kings of lyrical
The method is physical
The moment is critical



Ruff!
Uh, Lee Majors come again

Like the Six Million Dollar Man
Woo! Watch out!
In the back of the bus...the bus!
Lee Majors style

I said stop! Watch how I flip
Still keep on with the Kung-Fu grip
Haymaker, roundhouse, ??????
At the roller-rink, down in Virginia

Oh, did I, spill the beans?
I seen your grandpa in Apple Bottom jeans
Von Dutch cap, Ugg boots to match
The word gets out, you can't take it back

'Cause I'm a force, take on the competition expert
Well, I'm just a doggone, long-wall, tall-long spinner
You want a battle? Please do not start
Our DJ's so nasty, he needs a sneeze guard



Fucking hard to decipher anyway, but from the bear I clept it, they need all the help they can get. Not sure about the chorus, but that is as good a guess as one could expect.

I'm apparrently hearing impaired but I thought 'Wanna-wanna make it' in the chorus was 'running around naked' :p

Thanks man and yauch's lyrics are always the hardest to make out i guess because of the raspy voice!

[djc1980]

Oh yeah smell the beat???? i thought is was oh yeah spilled my beans :rolleyes:

[Jiberish]

You got a lot right. I would not have even bothered to try to decipher the lyrics if you didn't do it first. You got a lot wrong too. These are the ones I caught.

My guesses in Bold.

We give y'all a lil slice of heaven
B Boys bringing it back to A7
Here with a schism, RIDE on the rhythm
Sweet like pie and the power that they give us

I said stop! Watch how I flip
Cue Key Mark with the Kung-Fu grip
Paid like a roundhouse show and cotillion
At the roller rink down in Virginia

Oh, do not spill the beans
I seen your grandpa in Apple Bottom jeans
Von Ducth Cap
Ugg Boots to Match
The word gets out, you can't take it back

'Cause I'm a force, take on the competition expert
Well, I'm just a doggone, long-wall, tall-long spinner
You want a battle?Please do not spar
MY DJ's so nasty, he needs a sneeze guard

[RT400z]

"I seen your grandpa in Apple Bottom jeans"

LOL... say WHAT? XD

[laurie_hammy]

Has anyone ripped Lee Major on its own from that interview ? It does seem to sound a lot better. SiK track.

[facedownfall]

I said stop watch how I grip
Bill Piedmont with the kung fu grip
Haymaker Roundhouse Show Can't Continue
at the roller rink down in Virginia!

(Kid Presentable please tell the story about the roller rink in Newport News).

[MCMel]

Not me!:rolleyes: Just know I keep hearing "There's a bird in here" off and on in my head for the last couple days-can't help it, lol! Seriously what I did catch sounds so in your face to all the wannabes trying to remake all the old school stuff from movies to TV you name it "Wanna wanna make that" "take a look around you" hell yeah(y)

[laurie_hammy]

Anyone know what thread those scanned lyrics are in ? Been looking for ages.

As far as I can tell, this is my interpretation of MCA's first verse...


I'm seein' every detail like an overcranked camera

Sleestaks in the back say "damn ya"

You say, "You can't"

And I say, “why can’t ya?”

Droppin’ the track

You know, in the land of…



"overcranked camera" is a very old film industry term used to describe slow motion cinematography. Back when motion picture cameras were hand cranked, they would turn the crank faster (“overcrank”) so that when the film was played back at regular speed they would achieve a slow motion effect (“every detail”).

“Sleestaks” and “in the land of…” is a reference to the 1970’s TV show “Land of the Lost”. The Sleestaks were the antagonist lizard creatures on the show. But don't quote me on that.
