Favourite Beastie Boys Lyrics

[ericg]

A butterfly floats on the breeze of a sun lit day
As I feel this reality gently fade away
Riding on a thought to see where it's from
Gliding through a memory of a time yet to come
Smoke paints the air Swirling images through my mind
Like a whirlpool spin beginning to unwind
And I stand at the edge cautiously awaiting
As time slips by
Carefully navigating by the stars in the sky
And I sit And I think to myself
And on the horizon the sun light begins to climb
And it seems like it's been so long since he shined
But I'm sure it was only yesterday

Namaste

A cold chill of fear cut through me
I felt my heart contract
To my mind I brought the image of light
And I expanded out of it
My fear was just a shadow
And then a voice spoke in my head
And she said dark is not the opposite of light
It's the absence of light
And I thought to myself
She knows what she's talking about
And for a moment I know
What it was all about.

[ericg]

Beatsie Boys known to let the beat
"MMM, D-r-r-rop!"
Do it

Do it

DO IT

I love how in live performances of Shake Your Rump, Ad-Rock says "Suckers they be saying they can do... WHAT!?" instead of "take out Adam Horovitz".

I always took it as he's shocked that they want to take him out, haha.

[ericg]

But we're here to work it out, in one way or another
To find a mutual respect for ourselves and one another
But the true key is a trust in self
For when I trust myself, I fear no one else
I took control of my life just as anyone can
I want everyone to see it's in the palm of your hand...

well he is a beautiful person and it would behoove us all to be more like him.. nah mean!?!

jsut don't play no game...

[ericg]

but there's no really being like him.. he's one of a kind and i just wanted to compliment him and sed some stupid shit.

anyway, all best even the rest
oh and 'pass the mic':

'...I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul
And now I'd like to pass the mic
To my brother Ad-Rock, c'mon and shine like a light...

Yes, yes y'all and yes, yes y'all
I'm always on time never the less, y'all
And that's right y'all, I shed light y'all
I've got no time in my life to get uptight y'all
So what you gonna say that I don't know already?
I'm like Clyde and I'm rockin' steady
But time flies when you're having fun
So Mike D (that's me), c'mon and get some

M.I.K.E. to the D
You come and see me and you pay a fee
Do what I do professionally
To tell the truth, I am exactly what I want to be
Now Ad-Rock and MCA
Let's rock this joint in the old school way

Well, I'm on 'til the crack of dawn
Mowing down M.C.'s like I'm mowing a lawn
I go off, like nothing can phase me
You think we'll ever meet Stevie? One of these days, D
But I can stand my ground and I am down
To wax an M.C. who acts like a clown
But for now, I'd like to ask you how
You like the feel of the bass in your face in the crowd...'
