Skills To Pay The Bills Lyrics - The Sounds Of Science - Beastie Boys

I've got the skills to pay the bills, ya 

I got the got the got the skills to pay the bills 

I've got the skills to pay the bills 

Ah what you got, I got the skills to pay the bills 

I'm Mike D and I'm bustin' out trap kits (Haha) 

The time has come so I'm going to rap this (yeah) 

You Rip Van Winkle, now you're gonna wake up 

MC's, pick up a hobby that you're gonna' take up 

Well, on the stage I'm known to break fool, huh 

But when I'm at the table it's the Futterman's rule (wohoo) 

Workin' on my game cause it's time to tax 

I'm on a crazy mission to wax Bob Mack, shit 

Up to the top, 'till the very last drop (yeah) 

I'll make you tapes of the rhymes I say 

I'm selling sex rhymes by the pound 

You horny MC's, I watch you getting around my ? agh shit 

The skills to pay the bills 

I got the got the got the skills to pay the bills 

I got the got the got the skills to pay the bills 

I got the skills to pay the bills, ya'll 

So it better pull through when it comes to me 

Let it go down like it's supposed to be 

Words together like birds in a flock 

Ah yes rhymes on time like the hands on a clock 

Well I'm an epileptic, a skept-a-cleptic, check it 

I'm cutting up the beats from the bear, I clept it 

I fucked around and then I lost my tooth ahaa 

I'm telling everybody it's the goddamn truth 

Like Dennis Coffey, I'm a Scorpio 

Like my man Schneider, I'm a super ho (super ho) 

Making mountains out of molehills and rockin' some mo' skills 

Butt naked beats with butt naked fills 

I got the skills what skills 

To pay the bills 

I got the skills what skills 

To pay the bills 

I got the skills what skills 

To pay the bills 

I got the skills to pay the bills ya'll 

Hu-hu-hu-haa 

A-wella', wella', wella', wella', welcome back 

I don't sell bullets and I don't sell crack 

Rub a little oil on my neck and back shit 

Now listen baby doll, we outta hit the sack 

The original, Young Aboriginal (ohoo) 

Continued evolution of an individual, well I'll tell ya 

Got so many rhymes ya know my throat is sore 

It's 1992 and still no one to vote for 

Well, like my words is what I'm seeing through my own eyes 

A little vision of the truth in a world of lies 

When it comes to coming off I like to get my fill
