Beauty And The Beat Lyrics - Hot Cool & Vicious - Salt N Pepa

Ooh baby, I like the sound when 

The switch is on and you start poundin' 

Out my radio and pretty soon 

Salt-N-Pepa will boom into the room 

Clap your hands, now people clap hard 

Clap your hands, now people clap your hands 

Clap your hands, now people stomp your feet 

Clap your hands, now people clap with me 

Listen hard and tell me what you hear 

Is it noise or is it def beats in your ear? 

You said you want one and now you got some 

Vicious snare, hi hats and a bass drum 

First the mix empress to impress you 

Cutting right on time and I'll bet you 

Didn't know it, you can't believe it 

(Did you? Could you?) 

Word to life, I swear we wouldn't kid you 

And she can cut it up like a wild animal 

Slicing and dicing away as a cannibal does 

'Cuz only a beauty can make you people clap with me 

Who is the best? We are the best, who's one of the best? 

You're one of the best 

Why am I so def? Why don't I have flaws? 

Why do I cut for Salt-N-Pepa? 

Because when my turntable talks your body 

Will listen to a message [unverified] tested and kickin' 

Out of my speakers and into your sneakers 

Providing conversation for the woofers and tweeters 

When I play the Technics obey 

'Cuz I'm a fader translator, a mix board slave 

And I'ma do like this on 'em, this on 'em 

When I'm on the floor, beat is like romance 

The rhythm makes love to me as I dance 

And from what I see it's about to be 

A relationship between beauty and the beat 

Word up y'all, it's a royal ball 

Turn hip-hop clubs into concert halls 

Inside is live if I use up highs 

Twelve hundred [unverified] 

Power in high drive, the woofers don't lie 

Opposites attract so the birthrate's high 

Your chest and ribcage the bass is poking at 

(Lower the what?) 

Stop joking, we can't do that it possess power 

You ask how-a people get louder 

Uh, step aside, sir 

Sir, will you please step aside for the 

Salt-N-Pepa MC's represent beauty 

We want y'all to see why we're the only 

Nominee nominated representing our race 

This jam is dedicated to all the pretty faces 

And we're gonna rock like you like 

Spinderella on the mix, Salt-N-Pepa on the mic 

And we can satisfy your desire 

We can make your body perspire 

Make the men all want to get with it 

Then take 'em down to the ultimate 

Sounds and I say, Spinderella's not a fella 

But a girl DJ
