I Desire Lyrics - Hot Cool & Vicious - Salt N Pepa

We're on a mission 

Dissin' all of the opposition 

MC's, it's my butt you're kissin' 

Because I desire 

Yo, wait a minute, chill, I want ya all to hear 

Why rap is not a joke, for us it's a career 

Others try to imitate but none has come near 

So you see, why everybody stands up and cheer 

And if you really think about it, you know what it means 

To be a female rapper from the heart of Queens 

And see others dream about being supreme 

But once on the scene, we start killing Kings 

People claim we're too wild to tame 

On stage we behave like sizzlin' flame 

And oh, so cool when we rap you need a sweater 

The rhymes so tough, you swear they're made of leather 

Get the best of your bunch, and I bet that we're better 

Tell 'em why, pepa, tell 'em why, 'cuz I desire 

DJ's come and go just like the wind 

But mine is better than all of them 

She's sharper than a razor when it comes to a cut 

More lethal than a laser if you wanna play rough 

Not the object of a show, subject to cut [unverified] 

[Unverified] tell you spinderella's dope 

Call her spin for short but she don't take [unverified] 

Wanna duel? you're a fool [unverified] 

Choppin' beats for these until the turntables bleed 

Scratches so damn hard, you'd swear the mixer had fleas 

She's the mutilator, music carnivore 

Spinderella rocks the records with a chainsaw 

You're still amazed by the way she plays 

Not a fad but a phase of the hip-hop craze which I desire 

Salt from the pepa and my name is Cher 

From Queens, New York not Delaware 

I like my steak well done, 'cuz I hate it rare 

And I'm lovable and huggable like Yogi the bear 

Pepa from the salt, so do not rip 

'Cuz if you do I'll shift from first to fifth 

Lights out, it's heard, I thought you were dead 

Short, fading went I went upside your head 

So get back to the beat 'cuz the beat is bad 

The beat pro and the bass gets much impact 

The beats rock and just because the beat kicks bass 

We're gonna bounce this beat all over the place 'cuz I desire 

While you're on the set let the cameras roll 

Salt and pepa are the stars, the world's the video 

Your room is boomin' when we're on your stereo 

So hold on tight, don't dare let go 

We're the teachers, you're the students, class is in session 

Pay attention boys and girls, and learn your lesson 

We're running things, yes, we're taking over 

You be the grass, we'll be the lawnmower 

Never fakin' or takin', not givin' no slack 

Not trying, succeeding 'cuz it's like that 

Hot damn, how could you be so dog gone dumb? 

Trying to dis salt and pepa when we're number one? 

But we excuse you 'cuz you're dippy, your mind's in a daze 

Like every duck you're confused in so many ways 

Giving nothing, taking all whether big or small 

We got a [unverified] beat and it's dope, def y'all 

Every day of the week you're at my beck and call 

You wanna try me out? You don't have the gall 'cuz I desire
