[Slick Rick] 

Is it a custom - to what? To provoke out a hostile apostle 

and make him smack the coke out your nostril 

BAP, the butter cat at gutter rappin and I'm all man 

Whatever gotta happen gotta happen 

Boy don't make me put my grown man shoe in you 

And I'm sorry father, for any wrongdoing doin you 

Cause dogs barkin and the girl sigh 

Here to present myself as the sparkle of the world's eye 

Picture I - where Spice Girls chick arrived 

England, January 14th, six-five 

While you scream out Brannyville 

"You old ass rapper!" You got it, but can he still 

sever, in other words, rap more clever 

like no other younger rapper walkin could ever? 

Apparently I done this, on this 

Stunned his behind - out the way of who reign 

I RUN THIS

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched* 

"Run, run, run, r-run" * scratched from Run-D.M.C.* 

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched* 

[Rick] Out the way of who reign, I RUN THIS 

"Run. run, r-run" * scratched from Run-D.M.C.* 

[Rick] Stop the world kid, bring it home Slick 

"run, r-run" 

[Slick Rick] 

Are, you, ready? "run" 

The fact is, mack caught cable in an actress 

and really is the black Clark Gable of the rap biz 

Racists reactin, hastin for action 

The motherfucker got exquisite taste for a black man 

What you never know? All clothes come off a hoe 

Ever see me with my jewels and toast from off of Mo'? 

*psssh* Past where handsome measures 

like the whole entire Rat Pack, AND some precious 

And chartable, such a big spark I pull 

Nuns even say "That motherfucker's remarkable!" 

And aliens who came to earth gathering 

"Great gosh the man has soul, we must have him" 

Like a catastrophe, there isn't none after me 

Liz will throw away her walker and run after me 

Snatch crowns done this, on this 

Stunned his behind - out the way of who reign 

I RUN THIS 

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched* 

"Run, run, run, r-run" * scratched from Run-D.M.C.* 

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched* 

[Rick] Out the way of who reign, I RUN THIS 

"run, r-run" "as we go" "run, r-run" 

"run, r-run" "as we go" "run, r-run" 

"run, r-run" "as we go" "run, r-run" 

"as we go a little something like this, HIT IT!" 

[Slick Rick] 

Up Hastings, crew down faced and lose 

Either one way or the other, foundation choose 

Although the prune I kick, I didn't come to wound a sick child 

Hit a lost world, acting like a lunatic *blblblblbl* 

who provoke 'til a heard of smoke 

forced good men to pull out and start to murder folk 

Tired of the basement placed in 

Take responsibility for your action as a race then 

Instead of put cheer in our bone, paperhood promote 

negativity, and fear in our own neighbourhood 

Since royalty breed to be (uh-huh) 

And I puts small seed where small seed need to be 

Like an angel tend to fly as, mention I as 

I didn't make the laws, but they make sense to my ass 

While waitin for the world end, won this 

Stunned his behind - out the way of who reign 

I RUN THIS 

[Rick] See what I mean kid? 

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched* 

[Rick] That patch-eyed motherfucker RUN THIS 

"Run, run, run, r-run" * scratched from Run-D.M.C.* 

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched* 

[Rick] I RUN THIS 

"run, r-run" "run, r-run" 

"run, r-run" "run, r-run" 

"run, r-run" "run, r-run" 

Are, you, ready? "run" 

[Rick] RUN THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS 

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched* 

"Run, run, run, r-run" * scratched from Run-D.M.C.* 

"Hurry up, run" * cut and scratched*
