Text: Will Smith. Jeff Was on the Beat Box.
Hip hop
Chance to rock
Jeff was on the beat box
There was a party the other day around my way
They asked if me and Jeff would play, we said okay
We nipped out to get the hip hop apparatus
Came back with the posse in full effect status
While Jeff set up, I said, "Check one two, y'all"
Everybody clap, let's begin to ball
I was rapping a capella but I had to stop
Because chaos broke because Jeff was on the beat box
Just cut it up, Jeff
Hip hop
Chance to rock
Jeff was on the beat box
Did you know that parties were all the same when we came up?
We had to rearrange and make a change
I remember how it was people standing still
The music was wack so they chose to get ill
People started breaking and fights would start to break out
This is the reason why some people make out
Hip hop to be bad because of this behavior
Then like a miracle two musical saviors
One with a microphone, the other with tables
Both up ready both willing and able
Burst on the scene like TNT, people said, "Who can it be?"
Can't you see it's Jeff and me?
We all blazed as musical scholars
Fast admiration, manifestin' dollars
Couple of kids with a bright idea
Didn't want a 9 to 5, made rap careers
People tried to diss and make the egos shrink
But we believe in ourselves, so to hell what they think
Moving like a freight train we can't be stopped
Especially when I'm on the microphone and Jeff is on the beat box
Hip hop
Chance to rock
Jeff was on the beat box
Yo cut it up Jeff
Hip hop
I know I talk about Jeff a whole hell of a lot
But straight up, man, you gotta give him his props
There's not many people who can do what he does
Marly Marl, Teddy Riley and Herbie the Love Bug
But other than that there's not many around
That can take that box and make it sound
Like anything that you could possibly want
Now here's a rhyme that sums it up
Jeff is diggy diggy D dope and
You DJ's out there keep hopin'
His beat boxers will be broken
But you might as well just keep hopin'
[Unverified]
You think he can your mistaken
Our records he is brizzeakin'
(Breakin')
(Come on, man, you can mix)
Grammy winning musicians
His beat box is a kizz-kickin'
And all my rhymes are hizz-hittin'
The albums out so go get it
There ain't no way we st-stopping
We got the party rizzockin'
(Rockin')
We got the crowd a hip hoppin'
When Jeff is on the beat box
Chance to rock
Jeff was on the beat box
One more time scratch Jeff
Hip hop
Mmm let's see what's next on the agenda
That's right, oh yeah, I've got it I remember
I was discussion when Jeff's on stage
Yeah, hands clap
Ya feet tap
Ya eardrums pulsate
Ya body will move
As ya flow with the groove
And you smile as he composes this new rap tune
When he's on the stage he can't be stopped
Specially when I'm on the microphone and Jeff is on the beat box
Chance to rock
Jeff was on the beat box
