This speech is my recital, I think it’s very vital
To rock (a rhyme), that’s right (on time)
It’s Tricky is the title, here we go…
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…it’s Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…Tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tricky) Trrrrrrrrrrricky
I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly
Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early
These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me
Or spend some time and rock a rhyme, I said “It’s not that easy”
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…(How is it D?) It’s Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Trrrrrricky)
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…Tricky (Tricky) Tricky
In New York the people talk and try to make us rhyme
They really (hawk) but we just (walk) because we have no time
And in the city it’s a pity cos we just can’t hide
Tinted windows don’t mean nothin’, they know who’s inside
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…(How is it D?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky) huh!
When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time
I’m not singin’, phone keep ringin’ cos I make up a rhyme
I’m not braggin’, people naggin’ cos they think I’m a star
Always tearin’ what I’m wearin’, I think they’re goin’ too far
A girl named Carol follows Daryll every gig we play
Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she’s jockin’ Jay
I ain’t lyin’, girls be cryin’ cos I’m on TV
They even bother my poor father cos he’s down with me
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…(How is it?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
It’s Tricky…Tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tr-Tr-Tr-Tricky) Tr-tr-tr…
We are not thugs (we don’t use drugs) but you assume (on your own)
They offer coke (and lots of dope) but we just leave it alone
It’s like that y’all (y’all), but we don’t quit
You keep on (rock!) shock! Cos this is it…
You have, I hope, seen‘s anime music video to that song, right?
nope… I only ever tried to look at his anime videos once and the net was down or something… never got around to going back… and now I forget… URL?
I’m working on getting a new server since my current one has bandwidth issues, I’ll drop you a link later when the new server is up and running. But if you’re got an account at animemusicvideos.org, you can access the video information and a download link at http://tricky.desu.org
It’s scary that I’ve heard the song often enough that I bet I could write out all of the lyrics from memory though.
cool… maybe I’ll try it when I get home from work… or maybe I’ll see once you get your new server
*does an Uber trick in Jay’s name*
Run DMC was one of my earliest memorable musical influences.
I love that song and all it’s limericky goodness.
And I’m still sore that there was that Run DMC show in PGH a couple months before the tragedy, and it was an over 21 show and I was 20. GRRRR.
