  fresh dressed ^* 'cause i shop at models
  deep in brooklyn i ride the elevated trains
  used to ride the d ^* to beat the morning bell
  at edward r. morrow out on ave l
  we be grillin' cheese and flippin' flapjacks
  with the diamond stylus we cutting wax
  we're the super elastic bubble plastic
  got ethereal material that's straight up classic
  you try to vex reject but you should respect
  or we'll have jc send you out a fedex * 1
  so don't start to flex up in the discotheque
  or we'll make you extinct tyrannosaurus rex
  
  we're gonna rock this motherfucker like three the hard way
  
  your rhyme technique, it is antique
  to all my heads qu'est-ce-que tu fabriques?
  que cosa fai? come sta e?
  ho fato molte telefonate
  oops gotcha clutch like plazza
  sneak between the sheets so hide like matzoh
  holler back challah bread... next
  we are the crew who put the crew in cruex
  i can see that def jam doesn't recognize me
  i'm mike d the one who put the satin in your panties
  time to count mc's in this place to be
  not five, not four, not two, just three
  
  we're gonna rock this motherfucker like three the hard way
  
  round-house kick the mic out your hand
  drunken mantis, my name brand
  so if you're slick with the tricks and the slight of hand
  i'm hip top the shit that you're trying to scam
  gnip gnop i got shit to pop
  i'm an exceptional professional that just don't stop
  so pack up your bag and your mic and don't wait
  e.t. phone home now get the fuck out my face
  you know we shake'em bake'em then we take'em
  treat mcs like leaves go out and rake'em
  if you sell our cds on canal before we make'em
  then we will have no alternative but to serve you
  on a platter like steak'em
  
  we're gonna rock this motherfucker like three the hard way
