Beastie Boys - Alive lyrics
[Beastie Boys - Alive lyrics]
I have never been more ready in my
Entire life to do this right now never
It's all been leading up to this moment
All right now, right here
My whole life, right here
We got rhyme selections in a wide array
J'ai des bonbons pour vous manger
The party people scream, "Oui, oui
C'est vrai"
'Cause, I got a remote for my bidet
Now A-D-R-O-C-K
I use the microphone like Picasso used clay
Down with Freckles from around the way
Peace to Bambaataa and Jazzy Jay
I rock on the mic from here to Bombay
I give it my best and say come what may
'Cause everybody's got their dues to pay
I'm looking sideways like my man Pele
Gettin' on like Ali bomaye
So fed up with racism today
Time to speak up and not turn away
Make the sun shine when it's cloudy and gray
Dip dip dive so socialize
Open up your ears and clean out your eyes
If you learn to love
You're in for a surprise
It could be nice to be alive
I'm taking doody rhymes to a brand new height
I shine on the mic like UltraBright
Created a monster with these rhymes I write
Goatee metal rap, please, say goodnight
Now here's a little something
You may not like
My DJ's name is Mix Master Mike
It's a real pity that you people got to bite
But, I could understand because
He sounds so nice
Reading you the news cause I'm Country Mike
Use a microphone like Shazam uses tights
Try to keep clear of that hate and spite
So I keep my mind still
Like the still of night
Now who in the world do you want to fight?
It's against the system, we should unite
Homophobics ain't alright
If you learn to love
Then you might love life
Dip dip dive so-socialize
Open up your ears and clean out your eyes
If you learn to love
You're in for a surprise
It could be nice to be alive
Bring it back that old New York rap
Bring it back that old New York rap
Bring it-Bring it back that old New York rap
Bring it-Bring it back that-Bring
It-Bring it back that
Bring it-Bring it back that old New York rap
Bring it back that old New York rap
Bring it-Bring it back that-Bring
It-Bring it back that
Bring it-Bring it back that old New York rap
Now you can shuffle numbers
But facts is facts
So many billionaires while so many lack
So before the poor decide to react
Come on party people and share up your stacks
Now I'm-a break it down to the brass tacks
Do the Biz Mark dance and the cabbage patch
You try to turn the key but
Then you broke the latch
Sneak into my files for some rhymes to snatch
I'd like to have a say on the income tax
Don't wanna help build bombs
And that's the facts
No money for health care so what's the catch?
The man got you locked with
No key to the latch
Mike and Adam have got my back
You bring the mic and we'll bring the raps
Turn on the PA and rock your shack
Don't smoke cheeba, can't stand crack
Dip dip dive so-socialize
Open up your ears and clean out your eyes
If you learn to love
You're in for a surprise
It could be nice to be alive
Entire life to do this right now never
It's all been leading up to this moment
All right now, right here
My whole life, right here
We got rhyme selections in a wide array
