DJ Jazzy Jeff, The Fresh Prince - Brand New Funk lyrics
[DJ Jazzy Jeff, The Fresh Prince - Brand New Funk lyrics]
It's new it's out of the ordinary
It's rather extrordinary
So yo bust this commentary
A literary genius and a superior beat creator
Have come together and we made a
Musical composition which we think
Is a remedy
To cure all the dance floors that's empty
You wanna dance? We got what you want
Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince bustin out
With the brand new funk
It was kind of an accident
The way that it happened
One day I was rappin, and on the beat
Jeff was backin me up
And all of a sudden, he brought in a cut
And I dropped my microphone and said
"What the?
Hold up, Jeff, wait a minute, play it"
He just smiled and said, "yeah def ain't it?"
It was funky it made wanna (get, get down)
And we knew almost at once it
Was the brand new funk
So we continued to listen to it
And we knew it was def when
I started rappin to it
So I gave a hi-five to Jeff
And without hesitation popped in my cassette
I took it home that night, and analyzed it
Rewound the tape over and over
And memorized it
That Friday, we went to the club
And out and out cold tore it up!
You shoulda seen the people dancin' and
Shakin' and movin' and jumpin'
And spinnin' and clappin'
While the beatbox was groovin'
And screamin' and yellin' while on
The microphone I was flowin'
Fresh rhymes I was showin', the people say
"Yo keep goin'" so I continued to rock
While Jeff was on the beatbox
Special assistance from my homeboy Ready Rock
People fought just to get up front
To get a bird's eye view of what
We call the brand new funk
Yo Jeff! (Rock the beat)
Yo Jeff! (Rock the beat)
Yo Jeff! (Rock the beat)
Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches
Yo Jeff! (Rock the beat)
Yo Jeff! (Rock the beat)
Yo Jeff! (Rock the beat with your hands)
Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches
Now get funky with the beat!
Jeff starts spinning backwards
Now turn it all around!
The most original, amazing, astounding
Miraculous
Remarkable, startling, sensational
Stupendous music that has ever been created
Is ours - but believe me it was complicated
But we have done it, so now we can breathe
A long awaited sigh of relief
This isn't a publicity stunt
It's the raw, untouched, pure
Hard brand new funk!
(Rock the beat, Rock the beat)
(Rock the beat, Rock the beat)
(Rock the beat, Rock the beat)
Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches
(Rock the beat with your hands)
(Rock the beat, Rock the beat)
(Rock the beat, Rock the beat)
(Rock the beat, Rock the beat)
Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches
Rock the beat with your hands
