2 Live Crew - Boys With Da Bass

Intro: 
(mysterious music) 
`Absolutely no one under 17 will be admitted 
without parent or certified adult guardian.` 
`They`ll fry your brain. They`re sick as hell!` 
`Jolly good fun.` 
`You`ll die dancin`!` 
`Dark, gliding shapes that glide every long inch ... ` 
`Buy `em or die a thousand deaths!` 

Chorus: 
(Heyy!) 
(2 Live Crew) 
(Boys with the bass!) 
(`You better know it!`) 

Verse 1: Fresh Kid Ice 
That`s right y`all, you heard it `cause we said it 
And if you can`t read in the magazines, 
You read about who? You know the Crew! Fresh outta Pac 
And the first to put the bass on the 24-track 
Some said it wouldn`t work, some said it wouldn`t last 
In New York, they say that the tempo`s too fast 
You disregarded, but the albums got charted 
We put `em in the stores and millions habe bought it 
An underground sound, not liked by radio 
You hear it in the cars and at the dicso 
On the airwaves, we misbehave 
We`re too bold, too rugged in our nasty ways 
>From dirty minds come dirty rhymes 
We`re not gonna beg for your time 
You don`t play it? That`s cool with me 
But somehow, our bass still reaches the street 
As long as we got it, you can get it 
People want the bass, so some try to steal it 
From behind our back, and not in our face 
`Cause 2 Live is the Crew, the boys with the bass! 

Chorus 

Verse 2: Brother Marquis 
Holdin` out own in the South-East region 
When you come to the bottom, pledge to our allegiance 
I`m glad to say that we`re the proud owners, 
The rock-and-rollers, you can`t us this over 
The name of the game is supply and demand 
We supply the bass while you demand our jams 
We could not wait to bring our bass to you 
Because in this game, you lag, you lose 
See, we serve our bass raw, straight up and not false 
This is the kind you dance to, and not on 8-Ball 
Plenty of bass, the beat, and the rhyme 
That my homeboy Mr. Mixx carefully designed 
Hittin` hard as hell, and always droppin` 
Bass is the reason why you are rockin` 
When you hear our songs, and you see our face 
Put two and two together; we`re the boys with the bass! 

Chorus 

(`It`s the best in this city!`)
