Beastie Boys Right Right Now Now Lyrics

Right Right Now Now Lyrics

Now get busy



Now once upon a time up on this mic

MC's be really workin' on what they write

With the sound delight we rock all night

And yes, we're gonna party for the right to fight



We're international like Matt Takei

Rock the mic from Munich out to Taipei

Still around the way is where we'll stay

Say what we mean, mean what we say



Trajectories from the past are takin' their toll and

What we do now is future mouldin'

Columbine bowlin', childhood stolen

We need a bit more gun controllin'



Right now

What is goin' on?

We gotta get it goin' on

Before it's too far gone

We gotta work together, it's been too long



When I get on you scream, "Hoo Tight!"

Rockin' this flow I could go all night

I'm not here to fight or incite

I'm like the beach in the Bahamas make you feel alright



I'm getting kind of tired of the situation

The US attackin' other nations

And narration on every station

False election's got me losing my patience



I'm a funky-ass Jew and I'm on my way

And yes, I got to say, "Fuck the KKK"

And oh yeah hey, how about today?

If you want to set it off then let me hear you say



Right now

What is goin' on?

We gotta get it goin' on

Before it's too far gone

We gotta work together, it's been too long



I went to get a loan and they asked my race

I wrote down human inside the space

It's a disgrace how they try to debase

It ain't the bank's damn business how my lineage trace



Now let me drop a verse that's terse and concise

I'm an iron chef when I slice and dice

With the rhyme precise, the word is nice

So please pass me the reunite on ice



Well, let's go to work and not beserk

'Cause when the time comes the body goes to dirt

Try to smooth it out like Levert

Keep the mind alert and not revert



Right now

What is goin' on?

We gotta get it goin' on

Before it's too far gone

We gotta work together, it's been too long
