Simply Lyrics

* send corrections to the typist



[Chorus]

Fear through time, is left behind, when we simply, havin

A wonderful time, a beautiful time, leave the troubles you find at home

Take some time, and ease your mind, when we simply, havin

A wonderful time, a beautiful time, leave the troubles you find at home



[Dave]

Hey, yo last day of spring first day of the heat (heat)

I'm calling out my troops so ya'll best retreat (treat)

Tryin' to win the eyes off of Little Bo Peep

While I'm pushin' Big Bird up Seaseme Street (street)

After one nut I'm goin' straight to sleep (sleep)

If it ain't a love affair, its just a late night creep (creep)

Use Colgate when I'm brushing my teeth (teeth)

Favorite MC's Gregg Nice and Smooth B (B)

Keep it old school like "Where's the beef?" and

If you ain't from an era then you up shit's creek (creek)

First B-side is freedom of speak

If you don't speak, well I ain't losin' no sleep.

See me on the cover of your Double X-L (L)

Takin' a holiday at the hotel (tel)

Fans keep sending me back the fan mail

Heavyweights keep it on th grand scale, when we doin' it.



Chorus (Crowd Cheering and Clapping)



[Pos]

Hey, yo, The sky swallowed the sun

spitted out the moon and stars

Puttin' out shiners that gave the cause

ArmorAll-ed down, the downtown activity

I'm bout to have fun without the problems that live with me

Not tryin' to be posh, but lets stay out the mosh pit

Tonight keep my nose out of trouble

Everybody in my bubble's been breifed:

NO BEEF, JUST PARTY!

Of course your gonna have some clown niggaz try to

take us off course

Always lower levels tryin' to bring out the devil in us

Not condoned but its known

That a party ain't a party if the thugs don't try to shut it down!

Tight security and its still soft

Can't offset the thirty or plus caught in the rush

Keep the door sealed

Cause the floor's filled with action and we don't need

any distractions tonight ya'll.



[Dave]

introduce me to your madaam ?Mauzel?

I'm Tarzan and she's my gazelle

I live at Biggs and say its notorius

Travel through minds, emotions and euphorias

Glorius (echo) as I get great (echo)

Still kinda smooth like way back in my oldschool tapes

I bring it pronto

Rep the BX like Billy Blanco



(Crowd cheering and clapping)



[Pos]

Treat your troubles like colds

Sweat it out, get it out

So we can get in the right mode

Let it out

No need to pull on the throttle

If I could bottle this love I wouldn't hesitate

Get it straight

Wonder why I can medicate the soul

While takin' its toll

Just for Simply (Simply!) Havin'(Havin'!)

The right record that could bring in the pull

And this must be the right run ya'll

Cause the dancefloor's full CUZ!



Chorus to fade (Cheering, Clapping, Horns)
