Get Off The Bandwagon Lyrics

[PMD]
Ayo, what`s up E Double?

[Erick Sermon]
Yo, whole thing man, got a lot of customers out there man, trying
to get paid off what we made.

[PMD]
Ayo, rapping ain`t your field, you took the wrong trade.  So you`d
better get a grip on them lips, and get off the...

[P] Ayo yo yo, I be the P twice E M D
[E] I be the E double E in the place to be
[P] Ayo what up E man, we in there man?
[E] You know we in there, trying to get paid, know what I`m saying?
[P] Yo, we gotta step out hard this year
[E] Pee check this out, this is how it`s going down

[Erick Sermon]
There was a Hardy Boy mystery you were trying to solve
Can`t understand why you got involved
Here`s a clue, try the ghetto master blaster
Now think who causes disaster
Clue number two, you give up?
I figured, it was K La Boss on the cut
He had help, sucker duck, now that`s clue number three
You wrong, cause it was EPMD

[PMD]
MC`s, get off the bandwagon
I`m not bragging, but tagging
And snagging the biter that tries to imitate
Time to go on strike and demonstrate
On the fo, that does not N-O
That if he pulls my card, I`m good to flow
Toe to toe, blow to blow, without H2O
Ayo, you want to battle? I`m good to G-O

 Get off the bandwagon (Repeat 2x)

[Erick Sermon]
This ain`t a blast from the past, it`s a boomer from the future
Feel free to scream "Ho" or "Yo" if it suits you
While the bass is booming and your face is glooming
Saying the E double E is def, you`re not assuming
They`re only one of many that think a jealous fellow
Say "yep" then step cause I`m cooler

[PMD]
Say "Hmmm" now you`re through, you`re how not who
Before I`m gluing that butt like Krazy Glue
I roll into the party as if I was Five-O
Book investigation biters like Columbo
Pushing rap for some info in exchange for a jumbo
And when I find a sucker it`s time to play Rambo
Or play Commando, you know?
I knew it was the sucker with the New Jack-ified afro
We rock rhymes then we we run em a while
Sucker MC`s catch on, then they bite our style
They`re confused, dazed, and amused
Sweating and thing because their rhymes are used
Seen us in the crowd then they own their cost
They run around like a chicken with their heads cut off

 Get off the bandwagon (Repeat 2x)

[Erick Sermon]
While my volume was swaying, you were saying
"Who was that brother?" while the record was playing
I felt kinda happy like an ego trip
I had to laugh cause my energy`s tip
My tradition is dissing in this position
And right about now I`m in perfect condition
And don`t get mad, and don`t stop hissing
Don`t say nothing homeboy just listen

[PMD]
No talk or playing, sucker MC`s I be slaying
Get off the bandwagon, you know what I`m saying?
I devastate the hip-hop scene
Keep the feet moving like a dancing machine
E got my back (yeah) K La Boss on the scratch
You wild on the groove with the beat on wax
I`m in my own world, no room for distraction
Controlling MC`s while La Boss keeps scratching

 Get off the bandwagon (Repeat 2x)
