Epmd Hittin` Switches Lyrics

Hittin` Switches Lyrics

[Shadz of Lingo]
 Yeah, this is Colorado from Shadz of Lingo
 Kickin it with the Funklord himself, E Double
 Hittin` switches, and we bout to get stupid
 So you know, yo E, check it

[Erick Sermon]
Ah yeah one two, hey young world, hey young world {"It`s on!"}
Mic check, here I go again, check me out
Bust the flavor {"heYYYYYyyyy"} you know my clout
Rough and rugged -- funk`s the contact I hit you with
to make your head split, trip and do a backflip
I swing it hardcore like an orangutang
I bring it wicked, and freak the funk slang
like god damn, yea dude gnarly, f**kin A
I don`t Play-Doh, my nickname ain`t Clay
It`s the E Double, mackaframa, bust the grammar
My style is sickening, like Roseanne-ah
Plus, I`m funky like _Atomic Dog_
Boy you can`t see me, I`m thicker than fog, so
save that drama, here`s a floppy disk don`t risk it
Boo-yaa, that`s my biscuit!
On the mic, I cover every angle
A square, tri-part to a rectangle
I mean dat wit a passion, so be it
When I rock the mic it`s worth seein
So cop a squad and parlay bit*h
with the E-R-I-C-K, while I`m hittin` switches

Chorus: Erick Sermon (repeat 2X)

 Off and on, off and on, it`s on (4X)
Hittin` switches!

[Erick Sermon]
Ah shit, it`s part two, it`s on with the funk so
RING THE ALARM, ding!  While I drop the bomb
on the country, E`s gettin funky word to mother
I smother, any emcee or so-called brother
Why?  I gets busy, who the hell is he?
The roughneck from New York City
You wanna mess around with the ill bastard
then get your as* kicked, messin with the click
Def Squad, now on location, with the funky sensation
You wanna step you must be freebasin
Punk, why you playin, you bored?
You can`t afford, to get choked by the mic cord
I keep you drunk like whiskey, solve the mystery
ummmm, without Agatha Christie (there we go)
You think you know _What`s Going On_
without Marvin Gaye around, c`mon let`s get down
I spark your brain with all funk material
And gettin wicked, and let Wilson Pickett
Before I break, let me announce - get the bozack
Now we all can bounce, as I`m hittin` switches

Chorus

[Erick Sermon]
(Switch) Back in effect mode, droppin loads
Watch me explode with the devil in me like crossroads
and ding-a-ling-a-ling with the guitar, freak the funk speech
Make the contact strong as bleach
Rock the mic make the vibes right, and plus dy-no-mite
so I can fly high like Mike and "Just Do It"
And get freaky-deaky on the real, grab the steel
in case there`s caps to peel
In the mix, when I flex the context, beware
like when you`re havin safe sex
I continue to get brand new, one two
My mic held tight, so I can recite the hype
and get busy, my name is Erick Sermon
Back for the Adventure, without Pee-Wee Herman
For those who don`t know, don`t act suspicious
while I`m hittin` switches

Chorus
