Burning Hot In Cali On A Saturday Night Lyrics
LATEEF: I just / jump outta bed and make my way to the sprinkler / let
the water wash over my soul from thinker to toe / take a leak and then I
lean over the sink brushing the teeth / and now I'm in full swing of the
morning ritual / mumbling the whole rhyme and re rehearsing my lines /
hummin' tunes on solo so the voice is prime and ready / steady as a photo
through the course of time / then I pick out a fit of the proper design /
I'm dipped fresh like pine yall / that's just in case I get any vaginal
/ action in the place / gotta be sure that the homies get a taste of
the flavor / I double check and make sure the family got the date / the
where, when, and how, everthing checked out / super-tight within the
SoleSides circle of power / but now, where the fuck is X? / he's supposed ta
had been here an hour ago / shit, no trip, I kick a dope freestyle though /
take a moment out and give praise and thanks / and I'm thinking 'bout how
the Quannum gone have the shit crankin' / in a minute no gimmicks, just
hyped from the start to finish / wonderous night, beats thunderous, us
lightin' up. / 1st Chorus: LATEEF AND THE GIFT OF GAB: Yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah hella times /THE GIFT OF GAB: I went to sleep last night
watching showtime at the Apollo /like a youngun on the night before Xmas
watching the stockings / go 'round in a dingling and dance over their heads
/ although it wasn't Xmas stockings it was microphones instead /above
my headrest. / Woke up ate my breakfast, checked off my checklist, called
Jeff / just to quest if the guest list was just as requested, yes it
was ex-cellent, definately we'll bless this, / venue tonight allright, I
gotta get hyped, midnight is when we go on... / go through my lines a couple
of times / just to make sure they're sounding tight. / Had some clothes
to wash, I threw 'um in the washing cycle / blew my nose and flossed
and brushed. / Jumped in the shower, jumped out to get dressed / I'm on
some NFL sike shit, they'll bear witness. / I'm leaving sound check a mess
at six, I give a call to X, / "man let's get to rounding up the caravan."
/ It's a gonna be another one of those nights, the horn / is blowin
Lyrics Born and Lateef are already in the car with Chief / and we about to
strike tonight, shine like litebrights, / quite the hype type, Quannum is
that abominable shit you like / your listening pleasure / I hope they
treasure / the endeavor / like something they never / saw or will ever / see
together / that was so clever and write me letters / sayin' their head hurts
/ from the pressure / on their mental, although they felt as though they
left a better person! 2nd Chorus: LATEEF, THE GIFT OF GAB AND LYRICS BORN:
more and more yeahs and stuff like that / LYRICS BORN: Oh if you only knew
how it feels doin' shows on the road or at home with your crew, / In the
brown Jetta, / Due for the sound check soon, / Townsend had fell through,
DNA Lounge? / Oooh god, I feel sorry for that poor retard, / Whose
gonna coordinate reordering the parts, / When the SoleSides guys bogart
the stage, / They got no regard, / The place is torn apart! / That's
the mindset going over the bridge, / Average speed we did was
about seven-fifth, / We was led by a Saturday night western wind flowing
through the cockpit, / We're ready for soundcheck--or the gig, / Whichever
begins first it doesn't matter, / Dinner is dessert, and hors d'oveures ,
and it serves amateurs, / And at first Xcel sets up the SL 12 huns, / And
we've huddled and exchanged three rounds freestyle each, / X cues the
records and a couple heavy mettlers set up, / Three bottles of effervescent
beverages, / And the end is eminent and Quannum's in the house, / We 'bout
to give you muthafuckas hemorrhages.
