Boom blast, 'round the world
And what's the cause, ya dun know
De La Soul is dropping that
Sean Paul, dutty cup

De La Soul, yo, yo
Sean Paul, dutty cup
De La Soul now
Yo, yo, ah, ah
Yo, yo, yo, yo, sh-shoomp
Sh-shoomp, sh-shoomp, sh-shoomp, ayo
Yo, yo, yo, yo

I'm not rehearsed or well versed in politic dissent
I just say what I mean so you know what I meant (nah mean?)
We will not only squint, I'm like Clint
I'm from the east, will you at least acknowledge the print?
Can't front on me dawg, I'm from the office of NY
My cubicle's LI, home of the infamous Ice-T and sullies that roll
Play the DL on the ATL
Get the P for free when in DC (yo, yo)
The ladies love me (for sure)
Peaceful types of thugs bug me (come on)
Come on peace manufacturing and fracturing yah
Next capturing yah
Checked facts will bring yah
I roll with spice every time we up for cookin'
Gourmet plate, the place stay bookin'
But here they steady looking in awe, jaws wide
If they told you any different, believe me they all lies (all lies)
Swallow your pride
'Cause your beef ain't shit at all
There they again, nigga, your love for us soon come like grey hair
Don't be a part of the problem we solvin'
Play like the dog and sit where we sit
Stay there

Yo, yo, so De La Soul
Them ah rock you inna yah mouth
With the lyrical flow
For gettin' you outta control
Technically we ah get dem to soul
Tell all di words, so we big, bad and bold
Yo, De La Soul
Them ah rock you inna yah mouth rock you inna yah mouth
With the lyrical flow
For gettin' you outta control
Technically we ah get dem to soul
De La, De La
De La, De La
De La, De La

Ayo, I'm aiming for this paper
Put my struggles on fry
Fried out of a baby girl and put her on a diet (ha ha ha)
Led riots in Time Square, the time there
Hustle y'all, get money, pay high rent
Spent one tenth of my life in time bent
Back like yo composers, I replied mo' and (uh huh)
Invited her in, for the peak choke and free spoke
Had me thinkin', "Pop, this is the top of the block!"
Mob town, we rock mock, next to just rock
This is federal rap and your mic can get tapped
Fifteen, dealin' on eBay, the menage is next 
Since the two way's been overexposed
Rappers ain't nothin' but advertised hoes
We get checks but we need to get checked
Put the brand X cereal for the C-SPAN
Material is new to me
How we usually, broke?
Poke fun of that, hope we wrote, "Run"
Had her strolling out, like we ain't slip the Con Dom
Ship to (?)
Sippin the condom
Layin' down with Gods
Gon' rip the condom

Yo, yo, so De La Soul
Them ah rock you inna yah mouth
With the lyrical flow
For gettin' dem outta control
Technically we ah get dem to soul
All ah unnu know say we big, bad and bold
De La, De La Soul
Them ah rip inna yah mouth
With the lyrical flow
For gettin' you outta control
Technically we ah get dem to soul
De La, De La
De La, De La
De La, De La
Yo, yo, so De La Soul
Them ah rock you inna yah mouth
With the lyrical flow
For gettin' you outta control
Technically we ah get dem to soul
All ah unnu know say we big, bad and bold
De La, De La Soul
Them ah rip inna yah mouth
With the lyrical flow
For gettin' you outta control
Technically we ah get dem to soul
De La, De La
De La, De La
De La, De La
