How shall I rock thee? 
Let me count the ways 

(1, 2, 3, 4 hit it) 
The bass is thumpin' the party is jumpin' 
I got the rhymes to keep your body pumpin' 
To keep you rockin' that's what I intend ta 
This ain't number one on the Sweet Tee agenda 
I'm gonna break it down so you can see 
The skillfull way I recite my poetry 
Quick as a flash I'll pop upon the scene 
Break out the Casio and the drum machine 
Got to get busy, cause I know I'm down 
As I tap into my instruments this funky sound 
Prone to make your body start to perspire 
As I turn the volume up higher and higher 
Grab my JVC, pop in a cassette 
Have the people stompin' to my beat, you bet 
Play it for my friends cause it sounds so neat 
And they ask (What do you call it?) It's My Beat 
(Ha, what?) It's My Beat 
It's my beat 

So take a minute and wipe your sweat 
But don't lose your tissue, cause I'm not done yet 
I'll jump on the stage, the crowd will come swarm in 
And through the bass bottoms my beat'll come stormin' 
In, like a beast, breakin' out of his cage 
Pursuin' eardrums with a deadly rage 
Cold kickin' ass, a blast from the past 
First in line, all you weak ones are last 
I'm simply novelist to say the least 
And if I want to be conceited, I'll hear myself, chief 
Ace lady rapper, cold queen of hip-hop 
Have the people screamin' (Sweet Tee, don't stop) 
Just gettin' busy, I'm tellin' you, baby 
Take it as a promise, no ifs, ands, or maybes 
Totally convinced, I wouldn't call it conceit 
But I'm Sweet Tee and it's my beat 

I'm the entrepreneur of the hip-hop decor 
Have you people rampagin' and hit the dancefloor 
Freak to my melody, get hip to my beat 
As I display my rhymes so viciously, see 
Eh, I'm on the top, number one, yes uno 
Don't play stupid, cause I know that you know 
So go take the chance cause you don't want to miss 
Jazzy Joyce on the mix, rock my funky beat, bust this 
(It's in my shape 
About to work me to death) 
My beat is rough, but yet it's so tender 
Do the right thing, party people, surrender 
Go with the flow, cause I want you to know 
That the lady Sweet Tee is runnin' this here show 
Ain't nothin' to it but to go ahead and do it 
Don't need a pair of sneakers to run right through it 
Situation's stable, no question about it 
Me get rocked by who? I doubt it 
I'm only gonna tell you once, dog on it 
Do yourself a favor and g- g- get on it 
Super high post, I catch the beat with ease 
Demolishin' rappers while I'm shootin' the breeze 
So be on the look-out, Sweet Tee's comin'
Fast with the rhymes and twice as stunnin' 
Make my day and you face defeat 
Cause I'm Sweet Tee and it's my beat 

(1-2-3-4 hit it) 
Due to circumstances you'll have to be aware 
That Sweet Tee and Jazzy Joyce are definitely here 
To stay on the top, right where we belong 
And if you think we can be taken, I'm sorry, you're wrong 
Quite confidentially I'm well aware 
That I'm talkin' out my face, but I just don't care 
Cause we're the ultimate, on the top, can't you see 
You better never ever sleep on Jazzy Joyce and Sweet Tee 
Jazzy Joyce (On the wheels) Jazzy Joyce (No one better) 
Jazzy Joyce (Speedin' faster than a '86 Jetta) 
Cold bloody terrorizin', baby, that you can bet 
(And if you battle me, never let me see you sweat) 
Yo, put on your glasses, so that you can see 
That's right, it's all about Jazzy Joyce and Sweet Tee 
Now you know about us, my voice real clear 
Peace out, yo, be easy, Jazzy Joyce, we're outta here
