"Breakdown..."
Round and round, upside down Living my live underneath the ground Never heard of and hardly seen A whole lot of talk about the Red, Black and Green So dirty you didn't wanna deal with it So funky you didn't wanna got with it But that's alright, no problem, cool Sent to the Earth to educate the fool Waiting around for my shell to crack After that you can't hold me back Looking out for the danger signs Jungle Bros bringing forth a change in times Left, right, some ask from which angle Straight up the middle, reality's the riddle Sending a message to the old and young Confused about where I come from What planet? What channel? What station? AfriKa from the Zulu Nation... Confused, no landing, no understanding But I knew not to give what life was demanding Found a new tab, thought I'd take a grab Tired of brothers who feign to backstab Beating a bigger drum, better days will come And if they don't come, I'll get up and make some First you crawl before you walk First you think before you talk I found in life that you wear a hard hat Protect your mind and bad things will stay back Vultures flocking around on corners Snakes slide through our law and order Years slip away and I get older Leaves hit the ground and it gets colder My heart pumps faster so I get bolder That's when I ask my brother to...take over! My mellow, Uncle Sam! (Ladies and gentlemen, live from the Planet Rock we have the J.Beeeeees...) You see some listen but still don't hear Some seem far but are real near I climb a mountain to reach a kingdom And if they're willing, sure I'll bring them Think to the needy and then to the greedy Rely on the heaven and earth to feed me Move to the motions of the moon (Take out your shades!) Cause the sun comes soon To plan my day I look at the sky I see rain and I still ask why... Broke the airwaves, trying to make waves Finally came through but came in mono Frequencies I kept on fighting Satelliting what I was writing Three years, finally got through Came through in stereo... So hello everybody and how ya'll doing? We gonna say a few words and keep on stepping People watching to see what we would do Live on air you heard us say to you: The city's a jungle and we are the brothers This so-called King Of The Jungle will run for cover All of your minds have been set into a trance So instead of fighting out our problems... We order ya'll to dance! |

For yesterday's rain has faded far away Now we seek a brand new day, a brand new way Learn my brothers and sisters, learn (Mike G) Nighttime fades away, on to the next day The weatherman predicts a clear sunny Saturday Relax laid back and feelin the cool breeze Positive vibes in sauce and the melodies Gather my leaves and all my minerals Fix myself a bowl of vegetables Ice cold water and chopped up fruits Gonna be a long day so I throw on my boots Stretch out my hut and beyond the sun rises Clouds gather round and suddenly hides it Doubled back cause it started pourin Children scared of the thunder roarin Given the light but now there's darkness Started with intelligence, now there's ignorance Negative vibes now I don't feel right I want my sunshine, I want my sunlight Same old story, over and over Somebody tryin to take knowledge over So I fight back with a native dance Sing my song and chant my chants |

(feat. Vinia Mojica)
You don't know who you are Look back into your past, brother Look back into your past, sister Look back into your past, sister Look back into your past, brother [Afrika] My forefather was a king He wore fat gold chains and fat ruby rings Nobody believes this to be true Maybe it's because my eyes ain't blue You ain't gonna find it in your history book Come here, young blood, and take a look Dig down deep inside this hard cover Don't you know you was bought, brother All you read about is slavery Never about the black man's bravery You look at the pictures and all they show is Afrikan people with bones in their noses That ain't true, that's a lie You didn't get that from my lemon pie [Mike G] Yeah, I cut class, I got a D Cause History meant nothing to me Except a definite nap That's why I always sat in the back I'd talk to girls or write a rhyme Cause I didn't know (all times are black man's times) When I was young my mama told me stories Of black peoples' fight to bring us glory I used to think these were stories to put me to sleep But now I know mama's talk wasn't cheap I know Afrika's for Afrikans And history's the blood of every woman and man "Now I begin another search, the incredibly involved The incredibly difficult and incredibly frustrating search Trying to pull together the history of a people" [Afrika] Page one, page two, page three And still no signs of me Yeah, so I looked into the table of contents They wrote a little thing about us in the projects Only history we make is if we kill somebody Rape somebody, but other than that we're nobody Speaking like a Brother living in the Jungle I know I was here first but I remain humble [Mike G] Now it's time to rekindle the fire A tribe of young brothers with the eye of the tiger [Afrika] Acknowledge your own, we have a home Put on this earth to live and roam [Mike G] Christopher chose to explore DISCOVERED AMERICA! Yeah, sure [Afrika] He thought the planet was square Travelled many places, we already had been there We left tracks, backtrack back First civilisation, you know where that was found at Looking for the true black days of glory That's history, that's his story [Vinia Mojica x4] The red's for the blood and the black's for the man The green is the colour that stands for the land |

"Just listen, Don't do it, Pay attention, Here we go"
Ahhh! Pleasant day in Egypt, I say Say, what is this? (Afrika) A tisket, a tasket I wonder what's in that basket Sweet Daddy strolled by and said haven't you seen here? That right there is Belly Dancin Dina Now I'm all junglistcally horny Desperate to see this fine young lady Toot, toot, toot, pulled out my flute Yeah, she was so cute I said I like the way you move around Do you wanna get down? I wanted to take her home with me Behind the bush and up my tree So I blowed and blowed and I kept on blowing Hey, wait a minute, baby! Where you going? (Mike G) Dina! Never should have seen her Hooked by her look now I feel like I need her Body so pure, she's shaped like an hourglass As I turned around I peeped out her megablast I needed acquaintance cause I had no patience Drugged (by her bellybutton?) no, by her radiance The hips did dips so I did flips The pucker of her lips could sink battleships The basket's glowing from the diamonds' glitter If I only had it in me to go get with her The moment I got it I needed a casket Cause she blew me a kiss and jumped back in the basket (Hook) Belly Dancin Dina! Boy, you should have seen her The way she moved her body All across the dance floor Tore me all apart, straight to my heart And it was nothing but a freaky art (Kool DJ Red Alert) Live from 113th Street and Seventh Avenue Straight out the pyramid, we gon bring to you The live one they call Belly Dancin Dina! (Afrika) Well, today's the day, hooray hooray Yippee yie yo, yippee yie yie yay Everybody's waiting for her to arrive Oooh, she makes my nature rise All dressed up in her sparkling clothing I might pass out when that basket opens Ordinarily I'm not the kind who fiends Could it be her cute little finger tambourines? I don't know but it's making me hard (How hard?) Harder by the yard Thousands of brothers had congregated Stone boom, waited and waited They came in peace, they paid their funds (Kool DJ Red Alert) OK, Y'ALL HERE SHE COMES! (Mike G) I've got to go get her (Word?) And if you got bananas I'll be glad to betcha Push back my chair to walk across the floor As I got closer her body shook more My eyes were set on her jelly-like belly And if I'm dreaming don't nobody tell me People started standing, I started losing sight And I was really feeling like this was my night I dipped to one side and then to another Ahh, I see Dina! Oooh, my brother I made a quick to dash to put my hands on Poof! Dina was gone... (Afrika) And when she disappeared to no one knows All she left behind were her silky clothes Smelled the smell of her sweet perfume Heard a voice say: "I'll be back real soon" Say, say, where you going? (Hook) Belly Dancin Dina! Boy, you should have seen her The way she moved her body All across the dance floor Tore me all apart, straight to my heart And it was nothing but a freaky art |

(yeah, son) Don't be mad, be glad I missed the plane, I'm staying With the brothers jungle, soul, and the tribe I'm saying Funky funky rhymes that always stay in swing I believe we doing our own thing We're doing our own thang (repeat 4x) [afrika] Well my family sets all the trends From soul to soul, large to loose ends ? and I all my groups like kill? (cause that's where the money's at) Yeah, the industry's filled with copycats R&b mixed with sloppy raps Tribes like us always open doors But what for, so you can get yours? You ain't in to it, all you want is profit So I ask you please to stop it Leave me alone, get off my bone Cause I'm doing my own... [mike g] A new seed, a new breed A new man you to feed the greed A new pair of boots for a new piece of butt Sweet daddy are you there? (sammy b is on the cut!) Spinning back for a rap that's laid back Read to kic back, those get no slack I may rock a rhyme or I may start to sing But still, I'm doing my own thing [dove] In comes the mood of jungle and daisies Play the same and let the vibes grace me All hold hands and let's walk about And form a cirlce and talk about Don't follow the path that we're stepping Truth to the soul is what I'm cramming Reasons for this is that the family's strong And like bob marley said we're jammin Seeing is beliving, so see and believe And let the groove of the new proceed A whole bunch of love, peace signs, and fun So let's do what's got to be done, you know? |

[Mike G] Lace up a fattie of the greenery, bounce and check the scenery Anticipation of the raw fills up the whole vicinity Legendary quotes from promissory notes Authentic fatigues wrapped around your throat Coming hitting like a hammer My overuse of truthful grammar might send me to the slammer So I got my alibi, so if the DA try to make me fry I'll poke him in his eye with a who, what, when and why Oh no, not I, done hit you up with the jimmy so now identify Cause whether dollars or yens, the 5-ohs always want to apprehend A brother for doing his thing [Afrika] A yo! Hotshots rock spots and smoke chocolate thai Talking about getting money till the day they die Make money money, make money money money Take money money, take money money money! Suit getting chunky, well you see my pockets' fat Enough to go around ten times and come back Be the A double B on the thousand G bill Circle it around from Brooklyn to Castle Hill Right from the getty we caught bank from the piggy Cause we give it to you raw down to the nitty-gritty People acting shitty when they see me counting fifties Buying new sneakers, "Yo, son! Where'd you get these?!" [Mike G] Brush off the comp like lint after the hit No one's seen the brothers with the three shades of tint Only a sign they're in like Flynt and haven't reached the extent We use the brain as the furnace and the mouth as the vent From the set off we jump on the mic and go get off Versatile styles bursting back and forth From the dealers and shakers, we fill the rhymes pages To catch them papers we're back with flavours [Afrika] Kick the lotto, that's my motto, stash the loot in the bottle Fill my tank up with gas and then hit the throttle Me and Mike G lamping like Lamar and Rollo Rocking the mic, ripping shit at the Apollo Check the promoter for my quota Money quench my thirst like Dr Pepper soda [Mike G] Recognise by the 'G' at the end of the name The aroma in the air when I spark a new flame It was the DJs in the park that put a start to the game That's what made me grab the mic and go seek fame And put a shame to the emcees with styles too lame For the treasures I lust but I fall short of, In God We Trust But I learned that doesn't mean they can't be touched Just if you're too slow then you might get crushed Or bite the dust, bite the dust, bite the dust [Afrika] Mega bucks in armoured trucks falling out the sky "I'll be getting money till the day that I die" [Mike G] You ask why we stay fly "I'll be getting money till the day that I die" [repeat to fade] |

Now from A Tribe Called Quest
And i'm here tonight with The Jungle Brothers And we're about to get into this thing called Black is Black is Black is Black Yeah, uh-huh! aah, baby! Said yeah! ah hah! Black is Black is Black is Black In America today, i have to regret to say Something, Something is not right And it deals with Black and White Tell me Mike G is it me? Nah, it's just society Filled with propagander, Huh! Why do we meander, Huh? In a zone with hate for peace All of this B.S must cease All i am is one Black man In a mighty big White hand Brother Brother, Sister Sister If you're Miss or if you're Mister Listen please to this fact Black is Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Way back when in '68 When brothers didn't have it great They fought back with civil rights That scarred the soul, it took the sight The common foe you plainly see On the streets or on T.V Segregation was the king Vietnam was full in swing Martin Luther had to shout "Let's get out, get out, get out!" The situation sort of changed But what really makes matters strange Is our foe is well disguised We don't know where our fate lies Still and all we cannot lack The fact that Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Judged by both my race and colour Don't you know we need each other? I need you and you need me And if not now you soon will see My light complexion has no meaning If you think so you're still dreaming Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up There's no time for us to break up Black is Black not Blue or Purple Being Black is like a circle Round and round we all will go Where we end up i don't know Listen to me if you will Your fantasies will get you killed Reality is what is real Reality is Black is Black I try, try to tell my people We all are one, created equal Before we master, we must plan Is that so hard to understand? Today's the day we get together To try to change and make things better If not where will we be tomorrow? Drowning in the pool of sorrow Daylight shines but still few see That we must fight for unity In a picture that's fixed as Black and White Why's it both that have to fight? Uplift the race, uplift the race See my soul and not my face All for one and one for all Black is Black, That's right y'all |

I know what you're saying. {chorus} (I can't stop) Cause I'm (On the Run) (I can't stop) Cause I'm, cause I'm, cause I'm, cause I'm (On the run) {end of chorus} Some people say that I'm living inside the fast lane. Some people say that I'm going insane. Yesterday, I called my mother up on the phone. (hello?) She said, "Son when are you coming home? How many places do you have to go? Tell me please 'cause I'd like to know." I haven't seen my brothers in a year or two. They're anxious to know what I'm going through. My father wants 'em to know how I'm taking care of myself. He hasn't seen me since December 12th. My grandmother hasn't seen me since the eighth, and she wants to know if I'm keeping the faith. Nanny, Nanny, Granny, Granny, Please don't hit me on my fanny. Tell Grandpa that I said Hi, I gotta go, see ya later, good bye. {chorus} Stop! Hold it! Freeze! Now! Uh-huh, oh yeah. . . I'm gonna get cha. . . No time to waste, no time to spare Just enough time to comb my hair. Get myself dressed and on the run. You're anti us and into sun.

It's a part of making money for my dinner at night. I tried to tell her she's ~Hold it! Hold it! Hold up, Cops coming buddy. Come on man! Tried to tell her it's a jungle thing, I'm a jungle man, I got to swing. ~Come on, yo Sam start the car. ~We out of here. (On the run) (Watch me now, on the run, watch me now)(x5) |

(Run along) I write rhymes like I come from New York City. My Dj spin the music down to the nitty gritty. When the downstairs funky five days a week. Searching and seeking for the Baby Bam beat. The Afrikan rap that comes from within us. Brothers heard about it now they wish they could've been us. We did an album with no problem. No we working on another with another Jungle Brother. (Me) Q-tip, his name, he's into business, not into games So Q-tip when the light turns green, grab your bone and show them what I mean. My bone is grabbed, this is what I mean. I brag a grab, and here's the scene. Q-tip, (Q-tip) from a Tribe Called Quest, Saw the Jungle Brother's album, oh yes. So get the ducats it's coming out soon. A month after March, two before June, It's nice. With Ali Shaheed Mohammed, my Dj who Is real dominant. (Mohammed, Mohammed) He and I form the funky Tribe. If you want to get with it, just feel the vibe. (Feel the vibe) Me and Ali are extremely radiant. And to be heard like the horn of Gideon. Get it? If not you're a goner. Get wise or get something, cause your going to want to. Lamp, after you hear from me. The Tip from Quest my Dj's Ali. Say it from the Catskills, to the Soho. Listen to the words they say on the Promo. To the bewildered, Let it be said. I'll mix you up more like DJ Red So Mike G, when the light turns red, Don't stop, proceed ahead. Go on with your, Go on with your, Go on with your, Bad self. Well, I'm going (Where?) Straight to the treetop. Eating crazy fruit, so I can't stop. Squating here, listen to the LP. Straight Out The Jungle from the JBs. Baby Bam beat keeps the bass bottom bouncing. Suckers littering, girls ouncing, Women inching, girls pinching. Run to the record store to see if (???) is in. Remixes, outfixes, we write it, you like it. Rap music, house music. No matter what it is, the JBs can do it. Oh ya, (etc.) It's coming (x4) How much is it? 5.99? ahh just bring a 20, bring a twenty. At the sound of the ring The Promo will end, peace. |

"I'll be getting money till the day that I die"
[Mike G] Lace up a fattie of the greenery, bounce and check the scenery Anticipation of the raw fills up the whole vicinity Legendary quotes from promissory notes Authentic fatigues wrapped around your throat Coming hitting like a hammer My overuse of truthful grammar might send me to the slammer So I got my alibi, so if the DA try to make me fry I'll poke him in his eye with a who, what, when and why Oh no, not I, done hit you up with the jimmy so now identify Cause whether dollars or yens, the 5-ohs always want to apprehend A brother for doing his thing [Afrika] A yo! Hotshots rock spots and smoke chocolate thai Talking about getting money till the day they die Make money money, make money money money Take money money, take money money money! Suit getting chunky, well you see my pockets' fat Enough to go around ten times and come back Be the A double B on the thousand G bill Circle it around from Brooklyn to Castle Hill Right from the getty we caught bank from the piggy Cause we give it to you raw down to the nitty-gritty People acting shitty when they see me counting fifties Buying new sneakers, "Yo, son! Where'd you get these?!" [Mike G] Brush off the comp like lint after the hit No one's seen the brothers with the three shades of tint Only a sign they're in like Flynt and haven't reached the extent We use the brain as the furnace and the mouth as the vent From the set off we jump on the mic and go get off Versatile styles bursting back and forth From the dealers and shakers, we fill the rhymes pages To catch them papers we're back with flavours [Afrika] Kick the lotto, that's my motto, stash the loot in the bottle Fill my tank up with gas and then hit the throttle Me and Mike G lamping like Lamar and Rollo Rocking the mic, ripping shit at the Apollo Check the promoter for my quota Money quench my thirst like Dr Pepper soda [Mike G] Recognise by the 'G' at the end of the name The aroma in the air when I spark a new flame It was the DJs in the park that put a start to the game That's what made me grab the mic and go seek fame And put a shame to the emcees with styles too lame For the treasures I lust but I fall short of, In God We Trust But I learned that doesn't mean they can't be touched Just if you're too slow then you might get crushed Or bite the dust, bite the dust, bite the dust [Afrika] Mega bucks in armoured trucks falling out the sky "I'll be getting money till the day that I die" [Mike G] You ask why we stay fly "I'll be getting money till the day that I die" [repeat to fade] |

Now from A Tribe Called Quest
And i'm here tonight with The Jungle Brothers And we're about to get into this thing called Black is Black is Black is Black Yeah, uh-huh! aah, baby! Said yeah! ah hah! Black is Black is Black is Black In America today, i have to regret to say Something, Something is not right And it deals with Black and White Tell me Mike G is it me? Nah, it's just society Filled with propagander, Huh! Why do we meander, Huh? In a zone with hate for peace All of this B.S must cease All i am is one Black man In a mighty big White hand Brother Brother, Sister Sister If you're Miss or if you're Mister Listen please to this fact Black is Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Way back when in '68 When brothers didn't have it great They fought back with civil rights That scarred the soul, it took the sight The common foe you plainly see On the streets or on T.V Segregation was the king Vietnam was full in swing Martin Luther had to shout "Let's get out, get out, get out!" The situation sort of changed But what really makes matters strange Is our foe is well disguised We don't know where our fate lies Still and all we cannot lack The fact that Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Black is Black is Black is Black Judged by both my race and colour Don't you know we need each other? I need you and you need me And if not now you soon will see My light complexion has no meaning If you think so you're still dreaming Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up There's no time for us to break up Black is Black not Blue or Purple Being Black is like a circle Round and round we all will go Where we end up i don't know Listen to me if you will Your fantasies will get you killed Reality is what is real Reality is Black is Black I try, try to tell my people We all are one, created equal Before we master, we must plan Is that so hard to understand? Today's the day we get together To try to change and make things better If not where will we be tomorrow? Drowning in the pool of sorrow Daylight shines but still few see That we must fight for unity In a picture that's fixed as Black and White Why's it both that have to fight? Uplift the race, uplift the race See my soul and not my face All for one and one for all Black is Black, That's right y'all |

JBeez on the Run, JBeez on the run.(x2) Come on Oh, I run so much, you would think I'm a bandit. (Why?) You know why because I keep standing at it. Move so much, I often lose my shadow. Don't know where, but I know I got to go. Meet somebody at a quarter to eight. I'm a Scooby Do so I don't be late. If I take my vine, I'll make it on time, and if not, they'll be on my behind. I get there late, but better later than never. And when I get there, whatever is clever. I won't be stopped by a chick or a cop You know what I'm saying? I know what you're saying. {chorus} (I can't stop) Cause I'm (On the Run) (I can't stop) Cause I'm, cause I'm, cause I'm, cause I'm (On the run) {end of chorus} Some people say that I'm living inside the fast lane. Some people say that I'm going insane. Yesterday, I called my mother up on the phone. (hello?) She said, "Son when are you coming home? How many places do you have to go? Tell me please 'cause I'd like to know." I haven't seen my brothers in a year or two. They're anxious to know what I'm going through. My father wants 'em to know how I'm taking care of myself. He hasn't seen me since December 12th. My grandmother hasn't seen me since the eighth, and she wants to know if I'm keeping the faith. Nanny, Nanny, Granny, Granny, Please don't hit me on my fanny. Tell Grandpa that I said Hi, I gotta go, see ya later, good bye. {chorus} Stop! Hold it! Freeze! Now! Uh-huh, oh yeah. . . I'm gonna get cha. . . No time to waste, no time to spare Just enough time to comb my hair. Get myself dressed and on the run. You're anti us and into sun. Ride the vine and drink to tree In and out of every part of New York City Kangaroos on my tail, but that's ok. I'm doing 90 and a great ok Working at a job that never gets done.

It's a part of making money for my dinner at night. I tried to tell her she's ~Hold it! Hold it! Hold up, Cops coming buddy. Come on man! Tried to tell her it's a jungle thing, I'm a jungle man, I got to swing. ~Come on, yo Sam start the car. ~We out of here. (On the run) (Watch me now, on the run, watch me now)(x5) |

(Word up)
Jungle Brother, JB for short. A bite a bit my rhyme and we almost fort. But since he was a brother I thought that'd be wrong. So I let him go, I let him run along. (Run along) I write rhymes like I come from New York City. My Dj spin the music down to the nitty gritty. When the downstairs funky five days a week. Searching and seeking for the Baby Bam beat. The Afrikan rap that comes from within us. Brothers heard about it now they wish they could've been us. We did an album with no problem. No we working on another with another Jungle Brother. (Me) Q-tip, his name, he's into business, not into games So Q-tip when the light turns green, grab your bone and show them what I mean. My bone is grabbed, this is what I mean. I brag a grab, and here's the scene. Q-tip, (Q-tip) from a Tribe Called Quest, Saw the Jungle Brother's album, oh yes. So get the ducats it's coming out soon. A month after March, two before June, It's nice. With Ali Shaheed Mohammed, my Dj who Is real dominant. (Mohammed, Mohammed) He and I form the funky Tribe. If you want to get with it, just feel the vibe. (Feel the vibe) Me and Ali are extremely radiant. And to be heard like the horn of Gideon. Get it? If not you're a goner. Get wise or get something, cause your going to want to. Lamp, after you hear from me. The Tip from Quest my Dj's Ali. Say it from the Catskills, to the Soho. Listen to the words they say on the Promo. To the bewildered, Let it be said. I'll mix you up more like DJ Red So Mike G, when the light turns red, Don't stop, proceed ahead. Go on with your, Go on with your, Go on with your, Bad self. Well, I'm going (Where?) Straight to the treetop. Eating crazy fruit, so I can't stop. Squating here, listen to the LP. Straight Out The Jungle from the JBs. Baby Bam beat keeps the bass bottom bouncing. Suckers littering, girls ouncing, Women inching, girls pinching. Run to the record store to see if (???) is in. Remixes, outfixes, we write it, you like it. Rap music, house music. No matter what it is, the JBs can do it. Oh ya, (etc.) It's coming (x4) How much is it? 5.99? ahh just bring a 20, bring a twenty. At the sound of the ring The Promo will end, peace. |
