MEGABLAST RAP (Version):

This is a dance tune, get up and drop to it
Do the Biz Markie, boogie or rock to it
There ain't nothin' that you can't do, so
Go slam your door and turn up your radio
... you get hot, this song drives
Street through the speaker, brings you alive
Any dance music, that's good, we use it
Put it through our sampler, then we confuse it
Megablast is a rhythmical move
Aggravated by the ... and a rude def groove
Hardcore B-boy, rhyme around and over a tune
If you hear the force of megablast invadin' your bedroom
You'll be amazed as it blares through your window
Tune is megablastin' to the sound of the ghetto
Bring along a drink if you begin to ...
Consideration to the music, then it ...
Sucker, your best move, this music don't soothe
Usin' a mixer, you're bringin' the rare groove
Non stop energy, that's the true goal
... and in come the ghetto
This beats for all, we gave you a chance
And now I'm givin' you an order, boy, dance
Any def track we like, we use it
Bring together our ideas to make music
Music with an energy, beats that stick
So put on the dancing shoes, brush on the lipstick
We're gonna jam to the highest class
What's the name of the jam? It's a megablast
It's a megablast

Bam goes the tune, gotta increase the volume
Speaker getting weaker, everybody gotta consume
Lyrical content with musical intent
That, another brother said, the word cannot invent
Percussion and rhyme will fit in accord
Original computer, controlled through the keyboard
Song may change, this groove, and not knowin'
You might stop while the beat's still goin'
On until the break of dawn, mega is blarin' it
And when the tune's gone, you're still hearin' it
Deep inside your brain megablast will remain
Causin' you to dance, never, ever too afraid
>From bein' a dancer, 'cause dance, you have to
Man, you're a freak, no longer a statue
Rockin' in the nightclub, spinnin' in a disco
Playin' in the bathtub, bustin' in the ghetto
Brand new style, let it rock you
You say don't wanna dance, but you got to
Slave to the rhythm on the dancefloor, get
And don't stop 'til you're pushin' sweat
'Cause I do believe that if you play a def groove
It's guaranteed to make your party move
So I roll the rhyme slowly at my own pace
Hit the studio with Bomb The Bass

Locked in a sound room, facin' a microphone
Waitin' for the volume to bust through the headphones
Said they need a funky sound, so I brought it
And as that sound comes through, they record it
Pressin' the next beat, ...
A vibe be the flame, the lyrics are burning
Let us advance, blow the amplifier
Bomb The Bass with the new rap messiah
Merlin's exciting, thunder and lightning
Beats are for music and rhymes are for writing
I am a slave, a prisoner, a captor too
Megablast sends a burst through the chapter
Dance, boy, and you better dance fast
M. E. G. A. Blast
M. E. G. A. Blast
Children wore energy on the streets
Beats from old and past
Combine together to make this beat
Anything that moves, it does, then you do it
When you feel a different vibe, then pursue it
Top class, rhyme fast, ...
Face the bass, homeboy, it's a megablast

Last paragraph that's cold, get busy
Hold on tight, don't stop 'til you're dizzy
Ladies dance, homeboys bust it
Any other dance track played, cuss it
'Cause it's the melody, better beware
Dance track of the year, it's a killer idea
Back, the rhyme get worse, a curse
Dance 'til you reach your peak, then burst
Like a balloon, transformin' the room
Into a live hot jam, boy, and soon
As the mic release me, finish rockin' hardcore
Rewind the record while I rock the dancefloor
Bass complements my voice
If the M was a car, I'd be a Rolls Royce
Gotta dance 'til the drop, and your legs are bending
Open your brain, for the record's ending
It may stop soon, but can you last, it's fast ...
Hey, yo, it's a megablast
It's a megablast
It's a megablast


ON THE CUT

DON'T MAKE ME WAIT

Don't make me wait

With your body so close to mine
Is there anything I need to know?
'Cause when I feel oh, so warm inside
Is that love that you, I need to show

I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright
I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright

Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love

With your heartbeat so close to mine
I begin to feel my passion grow
A new love is so hard to find
So why won't you be my Romeo?

I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright
I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright

Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love

Kid Dynamite, come on, break it down

Give a little time, baby, and you'll be mine
I know you'll be mine

Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love

Come on, baby, come on, baby
Come on, baby, now

     Please don't make me wait
Baby, don't make me wait
     Oh, it's not too late
Don't let me stay in and out of love
     Just gimme a little time
Baby, don't make me wait
     And, baby, you'll be mine
Don't let me stay in and out of love

Baby, don't make me wait
     You know, you gotta surrender, surrender
Don't let me stay in and out of love
     Come on, baby
Baby, don't make me wait
     Drive me crazy
Don't let me stay in and out of love
     Yeah, yeah

MEGABLAST (HIP HOP ON PRECINCT 13)

   ---Instrumental---


HEY YOU!

Hey, people out there, not to go home yet
I wanna see those moves, I wanna see those steps
Until that, when you perform, others are torn
And that's a reputation that's all gone
All you boys, make some noise, put your hands in the air
Alright, attracts like a magnet, I got lyrical flair
Engineer as I'm goin' ... is gettin' higher
Ignitin' with my words, time ... choir
'Cause I mix the sound, the crowd makes the noise
I hold the microphone, the music is yours
In mid dancin', doin' the biz
What you tell me to do is...

All you girls, raise the level, shout as loud as you can
And the droppin' seed now, the girls, the powers, the plan
A strong into the boys, our dance moves does amaze
It's not a quick step jump, creates a different phase
'Cause I mix the sound, the crowd makes the noise
I hold the microphone, the music is yours
In mid dancin', doin' the biz
What you tell me to do is...
Breakin' down new trend, a trend that you set
Your party with a feel, your party strong as steel
You got that? Raw ... goes on and on
A few try to match the moves, interpretation's all wrong
All you boys, once again, let me hear you say "Oh"
Always got what it takes, and now I won't let go
Decibel how it bubbles, you buzz is gettin' higher
Connection with your moves, the muscles gettin' tighter
'Cause I mix the sound, the crowd makes the noise
I hold the microphone, the music is yours
In mid dancin', doin' the biz
What you tell me to do is...

All you girls, once again, let me hear you scream
Always got what it takes, the most magical scene
The sight is so damn right, the floor is never still
>From the morning to night, participate if you will
'Cause I mix the sound, the crowd makes the noise
I hold the microphone, the music is yours
In mid dancin', doin' the biz
What you tell me to do is...

You ... in a jam, and we are in control
To the way you rock and to the way you roll
The party's dancin' and ... trainers are worn
Well and truly instep, definately in form
'Cause I mix the sound, the crowd makes the noise
I hold the microphone, the music is yours
In mid dancin', doin' the biz
What you tell me to do is...

You may be young or old, the limit's ten years old
Me, I move with care, I have that certain air
I tend to move like a bird, but not on the ...
You wanna follow in step, bitch, what you deserve
'Cause I mix the sound, the crowd makes the noise
I hold the microphone, the music is yours
In mid dancin', doin' the biz
What you tell me to do is...


SHAKE IT

SAY A LITTLE PRAYER

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my make up
I say a little prayer for you
And while combing my hair, now
And wondering what dress to wear, now
I say a little prayer for you
Forever and ever, you stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only bring heartbreak for me

I run for the bus, dear
While running I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
And at work, I just take time
And all through my coffee break time
I say a little prayer for you

Forever and ever, you stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only bring heartbreak for me

Forever and ever, you stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only bring heartbreak for me

My darling, believe me
For me, there is no one but you
Please, love me true
I'm in love with you
Answer my prayer, babe

Forever and ever, you stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only bring heartbreak for me

My darling, believe me
For me, there is no one but you
Please, love me true
I'm in love with you
Answer my prayer, babe
Say you'll love me, too
Answer my prayer, now, babe
Answer it right now, babe
Say you'll love me, too
