[Intro: Roy Ayers]
More Action
More Excitement
More Everything
[Spoken: Erykah Badu + Roy Ayers]
Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen
Across space
Step right up and step off the train
The land before time
Welcome to Amerykah
All the freaks are here
All you have to do is make a promise
30 thousand millwatts of power baby
Radiating your souls
Sign right here, on the dotted line
C'mon getcha some free
Ladies and Gentlemen, before exiting the train
Please leave your valuables, diamonds, rubies and pearls
In the cabinet adjacent to the left
Um, the p**ycats and the jackals you can leave them with me
I won't steal your gold
[Verse: Erykah Badu + Roy Ayers]
