Eddie Ill & D.L. - Tinseltown to the Boogiedown lyrics

(Keep slipping Time keep slipping) LEE MAJORS: Yo, the only thing Majors don't waste is time in bed My timing is rare, take time, time to prepare No time for fear, how many times I said it this year? What time ya going to realize: The time is near Call a time out! Scritti Politti Major climbed out The cracks of the streets waste no time on beats Mos Def, mos definitely, the rap chief The new release, time to make cream, time to take a piece And at the same time, time to build, time is rilla I swear I bring the heat to tracks like Val Kilmer You know that time waits for no man, in time you'll see That you're wasting all your time while you watchin' TV And yo Scritti, I'm on it like walls to graffiti From night sticks to plunges to N.Y.P.D From Lucille to B.B. King you see me rhyme (what) You stay away from drama if it's just wasting your time HOOK: LEE MAJORS (GREEN GARTSIDE) Time tables keep turning (From tinseltown) You've got the both ends burning up (To the boogiedown) Time-time keeps slipping (They play for time) (And work for spaces) Time tables keep turning (And clocks are wound) You've got the both ends burning up (And worked around) Time-time keeps slipping (And in their prime) (They change their faces) MOS DEF: Yeah, from boogiedown to tinseltown, I had 'em all gettin' down My baggage claim's got exotic names, I get around How I'm living now well that's a whole lot different now From where I'm sittin' at I got a whole clearer vision now I play the tables hard, wild cards I was flipping down My partners hitting pounds somewhere off in prison now I'm flipping out, things switch and change so suddenly The way you act today is tomorrow's where you wanna be Your company shift when you start livin' comfortably The spotlight switch and then you dip right from under me Don't front with me, I want to be perfectly clear Time is here I'm keeping yesterday in the rear A current affair Mos Def and Lee Majors appear 'Bout to write this little diddy with that Scritti you hear And it's about that time so if you could damn would you? Sit back and look at who time's been good to HOOK: LEE MAJORS (GREEN GARTSIDE) Time tables keep turning (From tinseltown) You've got the both ends burning up (To the boogiedown) Time-time keeps slipping (They play for time) (And work for spaces) Time tables keep turning (And clocks are wound) You've got the both ends burning up (And worked around) Time-time keeps slipping (And in their prime) (They change their faces) LEE MAJORS: Now one time I thought I had it all Ma** of broads, flash awards, cash cards Time's a double-edged sword One day you hear applause next day when you leave You catch an L in the C like Christopher Reeves But y'all believe that this cats threw dirt on my name? Give 'em time, they couldn't win if I gave them point game At time I used to swerve now I'm learning my lane Trapped in time what a shame with nobody to blame MOS DEF: It waits for no one, the fats and slow ones, the rich the no funs Samurais and Showgirls, the first drinking noras [not possible] Hey Yoda, you better hop to it or you blow son 'Cuz time keep slipping, make no difference if you don't come It's beeing well recorded how we sported that advice, we- Get our game and do our thing and spend these moments wisely It's time to make chase, get face, no time to waste First you on, then you gone, so long, you've been replaced HOOK: LEE MAJORS (GREEN GARTSIDE) Time tables keep turning (From cali high) You've got the both ends burning up (To the do-or-die) Time-time keeps slipping (They set their heart) (And fix their courses) Time tables keep turning (And dreams are dreams) You've got the both ends burning up (of how we see) Time-time keeps slipping (They steel themselves) (They are ressources) Time tables keep turning (From tinseltown) You've got the both ends burning up (To the boogiedown) Time-time keeps slipping (They play for time) (And work for spaces) Time tables keep turning (And clocks are wound) You've got the both ends burning up (And worked around) Time-time keeps slipping (And in their prime) (They change their faces)
