A Tribe Called Quest - Hey lyrics

[Verse 1: Q-Tip] The name is Q-Tip, enterin' through the middle From the left, dead all the jokes and the riddles Comin' from the maximum gain, the octane That's on the radio it made me feel so low It seems we gotta, brighten, the damp prison I'm Nintendo 64 and you Mattel Intellivision Bustin' from no mo' trey-eights, now papi weight This joint is like a ruger, watch it roar like a cougar And we gotta, move on the dancefloor And work it out all night that's what you came here for Just chem', I fills it to the rim, your shine is lookin dim Daddy shine the light on him, ahem it's me Leader of the starfleet force Guaranteed to knock your joint off course, we took the loss? Damn right, sure as tina made ike We gonna put it in your noggin all night, and all day The trilateral commision we dissin' Tellin citizens be straight, but like snakes they hissin' I'll be damned if I let his song fall to the side Goin' piggybackin sh**, let's ride, c'mon [Hook] I put it down, now what you gonna do (8x) Hey, now, what you gonna do, with yourself, hah? (4x) [Verse 2: Q-Tip] When you hear this, recognize you hear love MC n***a illin' over b-boy dubs Riding through the sh** like tron Doesn't matter if you onboard, do you wanna get on? Cause if you do, watch all the moves that we make Gotta do the things right, ain't no time for mistake It's the hip-hop cat that can't, f** with Jake Just because he wear a badge doesn't, mean he straight so What you wanna swallow it down or let's take it Disregard those who fake it, yo it doesn't matter About the realm, hip-hop is to the helm It's divine to hit the mind like slippery elms So put it down man, put it on down Put it down man, put it on down Put it down woman, put it on down Put it down man, put it on down Put it down man, whatchu gonna do Put it down woman, whatchu gonna do A-put it down man, whatchu gonna do Put it down woman, whatchu gonna do
