De La Soul - No More No Less lyrics

(Three's the magic number) [Yes it is] (It's the magic number) [Yes it is] (Three's the magic number) [Yes it is] (It's the magic-) You go difficult preachin' is Posdunous' pleasure Pleasure and preachin' starts in the heart Something that stimulates the music in the measure Measure in the music breaks in three parts Casually see but don't do like the soul Cause seein' and doin' are actions for monkeys Doin' hip hop hustle, no rock and roll Unless your name's Brewster, Brewster's a punky Parents let go cause there's magic in the air Criticizin' rap, shows you're out of order Stop look and listen to the phrasin' Fred Astaires And don't get mad sir Mase is smashin' your daughter A tri-lateral system is now set As usually stands for Da.I.S.Y productions It stands for "da inner sound y'all" and y'all can bet That the action's not a trick, but showing of a function (No more no less) Three's the magic It's word to Jake yo', we indeed (We don't have to guess) The Maseo, Plug dos and me We tally up to make the number (three) Focus is formed by flaunts of the soul Souls who flaunt styles gain praises by pounds Common are speakers who be honoring the scroll Scroll written daily creates a new sound Listeners listen, cause this here's wisdom Wisdom of a Speaker, a Dove and a Plug Yo, set aside a substance that you feed 'em Now get 'em high off this dialect drug Time is a factor so it's time that counts Count not the negative actions of one Speakers of soul say it's time to shout Three forms the soul to a positive sum Dance to this fix and flex every muscle Space can be filled if you clap baby, clap!
