[Black Thought] From The Never Never Tunnels via satellite Ceremonies be commencing in the candlelight Yo is I is up in the res-in-iduals tonight Absolutely because I'm the kid that's on the mic And I believe it's destiny that I got put in a position to throw lyrics like a shotput Yo no matter the circumstance Thought can always make you dance like you got the heebie-jeebies or a hotfoot The ba** is low on the meter, less than zero So while I'm sinning you be spinning like a planet Yo if you dig the sh** I'm sayin you'll be deeper Wish for little and your wishes shall be granted We plant the seeds y'all, to grow The Roots y'all And mad knowledge I got, from the archives But now I got a crazy fat question: what ever happened to Leonard Parts One to Five? [Chorus: Black Thought (repeat 2X)] Why'd you ask me that question? (I don't know) Where did Leonard Parts One to Five go? Why'd you ask me that question? (I don't know) Word/Uhh/Yeah/... Where did Leonard Parts One to Five go.. [Black Thought] Chariot, Chariot, come swing low--be Cause it's on a lower level that I swing low, umm ?uestion, keeps me up, on the swing flow, he don't got a whole name, I call him, BRO The Roots is comin through on your audio For you to cut The Roots down I don't think so Because the sound from the ground is like be--low And when the liquid kicks in then The Roots grow Now my ace boom coon plus amigo Was Shadrach Meshach and N'bendago There was a Alpha to Omega, motion, system but I just call them A to O And in all states, The Roots'll rock a fat show Because I drop art like I was Pa-blo And Pa-blo's last name was Pica**o But as for cash flow, I don't got no dividends and, ends to spend on blow, yo Where did Leonard Parts to Five go?
