[Verse 1] Well my name is Young MC and I'm cold rockin' the house I came up into the place and I'm a-turnin' it out Cause I'm a mover, a shaker, for real and not a faker Put your girl up into my face and if you diss me I will take her Cause I'm one of a kind, I'm going to rock the Earth And I'm worth my weight in gold, [?] Not Doug E., Run, Whodini, Cool J, or Shan My name is Marvin, Young MC, and I'm a hell of a man I got my name well known all over the place To all seven continents and even outer space Cause when [?] goin' out for a walk Yeah frontin' people listen when they hear me talk They told me time will tell, and it has told Cause I've been rockin' a microphone since I was ten years old I'm a jack of all trades, and a master of three: Rockin' the tables, rockin' the mics, and rockin' the young ladies So then yes indeed, give you what you need Without crack, marijuana, c**aine, or speed I don't drink or smoke, and that ain't no joke I just pick up the microphone and start to go for broke So if you think that you can deal Get on the mic, get on the wheels of steel And then do your thing, or make the telephone ring Cause if you dance then dance, and if you sing then sing Because once I start there ain't no stoppin Heard of hiphop, Young MC is hiphoppin Mix, scratch, and blend every now and then And I love to rock the mic when I'm around my friends I like to go for broke cause I'm that kind of man Yo I'm a die-hard rapper, you're my die-hard fan So in closing, I'd like to thank everyone But don't touch that dial, because my rhyme ain't done My name is Young [Hook] (Who is it?) (What did you say your name was?) My name is Young (Who is it?) (What did you say your name was?) Now they call me Young MC cause I was young when I started People tried to break, yo that's cold-hearted Rock the mic on every chance I get That's why I'm making more money than the national debt See I came into the place to make my name known As the Commander In Chief of the microphone They thought I was wack at first, but once I started to rhyme They said I'm called Young MC, let's hear that one more time I take the bull by the horn when opportunity knocks And I'm notoriously known as the kid that rocks So listen to me, don't say boo me, you don't like me you can sue me But once I'm finished rapping you'll be happy that you knew me You hear just what I'm saying, see where I am at Cause I'm the freshest rapper out, it is as simple as that Yo I'm the freshest rapper out, there's not much more I can say I put the cap in Cap'n Crunch, the oil in Oil of Olay I put the good in Good N Plenty, bad in Bad News Bears I put the jack in Jackson 5, the son in Sonny and Cher I put the mutt in Mother Goose, the doc in Doctor Seuss So when I'm mic'in' upon the mic you know you gotta get loose My name is Young [Hook] You see I rhyme real fast cause I am on the go Federal Express called up my agent but I said no Money-makin' Manhattan is the place where I went into school Goin' into cla** every day, followin' the golden rule I'm takin' it out of the cla**, I'm steppin' it on the train And some of the people that you [?] can make you go insane I'm takin' the bus out to Hollis and in Queensville I'm hangin' it down with the fellas, hope I don't get ill Because I'm rockin' upon the mic, and really doin' the best I can Stayin' with all the ladies, with a microphone in my hand Makin' up all the money, and just takin' up all the time Because the Young MC is my name and yo I'm ready to bust a rhyme So when I'm checkin' the party people there's a story to tell It isn't about Humpty Dumpty or the farmer and the dell It isn't about Pinnochio or Alice in Wonderland It's all about the funky rapper who's the greatest man My name is Young [Hook]
