Peter Piper

Lyrics

Now Peter Piper picked peppers, but Run rocked rhymes
 Humpty Dumpty fell down, that's his hard time
 Jack B. Nimble was nimble, and he was quick
 But Jam Master cut faster, Jack's on Jay's dick
 Now little Bo Peep cold lost her sheep
 And Rip van Winkle fell the hell asleep
 And Alice chillin' somewhere in Wonderland
 Jack's serving Jill a bucket in his hand
 And Jam Master Jay's making out our sound,
 The turntables might wobble but they won't fall down
 Now Dr. Seuss and Mother Goose both did their thing
 But, Jam Master's gettin' loose and D M C's the king
 'Cause he's the adult entertainer, child educator
 Jam Master Jay, king of the crossfader
 He's the better of the best, best believe he's the baddest
 Perfect timin' when I'm climbin', I'm rhymin' apparatus
 Lotta guts, when he cuts, girls move their butts
 His name is Jay, hear the play, he must be nuts
 And on the mix, real quick and I'd like to say
 He's not Flash but he's fast and his name is Jay
 It goes a one, two, three and
 Jay's like King Midas, as I was told
 Everything that he touched turned to gold
 He's the greatest of the great, get it straight he's great
 Claim fame 'cause his name is known in every state
 His name is Jay to see him play will make you say
 "God damn, that DJ made my day"
 Like the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker
 He's a maker, a breaker and a title taker
 Like the little old lady who lived in a shoe
 If cuts were kids, he would be due
 I'm not lying, y'all, he's the best I know
 And if I lie, my nose will grow
 Like the little wooden boy named Pinochio
 And you all know how the story goes
 Tricks are for kids he plays much gigs
 He's the big bad wolf and you're the three pigs
 He's the big bad wolf in your neighborhood
 Not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good, there it is
 We're Run DMC got a beef to settle
 Run's not Hansel, D's not Gretel
 Jay's a winner, not a beginner
 His pocket gets fat while others get thinner
 J-Jump on Jay like cows jump moons
 People chase Jay like dish and spoon
 And like all fairy tales end
 You'll see Jay again my friend, huh
