Lyrics

We got the Refugee Allstars rub-a-dubbing in the club
 Wyclef Jean, John Forte, Praswell
 Nah mean, the streets are getting a little crazy
 Looka looka looka looka looka
 Looka looka looka here looka shorty got back
 Should I ask her for a dance? Hold on, there's too many in the wolf pack
 And besides, Dirty Cash talking to her
 Buying her fake furs and taking her to The Fever
 Quiet as it's kept, that ain't even his Benz
 She spends his Franklins at the malls with her friends
 Material girl, living in a material world
 But it's all right 'cause it's Saturday night
 So mister funkmaster, pump the Bee Gees
 And all you college students, play your Ouijas
 Check the spelling, r-e-f-u-g-e-e
 Get the CD from Sam Goody, hee hee!
 You ain't even close with the rhymes that you wrote
 Don't be mad 'cause you broke
 Let me clear my throat, ah huh ah huh
 John Forte, grab the mic, let's sway this way
 I'm more than just a rhymer, you still a small timer
 Hoping that the game treat that ass a little kinder
 Every step tango'd
 Your beef don't concern me
 I'm eating mangoes in Trinidad with attorneys
 My crew's slang flow, worldwide like a current
 With the every spot where nobody got insurance
 Brother, do the math, you ain't half near exotic
 My man's claim true, you forget about it
 Po-po just a nuisance, like my influence
 Well, recognize you a lie trying do it
 Got juice, told your lady
 Oops! We Nutz Baby
 Smooth and charismatic, automatic
 You gonna save me
 God bless the day that my sons survive
 We strive to teach the youth, baby, and stay alive
 ♪
 Well, you can tell by the way I roll, shorty, that I'm a ladies man
 A business man
 Condos down the shore
 Multi-million pension plan
 But it ain't in my plan to make moves without the fam
 I keep it intact
 Yo 'Clef, do the track
 John, play the mack while I pay the tax
 Business as usual
 Watching suspects steal my assets
 Get cut with Gillettes
 We built this concept, connect like NYNEX
 Drinks at the bar, my American Express
 Yo, I cook up, cook up
 The copper pull up, pull up
 Then I cuff up, cuff up
 You who's calling bluff
 Now you shook up, shook up
 'Cause you lock up, lock up
 When I love up, love up
 You who's calling bluff
 Hey yo, John is chilling
 Dirty Cash dealing
 What more can I say, we living
 That's what we got, we got it good
 And since you understood
 We be...
 ♪
 Yeah
 Live at the Carnival
 '97 'til infinity
 Ha
 Refugee all-stars
 Can't stop the shining, can't stop the shining
 Can't stop the shining, can't stop the shining
 You wanna stop the shining? You wanna stop the shining?
 You wanna stop the shining? You wanna stop the shining?
 Can't stop the shining, can't stop the shining
