Everything I say, you know is rough
I'm MC Shy D, and I gotta be tough
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Bodya-bodya-bodyadiyadiyadiyadiya
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
You know I came to the place to give you a lesson
To let you know that I'm not fessin'
I'm a certified rapper and my name is Shy D
I'm capable of taking out any MC
I'm back and not crackin' with the word' that I say
All you soft MCs need to step out my way
Don't try me or deny me, 'cause I'm number-one
And when I rap on the mic, I get the job done
'Cause everything I say, you know it's rough
I'm MC Shy D, and I gotta be tough
Everybody, sing this song
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Bodya-bodya-bodyadiyadiyadiyadiya
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
I'm the MC devastator, and I like to rhyme fast
I got a lot o' juice and you know I got class
I like to cool in the crib, max-relax
The IRS won't get me for tax
I won't cause no trouble or start no fight
When I got a microphone, you know, I rock all night
Once you get on the floor and start to dance
You know my devastating rhyme will put you in a trance
I will make you say Shy D is def'
And I'ma rap all night, until I run out of breath
But it's not that way, 'cause my voice is strong
And I can rap so def' and I can rap so long
All the MCs don't like me, 'cause I rock real hard
But I'm cold, gettin' paid, I got a credit card
You might as well face it, I'm not whack
You need to step-off, you need to get back
I rock on stage, I got on black
You're looking when I'm on the attack
All you sucka' MCs, you might as well confess
I can never be the whack, 'cause I'm funky-fresh
'Cause everything I say, you know it's rough
They call me Shy D, and I've got to be tough
Now, everybody, sing this song
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Bodya-bodya-bodyadiyadiyadiyadiya
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
You know I gotta be tough, 'cause there's a lot of competition
So I drink milk, 'cause that's my nutrition
When it's time to rock, I rock on top
But I do not sing, 'cause I'm runnin'-down rough
And when I'm on the microphone, I will take all the credit
I'm down with the man, so don't you never forget it
He's my mellow, my man, my pal, my Ice
You wanna battle Ice, you know, you better think twice
'Cause we're on our way to be number-one
But we don't rock the house free, we do it for fun
'Cause the time is now, the price is right
So all y'all ducks, don't get uptight
'Cause I know it's real hard, how you step in my face
But you know it's hard to keep-up the pace
You gotta be like me, MC Shy D
And be capable of taking-out any MC
'Cause I break your back, put you out-of-whack
So, don't try to battle, that's a fact
I'm not for a game, I get the job done
That's why they call me super rapper number-one
And everything I say, you know it's rough
I'm Shy D, and I've gotta be tough
Now, everybody, sing this song
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Bodya-bodya-bodyadiyadiyadiyadiya
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Yo, when I'm on the microphone, you know I'm the aggressor
I can even rock harder when I'm under pressure
MCs talk crap, but I know they fear me
'Cause I'm devastated that they can't get near me
You could try to play big, like you have no fear
But when I grab a mic, you better beware
You try to play fly, you think you're a leader
And I know you didn't know that I'm a MC-defeater
You can even call me Peter, you can call me Shy D
My favorite group is Run-DMC
'Cause they're the king of rock, there is none higher
They will always rock hard, 'til the day they retire
To burn their kingdom, you must use fire
It's Run-DMC that I admire
It's like that, and you will hear it from me
I'm talking to all you sucka' MCs
I'm the S, the H, the Y, the D
You wanna battle me? You better bring three
'Cause one is not enough, you can even bring two
Bring three, four, five, 'cause you're gonna need a crew
'Cause everything I say, you know it's rough
I'm MC Shy D, and I gotta be tough
Ah, check it out, break-down!
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Bodya-bodya-bodyadiyadiyadiyadiya
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Yo, let's kick this funky beat!
Bada-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bop, action!
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Bodya-bodya-bodyadiyadiyadiyadiya
Bada-bop-bop-bah, action!
Yo, DJ, man, I'm breaking-out 'cause my throat is sore
Tell me what you think of that, homeboy!
That was fresh!
