Enter The Dragon
Chubb Rock Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Enter the sensei, praise while I pose in the stance
Dance or some bust ass advance so to enhance
your appreciation for one creation
That God didn't make a mistake to make
Flake if you want to, gonna, hauna, trama, go tell ya mama
And your honor my actions don't believe the drama
During the chorus found Chuck Norris and so then yo Chucky
You had juice you fought Bruce and now you want to duck me
And hug me damn Vanilla Chutney
You want to shut me down like Chuck D
And I will kill, act ill, thrill with skill, Bill
And then I ass whip and I then skip
to the loo n wax you and your crew and
Give a liter to some damn pupil booin
Like Uhh yo, you, sensei rock
Act like you know a judo a chop chop chop

You know I walk down the streets of the Soho in Tokyo
On my arm no Yoko Ono so yo
I don't know the vibes or the lives at the rice with chives
After the rice with chives is giving me hives
I don't know what to say about the place
I mean everybody here has a smile on their face
So I'm rolling with the scenery and glad I came
If I see some o ill shit like black rain I'm O-you-T
Three strikes and take some Sony kid off his bike
And be ghost and step hard like a dyke
Yeeeeesssss Bruce Lee was the best
But the kid also drank more wine than they did on Falcon Crust
But no juice or blunt or stunt or brew
Or tres or hate or friends or crews
Will never stop Chubbs and draw four Uno
Act like you know a judo a chop chop chop

Why did you leave the palace when I told you not to
And now I have to put on the Gee and chop you
Into pieces not Reese's I hope no one yo see this
Cause your whipping will be the topic of my thesis
John Saxon please bow to the captain
Before you're waxing ignore all the clapping
That you're hearing, cause you half stepped on preparing
Your style, so be gone with the smile, I'll
Listen to your lest request, the S off your chest went West
And know yo test the last cess
That you're gonna get ya mess
Puff the blunt then begin to fret
You use the crane and I think I will start with the tiger
To extract all the blood and saliva




And puncture your structure with the art of the Sumo
Bow and act like you know, a judo, a chop chop chop

You can either dance or leave as I present my art form to increase your respect for my craft.


That God didn't make a mistake to make Flake if you want to, gonna, hauna, trama, go tell ya mama And your honor my actions don't believe the drama
God did not make any mistakes in creating me. If you don't believe me, feel free to complain to anyone you want, but my actions speak for themselves.


During the chorus found Chuck Norris and so then yo Chucky You had juice you fought Bruce and now you want to duck me And hug me damn Vanilla Chutney You want to shut me down like Chuck D
During the chorus, Chuck Norris appeared, causing me to acknowledge him. He fought Bruce Lee and now refuses to face me. He just wants to be close to me for appearance's sake, like a useless sidekick. He wants to end my career like Chuck D.


And I will kill, act ill, thrill with skill, Bill And then I ass whip and I then skip to the loo n wax you and your crew and Give a liter to some damn pupil booin Like Uhh yo, you, sensei rock Act like you know a judo a chop chop chop
I have the talent to perform at a high level and impress Bill. Then, I will defeat you and your crew, then teach those aspiring fighters a lesson. When I say 'yo you, Sensei Rock,' you better pay attention to my judo skills.


You know I walk down the streets of the Soho in Tokyo On my arm no Yoko Ono so yo I don't know the vibes or the lives at the rice with chives After the rice with chives is giving me hives
I walk the streets of Tokyo's Soho district without a famous partner like Yoko Ono. I don't understand the customs or lifestyle of locals, and eating rice with chives makes me sick.


I don't know what to say about the place I mean everybody here has a smile on their face So I'm rolling with the scenery and glad I came If I see some o ill shit like black rain I'm O-you-T
I don't have much to say about the place, but everyone seems content. I'll just go with the flow and enjoy the sights. However, if I see anything negative like in the movie Black Rain, I will quickly leave.


Three strikes and take some Sony kid off his bike And be ghost and step hard like a dyke Yeeeeesssss Bruce Lee was the best But the kid also drank more wine than they did on Falcon Crust
If I commit three crimes, I'll take a bike from a Sony kid and quickly disappear. Bruce Lee was a great fighter, but he also drank more than the characters in the movie Falcon Crest.


But no juice or blunt or stunt or brew Or tres or hate or friends or crews Will never stop Chubbs and draw four Uno Act like you know a judo a chop chop chop
No matter how much you try to distract me with drugs, tricks, or fights, I will not lose at anything, so don't even try. Just acknowledge my skills in judo.


Why did you leave the palace when I told you not to And now I have to put on the Gee and chop you Into pieces not Reese's I hope no one yo see this Cause your whipping will be the topic of my thesis
I told you not to leave the palace, yet you still did, so now I have to put on my uniform and defeat you. I'll cut you into tiny pieces like candy and hope nobody sees it, or that will become the topic of my research.


John Saxon please bow to the captain Before you're waxing ignore all the clapping That you're hearing, cause you half stepped on preparing Your style, so be gone with the smile, I'll Listen to your lest request, the S off your chest went West And know yo test the last cess That you're gonna get ya mess Puff the blunt then begin to fret You use the crane and I think I will start with the tiger To extract all the blood and saliva And puncture your structure with the art of the Sumo Bow and act like you know, a judo, a chop chop chop
John Saxon, bow to me as the captain. Ignore the applause you hear because you didn't fully prepare for this fight. Get rid of that smile, and I'll listen to your final request. You're no match for me, so I'll use my martial arts prowess to defeat you. I'll extract your DNA with techniques from the Sumo style while you acknowledge my judo moves.
