Yah yah
Yeah I'm ready freddy
Y'all heard what I said-y
Just take it nice and steady
And now you're ready, ready
I said I'm ready freddy
Y'all heard what I said-y
Just take it nice and steady
And now you're ready, ready
Ready as can be
Almost quarter to three
It's time to go to work and make all the krabby patties
I got my squarepants on
It's time to move along
Gonna puff my chest out and prove to the world that I am strong
Yeah I'm ready freddy
Y'all heard what I said-y
Just take it nice and steady
And now you're ready, ready
I said I'm ready freddy
Y'all heard what I said-y
Just take it nice and steady
And now you're ready, ready
Runnin to the Krusty Krab
Show em all that I am fab
These awards I keep on grabbin
I deserve to keep on dabbin
Flip the patties, watch me flexin
Collectin all of my paychecks and
Squidward I'm always perplexin
Squirrel best friend, yeah she's a Texan
Yeah I'm ready freddy
Y'all heard what I said-y
Just take it nice and steady
And now you're ready, ready
I said I'm ready freddy




Y'all heard what I said-y
Just take it nice and steady

I'm 66 years old and obviously not from the Hip Hop generation, but this song, the beat, the lyrics is what the up and coming generations need. I hope the new gospel movement keep it going. Jesus is Lord!!!
