Make It Funky
Ice-T Lyrics

(Make it funky)
Let's make the music funky.

So the people can get down to the funky sound
We want the people to enjoy the funky music and dance to it.

Cause my crew don't mess around
My crew is serious and won't tolerate messing around.

So the girls can get busy,dog the dance floor
We want the girls to dance and keep the dance floor busy.

Make the guys get dizzy
We want the guys to get dizzy from dancing to the funky beats.

Totally def as Evil E guts the records and the beat is kept
Evil E is expertly scratching on the turntables while keeping the beat funky.

Stupid fly,it's got to the F-you-N-K why?
This beat is so good that it's insane, it's got to be funky.

So that you can get loose as I produce sounds hard as the deuce
My production is powerful and strong, which will make you want to dance wildly.

Manipulate the bass gain give the level's a boost
Making adjustments to the bass levels to make the sound more amplified and powerful.

The lyric layer rhyme sayer,born to be player
I am a skilled rapper and born entertainer.

If politics were my kick then I'd be your mayor
If I were in politics, I'd be running for mayor.

Governator,Senator,I'm your mentor
I could be a mentor to politicians, whether they are governors or senators.

Rap rhythm is erratic,time is four, four
The rhythm of rap music changes frequently and having a four-four time signature is common.

I'm the microphone scholar,clockin' long dollars
I am highly-skilled when it comes to rapping and have made a lot of money from it.

Here to make the place funky while the fly girls holler
I am here to create a fun atmosphere while the girls show their excitement by hollering.

Genius vocalist,rhyme style priceless
I am a talented vocalist and my style of rhyming is unmatched.

Pound of gold around my neck,mic in my first
I am a successful rapper, indicated by the gold chain I wear and the mic in my hand.

The microphone virtuoso crazy insane I'm loco
I'm a virtuoso with the microphone, and my insane talent can make me seem crazy at times.

With the speed to exceed,make other MC's look slow mo
I have such great speed and skill that I can make other rappers look slower in comparison.

Un-lease release words mean as a beast
I release powerful and meaningful lyrics like a beast being let loose.

I eat MC's for lunch and dinner,I can serve for a feast
I am so dominant in rap battles that I metaphorically 'eat' my opponents for lunch and dinner.

Their rhymes are elementary,mine deserve a PH D
Their rhymes are simple and basic, while my rhymes are so advanced that they deserve a PHD degree.

Undoubtedly you recognize this jam is the ultimate cut
This song is the best and everyone knows it.

Uncontrollably you motivate and move your butt
The music is so good that you can't help but dance and move your body to it.

It's rough the beat is gangsterous,call it tough
The music is rough and tough, and can be described as being similar to gangster rap.

If you're diss'n stop frontin',come on what's up?
If you have a complaint or are dissatisfied, stop pretending and speak up about what's wrong.

Complicated voice gymnastics are all in your face
The complicated and impressive vocal techniques are clearly evident in the music.

Vegas got my highs,E.V's got control my bass
My sound system is so good that the highs make me feel like I'm in Las Vegas while Evil E expertly controls the bass.

My break is comin' get busy no time ta waste
A musical break is about to happen, and it's time to dance and have a good time.

Now's the time do body work here's the place
It's the perfect time and place to dance and work your body.

Make it funky enough so the tracks lay tough
The music should be funky enough to make the tracks sound tough and edgy.

'Cause I'm tossin' it up and the Ice don't bluff
I am playing with a lot of energy and excitement, and it's not just for show.

The girl charmer toy Harmer,juice strong as armor
I am able to charm and attract women easily, and my confidence is like a shield of armor.

When I stand upon the stage you could call it melodrama
When I perform on stage, it can be considered like a melodrama, with a lot of excitement and exaggerated emotions.

Intense suspense my voice emcee
The intensity and suspense of the music is reflected in my voice as an emcee.

I wouldn't have you come and see me under false pretense
I wouldn't deceive my fans by putting up a false image, and they should expect the real me when they come to see me perform.

The girlies do be wild'n'as I'm profilin'
The girls are going wild as I continue to perform and attract attention.

Limos lined around the block for about a mile'n'a half
There are so many fans that limos are lined up outside the venue for miles.

Autographs the list goes on
Fans are asking for autographs and it's a non-stop process.

If you forgot it "make it funky" is the name of this song
If you forgot the name of the song, it's called 'Make it Funky'.

Stupid dope and you know it,it rates a ten
The music is incredibly good and deserves a perfect rating of ten.

You pray my DJ cuts the records so it starts again
The DJ's music is so good that fans wish to hear it again and again.

'Cause I can keep the mic cookin' for an entire month
I am so skilled at rapping that I could perform for an entire month and keep the fans entertained.

My rhymes are always hard hittin' I don't know how to bunt
My rhymes are always strong and powerful, and I don't know how to be weak or unimpressive in my rapping.

My DJ cuts like a laser E-V-I-L-E
My DJ, Evil E, is very precise and accurate in his scratching, similar to the precision of a laser beam.

Put your finger on the records
This is a directive to put your fingers on the record for a 'scratch' effect.

Make it,Make it funky
Again, let's make this music funky.
