Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you know the voice you know i'm the choice
but right now i'd like to bring you a funky funky group
that go by the name of LEN
l e n
and we gonna go a lil something like this
check it out
d rock
i got mumbles on the beats and me and biz is rappin
and when we get together we makes it happen
and if you find my ryhme book well please don't bend
cause i can kill the man with the jab of my pen
i'm not a violent man
but hang with violent men
sometimes i like to chill and try to read zen
i gotta give props to a writer named wren(???)
cause he's been around since god knows when
i think it's time for an introduction
my name is d-rock from a crew called len
been into hip-hop since the age of 10
and i leave them in shock when i begin
that's why i don't front on my first impressions
and i only write rhymes for my circle of friends
it's like that, and that's the way it ends
me and biz markie constantly set trends
oh, what a beautiful day
what a beautiful day
what a beautiful day
party people in the place i'd like to tell you a tale
about a high powered girl
her name is gale
she's a funky fresh girly, she ain't stale
everytime i see her she makes me hard as a nail
i was chillin at my house drinkin ginger-ale
watchin monty python and the holy grail
when i got a phone call it never failed
it came all the way from a college named yale
i said hello pretty momma, what's up female?
lets go on a cruise, or go on a sail
but first let me call my mane named dale
i call him, but he was in jail
we both went down and paid his bail
it came back three weeks in the mail
one thing i forgot this last detail
that the biz markie will always prevail
oh, what a beautiful day
what a beautiful day
what a beautiful day
yo, i want to say peace to all our crews
east and west that rock the best
say wuzzup to g-force, my man without a porsche
a shout out to sean and mikah(???)
for throwin those parties
and how ya doin johnny walker in vancouver?

and a special big beautiful day
to a special big beautiful label
for givin us all that
special special special beautiful cash
