Pin the Tail on the Donkey
Naughty By Nature Lyrics

Oh finally, finally (here we are)
After a long wait, we have finally arrived at our destination

And for good, are the three, follow me (It ain't far)
The three of us are here for good, so come with me as it's not a long distance

Even though if it was, you could make it to the start
Even if it was a long distance, you have the ability to reach the starting point

The enemies, do you know who they are? (There they are)
Do you recognize who our enemies are? They're right there

A devil with the dorags be walkin', now I had it up to there
I'm fed up with the devil wearing dorags and walking around

Oh yeah, that's the last straw (The Nature's back for)
That is the final incident that has pushed me to my limit, and now Naughty By Nature is back for revenge

(Brothers and sisters!)
Addressing the audience as brothers and sisters, emphasizing unity

(R-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-ound)
Calling for attention and focus, preparing for action

(Ugh, ugh)
Expressing frustration and determination

Pin the tail on the junkie, find a false flavor
Expose the true identity of the deceitful person and uncover their fake nature

It's a new day to play with a neighbor
We have a fresh opportunity to interact and engage with those around us

Freeze the MC's that wanna see thee
Render the MCs who want to challenge us powerless and immobile

By now Naughty By Nature by me
At this point, everyone should recognize Naughty By Nature as represented by me

They want me to come and come up faster, that could be arranged
Some individuals desire me to rise to success quickly, and I can fulfill that request if necessary

Dump the last of the matinee, 'cause they couldn't stand the damn rain
Disregard the remaining inferior acts because they cannot handle the pressure or challenges

The pain's the same, the game remains mine
The struggle and obstacles encountered are consistent, but I still dominate the game

I got more hooks than a fish line
I possess a multitude of catchy and memorable phrases in my lyrics

Bite the head off a snake
Confront and conquer challenges or threats head-on

Chew up from the first to last break and shoot 'em in the face
Continue to dominate and confront opponents from the beginning to the end, even aggressively if needed

Make way, (move), who are you to test me? (Huh, huh, huh)
Clear a path, move aside because who are you to challenge or question my abilities?

I seen your last porno flick, it ain't impress me
I have watched your previous attempts or performances, and they have failed to impress or intimidate me

Wassup? Cuddle sport, here's a thought
What's up? Soft and weak individual, here's something to consider

(The only records that they got, are the records their crew bought)
The only achievements they claim are the ones they purchased or manufactured within their own circle

Damn real, V-Rock, their fiendin' is funky
They may claim to be authentic, but in reality, their desire or obsession is distorted and strange

Pin the tail on the donkey
Expose the true identity or nature of someone or something

(Bring that beat back)
Requesting for the beat to be restarted or replayed

I do more poppin than a blackhead, wreck the waxheads
I have a greater impact or influence than a blackhead popping and I dominate those who are obsessed with wax records

I'm fed, (Go ahead, you retired tackhead)
I am satisfied and confident, so go ahead and insult or mock me, you washed-up music enthusiast

Back to the fact of the track witta new thought
Returning to the reality of the track with a fresh perspective or idea

You couldn't smoke butts witta match and a Newport
You lack the ability or skill to successfully ignite and smoke cigarette butts using a match and a Newport brand cigarette

Here we go, we go, we go again, witta flow we know, we know it's in
Once again, we are embarking on a journey, confident in our ability and the quality of our flow

(Def play like Poppa Simpson)
Definitely playing the game smart and strategic like Poppa Simpson

KayGee's on the slice, can he co-clean?
KayGee is skillfully handling the turntable, can he do it flawlessly?

Doin more scratchin' than a funk and a dope fiend
Engaged in intense and skillful scratching of the record, like a passionate fan of funk and drugs

Cold knockin' blocks off, gettin' rocks off
Aggressively impacting and dominating the streets, gaining great satisfaction from it

I don't cock off, cop out, and now cop's off (cops off)
I don't engage in unnecessary aggression or back down, and now the police are absent or irrelevant

Another renegade of rap won't stop that
Another rebellious and independent rap artist who cannot be stopped or silenced

I'm more feared than a Sugar Hill contract
I instill more fear in others than a contract from Sugar Hill Records, known for their influence and dominance

I'm known for Lettin The Hoes Go, my demo's all flow
I have a reputation for releasing women from unhealthy relationships, and my demo showcases exceptional flow

When cursin' was a no-no, you dodo
During a time when using profanity was prohibited, you were ignorant or foolish for not adhering to the guidelines

Give it up 'cause I'm hot wit' a warm hate
Surrender or acknowledge my superiority because I possess intense passion and resentment

I won't stop, pop, til that head is screwed on straight
I won't cease or falter until I have corrected or fixed the misguided mindset

I take shorts, and no sorts, so take that clone
I accept no disrespect or limitations, so take that imitation or copy of me

The only thing I take is the 8 to the path home
The only thing I accept is the train that takes me home

And I take you all the way to the north stop
I will guide you all the way to the final destination, the northern stop

Your style's more foul than a pork chop
Your style is more offensive or unpleasant than a pork chop that has gone bad

I rock the hip-hop, non-stop tick-tock
I dominate the hip-hop genre, continuously moving forward without interruption

Around the big clock, witta spot, tick-tock
Navigating or circling around the significant challenges or obstacles, with precision and timing

Pin the tail on the jackass, it don't mean jack (chill, chill)
Expose the true nature of the foolish person, but it holds no significance or value

To a brother from down the hill
Addressing someone from a different neighborhood as a brother or friend

Back track with a rap that remains funky
Reverting back to a rap style that is consistently fresh and enjoyable

(Hmmm, and it's ugh)
Expressing satisfaction and approval with a grunt or sound effect

Back in the day, y'all, I played with Play Doh
In the past, I engaged in playful activities like molding and shaping Play Doh

The dough is real now, and dildo's feel how
The money or wealth is now legitimate, and even inanimate objects can sense or perceive it

A starvin hungry MC gets when
A passionate and determined MC begins to feel a sense of hunger or desire

MC Filet Mignon is the fixin'
MC Filet Mignon, a metaphor for quality and excellence, is the key ingredient or focus

I'm starvin' up, it's time to carve them up, yup
I'm becoming even more eager and motivated, ready to dominate and defeat them

Get 'em and cut 'em up, stuff 'em and cook the duck
Confront and dismantle them, then proceed to process and exploit their weaknesses

Tough luck, tell 'em to shut up and jet
They have encountered bad luck, so instruct them to be silent and depart quickly

And feel the threat of a real life roughneck
Experience the intimidation and danger that comes from encountering a genuine tough and aggressive individual

Pin the tail on the donkey
Expose the true identity or nature of someone or something

(Can I get a witness?)
Requesting for confirmation or agreement, seeking a witness who can vouch for the statements made

(Check check, where you, where you at, at?)
Checking for the location or presence of someone

That another best will need a hard vest for this head check
Another individual will require protective gear to withstand the physical confrontation or evaluation of their abilities

(What? There's another, Treach?) That's what I heard, yep
Surprised by the mention of another person, specifically Treach, and confirming that it is indeed true

Three steps from a pit, boom, in his chest
Only three steps away from a dangerous situation, resulting in a heavy blow to the chest

I never knew a nigga really wanted to die
I was unaware that someone was truly seeking death

Instead he bit, instead of lookin me eye-to-eye, then I
Instead, he chose to attack or challenge me in a confrontational manner instead of engaging in direct communication

Knew he was truly through, dumb plus the one
I realized that he was thoroughly defeated, both mentally and physically

To meet the mighty one, call a bad one
To encounter or face someone as powerful and influential as me, referring to himself as a formidable opponent

I rhyme about what I want to, microphone 1-2
I express myself freely through my rhymes, addressing the audience through the microphone

You're doin' like lesser than a bomb do
Your actions or performance are inferior or weaker than a bomb explosion

T-H-E M-C O-F R-A-P T-O L-double O-K
The MC of rap, representing LOOK, spelled out for emphasis

A-T I-N T-H-E N-I-N-E-T-I-E, apostrophe S, see
At the nineties, showing ownership or association with that era

And I might stop to step to a sexy
I may pause my rap or actions to approach an attractive individual

Fancy, prancy and dancy
Elegant, lively, and graceful

No cosmo stomp, here's the true form
Not just a superficial or trendy dance move, I possess the genuine essence and true form of rap

Style's so fat, it gets fitted with a shoe horn
My style is so robust and impressive that it needs assistance, like a shoe horn, to be properly contained or fitted

Here's a clearer mirror, dear ya
Presenting a more accurate reflection or perception of yourself, my dear

Lookin in nearer, 'cause I don't fear ya
Examining or observing you more closely because I have no fear of you

Some get too souped to the point
Some individuals become excessively excited or hyped to the extent

Where it's still too thick but still lick through and through
Even though the situation may become challenging or intense, I will persist and succeed

Always wanted a guy to come and try
I have always desired someone to step forward and attempt to challenge me

To get sly and try to get by my
To employ cunning tactics and try to surpass or deceive me

Ain't it a treacherous style that's wreckin' it
Isn't it a deceitful and cunning style that is causing destruction and chaos

Pin the tail on the donkey
Expose the true identity or nature of someone or something

What the?
Expressing confusion or surprise

Yo, yo, yo, yo, wassup yo?
Informal greeting, asking what is happening or being updated on the current situation

What happened? It's like that?
What went wrong? Is the situation really like that?

We gon' rush you again
We are going to aggressively confront or overpower you once more

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Encouraging someone or a group to proceed with speed or urgency
