Early to Rise
Nice & Smooth Lyrics

Early to rise
Wake up early to start the day and work hard for our money.

We gotta get paid
We need to make money to support ourselves.

Early to bed
Go to bed early to be well-rested and ready for the next day's work.

Yo, yo, we gotta get laid
We also need to have fun in our lives and have intimate relationships.

I think it's time for us
We should take advantage of the early morning to focus on creating new and fresh content for our careers.

To make fresh rhymes out of our heads
To come up with innovative and original lyrics for our music.

Early mornin, break of dawn'n
It's early in the morning, right as the sun is rising.

At the hotel, we be yawnin
We're staying at a hotel and still feeling a bit tired.

Take off your clothes, take off mine
We're getting undressed, possibly indicating a sexual encounter.

Sun is shinin I'm feelin fine
The sun is shining and we're feeling good.

Stop it booty I don't want to do the do
We're not in the mood for sex.

But I want the breakfast menu
We're hungry and want breakfast.

C'mon, give me a big be -B.L.T.
We want a sandwich with bacon, lettuce, and tomato.

C'mon, give me a glass of vitamin see
We want a glass of orange juice (vitamin C).

Toast with butter, not a cover
We want toast with butter, not burnt or overcooked.

If you burn it I'll want a-nother
If the toast is burnt, we'll request a new one.

Because I'm choosy and I'm small
We're picky eaters and maybe have a small appetite.

I'm like Cinderella at the ball
We're feeling good and having a good time.

I throw my hands, up in the air
We're having fun and dancing.

I got the juice you never com-pare
We have a lot of energy and confidence.

Ladies shake your derriere
Encouraging women to dance.

Homeboy, this ain't a fashion fair
This is a music event, not a fashion show.

Who's that booty over there?
Who's that attractive person over there?

Whattup baby, what's your name?
We're trying to start a conversation with someone we find attractive.

You oughta be in pictures, you know what I'm sayin?
You're very attractive and should consider a career in modeling or acting.

Rap czar, superstar
We're highly successful in the rap industry.

No limitation in my life and I'm known to go far
We have no limits in our career and have accomplished a lot.

Live in the Bronx upon a street called Marion
We live in the Bronx on Marion Street.

Girls on the block call me a black Blake Carrington
We're well-known and respected in our community.

Handsome as hell, I dress real swell
We dress well and consider ourselves good-looking.

By the tone of my voice maybe you can tell that I
Our voice conveys our cool and confident personality.

Shampoo with Prell and live life well
We use Prell shampoo and take care of ourselves.

When I pass you on the street it's lack of failure smell
When we walk past someone, they can tell we're successful and have no smell of failure.

I'm gonna let you know that I'm divine competition
We're letting others know that we're top competition.

When I give a show don't front just pay admission
When we perform, don't hesitate to pay to see us.

To see, the greatest rapper that will ever perform
We consider ourselves the best rapper of all time.

Cause this is, a rap attack not a quiet storm
Our music is energetic and aggressive.

Went downtown to meet my girl
We went downtown to meet our girlfriend.

Light brown dimples and natural curls
Our girlfriend has light brown skin with dimples and natural curls.

Got to her school, what did I see?
We arrived at our girlfriend's school.

Some onionhead brother tryin to talk to my G
Another guy is trying to talk to our girlfriend.

I said, "I beg your pardon, no need for alarm
We addressed the guy in a polite manner, without causing a scene.

But I am the man with finesse and charm"
We're confident and charming.

A man of good nature no quiver or qualm
We're easygoing and relaxed.

Didn't want to have to do the boy no bodily harm
We didn't want to resort to violence.

Told him Silvie is the girl that I came to pick up
We let him know that Silvie is our girlfriend.

And if he kept talkin to her he'd be pressin his luck
If he didn't stop talking to our girlfriend, he'd be pushing his luck.

He said, "I'm sorry Smooth Bee, I didn't recognize
The other guy apologized for not knowing Silvie was our girlfriend.

Didn't recollect nor did I realize
He didn't remember meeting our girlfriend before.

That she was your girl, but it's no surprise
It's no surprise that she's someone's girlfriend.

Cause when it comes to cutiepies you win first prize
We have an attractive girlfriend and have won in that category.

So I thanked for the compliment then stepped off
We accepted the compliment and left the situation.

Grabbed my girl, and jumped in my ride and broke North
We left with our girlfriend and headed North.

Took her uptown so we could make love
We took our girlfriend uptown to have sex.

Cause while she's in school I'm all she thinks of
We're always on our girlfriend's mind, even while she's in school.

Smooth Bee, the only MC
We're introducing ourselves as Smooth Bee, the only MC.

That's guaranteed to be free cause I possess the key, c'mon
We're confident in our abilities as an MC and will always be original.
