via satellitefrom the Never Never Tunnels
Now dig.. the rituals for todayis good music
So sit backrelax.. and dig the groove

Black Thought
Yo bust itI digs hip-hopand rocks for hip-hop
Not R&B because to me that s not my style and
the R-double-O-quotes ain t for radiobut major soul
the ones that s hip won t change the dial and
I remember one morning at the Soul Shackcoolin
in the outbackon the songwritin ship
Blizz a fiveoff a Bob Marley spliff
On the cloud I be relaxin from last night and shit
In studio today but hey BROther ?uestion
was on the Westside asleep without a clue when
I hollered down to Crumbs to pick up the phone
and tell him to get ready (?uestionwhat ya doin?)
(Ain t no thing) Yeah
Buttered chicken wingsso I met him in the West
where we had to lax and wait for Rubber Band and Bes
Bassey broke down on the other side of town

A girl says"Hey ain t y all The Square Roots?"

Now we got to make out exit (where?)
to the pavement (to what?) Crushin trail mix
(oh word manyo look out) Say what? (look out!)

(Ain t no thing) but a chicken wingso

and his pants fall down (dang!)
