too short – sample the funk lyrics
sup? short dogg back in the house beeyatch
and it don’t stop to the beat
ain’t no thang but a chicken wing
we gonna do it like this one more time
straight from oakland, california, i’m back again
short dogg’s on the mic ’bout to mack and pimp
we got flavor at the dangerous crew camp
save your money, can’t use dem food stamps
other crews like to sample and mix
but our crew, we just play that sh-t live
drums, b-ss, keys
n-gg-s don’t like it, you can get bees
stuck in the back of your throat
f-ckin’ with a pimp named sir too $hort
we coulda sampled the luke but we didn’t
i’d rather treat you like a ho and start pimpin’
when will your other brothers realize?
can’t f-ck with my crew, better feel your eyes
’cause you must be blind if you can’t see
and i’ma say this sh-t quite frankly
i give a f-ck when free stylers step up
i don’t do it, tell you ’bout it on the next cut
’cause right now we gotta feel the flow
and make sure we keep it real slow
just like the motherf-ckin’ dangerous crew
we gettin’ funky like it’s 1972
still puffin’ on them zags, dressed like pimps
and axe the ohio players once again
can we sample the funk?
y’know we don’t wanna wear it out
we just wanna li’l piece, you know what i’m sayin’?
we ain’t goin’ loopy, we’re goin’ freaky
we gonna funk it, track for track
dangerous crew style
ant banks, let me flip this one more time
ya ready?
all you brand new rappers got a new flow
you ain’t samplin’ james brown no more
probably try to sample cameo
parliament funkadelic, you scandalous ho
you stole it, ossie brothers, bark kays
barry white, isaac hayes
have you heard the term ‘sample clearance’?
start the n-gg- who wrote it, would never hear it
now we’re suin’ your -ss for sure
got’cha spendin’ all ya money ’cause you need a lawyer
you got problems and you need to solve ’em
you shouldn’t of sampled wouldn’t of had dem problems
if you’d have played your own sh-t
you wouldn’t be broke, you woulda made your long grip, b-tch
but that’s irrelevant now, my friend
’cause they done wiped you clean like ant banks’ benz
sittin’ on some three-piece amg’s
better find you a sample, you ain’t playin’ these
kinda beats, so funky make your fingers pop
if you can’t find a sample you ain’t got
not one d-mn thing for a n-gg- to ride to
but i been gettin’ funky since i was in high school
growin’ up in that bootsy’s rubber band
in ’76, seen a mothership land
nothin’ but funk all in your face
i like to slow it way down in -ss and b-ss
’cause that’s how we be layin’ tracks
just flip the funky rhyme and start sayin’ raps
get funky with ant banks, peewee, shorty b
father d, dope d, tony t, the motherf-ckin’ dangerous crew
and that’s the drop from the dime, we’ll change the groove
just to sample the funk, beeyatch
{that’s right, my n-gg- peewee friggin’ the keyboards
tony t on the drums, shorty b on the b-ss
ant banks on the mixing boards, short dogg on the vocals}
right now you know the story of too $hort, baby
first started rappin’ in 1980
i got more game than monopoly
now i’m makin’ money, ain’t n-body stoppin’ me
used to be local ’til i signed with jive, man
used to like to sample, now i’m rollin’ with live band
now that i finally did this sh-t
i’m makin’ one more alb-m and then i quit
and only one thing could make me say i’m not
and that’s one million dollars on the spot
upfront cash, money, no compromise
no schemes, no scandals, don’t front and lie
just pay the man in full
thirty years old, torch the bull
ain’t givin’ sh-t up but the funk
let these record companies know what the f-ck i want
’cause they been f-ckin’ black folks right from the start
when you sign that line tear your -ss apart
for every one you get they gettin’ five
n-gg-s gettin’ paid but it don’t seem right
i know where i came from and know where i’m at
and my last two alb-ms don’t sound real bad
i’m too $hort, baby, i ain’t no punk
i’m just askin’, “can i sample the funk?”
so can we sample the funk? b-tch!
yeah, you know what i’m sayin’?
i’m talkin’ to george clinton, bootsy collins
my n-gg- suga foot and diamond from the ohio players
i’m talkin’ to james brown
we know where the funk came from
johnny ‘guitar’ [incomprehensible]
to all y’all n-gg-s, y’all can sample all you want
here we go loopty-loo
’cause the dangerous crew goin’ to get funky like this
flip it
