Pump Me Up-Grandmaster Melle Mel/The Furious Five/Various Artists

Pump Me Up - Grandmaster Flash (feat. The Furious Five) Come on, I said come on, I said come on [Melle Mel] Rappers might be willin but they ain't able Cause I was their king straight from my cradle I screamed and hollered and shook my rattle And dreamt of defeating them all in battle There was no food in my silver spoon So I grew up hard and I grew up soon I'm a righteous king but I'm hungry too And I eat up chumps that rap like you Then I met this shark and his name was Jaws He was biting my rhymes like y'all bite yours I starting writing my rhymes the shark grew and grew But I was writing more rhymes than the shark could chew The shark got sick and then he exploded Cause he didn't realize that my rhymes was loaded They flew in the air and into the sea And the whole universe knew that the king was me Come on, I said come on, I said come on [Melle Mel] I'm not a laser beam or a diamond mine Or a platinum watch or some vintage wine Not a pocket full of pearls I'm a oil well Like black gold baby I'm Melle Mel And to all the fly girls I come off hard The slightest wink or nod makes me your god All my problems are small so my pockets are large When I walk in the door Oh baby I'm in charge Treat ladies like jewels and diamond rings On my fingers on my arms on everything On the streets oh my Jesus! I can't be beat So don't ask where's the beef baby here is the meat I'm gonna give you some soap a towel and a cup Cause the bum emcees are all washed up Put your women on the line with the rest of my crew So I can make love to her and annihilate you Pump, pump ( me up!) me what? (me up!) Pump, pump, pump, pump me up! [Cowboy] I'm like the genie in your lamp A face on your stamp The hip hop rocker The microphone champ Got a knock out voice Like a rolls royce Gotta rank as number one To be the people's choice Cause you can hum a ding then you can hum a dong Its just like the friendly game of ping pong When you hitting the ball upside the paddle It's just like cowboy riding on a saddle Up above your head is the flash of light Cause I can rock to the beat on any God given night Like to rock like to roll like to entertain While my car's outside you're waiting for the train The train to the bus the bus to whatever And I'm the type of MC to rock in any type of weather I'm the bow legged brother there'll never be another I bought a mansion for my mother Come on, I said come on, I said come on [Scorpio] I got a certain cool that breaks the rules That get me paid and a lot of jewels And the women I'm calling day and night That's proof I'm getting mine like a thief in the night Because Scorp is known as the singer The quiet storm that lover didn't linger I will not change cause its in my blood I'm like dynamite and you a rappin dud And if the future is here in the making Then why I can't be part of the taking Cause you know I like cars and fancy women That give me good love in the beginning Bubble bath and candle lights And girls saying Scorp you alright? So stop standing there like you from above And just relax yourself and get in this tub Pump, pump, pump, pump me up For all you beautiful people out there If you having a good time, everybody scream! [Melle Mel] I'm not a laser beam or a diamond mine Or a platinum watch or some vintage wine Not a pocket full of pearls I'm a oil well Like black gold baby I'm Melle Mel And to all the fly girls I come off hard The slightest wink or nod makes me your god All my problems are small so my pockets are large When I walk in the door Oh baby I'm in charge Treat ladies like jewels and diamond rings On my fingers on my arms on everything On the streets oh my Jesus! I can't be beat So don't ask where's the beef baby here is the meat I'm gonna give you some soap a towel and a cup Cut the bum emcees are all washed up Put your women on the line with the rest of my crew So I can make love to her and annihilate you Pump, pump ( me up!) me what? (me up!)
