EPMD - So Whatcha Sayin' Lyrics

The employees of the year, yeah, we back to work
I took time off, while other rappers got jerked
Due to the fact that they whack in their track
Have to go back an' stack 'cause they lack
The ingredients, EPMD an' Scratch for that

Yo, I'm the hip hopper, plus the show shocker
Down with MD, yes, the Microphone Doctor
One wrecks, the other destroys
An' if you think you ready to mess, kill the noise

We don't play when it's time to slay
I get a cut from my homey, yo, then I lay
Back an' mack an' all the rhymes I pack
An' wait for a sucker to jump an' then attack

Well, I'm known to be the master in the MC field
No respect in 87, 88, you kneel
'Cause I produce an' get loose, when it's time to perform
Wax a sucker like Mop an' Glow, that's word bond

Back a second time, but on a different assignment
To do a sucker new jack, who needs a rappin' alignment
'Cause I'm the cream of the crop, when it's time to do a show
Girlies on my jock for my dope intro

As I glance at E Double, king microphone wrecker
Turn on my cordless, sayin' mic checka
To the ladies an' all party goers
Some call me P. an' others slow flower
Brothers on my jock, for the way I hold a piece of steel

So what you sayin'? So what you sayin'?

Puttin' heads to bed, straight out the box
MCs are jumpin' out shoes an' socks
I'm not playin', understand what I'm sayin'
Catch a sucker in my way, an' I'm slayin'

Takin' no shorts, showin' vital signs
You can tell by my lines that I'm gettin' mines
In 99 because I'm fine as wine
Sit back an' recline, watch the sun shine

Take a stroll, listen to rock 'n' roll
Catch a flick at the movies, dance a bowl
'Cause I chose to refuse to slack while I'm back
I take a chance, Jack, so I must attack
With knick knack paddy whack so I won't lack
All my style is def an' as deadly as crack

While I'm slayin', music's playin', a sucker is delayin'
I battle in the trenches where the funky be playin'
'Cause with a partner like E Double, don't come a dime a dozen
A kin not blood related but you can call us cousins

'Cause as we climb the charts, better known as statistics
Brothers on my jock while we kickin' ballistics
Droppin' hits like 'I'm housin'', 'You gots ta chill' an' more
The proof is in the puddin', yo, check the Billboard

People round town talkin' this an' that
Of how we sound like the R an' our music was whack
Dropped the album 'Strictly Business' an' you thought we was fold
Thirty days later, the LP went gold

So what you sayin'? So what you sayin'?

Now party people, it's time for the exquisite
No 'knock knock who that, who's there, or who is it?'
It's the E R I C K, yes, the Boy Wonder
No fouls, no bleeps, no bloops an' no blunders

So hot, so you can say I'm blazin'
Or Luther Vandross says, yo' I am
'So amazin' an' I've been waitin''
For a sucker to attack, yo, me the E. Double
'Cause me an' PMDs like the funky fresh couple

I fight fire with fire, that's why most retired
An' when we needed a piss boy, you was hired
You was mesmerized, for that style that we was bringin'
In the all out battle, P. comes out swingin'

'Cause I'm just the type of brother that's out to get mines
An' if the odd's against me, I still drop lines
An' get mines on time that's why most resign
Sit in my La-Z-Boy chair, relax my head an' recline
Sip a Pepsi or Coke, with a twist of lime
Or crack a 40 O. an' then I go for mine

So what you sayin'? So what you sayin'?
