We’re gonna talk about Buddy on this plate
But before we let the herd out the gate
Make sure the all the levels are straight out the jungle
(The Jungle, the Jungle, the Brothers, the Brothers)
AFRIKA:

Black medallions no gold
Hangin’ out wit Pos hangin’ out wit Mase
Buddy buddy buddy all in my face

My current basic ring tone from De La Soul is Dead.
“Yes, this is Miss Renee king from Philadelphia. I want you to please
Give me a call on area code 215-222-4209 and I’m calling in reference
to the music business. Thank you.”

Dove:
Hey how ya doin’
Sorry ya can’t get through
Why don’t you leave your name
And your number
And I’ll get back to you
Hey how are ya doin’
Sorry ya can’t get through
But leave your name (uh)
And your number
And I’ll get back to you.

Once again it’s another rap bandit
Fiending at I and I can’t stand it
Wanna be down with the Day-Glo
Knocking on my door, saying, “a yo yo”
Knocking on my door, saying, “a yo yo”
“i got a funky new tune with a fly banjo”
I can’t understand what the problem is
I find it hard enough dealing with my own biz
How’d they get my name and number
Then I stop to think and wonder
Bout a plan, yo man, I gotta step out town
You wanna call me up? take my number down
It’s 222-2222
I got an answering machine that can talk to you
It goes
