Mama Said Knock You Out (For Steering Pleasure)

C'mon man
And with the local DDC news, LL Cool J with a triumphant comeback
But tonight-

Don't call it a comeback, I been here for years
I'm rockin' my peers, puttin' suckers in fear
Makin' the tears rain down like a monsoon
Listen to the bass go boom
Explosions, overpowerin'
Over the competition, I'm towerin'
Wreckin' shop when I write these lyrics
That'll make you call the cops
Don't you dare stare, you better move
Don't ever compare
Me to the rest that'll all get sliced and diced
Competition's payin' the price

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out

Don't you call this a regular jam
I'm gonna rock this land
I'm gonna take this itty-bitty world by storm
And I'm just getting warm
Just like Mohammed Ali, they called him Cassius
Watch me bash this beat like a skull
That you know I've beef with
Why don't you rip with me
The maniac psycho
And when I pull out my jammy, get ready
'Cause I might go blaow!
How you like me now?
The ripper will not allow
You to get with Mr. Swift or Rift
Listen to my gears shift
I'm blasting, I'm blasting
Kinda like shaft, so you can say I'm shafting
Oh, English filled my mind, and I came up with a funky rhyme

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out

Breakdown!

Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie

Shadow boxing when I heard you on the radio, uh
I just don't know
What made you forget that I was raw
But now I got a new tour
I'm going insane
Startin' the hurricane
Releasin' pain
Lettin' you know
You can't gain or maintain
Unless you say my name
Rippin'
Killin'
Diggin' and drillin' a hole
Pass the Old Gold

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out

Shotgun blasts are heard
When I rip and kill at will
The man of the hour, tower of power
I will devour
I'm gonna tie you up and let you understand
That I'm not your average man
When I got a jammy in my hand
Damn
Ooh
Listen to the way I slay your crew
Damage
Damage
Damage
Damage

Destruction, terror and mayhem
Pass me a sissy, so sucker I'll slay him
Farmers (What)
Farmers (What)
I'm ready (We're ready)
I think I'm gonna bomb a town
Get down
Don't you never, ever
Pull my lever
'Cause I explode
And my nine is easy to load
I gotta thank God
'Cause he gave me the strength to rock you hard

Knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said knock you out

Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie (Don't call it a comeback)
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta Boogie
Gangsta Boogie, gangsta boogie (Don't call it a comeback)
