D.J. Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince
 He's the D.J, I'm the Rapper


 Now I have a story that I'd like to tell
 About this guy, you all know me I was scared as hell
 He comes to me at night when I crawl into bed
 He's burnt up like a weenie and his name is Fred
 He wears the same hat and sweater every single day
 And even if it's hot outside, he wears it anyway!
 He's home when I'm awake, but he shows up when I sleep
 I can't believe that there's a nightmare, on my street!

 It was a Saturday evening if I remember it right
 And we had just gotten off of tour last night
 So the gang and I thought that it would be groovy
 If we summoned up the posse and down watch a movie
 I got Angie, Jeff got Tina
 Ready Rock got some girl I've never seen in my life
 That was alright though, 'cuz lady was chill
 Then we dipped to the theatre set to ill
 Buggin' , cold havin' a ball
 And somethin'  'bout Elm Street was the movie we saw
 The way it started was decent
 You know, nothin' real fancy
 About this homeboy named Fred
 And this girl named Nancy
 But, word!  When it was over, I said, "Yo, that was def!"
 And everything seemed alright when we left
 But when I got home and laid down to sleep
 That began the nightmare, on my street!

 It was burnin' in my room like an oven
 My bed soaked with sweat, and man, I was buggin'
 I checked the clock, and it stopped at 12:30
 It had melted it was so darn hot, and I was thirsty
 I wanted something cool to quench my thirst
 I thought to myself, Yo! This heat is the worst!
 But when I got downstairs, I noticed something was wrong
 I was home all alone, but the TV was on.
 I thought nothin' of it as I grabbed the remote
 I pushed the power button, and I then almost choked
 When I heard this aweful voice comin' from behind, it said
 "You are my favorite rapper, but now you must die!" (?)
 Man, I ain't even wait to see who it was
 Broke inside my drawers and screamed, "So long 'cuz!"
 Got halfway up the block, I calmed down and stopped screamin'
 And thought, Oh, I get it, I must be dreamin'
 I strolled back home with a grin on my grill
 I'm thinkin' since this is a dream, I might as well get ill
 I walked in the house, the big, bad, Fresh Prince
 But Freddy killed all that noise real quick
 He grabbed me by my neck and said,
 "Here's what we'll do. We've got a lotta work here, me and you,
 The souls of your friends, you and I will claim.
 You've got the body, and I've got the brains."

 I said, "Yo, Fred.  I think you've got me all wrong.
 I ain't parnters with nobody with nails that long.
 Look, I'll be honest man, this team won't work
 The girls won't be yours, Fred, your face is all burnt"
 Fred got mad and his head started steamin'
 But I thought what the hell, I'm only dreamin'
 I said, "Please leave Fred, so I can get some sleep.
 But gimme a call, and maybe we'll hang out next week."
 I pat him on the shoulder, say, "Thanks for stoppin' by."
 Then I opened up the door and said, "Take care, guy!"
 He got mad, threw back his arm, and slashed my shirt
 I laughed at first, then thought, Hold up...that hurt.

 It wasn't a dream, man, this guy was for real
 I said, "Freddy, uh, uh, there's been an aweful mistake here."
 No further words, and then I darted upstairs
 Crashed through my door then jumped on my bed
 Pulled the covers up over my head and said,
 "Oh please, do somethin' with Fred!"
 He jumped on my bed and threw the covers with his claws
 Tried to get me...but my alarm went off. and then
 Silence
 It was a whole new day, I thought.
 Heh...I wasn't scared of him, anyway.
 Until I noticed those rips in my sheets
 And that was proof that there had been a nightmare, on my street.

 Oh man, I gotta call Jeff, I gotta call Jeff

 C'mon, c'mon...
 C'mon Jeff, answer!
 C'mon man

 Prince:  Jeff, it's Prince man, Jeff, wake up Jeff, wake up!
 Jeff:       What do you want?!
 Prince:  Jeff, wake up, man.  Listen to me. Jeff
 Jeff:       It's 3 O'clock in the morning, what do you want?
 Prince:  Jeff, listen, Jeff, would you listen to me?  Whatever you do, don't
 fall asleep.
 Jeff:       Man!
 Prince:  Jeff..listen to me.  Don't go to sleep
 Jeff:       Look, I'll talk to you tomorrow, I'm goin' to bed
 AGHH.....AGHHH
 Prince:  Jeff! Jeff! ..........Jeff, answer me, Jeff!
 Freddy:  I'm your D.J. now, Princy...HA HA HA
