A Tribe Called Quest - Start It Up lyrics

Your rating:

Are ya ready?  Here we go....

 [Q-Tip]
 What ya deal with...uhhh...
 What ya deal wit'...what ya deal wit'...
 Turn me up some more?

 Incognito, speakin' to ya
 Feel this, have it, makin' music
 Men and women, boys an' girls an'
 Welcome to the movement, the fifth wit' improvement
 Aristotle, Plato, Freud
 Yeah right, Abstract, never void
 I make it easy for ya'll to boogie down to
 Hard to the ground, ooh the Tribe with the sound boo
 Touch me, tease me, feed me, squeezy
 Take it easy, never sleazy
 Promise that I will not answer
 The phone when it rings love, while we do out thing love
 Never fakin', it's late, spirits
 Through the music is our mission
 Honies who were not cooler than the ghetto rebel risin'
 To overthrow a ruler
 Dearly beloved, dearly departed
 There's a reason why we did it
 Cuz it's inside the body and the hearts
 So here we are fam let's start, c'mon...

 CHORUS:
 Don't beat me in the head with the bullsh*t bat
 C'mon everybody let's start (2x)

 Ummah, Mos, Jane Doe, Willy
 Punchline, Wordsworth, SV, Chrissy
 S.O.S., Tribe Called Quest
 Get it off your chest, say it: "Tribe Called Quest!"
 Can you feel it when it hit right
 Can you feel it when we do it
 Truth, power, taste, devour
 Niggaz in the street here comes the illest beat now
 Move oceans wit' your mental
 Think it, do it, be it, embellish
 Here's another point for everyone to relish
 When Ski busts his tools all ya'll foes will embellish
 For somethin' wicked at ya'll faces
 What I see is longin', needin'
 Hey I got you with that goooooood stuff
 And ya probably won't get enough
 Ay-yo, lyrics I got it, lyrics, cadence
 Do it with fun and patience
 Funky, rhythmic, characteristic
 Ebonically lingustic wit' the ghetto futuristic
 Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay....

 CHORUS (2x)

 Beat me in the head, don't beat me in the head
 Don't beat me in the head, don't beat me in the head
 Don't beat me in the head, don't beat me in the head
 Don't beat me in the head, head, head, head...

 So here we are fam let's start, so here we are fam let's start
 So here we are fam let's start, so here we are fam let's start
 To the Ummah family lets start
 A-yo get off your ass and let's start, A-yo, here we are fam let's start
 C'mon, get off your ass and let's start, here we are fam let's start
 Here we is fam let's start, get off your ass and let's start
 Here we are fam let's start, get off your aaaassss-ah-ah-ah-ah
 Ha ha ha ha ha...let's start
