[Fresh Prince:]

You wanna rock, Jeff lets do it a little somethin like this

From the heart of West Philly, came my man named Jazz

With mucho pizzaz and a razzmatazz

He slice the wax, cut forward, cut back, right and exact

You know the man ain't at all wack

The magnificent movie astoundin

The crowd goin loco, kick drum poundin

People surroundin us checkin the concept

Cuttin up a storm that's why the crowd is all wet

Other DJ's standin around Jeff

Tryin not to give up props to the worlds best

Shakin his hands tryin to say that he can't flow

Cause Jeff is a horse though that they all turn to

A mellow kinda fellow but in the past he

Been known to get a attitude and get right nasty

Snatch the wax, it's a fact not a figment

To get real and rip wheels its downright ignant

And when he step off, toss the confetti

He burn more wheels that Mario Andretti

Jeff is there anythin left you wanna say to the crowd



[Break - Fresh Prince] (DJ Jazzy Jeff)

(I wanna rock right now) [said slow]

Well get down now

(I wanna rock right now) [scratched]

What, what, say what, what



Yo Jeff lets go back to the old set for a second

Yo Jeff (rock the beat)

Come on, and yo Jeff (rock the beat)

Come on, and yo Jeff (rock the beat)

(Yo Jeff)



[Fresh Prince:] (DJ Jazzy Jeff)

Yo he's movin the crowd like a cloud, you gotta get a loud

Cause Jeff wants to (rock right now)

Peep the boy get swift, he got the gift

To lift, with just turntables and (rock) with

After a battle and I watched Jeff win 'em

He stomped the comp, he got cuts like venom

Doper than dope, just cope the boys def, D J J-a-zzy Jeff

On stage gettin ill beside me

Hands quicker than the eyes can see, G

After he cut ya, notice smoke still lingers

He let loose like Zeus with fire from his fingers

You wanna (rock)

Then I'm a let you (rock right now)

Hey yo Jeff gets down cause, he's superior, others inferior

I rap a whole record to try to make it clear to you

You don't get it still, I ain't gettin ill

Jeff rip the wheels, show 'em the real deal



[Fresh Prince - talking] (Jazzy Jeff - scratching)

(rock)

What?

(rock)

Huh, go

(rock)

What huh

(rock) [repeats]

1,2,1,2,3,4

Hit it



[Outro - Fresh Prince - talking] (*scratching of "rock" continues*)

In the place to be, doin it old school style

DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince about to break out

Yo fellas lets go to the island, go to the island



Himmina, humani, see, himina, humini, see,

My DJ go by the name of Jazzy, little chest big tummy

Watch the man rip the wheels and a

It's almost if the things are real and a

He's the man you heard what I said

He got a little glasses and a big forehead, HAHA

Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince for 1993, HA

And we outta here



[Talking in background and scratching continues until fade]
