MC Zappa - The Jam Lyrics

Kick it!

[Verse 1: MC Zappa]

Eternally blessed; I son all rappers wit' no paternity test

When I'm Smashin', my mains are neither Kirby or Ness

I'm so sick of the suckers with the poor prose

That I gotta go off like a whore's clothes

You know my sound is heavier than a cinder block

All eyes are on me when I begin to rock

Listen to the bass explode like a bombshell

Somebody's always watchin' me 'cuz I rock well

No need to wonder why I'm in the public eye

It's cut and dry; 'cuz I'm funkier than Funka Fize

I'm at the top of the class, and I set the curve

Thinkin' you could step to me? Where did you get the nerve?

MCs can't get a moment of peace, yo

'Cuz they all wonderin' when the flowin' will cease

Like EPMD, I'm handlin' business

And you know that this, is the jam!

[Chorus]
(scratched) Jam!
(scratched Let me hear you say---
(scratched) Jam!
(scratched) Jam!

[Verse 2: MC Zappa]

I'm so ill, you can never develop a cure

So the rhymes are always dope; you can bet it for sure

Wit' my technique, I wreck weak toys and suckas

And I'm guaranteed to bring both the noise and ruckus

Zen pen; I write rhymes of infinite depth

Try to bite, and you'll be dead before you finish the breath

My rhyme scheme is so sharp, you'll get impaled

Don't even try to step to me, because ya shit's stale

I go below the surface like a submarine

You can call me a soul surgeon 'cuz my cuts are clean

The flex is a guillotine; I'm slicin' appendages

Crematin' wit' rhymes; they say I'm nice with the sentences

I be cookin' MCs like hash browns

So you better back up unless you tryna get smacked down

I'm playin' sucka MCs out like a baby grand; the ladies' man

MC Zappa be makin' crazy jams

[Chorus]
(scratched) Jam!
(scratched) Let me hear you say---
(scratched) Jam!
(scratched) Jam!

[Verse 3: MC Zappa]

So many suckas' rhymes are weaker than styrofoam

So I'm strikin' fear and commandeerin' the microphone

And of course, I slam it hard like a Charizard

And blast toys who think I'm somethin' to play wit'

It's all a game, and I am the protagonist

Of The Jam; another one of Zappa's hits

This record just ain't like no other

My flow so smooth, ya can't believe it ain't butter

Damn; I'm goin' in like I got a curfew

Not a waiter, but if you want beef, I'll serve you

Bringin' hell like Halloween, but this ain't a trick-or-treat

For me to defeat sucka MCs is a simple feat

Yo, I got more rhymes than Shonda

And damn, it's just so scandalous

I'm gettin' away wit' murder on the microphone

I'll strike ya dome wit' my Bit-Hop beats; this is the jam

[Chorus]
(scratched) Jam!
(scratched) Let me hear you say---
(scratched) Jam!
(scratched) Jam!
(scratched) Jam!
