Superappin'

By Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five (2000)
On album Superrappin' (1979)

Superrappin'
It was a party night, everybody was breaking
The highs were screaming and the bass was shaking
And it won't be long till everybody knowin' that
Flash was on the beat box going that
Flash was on the beat box going that
Flash was on the beat box going
And, and, and, and
Sha-na-na
Italian, Caucasian, Japanese
Spanish, Indian, Negro, Vi-et-namese
M.C's, disc jockeys
To all the fly kids and the young ladies
Introducing the crew ya got to see to believe
We're one, two, three, four, five M.C's
I'm Melle Mel and I rock it so well
And I'm Mr. Ness because I rocks the best
I'm Rahiem in all the ladies' dreams
And I'm Cowboy to make ya jump for joy
I'm Creole, solid gold
The Kid Creole playing the role
Dig this, we're the Furious Five plus Grandmaster Flash
Giving you a blast and Sho'nuff class
So to prove to ya all, we're second to none
We're gonna make five M.C's sound like one
Ya gotta dip dip dive, so so socialize
Clean out your ears and then open your eyes
And then pay at the door as a donation
To hear the best sounds in creation
He's a disco dream of a mean machine
And when it comes to size, ya see what we mean
Ya see his name is not found in the hall of fame
But he'll shock and amaze and make ya feel shame
He takes a lime from a lemon
And from a lemon to a lime
He cuts the beat in half the time
And as sure is 3 times 2 is 6
You'll say Flash is the king of the quick mix
We're five M.C's and we're on our own
And we're the most well known, on the microphone
And we throw down hard and we aim to please
With finesse to impress all the young ladies
We got rhymes galore and that's a fact
And the satisfaction guaranteed to cause a heart attack
We are the best as you can see
So eliminate the possibility
That to be an e-m-c-e-e
Is not a threat to society
Say step by step
Stride by stride
I know the fly young lady would like to ride
In my Mercedes, 'young ladies'
In my Mercedes, 'young ladies'
If my Mercedes breakdown and dog my grill
I will ahh, drive up in a new Seville
If my Seville break down, I take it on back
I will ahh, dog my grill in a new Cadillac
My Cadillac break down, i'm just too much
I will ahh, shock your mind in a new Star Stutz
And if a Stutz break down, I make another choice
I will ahh, dog my grill in a new Rolls Royce
And if a Royce break down, I'll be out in the rain
And then forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it
Huh, take the train
Take the train, take the train
Can't, won't, don't stop, rockin' to the rhythm
Cause I, I get down, cause I, I get down, cause I, I get down
[Verse 2: Kid Creole]
Ladies who don't know my name
And you fellas who don't know my game
Yes I'm called the prince of soul
But others call me the Kid Creole
The M.C delight, young ladies bite
When I'm on the mike, I rock the house right
I'm the dedicated prince, heart of solid gold
Rockin to the rhythm while I'm playing the role
A cool calm customer, the master plan
It takes a sucker's man to try to jump my hand
And the things I do and what I say
Affect a lot of people in the strangest way
Makes them clap their hands and say 'all right'
Creole to the broad daylight
Mr. Ness, my mellow, what he look like
With ya on the mike
[Verse 3: Mr. Ness]
Let's a rock y'all, a let's a rock the house
Because the Furious Five are gonna turn it out
So young ladies, if you think ya heard
You heard the best rap, you heard the best word
Yes, it's true that we got the fuss
Because it can't be the best unless it came from us
There's five of us and we take no stuff
We coming through the city, we coming through rough
We number one ain't nothin' you can do
And if you wanna get down we'll rock you too
So free-formin y'all, you don't stop
Come on, come on and let me see 'a rock rock
Cowboy, they say you're from the bronx
So why don't you rock the beat and add a little spunk
[Verse 4: Cowboy]
Yes yes, y'all, ya don't stop
Come on fly girls, I wanna hit the top
I am the c-o-w-b-o-y
Why the man so bad that ya deny
You better watch your woman cause I'll tell you why
Cause I'm Cowboy, I might give her a try
They call me Keith Keith
The young ladies' relief
Know as the man of romance and make you dance
Can any of you ladies stand a chance?
I'm Cowboy and I'm shockin the house
Ya say, ya say 1, 2, 1 more is 3
Ah, Melle Mel come on, whatcha got for me?
[Verse 5: Melle Mel]
To the hip hop, a hip hop, a don't stop, don't stop that body rock
Ah, Just get up out your seat and get ready to clap
Because ah, Melle Mel is starting to rap
And ever since I talked at my very first party
I felt I could make myself somebody
It was something in my heart from the very start
I could see myself at the top of the chart
Rapping on the mic, making cold cold cash
With a jockey spinnin for me called DJ Flash
Signing autographs for the the young and old
Wearing big time silver and solid gold
My name on the radio and in the magazine
My picture on the TV screen
It's ain't like that yet, but -huh- you'll see
I got potential and you will agree
I'm coming up and I got a step above the rest
Cause I'm using that ladder they call success
You say 1-2-3-4-5-6-7
Rap like hell and make it sound like heaven
A 7-6-5-4-3-2-1 come on Rahiem come and get some
[Verse 6: Rahiem]
Yes yes y'all, ya don't stop, come on, come on, huh
I wanna hit the top
I'm a one of a kind, the man supreme
I know I'm in all, all the ladies' dreams
I'm the r-a-h and the i-e-m
I put a wiggle in your butt if a tell me when
I'm the son of a gun with the hell of a fire
Now gather, mess around i'll take ya all higher
My clientele climb the great big boost/boots
I'm the give it up and turn it loose, huh
All you fly girls that don't know my game
Come up and talk to me and we'll tell you all the same
When ya wake up in the night in a hell of a dream
You know ya been possessed by the voice of Rahiem
In all the ladies' dreams
[Verse 7: Melle Mel]
And makin' more currency than any M.C
And if the dream will turn to reality
And Melle Mel'll be makin' money
Mr. Ness, make makin' money
Rahiem, makin' money
Cowboy , make makin' money
Creole, makin' money
DJ Flash, make makin' money
Hit it
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 8: ?]
Take your time and you will agree
That Black Door got good security
So when you walk through the door, just do me a favor
Be sure to be on your best behavior
Young man, what do you wanna do
When the party is through
And a young lady wanna go home with you
You search your pocket, ya soon aware
That you don't have enough for cab fare
Then you say to yourself what a mistake ya' made
Your heart start pumpin' that ol' Kool-Aid
When she walks to you and she starts to say
'Call one-double-o' it's down with o.j
And you pave the way....
Young ladies a like, young ladies galore, young ladies, we do adore
From the way they move and the way they smile
It make's me admire their grace and style
There is not room for ? belief
Thats the only way that kid creole can relieve
Or rock the house
I'm the scorpio and I will not flow
I need 10 fly girls before I go
Now when the night is done
You come and get some
Then you meet Mr Ness
And you have some fun
Till you walk up real soon
And you head for my place
And when you get in my room
You touch my face and then you start to chase
And then you grab em' by the waist
And then I lay you right back upon a steady pace
I'm the {on the go} of the rodeo
Ya' say I ride in the rain till it's time to go
I'm the buckaroo of the boogaloo
All the young ladies roll when he pass through
I got 2 jazzy ladies in deep deep check
Both ladies in the discotheque
I got 1 in the front and 1 behind
I'm in the middle cause they're both mine
Yes yes y'all, you don't stop
Ah that body rock
From the shores of California to the streets of New York
Ain't nothing sweeter that ya walk
Cause thats the way you front
You got hair everywhere, skin so fair
A dynamic personality, a lot of flair
With your flashy clothes and your photogenic pose
You're as sharp as a {card?} on the step of a floor
So petite and neat you're huh, to sweet
So great i'm amazed at the [?]
The way you swerve your curves
It really wrecks my nerves
You're everything that a man deserves
So women of the world {ain't meant to be?}
Because women of the world make men like me
Yes, yes, y'all
You don't stop
Come on, come on, huh
I wanna hit the top
