Sylvia Robinson - We Want To Rock lyrics

There's a new style of music that's going around And it's hitting the people from town to town Some call it emceeing some call it rap If you're rocking to the music you know where it's at A deejay plays a record that will make you move While the rapper then helps you get in the groove They relate to you a message that's on their mind That makes your body move from left to right So we're the Crash Crew and we are unique When you listen to our music you know it's a treat So come on everybody get up out of your seat And rock with us until the end of the week So come inside, you don't need a reservation Party your best without hesitation Old and young, come and get some Because the Crash Crew, yeah, is number one, huh! Come on, all the ladies in the house Let me hear you say "Ow" (Ow!) Say "Ow" (Ow!), home boys make some noise Say "Ho" (Ho!), say "Ho" (Ho!) We're the 5 emcees with utmost finesse Got girls in the east and girls in the west Got girls in the north and girls in the south Check out the way we call 'em all out We'll I'm MC Reggie Reg, some call me rap one Because I get on the mic and be second to none Well I'm Barry B-Stro, I'm rapper number two And I came here tonight just to talk to you Well I'm MC ShuBee, rapper number three And all the young ladies in love with me And I'm EK Mike C, rapper number four Got all the fly girls knocking at my door And I'm the mellow G-Man, rapper number five Yes in any battle I do survive So we're the Crash Crew so solid and smooth All the young ladies want to catch our groove Catch, catch it, yeah Catch it if you can Say, "Do what you like" (Do what you like!) Say, "Do anything" (Do anything!) Go crazy Look up front and you pay close attention All you party people and all you competition Listen and let the story be told About the Crew that's ready to go for the gold DJ Darryl C is of a special breed He's got the antidote the party people need We're the force of the 5 and we want to be known As the baritones of the microphone We got rhymes alike we got rhymes galore We've got so many rhymes and a couple awards From top to bottom and bottom to top That it just don't quit and it just don't stop Come on everybody, let's rock the spot [Reggie Reg] Well I'm MC Reggie Reg Sinister of sound My voice makes you feel in Sensurround We're taking off On a disco flight and If you want to come, hold on tight Because we'll be traveling with utmost force Making sure that we plan a straight course, 'cause We're the Crash Crew your A-1 boss [Barry B-Stro] I'm the B dash S the T-R-O When you put it all together it spells B-Stro Life is filled with highs Life is filled with lows It's the same old story You know how it goes One day you're happy, one day you're sad One day you're tired, one day you're mad Life does what you want it to do Try to be happier, like the Crash Crew Say, "Do what you like" (Do what you like!) Say, "Do anything" (Do anything!) Go crazy [La ShuBee] Keep on striving towards your goals ShuBee got his, don't let yours go Don't let nobody fool you around Trying to turn your life upside down Don't be no fool just stay in school And let the deejay teach the golden rule Let's stop the robbing and k**ing each other Come on everybody Let's love one another, right now [EK Mike C] Well, I'm EK Mike C, fine as can be Girls leave their man to mess with me Brown eyes black hair Y'all can never compare As I walk down the street then you stop and stare You look into my eyes and there's sparkle glare We can do a little something we both can share Do you know what he means? I'm like a s** machine [G-Man] It's as plain as day that's what they say That when G-Man raps you'll want to stay When all the competition wants to run away And remove themselves from the field of play With a photogenic smile comes a power and style I'll make each and every minute worth your while Savoir faire and young, how's a side he swung Rock a rhyme any time with the breath of my lungs So unique and complete and oh so sweet Like a new sports car, made for the elite We want to rock We want to rock Don't stop We'll keep on rocking We want to rock We want to rock Don't stop Big shot do you wanna rock? There's 1-2-3-4-5 of us and We came to make you move, and To the competition We've got something to prove So shake your boom-boom Boom-boom, boom-boom And get on down, and get on down
