R: Hello?

Is Doug E Fresh in?

D: No, he’s not in right now

D: But anyway, no more delay

Just check out the new style I display

Now ya gotta be (fresh)

And I’m D.O.U.G.I.E (fresh)

And I’m known for the…

Not for the…

The human beatbox or the entertainer

No other title could fit me plainer

In a passing generation I am a remainer

And I’m also known as the beatbox trainer

Cashin' checks, make sound FX

And after I finish rockin' Slick Rick is on next

R: Ya know it

R: Well, here’s a little somethin' that needs to be heard

Doug, I was goin' Downtown

D: Word Rick?

R: Word

D: Sure

R: All alone, no-one to be with

Stepped on the D-train at 205th

I saw a pretty girl

D: So?

R: So I sat beside her

Then she went like she was Tony the Tiger

I said, oh no, there’s been a mistake

Honey, my name’s Slick Rick not Frostie Flakes

D: Oh, golly wally

R: She was raisin' hell

She said, oh my name is Maggie but call me Michelle

Michelle, ma belle

Sont les mots qui vont, tres bien ensemble

Tres bien ensemble

Bust a move, we show and prove

A-yo Doug, do that record Jam on the Groove
