[DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, "Parents Just Don't Understand"]

My parents went away on a week's vacation and
They left the keys to the brand new Porsche
Would they mind? Umm, well, of course not

[De La Soul, "Me Myself and I"]
De La Soul is from the soul
And in fact I can’t deny
When it comes to being De La
It’s just me, myself and...
[J.J. Fad, "Supersonic"]
Supersonic! (sonic, sonic, sonic)
Always rappin', always clappin', everybody always say I'm happy
If you try to hang with me you should finally truly see

When the girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face you get...

[Young MC, "Bust a Move"]
This here’s a jam for all the fellas
Tryin' to do what those ladies tell us
Get shot down cause you’re overzealous
Play hard to get, females get jealous
If you want it
Then you've got it
If you want it
Baby, you've got it
Just bust a move
[House of Pain, "Jump Around"]
I came to get down!
(No, I came to get down!)
Then get out your seat and jump around
Jump around
(Jump, jump, jump)
Jump around
(Jump, jump, jump)
Jump around
(Jump, jump, jump)
Jump up, jump up, and get down

[Ice Cube, "It Was a Good Day"]
Drunk as hell, but no throwing up
Half way home and my pager's just blowing up
I didn't have to even use my AK

[Interlude: JT & JF]
JT: Woah, I’m sorry, wait, um
Did you just say you didn’t have to use your AK?
JF: I didn’t, I didn’t, I didn’t have to use it, did I? Not today
JT: You don’t uh, you don’t have an AK, do ya, Jimmy?
JF: Nah, no I don’t
Gotta say it was a good day

[Coolio, "Gangsta's Paradise"]
Power in the money, money in the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Been spending most our lives
Living in a gangsta’s paradise
[Fugees, "Killing Me Softly"]
Strumming my pain with his fingers
(One time)
Singing my life with his words
(Two time)

[Beastie Boys, "Sabotage"]
Listen all of y’all, it’s a sabotage
Listen all of y’all, it’s a sabotage
Listen all of y’all, it’s a sabotage
Listen all of y’all, it’s a sabotage

It ain't where I been

[Outkast, "Ms. Jackson"]
I’m sorry Ms Jackson, ooh!
I am for real
Never meant to make your daughter to cry
I apologized a trillion times

[Snoop Dogg, "Drop it Like it's Hot"]
When the pimp’s in the crib, ma
Drop it like it’s hot, drop it like it’s hot, drop it like it hot
When the pigs try to get at ya
Park it like it’s hot, park it like it’s hot, park it like it’s hot

[Kanye West, "Stronger"]
Harder, better, faster, stronger
Now that that don’t don’t kill me
Can only make me stronger
I need to hurry up now
Cause I can’t wait much longer

[Nicki Minaj, "Super Bass"]

Baby, you got that super bass

[Interlude]
(Bass, bass, bass, bass
Bass, bass, bass, move it out now)
