Prince
1999 (Rosie & Doug E. in a Deep House)

I wanna party y'all - 1999
I came to party (1999)
I wanna get on down
Synthesizer (1999)
When there's smoke in your attic
And you got troubles on your mind
We're gonna put the funk in the basement
And gon' put the funk in time
When you got troubles on your mind
We're gonna party into 1999
{scatting}
Oh no

(Watch out now)
(1999)

Can I get Doug E. Fresh? (This good right here?)

Put-put-put up your hands and (Party, huh, party) (Come on)
Party, come on, party (Party, huh, party)
Yo (Doug E. Fresh)
This good right here (Doug E. Fresh)
This good right here (Rhyme) (Fresh, Fresh, Fresh)
Is this good right here?
You know...
Rhyming is a skill that I perfected
And all around the world I'm much respected
4 all the dope beats that's been selected
Tape 'em on your tape and then eject it
From your box and run down the block
And now the whole neighborhood's in a state of shock
Feel electricity - you wonder who's he
The rhyme seems to change and it varies
In different forms and different sizes
And paralyzes and energizes and it surprises me
I thought you knew
You don't know who it is? Huh, guess who?
I take time and patience, public relations
[Say I] understand the man of the nation
With expertise and a new release
Make another one known rapper seem deceased
And keep him under, make him wonder 9 to 5
And if he don't survive
That's just another brother that's been buried alive
Cuz time is money and money is time
And I got just enough time to say these rhymes (Tambourine)
And connect these phrase - keep a crowd in amazement
I wear a suit to important engagement
Turn the whole house out, rock the old and young
Performing delegation makes it [Chung-King] (1999)
And any song that you heard me sing
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got swing (Can you...)
And it surprises me, I thought you knew
You don't know who it is? Huh, guess who? (Can you feel it?) (1999)
Guess who, you know (Can you feel it? {x2})
Lesson in dressin', some rappers be guessin'
Short-changing and what's so depressing
Transgression, hip-hop session
All we need is spirit, heart and whole lot of flesh and bone (1999)
All rhymes my own
Kicking it wicked on the microphone
So low, how low, hip-hop desperado (1999)
Don't play me homeboy, play Lotto
Keep the party going and time pass by
And some ask the question, "Why?"
Will I do it? Run right through it?
Those that know me, they already knew (1999)
That it was done before I did it (What-what you say?)
Left an impression, how can you forget it?
The greatest entertainer, that's my name-a
Flinkin' and blinkin' on stage is my game-a (1999)
Rock the whole house till the party is through
I won't ask who cuz now you know who is...
Dou-Dou-Dou-Dou-Dou-Dou-Doug's in the house, y'all {x2}
So represent the way you move
The way you groove, the way you funkin' baby
I like it raw
I like it, I like it, yeah
Percussion
