Batterram Lyrics

<br />
<br />
In New York (it's comin)<br />
<br />
In Detroit (it's comin)<br />
<br />
In L.A. (it's comin<br />
<br />
No, it's here)<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />

[ VERSE 1: Toddy Tee ]<br />
<br />
Drug busters, you better beware<br />
<br />
And don't turn your head as if you don't care<br />
<br />
(Because they got it) they got it, they say they got you<br />
<br />
Right in their hands and they don't need no clue<br />
<br />
They say they're sick and tired of snatchin down bars<br />
<br />
Cause on the tow trucks it's makin it hard<br />
<br />
And by the time they get in-to your pad<br />
<br />
You done flushed it down the toilet and now they're mad<br />
<br />
And so they're mad as hell and take you to jail<br />
<br />
But you're out the next minute cause you post bail<br />
<br />
Then on the very next day you say, "What the heck?"<br />
<br />
You get a letter in the mail and it's a D.A. reject<br />
<br />
And you're jumpin up and down cause it ain't no case<br />
<br />
And to the police that is a waste<br />
<br />
But yeah rockman, you'll see it soon<br />
<br />
And you won't hear a snatch, you'll hear a boom<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You can't stop it, baby<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />
<br />
You can't stop it, baby<br />

<br />
(You were so high) that night when your eyes was tight<br />
<br />
And you didn't even notice the Batterram lights<br />
<br />
(So gone) so gone that when they said it was there<br />
<br />
You just shook your head and said, "I don't care"<br />
<br />
(Based out) based out without no doubt<br />
<br />
That when they said "give up" you cussed em out<br />
<br />
And when your dopebustin friends drove up in their car<br />
<br />
You stood out your chest and started actin hard<br />
<br />
You took off your Fila shirt and your Reebok shoes<br />
<br />
And had the nerve to call the police a bunch of fools<br />
<br />
You called em pigs (sissies) and even punks<br />
<br />
While the Batterram battery needed a jump<br />
<br />
And by the time it got started you fell to the floor<br />
<br />
And that's when the cops said they can't take no more<br />
<br />
And you were so damn high, my little friend<br />
<br />
That you didn't know your living room was in your den<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You can't stop it, baby<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />
<br />
You can't stop it, baby<br />

<br />
Well, I would sit at home about to eat dinner<br />
<br />
Had a hard time at work and my day was gettin thinner<br />
<br />
My kids was in the room watchin Mighty Mouse<br />
<br />
And my wife was gettin ready to leave the house<br />
<br />
But as she opened the door she seen a flare<br />
<br />
It was a undercover cop, he was standin there<br />
<br />
So she hollered back to me, "Honey, come and see<br />
<br />
Just who this strange man could be"<br />
<br />
But when I went to the door I thought it was a dud<br />
<br />
Cause he kept asking me to sell him drugs<br />
<br />
I said, "Listen homeboy, what you talkin about?<br />
<br />
You're mistakin my pad for a rockhouse<br />
<br />
Well, I know to you we all look the same<br />
<br />
But I'm not the one slingin caine<br />
<br />
I work nine to five and ain't a damn thing changed<br />
<br />
And I don't have time for the hustler's game"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You can't stop it, baby<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The Batterram<br />
<br />
You can't stop it, baby<br />

<br />
Mayor of the city, what you're tryin to do?<br />
<br />
They say they voted you in in '82<br />
<br />
(But on the next term) huh, without no doubt<br />
<br />
They say they gon' vote your jack ass out<br />
<br />
Because you musta been crazy or half-way wack<br />
<br />
(To legalize somethin that works like that)<br />
<br />
And the Chief of Police says he just might<br />
<br />
(Flatten out every house he sees on sight)<br />
<br />
Because he say the rockman is takin him for a fool<br />
<br />
And for some damn reason it just ain't cool<br />
<br />
And when he drives down the street, I tell you the truth<br />
<br />
He gets no respect, they call his force F Troop<br />
<br />
He can't stand it, he can't take no more<br />
<br />
And now he's gonna have you all fall into the floor<br />
<br />
And Mister Rockman, you better stop some day<br />
<br />
Hang it up homeboy, your house will pay<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You can't stop it, baby<br />

You can't stop it, baby<br />

<br />
<br />
(Went through my pad)<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
And if you didn't see the Batterram cross your line<br />
<br />
(Honey boon) honey boon, I'm tellin you - give it time
