[Introduction: Shared] Now, we may be a little chubby, but don't feel slump We guarantee ya' one thing; we can surely come To the party, and rock the house As we harmonize, and start to turn it out So bust a fresh move, and take it from me Listen to the fierce sound of the Disco Three Ha, ha!
[Big Buff Love beatbox]
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 1: Shared] Prince Markie Dee Kool Rock-Ski The Human Beat Box providing the beat One-thousand pounds put all together The disco brothers to last forever And as we enter the room, you know the ground starts quaking The crowd starts breaking And our body starts shaking to the funky rhythm Of a beat called Fats So bust a fresh move, individual rap, Markie Dee
[Verse 2: Prince Markie Dee] Now I'm Markie Dee, but you can call me the Prince And I have a slight problem that I couldn’t solve since I was a child see I overate At a steady pace rate, yeah I’m overweight But it ain't no thing 'cause I'm always fresh And guaranteed to pass any MC contest Like M&M candy will melt in your hand To be a real live lover is where I stand Now to some it might be funny and some sort of gory But listen to the words as I tell my story Now it started out when I was very small I devoured chocolate cake, plates, candles and all For breakfast, it was cheese and five pounds of bacon And halfway through my tummy starts to shakin' Toast on the side, five gallons of juice And that was just for breakfast when I start to get loose
[Chorus] Fat Boys You know they're down by law Fat Boys They givin' you much, much more
[Verse 3: Kool Rock-Ski] Now my name is Kool Rock, last part is Ski And I am the captain rocker of the Disco Three You see I got pizzazz, style, and grace Just one slight problem; I'm a little overweight But my walk is funky, my glow tip top Every time I touch a girl, they always yell stop Because around my block I'm the king of the slop But I know one thing my heart keeps inside It says do the right thing and you will survive People still put me down 'cause I'm the mess of the town But I got one thing that's hard to be found I got class, yes; that's right, ladies I'm a little overweight but I'll pass, huh I'm like glass, yes I'm easy to break And if you get me wrong that's a chance you take Yes my word is bond and that's no mistake Yes, you've heard my words and that's my rap So party people rock on to the beat called Fat The beat called Fats will rock the spot So party people rock on to The Human Beat Box
[Big Buff Love beatbox]
[Verse 4: Prince Markie Dee] To all the ladies in the place I'm the prince of ease And you have to scream please If I'm on the freeze 12 below zero or steamin' hot 'Cause if you mess with the Prince, you're sure to get shot 'Cause I'm a ladies' man, a number one choice Nominated five times for my platinum voice Five foot eight, I got hazel eyes And if you think I'm soft, you're in for a surprise 'Cause I'm hard as a rock and my name ain't Tom Trying to battle me is like defusing a bomb The red wire, the orange, the purple and blue One MC ain't enough, you're gonna need two To beat me, so here's your chance Get in your stance, get ready to dance Make a little romance Smoking things from plants Taking pictures all night, I'm freelance, baby doll
[Chorus] Fat Boys You know they're down by law Fat Boys They givin' you much, much more
[Verse 5: Kool Rock-Ski] Now I'm the capital K known as Kool Rock-Ski And I'm a super-bad body-rocking tough MC Always on fire at the flick of a Bic 'Cause I'm the ace of the place and the ultimate The best of the rest, reaching for success And on the microphone I have style and finesse Don't talk no bull, got too much pull And to rock a party right, I can do that too Get slack never wack, take your full contact 'Cause I'm the chief of the East on top of the stack 'Cause I can use my mic as a money-making tool 'Cause I'm the master of the rhyme and the MC school 'Cause I'm Kool Rock-Ski, the dominating MC And when I'm on the stage your ladies scream for me We're fat, we're fat, we could never be wack And if they go for that then we'll be back!
[Chorus] Fat Boys You know they're down by law Fat Boys They givin' you much, much more
