Groove Holmes (Live vs. the Biz) Lyrics

[Intro: Biz Markie]
Still here at Club Doin' the FuFu
We now bring you the Beastie Boys and Biz Markie
Thank you, thank you very much

One, two
We gettin' ready to get funky in here
We got the Beastie Boys
They're my boys
MCA, rock, rock on
And my man Mike D, rock, rock on
And the King Ad-Rock, rock, rock on
My man on the conga, rock, rock on
I can't forget my man on the keyboards, rock, rock on
And my man Cool V, rock, rock on
To the, to the beats, y'all
And you don't stop

[Verse: Biz Markie]
We give you though to the MC, I say rock the mic
You wanna get down with the funky beat I like
Is of an MC dope with an MC talk
Check out this brother, man, I'm from New York
B-I-Z M-a-the-M-a-the-M-a-the-M-a-the-M-a-the-M-a-the-A
R-a-the-R-a-the-K-I-E, with a record to wreck your day
Now I can go all night with rhymes that I write
We'll agree that it reunite, never like Woolite
You hip-a-hip, y'all, I said trip, ya'll
You wanna get down with the MC with the backbone flip
With the boogaloo flu, I'm down with a crew
That'll rock you and you, white or blue or black or green
Tiny thoughts of yellow, would you listen to me?
I'm gon' rhyme a capella just like the drummer
The drummer, get funky, get funky
[Interlude: Biz Markie]
Yo, get funky, drummer
That sound, woo
Ah, yeah
Get funky
Everybody in on three
One, two, three
Ah, this is my new band
Biz Markie and the Beastie Boys

Everybody give it up
Yo, we gonna play some basketball after this
I'm gon' sing to this

[Verse 2: Biz Markie]
And we gettin' on down with the sounds that you like
You know it's me, Biz Markie, I say, I do what I like
Well, my man, the original King Ad-Rock
And my man MCA and my man, Mike Rock
On the drums in the drum of an MCC
Did you get the original B-I-Z M-a-the-A
R-a-K-I with the E and you will like agree
The Boo-Won Tribe in the place to be
I'm with my man the King Ad-Rock
Gettin' funky with the rhymin' that just don't stop
Say, Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam
Get down, get down, just show you're at 'em
M-a-the-M-a-the-M-a-the-A-R-a-K-I-E
Every record that I'll make always be
And if you think that you can get on down
Well like a sound that's rockin' all over the town
And if you wanna hear the SKV
And the crew they call the Beasties
Mr. Q-love said we rock the house
You don't, don't wanna doubt us 'cause we turn the party out
We in the studio of the Beastie Boys
You know we have the one on the noise
With the music, with the mouth and I rock the brothers out
I get on up with a sound, I turn the party out
The original...
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: Biz Markie]
Original B
Down with my man by the name of Mike D
Can't forget MCA and King Ad-Rock
And we guarantee to put you in shock
That's what I told you
The original B-I-Z, well, I can rock it with the crew
With my man pluckin' guitar, pluckin' the bass
It don't matter we be rockin' and doggin' people's face
And every time that you hear
The original and you know that I'm never there
And wanna get down 'cause I put you in a trance
Oh, you wanna get funky?

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro: Biz Markie]
Hey, we gettin' funky in here
A-get, a-get, a-gettin' funky
A-get, a-get, a-gettin' funky
I get, eh, eh, eh, eh, funky, funky, funky, funky, funky
Get, a-gettin' funky
Get, a-gettin' funky
Get, a-gettin' funky
Get, a-gettin' funky
That is right
Right about now, I'd like to say good night
This is a new rendition
We call it, "Gettin' Funky With The Beastie Boys"
Shit, check out this shake
Yo, we gon' end it on a one-two-three note
Are you ready?
One, two
One, two, three, ah
