Black Suits Comin’ (Nod Ya Head) Lyrics

[Intro: Will Smith & Trā-Knox]
Come-come on
Come on-come-come on-on (M-M-MiB)
Black suit's comin' (The black suits comin', the black suits comin')
I'm comin', I'm comin', I'm comin', I'm comin'

[Verse 1: Will Smith]
I am the man in black, I'm back
Breakin' the back of the random attackers, so can the flack
Yo, I'm dangerous, I've been trained to bust
When a stranger force tryin' to endanger us
Praise me, y'all, don't nothin' faze me, y'all
When they see me they gaze be all crazy, y'all
They say I'm a myth, trust me if somebody riff
Out of the depths of your imaginations appears Will Smith
Black suit, the black shades, the black shoes
Black tie with the black attitude
New style black Ray-Bans, I'm stunnin', man
New hotness pitch black six hunnid, man
Don't you understand? What, you thought I wouldn't come again?
Leave you hangin' without bringin' you the fun again?
Tanglin' with the alien scum again
Mind ya manners or the black suits runnin' in

[Chorus: Will Smith & Trā-Knox]
Nod ya head (Nod ya head, the black suits comin')
Let me see you nod ya head like this (Nod ya head, the black suits comin')
Let me see you (Nod-nod ya head), like this (The black suits comin')
Let me see you bop ya head, nod ya head, come on (Come-come on)
Nod ya head (The black suits comin')
Let me see you (Nod ya head), like this (The black suits comin')
Like this, let me see you nod ya head like this (Nod ya head, the black suits comin')
(Nod ya head-head-head-head) Check it, yo
[Verse 2: Will Smith]
It's this chick, right? Serleena, makin' me sick, right?
Earth is worthless to her, she be trippin' like
Threatenin' me and my mens
, tryna get the light
Thinkin' she's superwoman, but black kryptonite
Finishin' whatever you start, son

The best lookin' crime fighter since myself in part one
Better act right, play nice and sing along
Cause K is back and he hype, what? Bring it on

[Interlude: Will Smith & Trā-Knox]
Uh, wanna brawl with me? Tryna brawl with me?
Uh, uh, what? What?
(Black suits comin') Yo, what? What?
(Ohh, oh, oh) Then, lemme, see you
Just, come on, just come on and (Oh yeah)

[Chorus: Will Smith & Trā-Knox]
Nod ya head like this (Nod ya head, the black suits comin')
Let me see you nod ya head (Nod ya head, the black suits comin')
Let me see you nod ya head like this (Nod-nod-nod ya head, the black suits comin')
Let me see you (Nod ya head, MiB)
Let me see you nod ya head (Nod ya head, the black suits comin')
Let me see you (Nod ya head), come on, come on
Let me see you (Nod ya head), like this (The black suits comin')
Let me see you (Nod ya head-head-head-head), check it, check it, yo
[Verse 3: Will Smith]
Case closed, erase my foes
Chased away by the black suits, shades, and clothes
We above the law, feds can't touch me, y'all
Highly ranked, black blank I.D. card
So disregard what you think you saw
Put that phone down now, who you think you callin', huh?
One little flash then good night dear
Just open your eyes, honey, look right here, thank you

Mission completed, I mean it, we won't be defeated
You seen it, we did it, even with weapons depleted
Galaxy defenders, don't act like you don't remember
Takin' contenders and provin' they only pretenders
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
The Men in Black is back to protect the world
When the enemy is near, the elite is here
So have no fear, just, let me, see you—

[Chorus: Will Smith & Trā-Knox]
Nod ya head (Nod ya head), come on (The black suits comin')
Nod ya head like this (Nod ya head, the black suits comin')
Let me see you (Nod-nod-nod ya head), like this (The black suits comin')
Let me see you (Nod ya head, MiB)
(Nod ya head) Woo (MiB)
(Nod ya head) Uh (The black suits comin')
(Nod ya head) Yo, yo (MiB)
(Nod ya head-head-head-head) Yo, yo
[Outro: Will Smith]
If you wanna rock then say (Oh-oh)
Tell me if you wanna rock then say (Oh-oh)
If you wanna rock then say (Oh-oh)
Come on, if you wanna rock then say (Oh-oh)
Yo, if you wanna bop then say (Oh-oh)
Tell me if you wanna rock then say (Oh-oh)
If you wanna nod then say (Oh-oh)
Tell me if you wanna rock then say (Oh-oh)
Ha

Genius Annotation

The opening track of Will Smith’s 2002 album Born to Reign, and the lead single of both this album and the soundtrack to his movie Men in Black II in the same year. “Black Suits Comin' (Nod Ya Head)” is the second song Smith made about the Men in Black, this time making reference to events and characters in the second movie and generally saying that the MiB are back for another round.

This song differentiates itself from the previous movie’s theme by not using any samples and being played out in a rap-rock style. It also features a different singer in the hook: Tra-Knox.
