It's Tricky lyrics

This beat is my recital

I think it's very vital

To rock a rhyme

That's right on time

It's tricky tricky yo here we go

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...it's Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...Tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tricky) Tricky

I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly

Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early

These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me

Or spend some time and rock a rhyme, I said "It's not that easy"

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...(How is it D?) It's Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Trrrrrricky)

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...Tricky (Tricky) Tricky

In New York the people talk and try to make us rhyme

They really (hawk) but we just (walk) because we have no time

And in the city it's a pity cause we just can't hide

Tinted windows don't mean nothin', they know who's inside

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...(How is it D?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky) huh!

When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time

I'm not singin', phone keep ringin' cause I make up a rhyme

I'm not braggin', people naggin' cause they think I'm a star

Always tearin' what I'm wearin', I think they're goin' too far

A girl named Carol follows Daryll every gig we play

Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she's jockin' Jay

I ain't lyin', girls be cryin' cause I'm on TV

They even bother my poor father cause he's down with me

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...(How is it?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's Tricky...Tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tr-Tr-Tr-Tricky) Tr-tr-tr...

We are not thugs (we don't use drugs) but you assume (on your own)

They offer coke (and lots of dope) but we just leave it alone

It's like that y'all (y'all), but we don't quit

You keep on (rock!) shock! cause this is it...
