[00:00.00]Strictly Business - EPMD
[00:02.73]Lyrics by：Parrish Smith/Erick Sermon
[00:05.47]Composed by：Erick Sermo
[00:08.21]I shot the sheriff
[00:13.34]Don't get too close because you might get shot
[00:20.84]I shot the sheriff
[00:22.99]Try to answer to the
[00:23.72]Master or the MC rap God is no joke
[00:25.87]On the lyric-it's hard to be modest
[00:27.96]I knew I was the man with the master plan
[00:30.25]To make you wiggle and jiggle like gelatin
[00:32.85]Just think while I sink into the brain structure
[00:35.57]Don't sleep on the E
[00:36.39]You see somethin' might rupture
[00:37.98]It don't take time for me to blow your mind
[00:40.15]Take a second to wrec
[00:41.23]K it because you're dumb and blind
[00:42.75]So just lounge 'cause you're a MC clown
[00:45.08]Go join the circus EPMD's in town
[00:47.96]Total chaos no mass confusion
[00:50.54]Rhymes so hypnotizin' known to 'cause an illusion
[00:52.62]Like a magician who pulls a rabbit out a hat son
[00:55.67]I pull them all like a 44 Magnum
[00:57.55]MC freeze stop look and listen and try to imagine
[00:59.94]It's travellin' the speed of light
[01:01.54]But everything's motion
[01:02.67]Is frightening plus the thought you alone
[01:04.91]You now enter dimension called the Twilight Zone
[01:07.43]You're terrified plus you can't bear the thought
[01:10.12]You and I one-on-one in the land of the lost
[01:12.60]You start to shiver but then you scream my friend
[01:14.90]Yo wake up Muttley because you're dreamin' again
[01:17.57]But next time I'm on the
[01:18.62]Scene do not try to diss us
[01:20.09]Keep your mouth shut sucker duck
[01:21.49]Because I'm strictly business
[01:22.70]I shot the sheriff
[01:25.02]Don't get too close because you might get shot
[01:27.71]I shot the sheriff
[01:30.15]Don't get too close because you might get shot
[01:32.36]This is the rap season where the E starts pleasin'
[01:35.21]Girls around the world no need to be skeezin'
[01:37.46]When I roll I stroll cool always pack a tool
[01:39.97]Just in case
[01:40.78]Just in case a brother acts a fool
[01:42.45]I've got the energy to put
[01:43.88]The girls in the frenzy
[01:44.86]Put it in shock when
[01:45.73]I rock give it up I'm not stingy
[01:47.53]Make sure I don't bore when I'm on the dance floor
[01:50.27]Get busy boy
[01:51.18]Like you never saw before
[01:52.55]Rhyme flow good to go
[01:55.00]After the show I'll pull your ho boy
[01:57.84]Yo you sniff blow hell no
[02:00.08]I got my whole life ahead
[02:00.88]Of me no time to be sniffin'
[02:02.66]And my parents find out then they start riffin'
[02:05.40]So I stay a-okay 'cause I'm the E the R-I-C-K
[02:09.91]MC's look me in my face then their eyes get weak
[02:12.68]Pulse rate descends heart rate increases
[02:14.69]It's like beam me up
[02:15.77]Scotty I control your body
[02:17.31]I'm as deadly as AIDS when it's time to rock a party
[02:20.11]And all due respect when I say mic check
[02:22.39]Let a sucker slide once then I break his neck
[02:25.10]So when I say jump you reply
[02:26.56]How high
[02:27.34]Because I'm takin' no prisoners
[02:28.57]So don't play hero and die
[02:29.75]You're just a soldier and I'm a green beret
[02:32.59]I do not think twice about the MC's I slay
[02:34.82]So if you want to battle I highly recommend this
[02:37.26]Bring your dog mom and dad
[02:38.69]Be'cause I'm strictly business
[02:39.93]I shot the sheriff
[02:42.20]Don't get too close because you might get shot
[02:45.03]I shot the sheriff
[02:47.39]Don't get too close because you might get shot
[02:49.96]Yo yo you're still pickin' on that four-leaf clover
[02:52.23]Bring in the Sandman sucker because it's over
[02:54.83]My name is Erick Sermon and I'm back again
[02:57.01]I see the heads still turnin' and my so-called friends
[02:59.84]They smile in my face behind my back they talk trash
[03:02.44]Mad and stuff because they don't have cash
[03:04.66]Like the E-double or the PMD
[03:07.21]He drives a corvette I drive a Samurai Suzuki
[03:09.66]I'm a locksmith with the key to fame
[03:12.23]Never high on myself always stay the same
[03:14.59]Play a lot because I'm hot like a horse I trot
[03:17.12]Around the track and back fatigued no I'm not
[03:19.50]Well I'm the mellow the fellow
[03:21.03]The one who likes to say hello
[03:22.46]To a fly girl that is good to go
[03:24.66]With the slow tempo and the off-beat rhyme flow
[03:27.24]'Cause when I am in action there is no time for maxin'
[03:29.49]Or relaxin' just reactin' and subtractin'
[03:32.28]On a sucker MC who mouth keeps on yappin' and flappin'
[03:35.14]I lose my cool then I'll start slappin' and smackin'
[03:37.75]You wanna roll then Albee start jackin' and cappin'
[03:39.94]No time to lounge I'm packin' and strappin'
[03:41.98]At my point of attack I soar at you like an eagle
[03:44.77]I'm the sheriff and bitin' is illegal
[03:47.33]So next time in town I highly recommend this
[03:50.03]You gots to chill because I'm strictly business
