Gettin' Down At The Amphitheater Songtext
von Common

Hey give it boogie like the BXX
Regular booger bitches get the backseat
G-bumps′ll make you buy tickets
Escape the fire tonight
Switch like Jekyll and Hyde and shit
Reckon we live and shit
This swamp water style'll keep ′em dirty and wet
I bet mills on her rhyme skills, we walk away set

Rich like topsoil, connect coins and currencies
In places that I couldn't pronounce, and then bounce

Illegal ain't illegal if it′s less than an ounce

Keep it coming ′til Iraq amounts, see it's yours
Study scrolls that includes the clause
Get your dirty paws out my bowl
Your hustle′s too old to deal with the shuffle
You exhaust me like a muffle
Get zapped and zipped in the duffle


Came to the set splashed, no Roley on the wrist
To hell with a guest list, we all up in this
For two dollars somethin got your eyes on him
But yo she pinchin my ass so we go, limb for limb
Lights studio dim, it's exact tonight
So we can drop the rap delight, on one!

Just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down

Underground underpressure, my style is the child of a lesser
God, I master like Farad
Persona in between the El Rook and, and El Debarge

Metaphorically massage verbal hajj
I take over breaks and chop loops
Glorifyin, 180 hat cats that rock with my troops

Wisdom like a tooth, mock the shits I knock loose


Ding yang Thursdays I spot juice, plugged like Posdnuos
Before you get a style let′s get a style
My style pans the crowd back and forth
You as soft as the tracks you rappin off
I pop shit, you tried to laugh it off
Actin like you had to cough and didn't hear it
My spirit sustains in the same pattern MC

Familiar sample period
Spotted where you sampled your rhyme scheme from, I ain′t clearin it
I drop science and experiment
Contractually came to terms of endearment with my label
Wanna pick out a day to smack wack niggas
I contact niggas like P.O.'s
You spit background lyrics, I rip lead flows
Wipin your nose like you need blows
Claimin it's an allergy
I react allergic to cats′ auras and how they word it

If you had weight it musta been some pussy you served with
Thoughts fermented, I roll rhythms and words tinted
Many live profess, I′m verb-centered

Just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, come on and get down

It's like grip y′all, added on to limp
Wonder why's upon this, just to flex my strength
I was the one who killed wackness so I had to do a bid
Of twelve years on the mic, before parole with Tommy kid
Infinite landscaper, green paper maker

Leave far from home with chrome rims and trims
Men′s people still take in rappin for a joke
To pimp, I rock it one-double-oh-percent
Some of you MC's should be called CM′s
Carbon monoxide on the mic exposin your polluted blood type
Y'all niggas need a visit from the brain fairy

Walk around dead like your physical's buried

Wrote your rhymes durin a earthquake cause your style′s shaky as shit
Just need to come clean and admit
That yo′ quick draw failed the test, mine was flawless
My DJ gave the scratch, yours was clawless
Your crew couldn't even measure to mine
That′s why yo' bitches is busted and mines is fine
Performin with an upper design, so back on off the plank
We bringin this big and bad like Hank

Just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down

And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, ah come on and get down

And just dance, you know you gots to feel it
Just dance, come on and get down

Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down
