It’s Tricky Songtext
von Dinosaur Pile‐Up

This speech is my recital, I think it′s very vital
To rock (a rhyme), that's right (on time)
"It′s Tricky" is the title, 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 (what), it′s tricky (tricky), tricky (tricky)

I met this little girlie (whoo!)
Her hair was kinda curly (uh-huh)
Went to her house and bust her out
I had to leave real early (hey!)
These girls are really sleazy (ah!)
All they just say is please me (what?)
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 (whoo), 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 (what), 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 (oh my God, I love you)

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 (tricky)
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) wow!

Tricky, tricky, yeah
Tricky (tricky), tricky (tricky), whoo
Tricky, tricky, yeah
Tricky (tricky), tricky (tricky), whoo
Uh, yeah, whoa

When I wake up, people take up mostly all of my time
I'm not singin′, phone keeps 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 Connie follows Mikey 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 mother ′cause she′s down with me


It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that′s right on time
It's tricky (what?), 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, It's tricky (tricky), tricky (tricky) whoo

Tricky, tricky, yeah
Tricky, tricky, whoo (what, what, what)
Tricky, tricky, yeah
Tricky, tricky -

It′s tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that′s right on time
It's tricky (what?) 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, it′s tricky, tricky
