I don't hear leggo my eggo. Is that the only thing still under review?

2011-04-10T10:39:19.080-04:00

I agree with Jeff re: "leggo my eggo" - gotta be a pop culture reference! "Let go my echo" just doesn't make as much sense...

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I revised the lyrics for the comments that I agree with. For the rest, I'll need more votes before I make changes.

I wish I knew what the song was about too. This song has me worried about the rest of the album.

For the count..I think Adrock says lesser.

"I got the ball and I see the lane and.."...

2011-04-10T01:37:23.095-04:00

"I got the ball and I see the lane and.."

throwing an 'an' or 'and' at the end of a line to add a syllable in order to complete the rhyme, and also segue into the next verse or line, is a pretty common tactic.

- "nothing LESSER" definitely (to rhyme ...

2011-04-09T13:39:26.986-04:00

- "nothing LESSER" definitely (to rhyme w/ depressor)
- gotta be "leggo my eggo"...no?
- could be "I got the ball and I see the lane IN"
- "taking emcees down by lethal rap injection" definitely
- pretty particular, but i think "sniffs" is singular (sniff)
- sounds like MCA says "this break is crazy...this is crazy" ???
- "Parlay romancing," not "Parlez"

I couldn't tell what they were singing in the chorus. Its so muffled. I didn't realize it was censored until I read the lyrics. LOL

2011-04-09T00:12:13.187-04:00

Hmm.. on 'lane' yes, but it sounds much more like Ad-Rock's making a play on words. He's not inflecting like 'less-uh' or 'lessa'. It's a more distinct 'lessER'. I could be wrong, really, but it wouldn't be the first time the group chose to sacrifice grammar for rhyme. Sounds good either way.

2011-04-09T00:01:09.932-04:00

Ad-Rock says "less" with an emphasis at the end - not "lesser". Yauch does the same thing with "lane".

2011-04-08T23:48:37.906-04:00

Small corrections:
"Yes, here we go again
Give you more, nothing LESSER <---
Back on the mic, it's the anti-depressor"

and

"Hear my perfection, rotary connection
Taking emcees down like lethal rap INJECTION"

2011-04-08T23:04:49.905-04:00

I hear Mike say 'conference' at the beginning of the part about tax collection but I'm probably wrong. What is going on in Yauch's part about the ornithologist & fizzy drinks? I think the man was sniffing glue when he wrote that rhyme!

Lyrics look good to me.

Thanks Hot Sauce! I guess they will make sense to me when I see the filmeo.

Big letdown. Not the Beasties best.

2011-04-08T17:08:33.342-04:00

@Emily You shouldn't feel stupid. The lyrics don't make a heck of a lot of sense to me either. The lyrics contain classic B Boys boasts and cultural references. I imagine the lyrics recount the story in Yauch's FFYR Revisited film.

2011-04-08T17:01:28.393-04:00

Thanks for posting the lyrics. :) I like the music but I don't understand what the song is about. Can you explain it? I'm sorry to be so stupid about it.

2011-04-08T16:48:26.845-04:00

I agree the vocal distortion is crazy on the single. It's easier to make out the lyrics if you listen to the Passion Pit remix.

I tried to decipher the lyrics myself but I had a hard time because the vocals are so distorted.
