[Wyclef]. One two.... One two-Onetwo.... Yo!. [Chorus]. Hey yo! The Streets Are Like A Jungle. I'm countin' money in the jungle. Hey yo! The Streets Are Like A jungle. Guns go off in the jungle. [Wyclef - Verse One]. I tip my derby like Zorro. Ain't no such things as war heroes. Frontline planes fly by like the sparrow (BLAOW!). My face hits the dirt flashbacks of Vietnam. Remind me of the L.A. riots when it was on. Fire hits the street neon lights are bright. My tank cuts the corner enemies take flight (That's right!). Make no mistake you can't have this cake it took too long to bake. and you can't carry this weight so move on. These are the words of the elders. Babysitters got caught with cocaine in a baby's diapers. Explain that in the form of a rap. She got caught with vals A-CRACK-A-LACK-A-LACK!!!. Now I'm upset I get back to the projects. First one I blast was a usual suspect a fiend. In the alley named Ricky. Talked to a Det. rookie gave him the info. About the paliquo and where he gotta go. All he want in return is a Sony stereo. [Chorus 1x]. [Wyclef - Verse Two]. Hey yo my mind is my business so I'm.... Minding my own in the club 'til this girl said. "Let me see your telephone". I passed her my celly. She called her girl Mary. And said that she just broke up with her nigga out in D.C.. She needs a new honey in the city she gets lonely. I finally figured out her man's locked up in a penatentary. So tell me what should I do when she gets off the phone?. The devil said "Clef take her ass home!". God says "Repect her her man's in the pen". This kid pushed me from behind "Yo why you fuckin' with my woman?!!!". Then his girl looked at me she winked! I blinked!. Now he's coming up to me with the gorilla instinct. Aww cool-n-shit! I'm sittin' here eatin' shrimp. Besides I would hate for you to be a missing link. He said "Son do you know who I am?! I'm no man but one man. who? The son of Sam!". I said you've got this wrong I never sung your girl a love song. He drew for his weapon there's no more conversation. Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock! He released!. then breathe His aim went off balance. The music got tense. That's when I knew I was in trouble! The street is like a jungle!. I jumped behind the bar but caught two in the ankle! POW!
