## Lyrics

* Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin
* I came to win, battle me, that's a sin
* I won't ever slack up, punk, ya better back up
* Try and play the role and yo, the whole crew'll act up
* Get up, stand up, (c'mon) c'mon, throw your hands up
* If ya got the feelin', jump up towards the ceilin'
* Muggs let the funk flow, someone's talkin' junk
* Yo, I bust him in the eye, and then I'll take the punk's ho
* Feelin', funkin', amps in the trunk, and
* I got more rhymes than there's cops at a Dunkin'
* Donuts shop, sho' nuff, I got props
* From the kids on the Hill plus my mom and my pops
* I came to get down, I came to get down
* So get out your seat and jump around
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump up, jump up, and get down
* Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
* (Steady on the left) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Everybody jump)
* (Steady on the right) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
* I'll serve your ass like John McEnroe
* If your girl steps up, I'm smackin' the ho
* Word to your moms, I came to drop bombs
* I got more rhymes than the Bible's got Psalms
* And just like the Prodigal Son, I've returned
* Anyone steppin' to me, you'll get burned
* 'Cause I got lyrics, but you ain't got none
* If ya come to battle, bring a shotgun (shotgun)
* But if you do, you're a fool, 'cause I duel to the death
* Tryin' to step to me, you'll take your last breath
* I got the skill, come get your fill
* 'Cause when I shoot the gift, I shoot to kill
* I came to get down, I came to get down
* So get out your seat and jump around
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump up, jump up, and get down
* Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
* (Steady on the right) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Everybody jump)
* (Steady on the right) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Steady on the right)
* I'm the cream of the crop, I rise to the top
* I never eat a pig 'cause a pig is a cop
* Or better yet a Terminator, like Arnold Schwarzenegger
* Tryin' to play me out like as if my name was Sega
* But I ain't goin' out like no pro, bitch
* Get used to one style and yo, and I might switch
* It up, up and around, then buck, buck ya down
* Put out ya head and then ya wake up in the Dawn of the Dead
* I'm comin' to get ya, I'm comin' to get ya
* Spittin' out lyrics, homie, I'll wet ya
* I came to get down, I came to get down
* So get out your seat and jump around
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump around (jump around)
* Jump up, jump up, and get down
* Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
* (Steady on the right) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Everybody jump)
* (Steady on the right) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Steady on the right)
* Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
* (Steady on the right) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Everybody jump)
* (Steady on the right) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Steady on the right)
* Yo, this is dedicated
* (Steady on the right) To Joe "The Biter"
* (Steady on the right) Nicolo
* (Steady on the right) Grab the bozack
* (Steady on the right) Punk
* (Steady on- steady on the right)
