The Lyrics

Doncha just LUV merged parodies?
(instrumental opening)

Doncha call this thing a comeback!
I been rockin' 'em for years!
I'm gonna get you, sucker
and I'll fill ya full o' fears!
I'm makin' the tears rain
down like a monsoon!
I'm beatin' the competition
and I'm lowerin' the boom!

Mama said to knock you out!
Mama said to knock you out!
You ain't got chance this bout, no!

I'm gonna rock this land
and I'll take you, boy, by storm!
I'll bash this beat like your skull
and I'm just gettin' warm!
I'm blastin' and outlastin'!
I don't care if you'll allow!
You're takin' a ten-count, Kool Moe Dee!
How ya like me now?

Mama said to knock you out!
Mama said to knock you out!
You ain't got chance in this bout, no!
You ain't got chance in this bout!

(instrumental break)

I'm gonna mess you up
and you're gonna understand
I'm the man of the hour
and I'm not your average man!
Destruction, terror, mayhem!
I think I'm gonna bomb a town!
I'm about to explode
and now you're going down!

Mama said to knock you out!
Mama said to knock you out!
You ain't got chance in this bout, no!
You ain't got chance in this bout!

Mama said to, Mama said to...
Mama said to, Mama said to...
Mama said to, Mama said to...
Mama said to, Mama said to...
You ain't got chance in this bout!
You ain't got chance in this bout!
You ain't got chance in this bout!
You ain't got chance in this bout!

(instrumental close)
Anybody wanna try rewriting "Mama Told Me (Not to Come)" to the rhythm of "Mama Said Knock You Out"? If so, you're braver than I am.

I can't say I know either song, but the idea of the band behind "Jeremiah Was A Bullfrog" singing old-school rap amuses me greatly. Three fives.
