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 ^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 ^TRICKY

I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly

Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early

These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me

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

It’s tricky, 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 ^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 cos we just can’t hide

Tinted windows don’t mean nothin’, they know who’s inside



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 ^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 ^TRICKY



When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time

I’m not singin’, phone keep ringin’ cos I make up a rhyme

I’m not braggin’, people naggin’ cos they think I’m a star

Always tearin’ what I’m wearin’, I think they’re goin’ too far

A girl named Carol follows Daryll every gig we play

Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she’s jockin’ Jay

I ain’t lyin’, girls be cryin’ cos I’m on TV

They even bother my poor father cos he’s down with me



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 ^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 ^TRICKY



We are not thugs ^(WE DON’T USE DRUGS) but you assume ^(ON YOUR OWN)

They offer coke ^(AND LOT’S OF DOPE) but we just leave it alone

It’s like that y’all ^Y’ALL, but we don’t quit

You keep on ^ROCK shock! Cos this is it…
