Attack of the name game
Attack of the name game

Keepin' time with my feet

I saw a spaceship scene and a man in green
And a crowd was gathered 'round
Well, I stepped up close
Just to get a little dose
Of his rhymin' kind of game
Then he winked all three of eyes at me
And he said, "Did you catch my name"
It's Clack it back
I gotta Clack attack
I gotta Clee Cly Cloe the Clack a jack
Turn the Tyde
You gotta move the Myde
You gotta wham-bam funkify the Fyde

I said, "Hey, Clyde, you're sure outside
Your rap is truly meaner

I gotta Tee Ty Toe the Tack a jack

This dude sure came on hip
(Hey, mama)
His threads were fine and electric lime
Was the color of his ship
(Check it out)
And the rhymin' sounds that cat threw down
Were surely from above
And I said, "Why'd you come here Clyde"
And he said, "To spread some love"
