Breaking Bells (Take Me To The Mardi Gras)

Throw down
Hey, up, up and away

[Hook]
We came here tonight to throw down
To spread the word all around town
So young ladies don't front on me now
You know that you want to get down
The music that you hear is a treat
So get your butt up out of your seat
The rap will have you stomping your feet
To the sounds of the funky breaking bells beat

Rock the bells, rock the bells
Crash is in the house

[Reggie Reg]
So when you're boogieing down and the place is packed
Said the girls are fly, the music's not wack
You feel the bass and the mid range too
The group that's rockin' is called the Crash Crew
We make you want to move and make your head swirl
While the force of the 5 help you grab a girl
So get a high that's better than Cheeba
Then try to catch the Reggie Reg fever

[Barry B-Stro]
I'm capable of the wonderful
I can move the world with a push or a pull
I can do anything that's asked of me
Climb a mountain, play hockey or water ski
I turn coal into diamonds and process gold
My talents never slow they only grow
And when I go to a show I sit in the first row
I'm Barry B-Stro (He's not an average Joe)

[EK Mike C]
In my mind I built a rhyme that's as tall as a tower
Take out any other lyrics with the strength of this power
So if you want to want to battle
You'll have to bring your saddle
I will run you over like a herd of cattle
Show your face no more I will run you through the door
Run a rhyme down by law, make your head swell even sore [?]
EK Mike C's advice and you better sit nice
Ain't an emcee in the world would ever wanna pay the price

[G-Man]
Well I'm the mellow G-Man, the rapper cowhand
Quick draw emcee from the Rio Grande
Born on the plains and raised on the prairie
That where I learned to rap and fire rap real steady
My horse I straddle, ride as I saddle
When I come through the town emcees skedaddle
Okie Doke, cowpoke, if you think it's a joke
I'll cut you down in my gun smoke

[La ShuBee]
What's up, party people, and how have you been
Well I'm MC ShuBee and I'm back again
I'm the boogie woogie king just doing my thing
And when I rock a fly rhyme, you'll see what I mean
I make you hum along (Hum along!)
Sing a song (Sing a song!)
Make you brag to your friends that I am on
I'm like Gordon's Gin, I'm a hundred proof
And when I meet a fine girl I'll never cut her loose
I'm like Tropicana, now you know the truth
And I'm the only emcee with all of the juice

[Hook]
We came here tonight to throw down
To spread the word all around town
So young ladies don't front on me now
We know that you want to get down
The music that you hear is a treat
So get your butt up out of your seat
The rap will have you stomping your feet
To the sounds of the funky breaking bells beat

Rock the bells, rock the bells!
It's like poetry on the wheels of steel
The way Darryl C. cuts, the way I deal
You got to keep the beat rockin' right on time
While the force of the 5 rocks the def rhymes

[Reggie Reg]
The news is posted, the word has spread
That MC Reggie Reg is coming out ahead
So ladies, I advise that you close your eyes
Because what you see just might hypnotize
And words will be said that make you lose your head
When you finally wake up you'll be in your bed
Say you had a dream or a nightmare scene
Of a light skinned brother on the mix machine
Who kept rocking the house without a mistake
And the emcees he had were like icing on cake
So let your body lose control
It's number one, the show, the popularity poll
(We came here tonight to throw down)

[Barry B-Stro]
I'm Barry B-Stro, what's up fly girls
Would you like to take a trip around the world
So don't be afraid, all expenses paid, so
Bring champagne I don't like Kool-Aid
(He's got a private jet) and everything is set
So buckle your seat belt cause your match is met
And when we land I'll spend ten grand
So don't be embarrassed cause I'm your man
Your lips are moist you're my draft choice
To top it off you have a golden voice
So girls of the world if you're slow you blow it
See you got to move fast with me, B-Stro
(Spread the word all around town)

[EK Mike C]
Let the deejays cut and let the emcees rap
If they really sound good then let your fingers snap
'Cause if rap is on your mind and you really want to do it
You can bet your bottom dollar there ain't really nothing to it
EK Mike C steps to success
Put your fingers to a pen and you'll be the best
You got to pick an idea with a positive view
Put some meaning to your work and comprehend what you do
And now you know I'm right, I'm not singing a song and
I can never boy ever be wrong, that's right!
(So young ladies don't front on me now)

[G-Man]
Ladies my message to you is this
Get up on this and then you do the twist
I'm ranked number one lover in the book of lists
Like a peppermint stick you can't resist, so
Bon Appétit my love is sweet
So damn sweet you'll wanna eat
Like chocolate candy your favorite treat
Come on young ladies, let's tumble in the sheets
Just lay on your back and let's get it on
The mellow G-Man won't do you wrong
'Cause my love is long and my back is strong
You're wanted through the night until the next morn'
(We know that you want to get down)

[La ShuBee]
Well I'm MC ShuBee and I'm on the case and
I'm the coolest emcee that's in the place
I'm like Al Capone on the microphone
All the ladies in the world they won't leave me alone
I'm like Bonnie And Clyde, the brother takes no jive
Darryl C. will cut the beat to make you come alive
Like Little Bo Peep who lost her sheep
There's not another deejay that can compete
Like Jesse James I've got a lot of fame
All the people in the country just screaming my name
I'm like an apple to a cherry, a cherry to a peach, and
You never met another emcee so sweet

[Hook]
Shout it out, and let the dogs out
Come on, bark! Bark! Bark! Bark!
We came here tonight to throw down
To spread the word all around town
So young ladies don't front on me now
We know that you want to get down
The music that you hear is a treat
So get your butt up out of your seat
The rap will have you stomping your feet
To the sounds of the funky breaking bells beat
