[Chorus]
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
[Verse 1]
I was lacing up my Pro-Keds sneakers
Mr. Magic blasted out the speakers
It's midnight
And the sun is down
I can do the funky strut
As good as James Brown
Bow to the house
As I win another trophy
I'm the man in the spotlight
Everybody loves me
And I am a hip-hop fiend
I'm the baddest rapper in Whitestone, Queens
[Chorus]
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Well I'm not afraid to advertise
I'm way ahead of those other guys
Those rookie MC's
Rockin' the mic
Blasting out rhymes
That people don't like
'Cause they all sound
Like everyone else
To have your own style
You gotta be yourself
There's no sense bein' a copycat
No one wants to hear
Rappers like that
[Chorus]
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
You won't make it
To the Hall of Fame
If those lyrics you write
Are considered lame
The Cut Creator
The Master of Rap
When I strut down the street
Homeboys tip the hat
They stand there amazed
They say, "There he is!
The number one rapper
In all of showbiz!"
The Funky Man
Is here to stay
He blows those other
Rappers away
[Chorus]
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it, oh yeah
I want what I want when I want it
