Love Is in the House Lyrics

[Intro]
[Beatboxing]
A little something like
A little something like, a little something like this
A little something like, a little something like
A little something like, a little something like this
(Like this, like this, like this, like this)

[Verse 1]
I clear my throat before I grab the mic, I need uno momento [Clears throat]
Them cynics gonna ride me like a pinto
No resentment, do you comprehend my innuendo
You still can't leave the party 'til you drop your crucial info

But am I jaded in assumin' that you're simply bound to do me? (Simply bound to do me)
Like them other lyricists who's message ain't so gloomy (Message ain't so gloomy)
Pan my positivity 'cause love has let you down
But if they taste the love you tasted
They'd be making sweeter sounds, T

[Pre-Chorus]
Government checks they flex with no dollars
Two turntables and a plate full of collards
Royalty checks reflects with few dollars
But my DJ makes the people wanna holler

[Chorus]
Love is in the house, and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Mama always said it's a matter of fact
That when love is in the house, the house is packed

Love is in the house, and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Daddy always said that I wish I was black
And when love is in the house, the house is packed

[Verse 2]
Packed like a baby nine months in the womb
And it was packed like the closet full of Nike's in my room
Singin' "Oh sweet Lord take me to the next level
Where the love's much thicker than the stares of my devils"

So whether or not (This is a dream or reality)
Let me appeal (To the graces of His majesty)
Amazin' it will be when this tree bears life
My roots run to the river and the Giver of Life

[Pre-Chorus]
Corporate jets they flex with big dollars
Two palm pilots and a room full of bawlers
Royalty checks reflects with few dollars
But amazin' grace makes the people wanna holler

[Chorus]
Love is in the house, and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Mama always said it's a matter of fact
That when love is in the house, the house is packed

Love is in the house, and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Daddy always said that I wish I was black
And when love is in the house, the house is packed

[Bridge]
Woke up this morning, I didn't know what to do
There was people all around me tellin' me to sing the blues
Said they ain't seen no happy since 1992
Then they turned to me, thinking I'd agree, and I offered this humble view
And I said

Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na
Love is in the house and the house is packed, sing
Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na
Love is in the house and the house is packed

[Chorus]
Love is in the house, and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Mama always said it's a matter of fact
That when love is in the house, the house is packed

Love is in the house, and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Daddy always said that I wish I was black
And when love is in the house, the house is
C'mon

[Outro]
Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na
Love is in the house and the house is packed
Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na
Love is in the house and the house is packed, sing

Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na
Love is in the house and the house is packed
Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na
Love is in the house and the house is packed

Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na
Love is in the house and the house is packed
Na, na-na na na, na-na na-na na na na (Luther Jackson!)
Love is in the house and the house is packed (Luther Jackson, where's your elementary?!)

[Various Voices:]
[Laughing] So... so they gonna do nothin'?
(Y'all silly)
Tell 'em, "Luther Jackson! Pine Ridge! Give it up! Mooki from Chesapeake and east! Southeast!"
