This was the first single from House Of Pain’s second album, Same As it Ever Was.
It was accompanied by a memorable video featuring the group attending an underground boxing match.
This is the only House Of Pain song to feature a verse from DJ Lethal.
The song contains a less than subtle diss to...
[Intro: Everlast]
Yeah, the House of Pain...
[Verse 1: Everlast]
I'm sick, demented
I came and represented
I rose from the grave
I had a close shave
The cops tried to lock me down
'Cause the Glock they found was stolen
That's how I'm rollin'
Calvin Klein's no friend of mine
So I don't like Marky
Or the monarchy
Don't start me up like a Rolling Stone
I'll leave ya sulkin' like Macaulay Culkin in 'Home Alone'
So get a grip like Steven Tyler
I used to trip with the Divine Styler
Back in the days there were Irish ways
And Irish laws, stand up for The Cause
[Chorus]
When it's time to rock a funky joint
I'm on point
When it's time to rock a funky jam
I'm the man (4x)
[Verse 2: Danny Boy]
Well it's the D to the A, double N, Y-B-O
Y? 'Cause I rock shit like Ronnie Dio
It's a black day of rest, quick, run, get your vest
I'm down with the Hill 'cause I still got the skill
To turn the party out, it's all about the skyscraper
Your girl caught the vapors so I might videotape her
I make a lot of papers so I don't have to scrape the
Bottom of the barrel, I rock fly apparel
Now I could pull your card
Starting up the Harley Davidson
I got the gun, so the drama, you could save it!
[Verse 3: DJ Lethal]
Well it's the mad bum Russian
Funky with percussion
From L.A. to Flushing
I get your girlie blushin'
I'll cut ya like the butcher
(But it ain't Joe the Biter!)
The old rock a loop cause I'm Super like Schneider
[Chorus]
When it's time to rock a funky joint
I'm on point
When it's time to rock a funky jam
I'm the man (4x)
[Verse 4: Everlast]
I'm ill, retarded
So don't get me started
I might lose my cool
You'll lose if we duel
'Cause I can stomp a hole in the soul of a punk
With the rhymes in my head and the beats in my trunk
I got skill kid and I'm gonna milk it
For all it's worth, I'm gettin' mines on Earth
So step to the next head
Or like Sadat X said
'He's gone and that's how it's supposed to be'
Don't stand so close to me 'cause
[Chorus]
When it's time to rock a funky joint
I'm on point
When it's time to rock a funky jam
I'm the man (4x)
