No sleep till - Brooklyn !
Foot on the pedal
never ever false metal
Engine running hotter than a boiling kettle
My iob ain`t a job
it`s a damn good time
City to city I`m running my rhymes.
On location
touring around the nation
Beastie Boys always on vacation
Itchy trigger finger
but a stable turntable
I do what I do best
because I`m willing and able.
Ain`t no faking
your money I`m taking
Going coast to coast to watch all the girlies shaking.
While you`re at the job working nine to five
The Beastie Boys at the garden
cold
kickin` it live.
No sleep till -
Another plane
another train
another bottle in the brain
Another girl
another fight
another drive all night.
Our manager`s crazy
he always smokes dust
He`s got his own room at the back of the bus.
Tour around the world
you rock around the clock
Plane to hotel
girls on the jock.
We`re trashing hotels like it`s going out of style
Getting paid along the way
`cause it`s worth your while.
Four on the floor ad-rock`s out the door
M.C.A.`s in the back because he`s skeezin` with a whore.
We got a safe in the trunk with money in a stack
With dice in the front and Brooklyn`s in the back.
No sleep till -
No sleep till Brooklyn ! No sleep till Brooklyn !
Ain`t seen the light since we started this band
M.C.A. ! Get on the mike
my man!
Born and bred Brooklyn
U.S.A.
They call me Adam Yauch
but I`m M.C.A..
Like a lemon to a lime
a lime to a lemon
I sip the def ale with all the fly women.
Got limos
arena
TV-shows
autograph pictures and classy hos
Step off homes
get out of my way
Taxing little girlies from here to L.A..
Waking up
but I get to sleep
`Cause I`ll be rockin` this party eight days a week!
No sleep till -
No sleep till Brooklyn! No sleep till Brooklyn !
