Intro
This speech is my recital, I think it`s very vital
To rock (a rhyme), that`s right (on time)
It`s Tricky is the title, here we go...
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...it`s Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...Tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tricky) Trrrrrrrrrrricky
Verse 1
I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly
Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early
These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me
Or spend some time and rock a rhyme, I said It`s not that easy
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...(How is it D?) It`s Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Trrrrrricky)
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...Tricky (Tricky) Tricky
Verse 2
In New York the people talk and try to make us rhyme
They really (hawk) but we just (walk) because we have no time
And in the city it`s a pity cos we just can`t hide
Tinted windows don`t mean nothin`, they know who`s inside
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...(How is it D?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky) huh!
Verse 3
When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time
I`m not singin`, phone keep ringin` cos I make up a rhyme
I`m not braggin`, people naggin` cos they think I`m a star
Always tearin` what I`m wearin`, I think they`re goin` too far
A girl named Carol follows Daryll every gig we play
Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she`s jockin` Jay
I ain`t lyin`, girls be cryin` cos I`m on TV
They even bother my poor father cos he`s down with me
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...(How is it?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
It`s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that`s right on time
It`s Tricky...Tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tr-Tr-Tr-Tricky) Tr-tr-tr...
Verse 4
We are not thugs (we don`t use drugs) but you assume (on your own)
They offer coke (and lots of dope) but we just leave it alone
It`s like that y`all (y`all), but we don`t quit
You keep on (rock!) shock! Cos this is it...
