songs title:time to get ill
im not the type of person who likes to waste my time
and when im on the mic -i just say my rhymes
because im out on bail -the check is in the mail
they can sentence me to life -but i wont go to jail
im cool calm collected -from class i was ejected
just me, mike d., and m.c.a. -were rarely disrespected
i got all the time that i need to kill
whats the time? -its time to get ill
you been fully captivated by that funky ass bass
your girlfriend screams when m.c.a.s in the place
he stumbles in the room with the chivas in his hand
cold chillin on the spot at the microphone stand
id have the pedal to the metal if i had a car
but im chiller with the miller -cold coolin at the bar
i can drink a quart of monkey and still stand still
whats the time? -its time to get ill
went outside my house -i went down to the deli
i spent my last dime to refill my fat belly
i got rhymes galime -i got rhymes galilla
and i got more rhymes than phillis diller
m.c.a. takes a stand -man youre in command
homeboy, turn it out and dont give a damn
my name is m.c.a. -ive got a license to kill
whats the time? -its time to get ill
riding down the block with my box in my hand
today i feel like chillin just as chill as i can
coolin on the corner with a forty of o.e.
cause me and m.c.a. were down with mike d.
when i run a jam -i dont give a damn
when im throwing bass -i say, thank you maam.
fuel injected, rhyme connected -running things
im the king adrock and im the king of all kings
im looking for a spot -things are gettin hot
im m.c.a., im here to stay -and you sir, are not
oh no, it could not be -its such a sight to see
its such a trip -youre on my tip so listen to mike d.
my work is my play -cause im playing when i work
my names mike d., as you can see and i can dot the jerk
m.c.a., adrock, mike d. -its chill
whats the time? -its time to get ill
