[Black Thought]
2
From The Never Never Tunnels via satellite
3
Ceremonies be commencing in the candlelight
4
Yo is I is up in the res-in-iduals tonight
5
Absolutely because I'm the kid that's on the mic
6
And I believe it's destiny that I got put
7
in a position to throw lyrics like a shotput
8
Yo no matter the circumstance
9
Thought can always make you dance
10
like you got the heebie-jeebies or a hotfoot
11
The bass is low on the meter, less than zero
12
So while I'm sinning you be spinning like a planet
13
Yo if you dig the shit I'm sayin you'll be deeper
14
Wish for little and your wishes shall be granted
15
We plant the seeds y'all, to grow The Roots y'all
16
And mad knowledge I got, from the archives
17
But now I got a crazy fat question:
18
what ever happened to Leonard Parts One to Five?
19
Chorus: Black Thought (repeat 2X)
20
Why'd you ask me that question? (I don't know)
21
Where did Leonard Parts One to Five go?
22
Why'd you ask me that question? (I don't know)
23
Word/Uhh/Yeah/...
24
Where did Leonard Parts One to Five go..
25
[Black Thought]
26
Chariot, Chariot, come swing low--be
27
Cause it's on a lower level that I swing low, umm
28
?uestion, keeps me up, on the swing flow, he
29
don't got a whole name, I call him, BRO The
30
Roots is comin through on your audio
31
For you to cut The Roots down I don't think so
32
Because the sound from the ground is like be--low
33
And when the liquid kicks in then The Roots grow
34
Now my ace boom coon plus amigo
35
Was Shadrach Meshach and N'bendago
36
There was a Alpha to Omega, motion, system
37
but I just call them A to O
38
And in all states, The Roots'll rock a fat show
39
Because I drop art like I was Pa-blo
40
And Pa-blo's last name was Picasso
41
But as for cash flow, I don't got no
42
dividends and, ends to spend on blow, yo
43
Where did Leonard Parts to Five go?
44
Chorus
45
[Black Thought]
46
Where's the third verse? Here it comes, here it goes
47
The second had Oodles and Oodles of..
48
speaking of O's, I'm hard to sink like a Cheerio
49
And I speak up loud, so you can hear me yo
50
Is it A Tribe Called Quest? Is it the J.Beez?
51
We're Cool Like Dat, but yo we're not the D.P.'s
52
It's the group The Roots, with the organic rap style
53
Plus the groove from the rhythmic rhyme file
54
Umm.. I'm a big fan of the Soul
55
But I'm trying to get this Roots shit in control
56
So I hate when people say,
57
"Umm - you remind me of De La Soul,"
58
cause I got a soul, of my own, and umm
59
Yo The Roots are taking big steps and
60
you can listen as we progress in
61
Sometimes I might come to teach a lesson
62
Other times it's with a crazy question like..
63
Yo.. whatever happened to Leonard Parts One to Five?
64
Word up; I don't know, anyway, Roots up y'know
65
Uhh, as we do it like this
66
Roots up, Roots up
67
Roots up, Roots up
68
Roots up, Roots up
69
Roots up, Roots up
70
Roots up.. up, Roots up-up
71
Roots up, Roots up-up
72
Roots up, Roots up-up
73
Roots up, Roots _Up From the Ground_
74
Roots up, Roots up with the sound
75
Roots up, Roots _Up From the Ground_
76
Roots up, Roots gettin on down
77
Roots up, dig it
78
Roots up y'all, Roots up y'all
79
Roots is up Roots is up Roots is up y'all
80
Roots is up y'all, Roots is up y'all
81
Roots is up Roots is up Roots is up y'all
82
Roots is up.
