Chaka Khan, Chaka Khan, Chaka Chaka Khan
2
Chaka Khan let me rock you, let me rock you Chaka Khan
3
I said let me rock you that's all I wanna do
4
Chaka Khan let me rock you, let me rock you Chaka Khan
5
I said let me rock you 'cause I feel for you
6
Chaka Khan won't you tell me what you wanna do
7
Do you feel for me the way I feel for you
8
Chaka Khan let me tell you what I wanna do
9
I wanna love you, wanna hug you, wanna squeeze you too
10
So let me take you in my arms, let me fill you with my charms
11
Chaka, 'cause you know that I'm the one to keep you warm, Chaka
12
I'll make you more than just a physical spell
13
I wanna rock you Chaka baby 'cause my name is Melle Mel
14
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
15
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft (ha, ha!)
16
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
17
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft
18
I was sitting on the corner just a wasting my time
19
When I realised I was the king of the rhyme
20
I got on the microphone and what do you see huh!
21
The rest was my legacy
22
I was born to be the king of the be bop swing
23
To have Stallions and medallions, big diamond rings
24
To own a castle and a yacht, two million in gold
25
'Cause rap is the game that I control
26
I'm like Shakespeare, I'm a pioneer
27
Because I made rap something people wanted to hear
28
See before my reign it was the same old same
29
You took "the ba with the ba"
30
That's street-talk game
31
So if you ever, let me make this clear
32
If you ever think that we're stepping out of here
33
You ever think you're getting up, down, around or in huh huh!
34
You better think again my friend
35
Because the door is closed and we're in town
36
And the only place you can go is down
37
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
38
Well, I'm Keith Cowboy and you're my cow
39
So what ya M.C's gonna do now?
40
It's gonna be a slaughter and here's my plan
41
You won't even get bread and water my man
42
Gonna put you on the racks like a pair of slacks
43
With another wack rapper tied to your back
44
And if you wanna hang yourself out to dry
45
It's the beautiful round up in the sky
46
I'm the carry-out kid when my trigger's at cock
47
I'll be carrying out bodies stiff as a rock
48
Carrying out a million dollars in my pockets and hand
49
But I carry out orders from no man
50
'Cause anything you wanna do I already did
51
You used to see me rock the house when you was a kid
52
But in my M.C school, my class was packed
53
And tricks were for kids so I left your ass back
54
The bow-legged brother, there'll never be another
55
I'll buy a mansion for my mother
56
A 24/7, the cool-aid smile
57
Say hey Track 11, look at my power
58
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
59
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft (ha, ha!)
60
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
61
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft (ha, ha!)
62
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
63
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft
64
c'mon
65
Now you know just who I am
66
And what I do because I'm in demand
67
Because I look good, do you hear my man?
68
And if you can't take that ya chump ya own hand
69
You one-girl-at-a-time getting M.C
70
So how could you think that you rank with me?
71
If you only did your homework you would surely find
72
When Scorp get girls, they all be fine
73
And the only girl that you could take of mine
74
Is the one that I left way behind
75
And plus you're cheap, you're petty, your music is trash
76
You need to go to the bank and get some cash
77
Because talking don't pay, you're drifting away
78
When I see you on a stage I'm a blow you away
79
You're right, there is no difference between me and you
80
Except I look good and you look Through
81
Take that!
82
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
83
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft (ha, ha!)
84
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
85
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft
86
Little pieces of a dream is all you mean
87
Since the day you stepped in to the M.C scene
88
Biting your moves, taking fake awards
89
Saying everyone else was perpertrating a fraud
90
But your nothing but a clone of my flesh and bone
91
Now you trying to play grown on the microphone
92
But I'll tell ya 'bout a night, and ya know I'm right
93
When you listen to us rocking to the broad daylight
94
And then you looked in the sky and you started to cuss
95
But then you prayed to God that you could be like us
96
Then God was great and God was true
97
And he tried to show you how to be like you
98
But you still didn't get where you wanted to go
99
When you gathered in a group and got your own show
100
'Cause without the source, the force won't survive
101
For eternity the source is alive
102
You forgot the words of your creator
103
And now he's made you a perpertrator
104
Forever in a world of you and a girl
105
A few grams in a pipe to make your head swirl
106
You must spread the word of the master teacher
107
Or you die by the rhymes and the streets'll eat ya
108
The words are a gift we will never flaunt
109
That's why were gonna get everything we want
110
'Cause like a shadow in the night, I'm the sight unseen
111
And I'm the bona-fide vocal master supreme
112
And I'm here to run it down for the ladies and gents
113
'Cause my rhymes make vowels plus they make sense
114
See I'm down with Cowboy, you will rock the show
115
With King Lou, Tommy Gun and huh! Scorpio
116
Kami-Kazi, Clayton Savage and Easy Mike
117
And going down in the books is the king of the night
118
So if you're ever in a battle, I'm a make you my slave
119
And I'm a give you a shovel so you can dig a grave
120
Leave behind all your fame and wealth
121
So you can say one rhyme then bury yourself huh!
122
I may sound possessed, but you know I'm blessed
123
With the will to make sense of all this mess
124
I'm the power of the sun that shines in the sky
125
And I'm the only M.C that'll never die
126
So just rock and don't stop 'til you hit the top
127
But when you se Melle Mel you're gonna have to drop
128
RAAH!
129
And not only that!
130
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
131
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft (ha, ha!)
132
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
133
Because you got to get lost because you know you're soft
134
Now for all you M.C's, you heard my story
135
On my superfly cold crushin' fame and glory
136
How I rocked the children and the young ladies
137
I even rocked the countries that was overseas
138
'Cause I can rock anybody from any crew
139
Because I did it to Chaka, I'm a do it to you
140
I'm a show ya how I rocked it y'all all night long
141
But when I rock with Chaka Khan I just said
142
Chaka Khan let me rock you, let me rock you Chaka Khan
143
I said let me rock you that's all I wanna do
144
Chaka Khan let me rock you, let me rock you Chaka Khan
145
I said let me rock you 'cause I feel for you
146
Chaka Khan won't you tell me what you wanna do
147
Do you feel for me the way I feel for you
148
Chaka Khan let me tell you what I wanna do
149
I wanna love you, wanna hug you, wanna squeeze you too
150
So let me take you in my arms, let me fill you with my charms
151
Chaka, 'cause you know that I'm the one to keep you warm, Chaka
152
I'll make you more than just a physical spell

I wanna rock you Chaka baby 'cause my name is Melle Mel
154
Say what y'all
155
Say what!
156
To the D.J's scratch, you've met your match
157
'Cause were coming out fresh with a brand new batch
158
So taking you off into the galaxy
159
It's Vicious, Vicious, Vicious Lee!
160
Step, Step, Step, Step, Step off
