Gettin' Down At The Amphitheater Lyrics


Ga, ga, gangbusters!
Hey, give it boogie like the BX sex regular booger bitches
Get the backseat G bumps'll make you buy tapes
Ex cape the fire tonight switch like Jekyll and Hyde
And shit wreckin' we live and shit
This swamp water style'll keep 'em dirty and wet
I bet mills on the rhyme skills we walk away set
Rich like topsoil connect coin with currency
Places that I couldn't pronounce and then bounce
Illegal ain't illegal if it's less than an ounce
Keep it come in T. La Rock amounts
See, 'It's Yours'
Study scrolls that includes the clause
Get your dirty paws out my bowl, your hustle's too old to deal
With the shuffle, you exhaust me like a muffle
Get zapped and zipped in the duffle
Came to the set splashed, no Roley on the wrist
To hell with a guest list, we all up in this!

A two dollar somethin' got your eyes on him
But yo she pinchin' my ass so we go, limb for limb
Lights studio dim, it's exact tonight
So we can drop the rap delight, on one!
Just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
Just get on down
Underground under pressure, my style is the child
Of a lesser, God, I Master like Farad
The sign of in between the El Rook'n, and El DeBarge
Metaphorically massage, verbal Hajj
I take over breaks and chop loops
Glorifyin', one-eighty hat cats can rock in my troops
Wisdom like a tooth, mock new shits I knock loose
Datin' game Thursday's I spot juice, plug like Pos'nus
Before you get a style, let's get a style
My style has the crowd back and forth
You were soft as the tracks you rappin' off, I pop shit
You tried to laugh it off, actin' like you had to cough
And didn't hear it, my spirit sustains in the same pattern
Emcee, familiar sample period, spottin' where you sampled
Your rhyme scheme from, I ain't clearin' it
I drop science and experiment, contractually
Came to terms of endearment with my label
Want to pick out a day to smack wack niggaz, I contact niggaz
Like P.O.'s, you spit background lyrics, I rip Lee flows
Wipin' your nose like you need blows
Claimin' it's a allergy, I react allergic to cats
Or is it how they word it?
If you had weight it must have been some pussy you served with
Thoughts for a minute, I rode rhythms and words tenant
Many lip profess, I'm verb sentences
Just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah, come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
Just get on down
It's like rip y'all, add it on to lip
Wonder why's upon this just to flex my strength
I was the one who killed wackness so I had to do a bid
Of twelve years on the mic, before parole with Tommy 'Kid'
Infinite landscaper, green paper maker
Leap far from home with chrome rims and trims
Man these people still takin' rappin' for a joke
The pimp, I rock it one-double-oh percent
Some of you MC's should be called CM's, Carbon Monoxide
On the mic exposin' your polluted blood type
Y'all niggaz need a visit from the Brain Fairy
Walk around dead, like your physical's buried
Wrote the rhymes durin' a earthquake 'cause your style's
Ahaky as shit! Just need to come clean and admit
That yo' quick draw fails the test and mine was flawless
My DJ gave the scratch, yours was clawless
Your crew couldn't even measure to mine
That's why yo' bitches is busted and mines is fine
Performin' with an upper design, so back on off the plank
We bringin' this big and bad like Hank
Just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
Just get on down
Just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
And just dance, you know, you gots the feelin'
Just dance, ah come on and get down
Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down
Just get on down

Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr. (born March 13, 1972 in Chicago, Illinois), better known by his stage name Common (previously Common Sense), is a Grammy award winning rapper, author and actor known for lyrics that focus on love and spirituality. Signed to Kanye West's G.O.O.D. Music, many people describe him as being a conscious hip hop artist who makes songs that send a message. He debuted in 1992 with the album Can I Borrow a Dollar? and maintained a significant underground following into the late 90s, after which he gained notable mainstream success through his work with the soulquarians.

As well as music, Common has worked as an actor, on the films 'Smokin' Aces' (as Sir Ivy) 'American Gangster' (as Turner Lucas) and 'Wanted'. He may also be seen in cameo roles in films such as 'Brown Sugar'.

His debut was the 1992 album Can I Borrow A Dollar, but he achieved little critical or commercial success until 1994's Resurrection, an instant classic. He produced several more albums, notably Like Water For Chocolate and the highly experimental Electric Circus, before releasing the Kanye West and J Dilla-produced Be in 2005, which was his first album to receive widespread mainstream appeal and radio playtime.

Common is considered a "cred" artist, which has lead him to collaborations with the likes of De La Soul, Jadakiss, T.i, Talib Kweli, The Roots, Kanye West, Lily Allen, Erykah Badu, and Fort Minor.

2007's Finding Forever was produced mainly by long-time collaborator, Kanye West.

Universal Mind Control is the 8th album from Chicago hip-hop artist Common.
