Hip Hop Lyrical Robot Lyrics


Can you dig it, alright I can dig it
'Cause I'm your hip hop lyrical robot and a real cool cat
Yeah, I'm your hip hop lyrical robot and a real cool cat
I want the girls to hear me rap
'Cause this MC has got the nack
I'm your body-popping shell shocking
Girls hocking eye popping lick me all over like a lollipop
I'm your juicy fruit alright, alright, alright
I said, hey white man, Indian or black
I'm your number 1 MC and that's a fact
I'm a good looking, girl hooking outstanding
Mile chatting lyrical shock attack
All MCs freeze there on the spot
One false move and you must get drop
I'm always devastating, fascinating
Video making, pins taking, watch it man I'm hot
'Cause I'm a hip hop lyrical robot and a real cool cat
I'm a hip hop lyrical robot and a real cool cat

It's a struggle in life when your skin is black
The system is designed to hold you back
How do ya do, shake hands on the shoulder a pat
One look to my face then a stab in the back
Seven points in snooker when you put down the black
But I still thank God for the little I got
'Cause I'm a hip hop lyrical robot, I don't stop
A hip hop lyrical robot, a hip hop
Hip hop lyrical robot, I don't stop rapping to the musical beat
And I'm in the mood to turn you on
In the groove thats so complete
Wind you hips, shake your body
Or clap you hands even stamp your feet
Just like a bed thats just been spread
You know I'm neat, neat, neat
Just like a tap that's running hot man can't you feel the heat
Not just now but every minute every hour everyday and every week
I don't give a hoot for loot and shoot
Or prostitutes in skin tight suits
Standing on the corner
They call their beat
I'm not a pimp drug pusher, gambler or even thief
To the preachers I will preach
And to the teachers I will teach
'Cause I'm a hip hop lyrical robot that is so unique
Well, police and thieves are playing
The game of hide and seek
When an informer gives information
Then its called a leak
In jail your a number ruled by governor
Screws keep you under, wanna see you blunder
When they say, "Sit", just take a seat
And when they say, "Food", it's time to eat
If a screw says, "Nigger", I don't answer
Yes sir, no sir three bags full sir
Sometimes inmates would even call me a growler
Me a growler, I'm no growler
I'm a hip hop lyrical robot
I don't stop rapping to the musical beat
Well, I'm a hip hop lyrical robot and a real cool cat
Well, I'm a hip hop lyrical robot
I don't stop rapping to the musical beat
Well, I'm a hip hop lyrical robot and a red cool cat

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
UB40 are a British dub / reggae pop music band formed in 1978 in Birmingham, England.

The band is one of the most culturally diverse dub reggae bands with musicians of English, Scottish, Irish, Yemeni and Jamaican parentage. The band is named from the paper form issued by the UK government's Department of Health and Social Security at the time of the band's formation for claiming unemployment benefit (UB40 = Unemployment Benefit, Form 40).

UB40 were influenced by the many Blues Parties they attended as teenagers in the multiracial Balsall Heath area of Birmingham, their love of ska and reggae inspired such original tracks as King, Madam Medusa, Food for Thought, Signing Off and One in Ten.

Their early music style was unique, with a heavy influence of analogue synthesizers, psychedelic rock guitar, saxophone and dub producer techniques which were later perfected by the late Pablo Falconer.

Ali and Robin Campbell have a musical heritage, being sons of Ian Campbell, a folk musician.

The band purchased its first instruments with compensation money Ali Campbell received after a bar fight. They have had a number of hits, most commercially and to amusement of the band, "Red Red Wine", a cover version of a Neil Diamond song (in an arrangement similar to that of Tony Tribe's version). Their most successful single release is the cover of the Elvis Presley ballad Can't Help Falling in Love which was intended to be the main title to the 1992 Sharon Stone movie Sliver and was a Number One hit across Europe and in the U.S.

Many of UB40's recordings were inspired by 1960s ska and early lovers rock songs that would have otherwise been forgotten in the public eye. Their new injection of life into so many old Jamaican hits has resulted in many musicians' and producers' renewed popularity and income.

UB40's early music often tackled social issues such as racism and unemployment.

Other artists that UB40 have collaborated with include: Pato Banton, Madness, Bitty McLean, Chrissie Hynde, Robert Palmer, Hunterz, Japanese artist Mikidozan, French artist Nuttea, Lady Saw and Afrika Bambaataa.
