Strictly Business

   I shot- I shot- I shot- I shot- I shot- the sheriff
   Don't drink while I sing, keyed up in shelter
   Don't drink while I sing
    
   Chaos, no mass confusion, EpMD's in town
   Total chaos, no mass confusion
   Bronx'll hit the dot, EpMD's in town. Don't - EpMD's in town
   Don't drink while I sing, keyed up in shelter
   Don't sleep on it either, You see something might rupture
   It don't take time for me to blow your mind
   It take a second to wreck it because you're dumb and blind
   So just lounge. 'Cause you're a MC clown
   Or join the circus. EpMD's in town
    
   Total chaos, no mass confusion
   Rhymes so hypnotizing known to cause an illusion
   Like a magician who draws a rabbit out a hat, son
   I'm drawin' more, like a 44-Magnum
   MC's please stop, look, and listen and try to imagine
   It's travellin' the speed of light
   But everything' motion it's frightening
   Plus the thought of you alone
   You now enter the dimension called the Twilight Zone
   You're terrified, plus you can't bear the thought
   You and I one-on-one in the land of the lost
   You start to shiver, then you scream, my friend
   You wake up, Muttley, because you're dreamin' again
   Next time I'm on the scene, do not try to diss us
   Keep your mouth suckered up, because I'm Strictly Business
    
   I shot the sheriff...'ful because you might get shot...
   I shot the sheriff...'ful because you might get shot...
   I shot the sheriff...'ful because you might get shot...
   I shot the sheriff...'ful because you might get shot...
    
   'ful because you might get shot...
   'ful because you might get shot...
   'ful because you might get shot...
   'ful because you might get shot...
    
   I shot the sheriff...'ful because you might get shot...
   I shot the sheriff...'ful because you might get shot...
