Maceo's Groove

Check, time to set it off, sweat it off
Get on the floor, everybody move your body
We wanna see you bounce around the club
Take you back to when it was funk as pure as a dove
From day one, architect with the funk blueprint
The notes he bent, the style unique like his fingerprint
The time he spent, hard at work, large at work
Creatin' the style that will make your neck jerk
So, prepare yourself for this
Demonstration of syncopation and dedication
His reputation, the reason for duration of his funky style
That's been around for a while, hip-hop's ever-poster-child
Uh, Mase's groove will make you move, show and prove
He's a product from funk old school
And if you're hungry for a blessing, you drool
He's known for all-night lessons, better pull up a barstool
Uh, E-L-O-S, I must confess
That I can attest to the fifteen rhyme funk fest
Of Maseo, find the spot in the show
When he's takin' a rest and you'll be hard-pressed
Just as sure as the sun in the sky rises and sets
Like taxes, troubles and debt, definitely bet
In fact, his funk is guaranteed to cut your bleed
Money breeds greed, the turn around by Rasheed
Guaranteed to make you

Move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body, move your body
Uh, move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body, move your body like this

Move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body, move your body
Uh, move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body, move your body

One on the flow, one on the blow
Uh, E-L-O-S and Maseo
He's a bad, bad man, I can't understand
How some misinterpret the funk, but some can
So, shame on you, if you can't get with
The funk you hear, 'cause junk you hear, will clog your ear
Shame on you, if you can't get with the funk
The speakers thump from the trunk
Like in the Goodfellas, and oh well-a
I guess I better scat like Ella, scoobie-doobie-doodie your ear
I can hear your heartbeat with fear
Lettin' you know the funk is near like Paul Revere
The funk is comin', the funk is comin'
Attackin' everybody from California to Raleigh
N.C., you see, the E-L-O-S and Maseo
One on the flow, one on the blow
So, run and hide, you better run and hide (Why?)
Run and hide, you better go inside (What?)
Run and hide, and abide by the law of the land
Like Uncle Sam, we want you
To funk with you, to bump with you
To roll with you, to hold with you
Console with you, 'cause when I'm bad, I'm so so bad
And I'm glad to know that the flow will make you

Move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body, move your body
Uh, move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body, move your body like this

Move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body, move your body
Uh, move your body, move your body
E-everybody move your body

We consume the room with the bass boom
Funker the head of the class, so they call me summa
Cum laude, valedictorian
DeLorean, a Porsche of course, we funk with no remorse
