[Verse 1]
Yo, I'm the one who made you get on the dance floor and shake 'til your pants tore
So party people, clap your hands for
The one they call Big L, I'm hot as hell
I'm livin' swell, my name's ringin' bells, can't ya tell?
So grab the Moët and take a sip, I stay lookin' dip
Mics I rip but don't flip, we on a party tip
I get so loose on tracks that I produce
MCs be frontin' mad hard, but got no juice
I'm not the type that strikes out when I pull mics out
Violate L and it's lights out
And if you got no skills on the mic, you oughta dash
'Cause rappers that's sorta trash, the Big L slaughter fast
I'm gettin' high rates in all states
Makin' papes with the crew called (Diggin' In The Crates!)
I'm a rap crowd amazer, microphone dazer
Big L is the man with the unexpected flavor
[Chorus]
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
Big L is the man with the unexpected flavor!
[Verse 2]
Now, when I'm on the stage, microphones I lock tight
The Big L rock right when I'm in the spotlight
Yo, I'm a young dapper rapper that dress well
Foes I expel, the ladies wanna sex L
Because my raps are real raw
I'm hard as a steel door, with skills most MCs would kill for
I'm known for grabbin' the mic and then droppin' a raw rhyme
Big L is the greatest of all times
So give me my props, I want all mines
Battles I refuse to lose
I choose to cruise smooth like the Blues
I never hear boos 'cause I amuse
In '93, I'm blowin' up like dynamite
And don't think I can't fight because I'm kinda light
L's a teenage poet that men fear
Chief, to be sincere, you got no wins here
I play MCs like a game of Sega
'Cause I'm poetic, and this is the unexpected flavor
[Chorus]
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
Big L is the man with the unexpected flavor!
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
Big L is the man with the unexpected flavor!
[Verse 3]
Now, I'ma kick flav' 'til the microphone's broke
And I'm known to do the wild thing like Tone-Loc
I screw whores, I do tours, I'm smooth like Lou Rawls
I write raps that hurt MCs like blue balls
In all zip codes, the Big L rip shows
You couldn't touch this if you was on your tip-toes
I live in the ghetto, and rap is my route out
Now I'm on wax, givin' my crew a shout-out
Since I'm paid, I could knock any hoe boots
But L wasn't so cute when I had no loot
Now I'm lookin' slick, and my pockets are thick
I need surgery to get chicks removed from my dick
A-yo, my cards I'm playin' well
Picture that — a rapper slayin' L? No way in Hell!
My rap skills are sharp like a razor
But don't sweat it, this is the unexpected flavor
[Chorus]
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
Big L is the man with the unexpected flavor!
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
(Once again, it's the man with the flavor!)
Big L is the man with the unexpected flavor!
[Outro]

Peace, I'm out!
