Lyrics

The International Zone Coaster

[Busta Rhymes] Oh my gosh, oh my gosh It's a sunny day and the sky is bright Chickens in the mist everything is right No need to make bets cause I'm not a bookie Today is the day the whole school plays hookie Why? Cause I called Dinco D and Brown Cut Monitor Milo brings the sound Before I do that I play myself like a jerk Make sure mama jama took her body to work Okay she is gone so I jet to the phone Let the whole world know nobody's home It's Busta Rhymes and I'm feeling irie Come on over cause I'm having a party Milo did the right thing and brought the vibe The sound's too pissed now the party's live Chicken's in effect, everything is sweet As I zoned in my rest all I had to say is That beat, that beat, just keep the same old beat Check it out y'all, come on, come on Just keep the same old beat [Dinco D] On the fourth day of school, hookie wasn't here Today's the first day of a brand new year There's girls that's rubbing butts around the room Fellas feeling good cause the gates is boom Zoom to the doom of a sugarplum tune Me, Brown and Busta gonna rock the mic soon With a huh! here we go in June Powercat with the snap to bend the rules No-one misses out, this is all street news You choose, don't lose abuse Prices move in like crews of brews Stacked on a four pack sack of freaks I guess I'll play hookie for a couple of weeks [Charlie Brown] 6 A.M. and I hear my alarm Rush to the phone and call Vietnam He sleeps so I leave a message At the tone, you know time is of essence Quickly I jump straight into the shower The baby powder, cause I can't smell sour Get dressed, put on my Nike Airs Comb my hairs, go upstairs Walk outside to the fruit stand Andre, Kenny, the 40's in hand Powercat Geronimo is in the distance The fifths are coming, the fifths are coming Hit up, lit up the blunt and I'm straight Quarter to eight and my day looks great Walk to the school with about 40 feet That means the squad is 20 deep I zoned Zone Coaster (The International...) (Repeat 6x) [Busta Rhymes] Finally by now the whole crew's in the house Brown just came and he's roaming about Music just start but yo where is Milo? Got a chicken in the room and he's trying to hide, yo Next is my man (Who?) Gary Gennew Half of the rum and a case of brews Rumpletilz with the Diggum Smacks And then through the door came the Cracker Jacks Posse from Medina cold looking very hard Next through the door came the yardman squad Into the crib to find the entry at last Kallie and the crew with my boy Shabazz Chickens think they're iller time to settle the score Dom Powercat threw the lock on the door Bugging at the jam like I'm cyclone and Snapped out of a seven hour nap come to find out that I'm zoning Huh, check it out, yeah [Dinco D] No school? Cool I'll just fool around off school grounds Too many kids doing bids in detention I'm just chilling, what is this they mention? L.O.N.S. to the set, look he has a gun '91 is fun, lots of baked buns Prepare to wind to a reggae cut Knock knock, who, what Mom, a bomb, sound the alarm Leave the dance before she causes some harm I go out the back door with a hard bone Look at the clock and then I start to zone [Charlie Brown] Got to the hive, no one was there Truant officers began to stare Called Dinco D but he's not home Drop another quarter into the phone Call Busta Rhymes, what's up my man? (Having a party, understand?) Where's Dinco D, you know, the D? (Here's the phone) (What's up C.B.?) I'm coming (Hurry up, hurry up!) Milo started throwing on all the cuts Walking to the crib and I heard "Hello" Turned, it was Epitome and Shamello Told them the scoop and I kept stepping Almost had to stop then I started sweating Rob pulls up, he says "Come on get in" Place it was packed with stupid skins Got to Busta's crib and grabbed a 40 Cracker Jacks have it naughty naughty Grabbed the gold tone microphone Woke up Saturday, I zoned Zone Coaster (The International...) (Repeat 16x)
