Numero Uno

[Sampled/scratched: One one]

We're number

We're numero

Court is now in session

[Verse One]

Here ye here ye, all listen close

To the man, the myth, the Fresh, the Prince, the utmost

I got a brain like a cup, and rhymes I pour 'em

Spectrum to the Astrodome and Forum

All the way to Wembley, fans are in a frenzy

Doing what I gotta do to make people remember me

Fast like Flo Jo

Crazy like Cujo

Both I know and you know

That I'm numero uno

My crew is numero

[Verse Two]

Order in the court prepare to cop the plea, sucker

Judge, jury, bailiff: they're all me

You're on trial but you can't win

'Cause I wrote the script whereas you die in the end

So throw in the towel, sign off, just give it up

You tried to beat me in a game that I made up

And by the time you learned the rules and tried to change your fate

It's too little too late, sorry chump, checkmate

I'm in the mood to do my thing

You wanna battle, let's go, just get your butt in the ring

Ten seconds and it's over, I yell out who's next

I caught you off guard with the lyrical suplex

I flex my larynx so that you can't jinx

The ship that won't sink, more popular than the Sphinx

I'm a carnivore, strong just like a dinosaur

You got more? You're not scared? Then what your running for?

'Cause I'm incredible, I do the impossible

I'm known to destroy you and your crew if you follow the rules

I'm number one, I'm the Prince, I'm the lyrical gun

What you're dissing me? Yo cut that out, son

'Cause I'm a weapon, you heard what I said

And I should have a danger sign on my forehead

'Cause I'm lethal, fatal, unstable

I'm nitro, standing in front of a mic cable

Waiting to blow if there's a flicker of static

To ignite the fuse in the room, you feel your doom

You tried to break but there is no escape

From the jaws of death cos you took the bait

Wait and if I say so you may go

It's like Mother May I

May you though? Hell no!

Go ahead and play me if you think I'm a joke

Just keep a brace around for when your neck gets broken

'Cause you're gambling

Just like craps at Trump

Go ahead roll

Snake eyes, you lost, chump

That's the way its gonna be every time

You try to go rhyme for rhyme

Your rhymes against my rhymes are dope

Your rhyming is weak, your rhyming is wack

Wherever you got it from I suggest that you take it back

Hold up Hobbes, you say you made it up

Then cut your head off, because your brain sucks

You should a stayed back

You should a laid back

You Should a prayed that

I didn't come back

But I came back

Remember way back

You used to say that

I wrote wack raps

Now you screaming out somebody tame that

Lyrical cyclops

Yo Prince, please stop

Somebody call the cops, go get you some eye drops

Now here's a word for the wise, don't go into the light

That's how I get ya 'cause I'm a poetic poltergeist

Now in ya mind is a vision

That's driven by my decision

To become an imaginational figment

Which gives me the freedom to explore

And roam the realm of your mind

And disappear when you look behind

You know I'm a gladiator

And I really really hate a

Sucker stepping to me that's a p-p-p-perpetrator

Really I'm the invader, t-t-t-terminator

That's like setting up do-dat-dat-n-detonator

You know what that was

You know that I'm def cause

I just transformed it

Like Jeff does

Fast like Flo Jo

Crazy like Cujo

Both I and you know

That I'm numero uno

My crew is numero

Grand number

My crew is numero
