The Mic Sounds Nice

[Intro: Sample]

Five! Four! Three! Two!

[Verse 1: MF DOOM]

Forgive them Lord, for they know not what they spit

Unlucky contestants on the mic, sounds nice; what they get?

Or we have a beat for a one time wonder hit

And a how-to-play-it-off-if-you-make-a-live-blunder kit

And the winner for the ninth time in a row:

DOOM, I owe it to a well-refined rhyme flow

Now if you don't mind, dough

Find me where the limes grow

With a fine dime, fill in the blanks

Still no necklace and a mil' in the bank

Grill stay blank, not to be critical but ill they stank

Maybe give 'em thanks from the steele grade shank

Hold that, put the mic down, ya luck's up

Don't let it touch the ground and shut the…

Door, buckle up, it's the law, fool

Stay calm like you got pulled over with the raw

[Chorus: Salt N' Pepa]

Mic sound nice, check one

Mic sound nice, check two

Mic sound nice, check three

Are you ready?

[Verse 2: MF DOOM]

If he had thick hair like Ric Flair, checkin'?

He wouldn't know if hoes really cared for the…

Lyrical skills - that's how they judge it

Trick the deals and tell her take it out the budget mother…

Fudge it like the numbers on a number one Billboard hit

And still be bored as…

It could be worse; this verse a no-rehearse

Known to snatch the mic like, “No, me first”

They get sloppy seconds after we stop wreckin'

And they had a choppy check-in

Then he ripped the beat like a surgery botched

A hurter, he murder flows, DOOM off the crotch

I'll be back in two and two, watch the clock

They thought we had Koch, how ya block got blotch

Another notch on the Glock

His own stock in the strip club

Free scotch on the rocks, beeyotch!

[Chorus: Salt N' Pepa]

Mic sound nice, check one

Mic sound nice, check two

Mic sound nice

Take it from the top
