[Intro: Redman]
Negroes!
[Chorus]
The head banger, what?!
The head banger
Parrish Smith gettin' wreck
The head banger
[Verse 1: Parrish Smith]
Ka-rank the boombox as my sound knock from blocks
As I chill, and bust grills you take snapshots
Of the maniac, dressed in black, alright I'm strapped
Kid you play me too close (slow down and catch a cap, pow!)
'Cause I don't play games, an outlaw like Jesse James
To hell with the bitches and the so-called fame (uh-huh)
Strictly biz to hard (kid yeah) as I climb charts
Bustin' heads daily as I compose like Mozart
Just stand, say you're mad damn, why him?
ZL1 Targa, 56 Benz
I'm sinking mad deep no shorts and no sleep
I'm bugged like a tapped phone, hard like concrete
So get a grip and don't slip or catch a clip
From the infrared aimed at your head as I blast my target
The Bozack, I rip up flows that
Make an emcee stop and chill and say he's all that!
Hardcore no R&B singer
Roll with the Hit Squad... down with the head banger
[Chorus]
The head banger (What!?)
The head banger
Parrish Smith gettin' wreck
The head banger
[Verse 2: Erick Sermon]
Surprise! You wonder where I've been, I've been workin'
But sounds makin' danger and black birds chirpin'
A real Damien, Omen possessed by the Devil
You dig the rhythm and I'll play the Runnin' Rebel!
Changed my style, so I can freak the funk
Yo pass the Philly, Hit Squad spark the blunt
I got the power, to ransack a stadium
Wubba Wubba, even Julie Brown at the Palladium
Yo, I'm from the Boondocks so I knows the flavor (yeah, yeah)
Sometimes I curse but now, I show behavior
EPMD, yo! Is in this to win this
A brand new LP so Mind Your Business!
No jokin', I'm gettin' paid fully
You wanna buy the cassette? Stop by Sam Goody
(Yo, where's my hoodie?) I wanna be hard and cause some ruckus
Talk with the b-boy slang and blast some suckers
Walk like an Egyptian, but packin' my steel
Plus I'm goin' to court, make my own appeal
As taught as a kid or told, never talk to a stranger!
'Cause I could be a head banger
[Chorus]
The head banger (What!?)
The head banger
Parrish Smith gettin' wreck
The head banger
[Verse 3: K-Solo]
I'm the original rap criminal (Yeah!)
My shots, spell spray (hoo-ahhhh) duck means my trigger finger DIGITAL
My gun’ll make men admit, they should dip when I get mad
And pissed cause I can make him my TARGET
Braggin' em taggin' em draggin' em mad hollow-point rhymes in my mic
Choose Smith or assault over Magnum (Huh)
So back up off me, here's a clip
For uzis and guns, and then you faggots gonna off me!
I'm sure you know the deal that my nine can box
I knock punks out quick like Evander Holyfield
More rhymes than music's, my solution
Subscribers of my style here's a contribution
Let's say you want a shovel layer parking emcees like cars
And drivin' emcees away
Tanks gon be full, to rappers wanna tempt me
I break this gear shift and leave 'em empty
'Cause they can't go, so I'ma call a ho tow truck
To come tow truck your weak side show
Back on the scene is the incredible one man team
When I get mad I turn green
The Fugitive's gone, peace, I'm out of here, later
And here's a finger, to all you non-movin' spectators
[Chorus]
The head banger (What?!)
The head banger
Parrish Smith gettin' wreck
The head banger
(Redman's in the house)
[Verse 4: Redman]
Surprise, niggas! The original P-Funk funks you up
I take a hit from a spliff then I get biz with the new cut!
Because I can Jam like Teddy if you let me
A goodfella but still rugged like Joe Pesci
My style is mad funka-to-the-delic with the irrelevant
Shit that I kick backflip semi-full bitch (Yeah)
Deduct and I dip then I switch
To an incredible nigga with a *nickel* nine on the hip
I always got played by a honeyDIP
But now I'm on the money tip so now I call the honeydip honey bitch
And swing hardcore because that's where I come from (yeah)
I Rock you like Chubb, and burn scrubs like a dum-dum
Remember Redman, last album I was Hardcore
Now I'm back to tear the frame out your ass crack!
'Cause I get wreck with the TEC, with the blunt or Moet
And what you see is what you get and what you're gettin' is your ass kicked, nigga
Hit you with the funkdafied figure
Like A plus funk, funk times stuffed in your back trunk punk!
Yes, the Redman that's what they call me
Wicked with the style you think I have cerebral palsy
Like AAIEEAHAAA, 'cause I freak the styles crazy
Lullaby your stupid ass, rockabye baby
The Funkadelic Devil hit your ass with a level from the new school
And still holdin' my jewels!
[Chorus]
The head banger (What?!)
The head banger
Parrish Smith gettin' wreck
The head banger
The head banger (What?!)
The head banger
Parrish Smith gettin' wreck
The head banger
The head banger (What?!)
The head banger
Parrish Smith gettin' wreck
The head banger
