Checkmate

[Intro: Quake the Broadcaster]

In the year of 1994

A motherfucking earthquake just hit New York

You know what I'm saying

Earthquake is here

Straight up

[Verse 1: Quake the Broadcaster]

I'm wrecking niggas like pencils on a piece of white paper

When I fuck up I can just use my eraser

Deck em, rub em' out and have much clout

Like Damon Wayans Bruce Willis on the Last Boy Scout

My pockets rollin' thick like a milkshake

I overflow the party cuz that shit says earthquake

I get on stage, start to rake em, I bake em

I use A-1 sauce and eat that nigga like steak-um

Earthquake is up when they come to skin 'em [?]

I eat em' out like stuffin' on my microwave oven

I get the nack when I pack

A 3-5-7 in my sack

Cuz I'm short of a new jack

Aw heck, here's a peck on yo' cheek

I fold em and roll em' and dunk em like Dominique

I get the inspiration

When I see the girls in jubilation

Racing to my place and

Wanna touch my face

As I start to pace and race

Brush em' off like toothpaste

So think twice if you wanna step to this, miss

I'll have ya burnin' like [?] (89 TEC-9)

Hey up ya can't leave without no say so

If we were in Cuba, I'd take all ya pesos

So giddyup, this is Earthquake on ya stereo

Fuck with me I leave ya soggy like some cereal

I'm gone, checkmate

[Hook: Quake the Broadcaster and MF DOOM]

Make a move like chess then checkmate

I make a move like check, nigga then checkmate

Move like chess, nigga, checkmate

I make a move like chess, nigga

Then I yell checkmate

[Verse 2: MF DOOM]

Back as the invisible killer up on yo' screen

So get yo neck thumpin' between my guillotine

Checking magazine for X the Unseen

Mad niggas know what I mean

I come clean as a whistle

Or filthy as my last pistol

Mine get you now- bust!

I get down to the bristle and burn em'

Like from up under the mistletoe

With the ho and she ain't even

Nasty like a flow- "check!"

Swish, I'm the suspicious, vicious X

So shit, I'm on a mish to gut this punk like a...

Yo probably wish I say like a fish

But busta how I front punk, I gut em' like a blunt

And my middle finger, index

And thumb, a bum from a bum nigga

A son of a gun

Squeeze the trigger I let looser

Looser than the bullshit ya used to

I jam like a TEC, I am the slut seducer

Master of the zero harasser of yo' zip code

Disaster to the superhero, Flipmode

In 93' I heard mad emcees that annoyed me

Like DTs on CDs, wack (Doom!)

Checkmate

[Chorus: Quake the Broadcaster and MF DOOM]

I make a move like that, then I yell checkmate

Makin' moves like chess, nigga, checkmate

I make a move like chess nigga then I yell checkmate

Makin' moves like chess, kid, checkmate

[Verse 3: Quake the Broadcaster]

I cremate, dominate, then sell some lemonade

10 cents a cup, little kid, then I terminate

Like Arnold Schwarzenegger, I am a little bigger

Ten shades darker than that with the itchy finger

My whole game is a [?]

I kill a nigga dead with some lead and put my hand on a stack of bibles

I swear to God I didn't do it

It's just another day of my life with some sin and you niggas knew it

I'm crossing criss 'cause I'm pissed, time to diss

[?] for doing a motherfucking twist

I hid the body now it's over

The cops are havin' a really bad time finding that ass like a four leaf clover

So before you check me and try to do me

Quick, I kick your ass just like Hong Kong Phooey (CHIKA)

[Outro: Quake the Broadcaster]

Checkmate

I just crossed the board and I got checkmate

I just crossed the board and I got checkmate

I just crossed the board and I got checkmate

I got the checkmate I got the checkmate
