Karaoké Dial-A-Jam Coolio & 40 Thevz

Listen to the ballad of forty thieves number one

As I grab the microphone like a dagger does a gun

But I don' be jackin' fools for dey automobiles

I gained management publishing a record deal

I feel I been rappin' on the mic for so long

But still ain't nothin' goin' on but a funky song

Long as it's strong I remain forty thieves in the house billy boyz and the Gang

I put up wit dis an' I put up wit dat I got mo' tricks than Felix the cat bag

Bags of all colors couldn't upset my tempo

A dark skinned bro it so felt like my circle

I'mma geeter you're a turtle over the top

I heard to win dis rap race or should I say rat race

An' since I be the rat I'm in first place ya better catch up

I'm servin' fools with the huh hiccups

Throw ya hands in the air an' wave 'em like you just don't care

Throw ya hands in the air an' wave 'em like you just don't care

I got some funk in my pocket for

The true hip hoppers

I gets my props

When I bus' dese rhymes on top o' funky tracks

Puffin' on the crack I'll have none of that

Down wit the thieves I believe could be my runnin' pack

I'll steal your shoes while you're walkin' in 'em

I got the bomb that'll have you coughin' if you hit 'em

We couldn't get 'em up wit me if I was wearin' skates

I read buses like books and see through 'em like lace

Now I gotta put it down like a real Gee only

If you ain't wit the program then hear from the voter

I'm down around the end like my name was Lawrence Taylor

I'm down wit a rat dat used to be a sailor

To funk or not to funk dat is the question

These fools better watch where dey steppin'

'Cos my act is like a secret weapon loaded an' cocked

So gimme a call 'cos

I'm always on the clock

Call me if you need someone to rock you

Call me Coolio and the forty thieves

Ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong

Ring ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong

Around the global the mobile dial the digits push in

One way or another forty thieves breakin' in

Takin' on non believers in the industry

Who's to find sucker rappers an' put 'em out dey misery

I spit game like a new B got more drama than a movie

If you know me then you knew me little bad assed Pookie

Like to wear my pant's droopy but I

Shine like a ruby you can't do me

I'm down with the twenty times two thieves

I throw into the hype wit my fresh pair of ears

I'm down wit the hustler an' the gangsters an' the players

I'm hittin' fools hard like my name is Ronnie Lott an'

I'm down wit the circle 'cos you know it don't stop

Fools don't wanna step 'cos the suckers know I'm packin'

Crack over the fence like my name was Reggie Jackson

Switchin' around the pitcher like Catfish Hunter on the run like Doc Gooden all rolled into one son

Ooh ah ooh ooh ah forty thieves in the house gettin' large

Call me if you need someone to rock you

Call me Coolio and the forty thieves

Ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong

Ring ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong

It's time to step to da mic wit da steel in my grip

Cool an' the forty like Gladys and the Pips or the O Jays

But not the Simpson you must be trippin'

From city to city we be tennis shoe pimpin'

I'm lookin' for some action that's why I'm rappin'

I got a ship you can ride but I'm the captain so

Dippin' chicken tender in the barbecue funk

Just make sure you got a lot of room in your trunk

I'm a winner Bill's a winner B's a winner Lee's

A winner wouldn't you like to be a winner too

Ooh I got a job to do somebody's gotta lose it

Won't be me so I guess it's gotta be you

I'm jus' one in the pack of four black Macks that's

Down to gang bang if you want it like dat

So bring yo' team yo' posse yo' crew

And you still can't see the thirty eight plus two

Call me if you need someone to rock you

Call me Coolio and the forty thieves

Ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong

Ring ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong

Call me if you need someone to rock you

Call me Coolio and the forty thieves

Ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong

Ring ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong
