WE GOT, A WHOLE LOT OF ROCK GROUPS, BACKSTAGE TONIGHT BUT DEE WANTS Y'ALL TO KNOW, ONE THING...
I'm the king of ROCK, there is none HIGHER Sucker MC's should call me SIRE To burn my kingdom, you must use FIRE I won't stop rockin' 'til I retire
Now we rock the party and come correct Our cuts are on time and rhymes connect Got the right to vote and will elect And other rappers can't stand us, BUT GIVE US RESPECT!!
Yo Dee...do me a favor...Tell 'em Dee...

They called us ill (we're gettin iller) There's no (one chiller) It's not (Michael) JACKSON, and this is not "Thriller" As one def rapper, I know I can hang I'm Run from Run-D.M.C., like Kool from Kool and the Gang
Roll to the rock, rock to the roll D.M.C. stands for DEVASTATING Mic Con-TROL You can't touch me with a ten foot pole And I even made the devil sell me his SOUL
You know what? I think like a war or somethin...(WHY?)
Cause we crash through walls, cut through floors Bust through CEILINGS and knock down doors And when we're on the tape, we're fresh out the box You can hear our sound, for blocks and blocks For every living person, we're a ?purple treat? It's me and D.M.C., Jay where's the BEAT?!
They act like, they don't know over here, Dee Can I tell y'all sumthin? (Yeah, what are we, Run?)
Now we're the baddest of the bad, the coolest of the cool I'm D.M.C., I rock and roll, I'm DJ Run, I rock and rule It's not a Trick or Treat, and it's not a April Fool It's all brand new, never ever old SCHOOL!
Y'know they act like, they don't wanna party, y'know wassup man? (Wassup man?) Y'know somethin? (What they got?)
You got the music in your body and you can't comprehend When your MIND won't wiggle and your knees will bend Music ain't nothin but a people's jam It's DJ Run-D.M.C. rockin without a BAND!
