Biz Markie | Lyrics | Make the Music With Your Mouth, Biz

Ah one two, ah one two
Ah one two, ah one two
I'd like to introduce myself
My name is ah Biz Markie

Well, I'm the human ultra called Biz Markie
Makin' music orderly is my specialty
When I go, boom ah one, two, girls get excited
When they hear my lyrics they wanna recite 'em
I know y'all in the mood, just go with the flow

And I can play rappin' records and all disco
Like, beat it, Billie Jean by Michael Jackson
Or the treacherous three record, they call, "Action"
When you hear me do it, you will be shocked and amazed
It's the brand new thing they call the human beat box craze

Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes
Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes
Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes

Well, I don't just do the beat box, I rock on the mic
And all the rhymes that I say, all the people like
I get the crowd jumpin', get the girl's hearts pumpin'
All the party people say, "Isn't he somethin'?"
Rock from New York city all the way down south

Sayin' rhymes and makin' music with my mouth
I'ma tell you party people how I began
It started when I'm livin' in Long Island
Hey, when I was a kid, I used to play in the streets
Makin' sounds with my mouth, all sorts of beats

Grown people, used to say, "What?"
Grown people, used to say, "What's
Wrong with that kid makin' that strange noise?"
It was like for all the fly girls and all the homeboys

Then I tried it at a homeboy's basement party
They thought it was a record, they ain't know it was me
When they came by the DJ, and saw who it is
They said, "Make the music with your mouth, Biz"

Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes
Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes
Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes

It may look and sound easy doin' the human beat box
But it's real difficult, even knocked me out my socks
It's a movement combination with your lip tongue and throat
Use your teeth and your nose for a mysterious high note
I like doin' it as a hobby or a job

People treat me like a star and surround me in the mall
It's not all the props, spittin', breathin' hard and doin'
You need practice, be ambitious in the schoolin'
Let me tell you party people, you gotta admit
Anything than you want you gotta work hard for it

That's why I like doin' sounds, that's hard to achieve
Makin' two or three sounds at one time you can't believe
When I walk down the street, people crowd around me
And say, "How you make all them sounds at one time Biz Markie?"
I tell 'em it takes a lot of practice and lip control

I've been doin' it since, fifteen years old
And everywhere I do it, the people say I'm good
I even get big respect in my own neighborhood
I'm tellin' you a fact and just like it is
Even moms pops and cops say, "What up Biz?"
Everywhere I go, I always rocked the boat

Gonna end this rhyme with this one note
Not gonna act conceited and say "I'm the best"
But I'm guaranteed to pass any kind of test
I say def rhymes with funky fresh lyrics
When I do the beat the party people go into hysterics

Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes
Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes
Make the music with your mouth, Biz
Biz markie beat boxes

You heard the proceedin', now here's the sequel
All human beat boxes is not created equal
That's why I'm here to say today
That I'm doin' my beat in a special way

Makin' musical tunes, orally, I have perspective
I'm very well known and greatly respected
I like to thank people, without no doubt
Peace hi party people it's time to break out

Make the music, make the music
Make the music with your mouth
Make the music, make the music
Make the music with your mouth

Make the music, make the music
Make the music with your mouth
Make the music, make the music
Make the music with your mouth
Make the music with your mouth
