Hear ye, hear ye, from far and near |
| [00:23.54] |
The one they call the big daddy kane is here |
| [00:25.73] |
To deliver a message to everyone everywhere |
| [00:28.16] |
So listen up party people cause this you should hear |
| [00:30.66] |
Its a story of a far-away atmosphere |
| [00:33.23] |
That you will find very rare and far beyond compare |
| [00:35.66] |
All is sincere and rather debonair |
| [00:38.16] |
So lets all gather around, because... |
| [00:39.87] |
|
| [01:00.16] |
Off to a place you thought was unreal |

Where people of the world do know how to chill |
| [01:04.84] |
Everything remains cool and calm where you are |
| [01:07.21] |
And if you ask about crime, they allll say, |
| [01:09.26] |
|
| [01:10.20] |
They wouldnt even know what you mean |
| [01:12.07] |
Cause its a different program, yall know the routine |
| [01:14.57] |
Where people work hard for a decent buck |
| [01:17.00] |
And you can wear truck jewelry without being stuck |
| [01:19.18] |
Never wondering whether your house is all right |
| [01:21.93] |
So go leave your vcr on the porch overnight |
| [01:24.24] |
And as for the people they all stand proud |
| [01:26.79] |
Senior citizens party with the hip-hop crowd |
| [01:29.17] |
You can hang at a jam till the break of dawn |
| [01:31.85] |
And leave without your bally shoes getting stepped on |
| [01:34.16] |
Everyone walks around in their right mind and all |
| [01:36.41] |
Because crack aint nothing but a hole in the wall |
| [01:39.22] |

| [01:44.52] |
|
| [02:03.99] |
What I discovered may just only seem |
| [02:05.80] |
As something that you find in your wildest dream |
| [02:08.67] |
But!on the real tip, you will see |
| [02:11.22] |
Im not playing, what Im saying is reality |
| [02:13.54] |
There is a place people live with joy |
| [02:15.53] |
That the next man cannot come along and destroy |
| [02:17.90] |
No one faces problems, no one says sorry |
| [02:20.40] |
And war aint nothing but a game on atari |
| [02:22.95] |
This message also applies to other nations |
| [02:25.48] |
Like africa for instance, where theres starvation |
| [02:27.91] |
But if you come with me, youre sure to see |
| [02:30.53] |
Ethiopians can eat in red lobster for free |
| [02:32.65] |
And people that you saw before that were poor |
| [02:35.15] |
Will never ever see the situation no more |
| [02:37.46] |
Cause in this world everyones a millionaire |
| [02:39.81] |
|
| [02:40.56] |
Are you sick? |
| [02:41.24] |
And what the hell is welfare? |
| [02:42.42] |
Fashions are smashing for all to flaunt |
| [02:44.86] |
And we can get anything that we want |

| [02:54.59] |
As we journey to the promised land, and... |
| [02:57.28] |

| [03:14.13] |
This may sound funny, but seriously folks |
| [03:16.56] |
Its a shame that people today must live |
| [03:18.80] |
In a world thats operating oh so negative |
| [03:21.30] |
But I found a place designed especially for you |
| [03:23.93] |
Where peace and harmony is everyones culture |
| [03:26.17] |
So lets all gather around before this world corrupts |
| [03:28.66] |
