DFoot on the pedal, never ever false metal

Engine running hotter than a boiling kettle

My Djob ain’t a job, it’s a damn good time

City to city, I’m rAunning my rFhymes

DOn location, touring around the nation

Beastie Boys always on vacation

DItchy trigger finger but a stable turntable

I do what I do best because I’m Awilling and Fable

DAin’t no faking, your money I’m taking

Going coast to coast, to watch all the girlies shaking

While Dyou’re at the job working nine to five

The Beastie Boys are at the Garden, cold kickin’ it live

Another pDlane, another train, another bottle in the brain

Another girl, another fight, another drive all night

Our Dmanager’s crazy, he always smokes dust

He’s got his own room at the back of the bus

DTour around the world, you rock around the clock

Plane to hotel, gAirls on the jFock

We’re Dtrashing hotels like it’s going out of style

Getting paid along the way ‘cause it’s worth your while

DFour on the floor, Ad Rock’s out the door

MCA’s in the back ‘cause he’s skeezin’ with a whore

We got a sDafe in the trunk with money in a stack

With dice in the front and Brooklyn’s in the back

DAin’t seen the light since we started this band, MCA, get on the mic my man

DBorn and bred in Brooklyn, the U.S.A.

They call me Adam Yauch, but I’m MCA

Like a lemon to a lime, a lime to a lemon

I sip the def ale with all the fly women

DLimos, arenas, TV shows, autograph pictures and classy ho’s

DStep off homes, get out of my way, taxing little girlies form here to L.A.

Waking uDp before I get to sleep, ‘cause I’ll be rocking this party eight days a week
