《Youthful Expression》歌词

[00:00:00] Youthful Expression - A Tribe Called Quest (探索一族)

[00:00:18] The taste of nuthin' this does somethin'

[00:00:20] Moms that knows that says I'm frontin'

[00:00:23] Call me Smiley 'cuz I'm wiley

[00:00:24] Livin' life like the life of Riley

[00:00:27] Smokin' blunts with a boy named Bud

[00:00:29] We cough up your lungs cough up your cud

[00:00:31] Put out fires with a 40 ounce of water

[00:00:34] You know you oughta

[00:00:36] Dance to this your girl you kiss

[00:00:38] I like fried foods especially fish

[00:00:40] Afrocentric I'm electric

[00:00:42] Socialistic and eccentric

[00:00:44] Body's healthy mind is wealthy

[00:00:47] Thoughts they flow that will prepare me

[00:00:49] To be a Native get creative

[00:00:51] Original and designative

[00:00:52] Listen to the line that's playin'

[00:00:53] Listen hard to what Q's sayin'

[00:00:55] Politicians are magicians

[00:00:57] Make your vote they hope your wishin'

[00:01:00] Ambiguous words senseless verbs

[00:01:04] They all amount to crap that's heard

[00:01:06] Violent hip hop money flip flops

[00:01:09] Promoters won't book but it still rocks

[00:01:11] I'm a Zulu yes a true blue

[00:01:13] Red Alert is with the poo-poo

[00:01:15] Ozone layer loses flava

[00:01:18] Here's the edge that you will savor

[00:01:20] With expressions and I'm guessin'

[00:01:57] 19 years is a youthful lesson

[00:01:59] Fallin' skies babe open eyes babe

[00:02:01] Can't you see what lays inside babe

[00:02:04] Makin' mentions on this tension

[00:02:06] Rhythmic lovin' my profession

[00:02:08] Hips they gyrate scripts I narrate

[00:02:10] No banana I ain't a primate

[00:02:13] Ain't no soul glo just an Afro

[00:02:15] The head is bred to let the thoughts grow

[00:02:17] Quest together to lands of never

[00:02:19] Sleet and snow and storms can't sever

[00:02:21] Tribe is growin' never know when

[00:02:24] For this time six necks may show in

[00:02:26] Dialogues have been accepted

[00:02:27] Negatives have been rejected

[00:02:30] That's the music Negro music

[00:02:32] Is here for all so you must choose it

[00:02:35] Phonies fondle watch it throttle

[00:02:37] 3-6-5 straight out the bottle

[00:02:39] Bustin' caps finger snaps

[00:02:41] I prefer the second for ghetto tracks

[00:02:43] Phife Jacobi Ali told me

[00:02:46] Get the force like Wan Kenobi

[00:02:48] Force his teachin' beats are screechin'

[00:02:50] Poly plateaus we aim for reachin'

[00:02:52] Trialization freaks the nation

[00:02:55] A mass of peers in celebration

[00:02:57] Hopes been real high since the knee high

[00:02:59] Days of youth feelin' good and real spry

[00:03:01] Avid combos hear those bongos

[00:03:03] Boom cacka boom that's how they go

[00:03:06] We ain't nomads but we real glad

[00:03:08] Hip hop slams through the nineties no fad

[00:03:10] As a rhythm have been given

[00:03:12] Hurry up become we breakin' out out

[00:03:15] With a rhythmic instinction to be able to travel

[00:03:18] Beyond existing forces of life

[00:03:19] Basically that Tribal

[00:03:21] And if you wanna get the rhythm

[00:03:23] Then you have to join a Tribe

[00:03:26] Word peace
