Us3 Visited Wembley… and XYZ
It’s just a gimmick
You’re looking for the next hot beat
You got the fever; you needed a prescription of listening
Forget the cowbell cause I’m not [bad word] [bad word] 

Alright I ran through the alphabet, better break it down a bit
Copycats kicking sloppy raps sound counterfeit
But there’s more than one way to skin a cat
That’s why I brought it back to where the beat is at
Third times the charm, so clap if you feel me black
We get the dough, like ray, I wanna hear me flat
Cause that’s the black key hidden in my harmony
The rhythm is a part of me
Embedded in my arteries
I double it up I’m ready [bad word] and steadily bust it
So lemme discuss [bad word] while the critics get disgusted
It’s a cliché but gimme the microphone and gimme some leeway
And give Us3 us free like we were Cinque
With a dope Philly flow off the top like a toupé
And something well wicked from the blokes in the UK
You put it all together with a suitable aesthetic
For a beautiful, unusual and musical poetic…
