I've been all around the world

I've been all around the world
 I've been a new sensation
 But it doesn't really matter
 In this ge-generation
 The sophomore slump is an uphill battle
 And someone said that ain't my scene
 'Cause they need a new song 
 Like a new religion
 Music for the television
 I can't do the long division 
 Someone do the math
 For the record label puts me on the shelf up in the freezer
 Gotta find another way to live the life of leisure
 So I drop my top, 
 Mix and I mingle
 Is everybody ready for the single and it goes...

 Ha La La La La
 L-listen closer to the verse I lay
 Ha La La La La
 It's all about the wordplay
 Ha La La La love
 The wonderful thing it does 
 Because, because
 I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
 Yeah The Mr. to Z
 They say I'm all about the wordplay

 When it's time to get ill I got your remedy
 For those who don't remember me
 Well let me introduce you to my style
 I try to keep a jumble And the lyrics never mumble
 When the music's makin' people tongue-tied
 You want a new song 
 Like a new religion
 Music for the television
 I can't do the long division 
 Someone do the math
 For the people write me off like I'm a one-hit wonder
 Gotta find another way to keep from goin' under
 Pull out the stops, 
 Got your attention
 I guess it's time again for me to mention 
 The wordplay

 Ha La La La La
 L-listen closer to the verse I lay
 Ha La La La La
 It's all about the wordplay
 Ha La La La love
 The wonderful thing it does 
 Because, because
 I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
 Yeah The Mr. to Z
 They say I'm all about the wordplay

 Well I built a bridge across the stream of consciousness
 That always seems to be a flowin' 
 But I don't know which way my brain is goin'
 Oh the rhymin' and the timin'
 Keeps the melodies inside me 
 And they're climbin' 
 'Till I'm running out of air
 Are you prepared to take a dive into the deep end of my head
 Are you listening to a single word I've said?

 Ha La La La La
 Listen closer to the words I say
 Ha La La La La
 I'm Stickin' with the wordplay
 Ha La La La Love
 The wonderful thing it does 
 Because, because
 I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
 Yeah The Mr. to Z
 They say I'm all about the wordplay

 Ha La La La Love
 I'm all about the wordplay
 Ha La La La Love
 I'm stickin' with the wordplay
 Ha La La La Love
 I love the wonderful thing it does 
 Because, because of
 The ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's fall back in love
 For the Mr. to Z they say
 is all about the wordplay
