“Listen to the way I slaaaaay, your crew
Damage (UHH) damage (UHH) damage (UHH) damage
Destruction, terror, and mayhem
Pass me a sissy so suckas I’ll slay him
Farmers (What!!!) Farmers (What!!!) I’m ready (we’re ready!!!)
I think I’m gonna bomb a town (get down!!).”
LL Cool J, lyrics from Mama Said Knock You Out
