[Intro] Believe it or not, that is the sound of an invasion. Yes, that is the sound created by the musical invasion of America by the world's hottest recording group: A Tribe Called Quest They are non-conformists to such a great degree that no two members ever dress alike. And many educators consider their popularity resulted from their becoming symbols of teenage rebellion They certainly are raking in a lot of good green American money and gathering hundreds of thousands of teenage fans in the process [Q-Tip] Can I kick it? Yes you can! "Uhm, you can!" Yes you can! Can I kick it? Yes you can! Can I kick it? Yes you can! Can I kick it? Yes you can! "Uhm, you can!" Yes you can! Can I kick it? Yes you can! Well I'm gone...

To all the people who can Quest like a Tribe does Before this did you really know what life was Comprehend to the track for its wide cos Gettin' mentions on the tip of the vibe buzz Rock 'n' roll to the beat of the funk fuzz Wipe your feet really good on the rhythm rug If you feel the urge to freak do the jitterbug Come and spread your arms if you really need a hug Afro-centric living is a big shrug A life filled with *horn* that's what I love A lower plateau is what we're above If you diss us we won't even think of Will nipper the doggy give a big shove This rhythm really fits like a snug glove Like a box of positives its a plus love As the Tribe flies high like a dove...
