Scritti Politti - Tinseltown to the Boogiedown (Pete Rock Variation) lyrics

(Keep slipping Time keep slipping) Yo, the only thing Majors don't waste is time in bed My timing is rare, take time, time to prepare No time for fear, how many times I said it this year? What time ya going to realise the time is near Call a time out Scritti Politti Majors climb down The cracks in the streets waste no time on beats Most def, mos definitely, the rap sheet The new release, time to make cream, time to take a piece And at the same time, time to build, time is rilla I swear I bring the heat, the tracks to Val Kilmer You know that time waits for no man, in time you'll see That you're wasting all your time while you watchin' TV And yo Scritti, I'm on it like walls to graffiti From night sticks to punches to NYPD From new smell of B.B. King you see me fine (what) You stay away from time man just wasting your time Ya Timetables keep turning - like tinseltown You've got the both ends burning - to the boogie down (Time-time keeps slipping) They play for time And work for spaces Timetables keep turning - and clocks are wound You've got the both ends burning - and worked around And in their prime They change their faces Yeah, from boogiedown to tinseltown, I had 'em all gettin' down My baggage claim's got exotic names, I get around How I'm living now well that's a whole lot different now From where I'm sittin' at I got a whole different vision now I play the tables hard, wild cards I was flipping down My partner's sitting pat somewhere off in prison now I'm flipping out they switch chains so suddenly The way you act today is the cause where you wanna be Your company shift when you start livin' comfortably The spotlight switch and then you get right from under me Don't front with me, I want to be perfectly clear Time is here I'm keeping yesterday in the rear A current affair most definitely Majors appear But the rock is sitting pretty with the Scritti you hear And it's a block that time sitting you could there, would you? Sit back and look cuz time ???? you Timetables keep turning - like tinseltown You've got the both ends burning - to the boogie down (Time-time keeps slipping) They play for time And work for spaces Timetables keep turning - and clocks are wound You've got the both ends burning - and worked around And in their prime They change their faces Yeah Now one time I thought I had it all Ma** of broads, flash awards, cash cards Time's a double-edged sword One day you hear applause next day when you leave You catch an L in the C like Christopher Reeves But y'all believe that this pa** through dirt in my name Give 'em time because you ain't if I ?? 'em point game At time I used to swerve now I'm learning my lane Trapped in time what a shame with no one to blame You waste of no one cuz that's slow one, because you're no fun Standing like a shogun, ??? drinking no rum Hey Yoda, you better how do it like you closer 'Cuz time keep slipping, make no difference if you don't come It's me you want record and how he's ???? advisory Get our game and do our thing and spend these moments wisely It's time to make chase get pace, no time to waste First you on then you gone, so long, you've been replaced Timetables keep turning - like county high You've got the both ends burning - to the do or die (Time-time keeps slipping) They set their hearts And fix their courses The timetables keep turning - and dreams of dreams You've got the both ends burning up - of how it seems They steel themselves They are resources Timetables keep turning - like tinseltown You've got the both ends burning up - to the boogie down (Time-time keeps slipping) They play for time And work for spaces Timetables keep turning - and clocks are wound You've got the both ends burning - and worked around And in their prime They change their faces Timetables keep turning You've got the both ends burning up And all the lies you been learning You keep the future ?? Timetables keep turning You've got the both ends burning up And all your lies you been learning You keep the future ??
