Your Old Droog - 3000 Avenue X lyrics

[Verse 1: Your Old Droog] I'm from a place to where the pigeon is indigenous To came off a heavy year, graffiti everywhere If you didn't know that's where the concept of crews originated Just getting out of junior high, you thought you made it Acting like you were grown, playing it cool Thinking should I troop it out or stick with my zone school Cause that's depending on the train ride Where should I go? My brain can't decide Like do we go to Dewey, with my friends be linking at Lincoln Maybe William E. Grady, tensions high in the 80's Knew this cute chick that went to New Utrecht She messed with me for free, you trick What's the matter son, should have went to Madison They sent you home in cabs when I two piece your dome with these jabs This the era of hand sk**s, not one shotgun pellet You know what, I'mma let my man sell it [Verse 2: Masta Ace] Yeah, my mom's saying, "No way you going to Jefferson That's a school where kids be sneaking their weapons in" Around here, Jeff is where they gon' put ya Or Maxwell but they ain't even got football 10 more points and I would have gotten into Brooklyn Tech Oh well, what other schools are we looking at? It's Midwood and South Shore and Edison They all full, so no way they gon' let us in Fort Hamilton High School is dumb far That's like two trains and a bus or one car Stuyvesant they sent the nice poster to us But there where some schools a whole lot closer to us Erasmus Hall, boys and girls, some other places Moms thinks I should go to school with some other races Italians, Jews, Russians and Armenians Dominicans, West Indians, you'll make plenty friends Just be ready for a real bad racial tone Them white boys don't hesitate to chase you home Then we settled on Sheepshead Bay My man work out there and he said: "hey" Long as ya dudes don't come out try to act a fool Everything gon' be real cool after school But act up and they gon' chase y'all cats All the way back to the hood with baseball bats Damn, that's a long bus ride to a foreign land But I'm ready to hit the scene like Marlon Bran' All I need is some new clothes from Aqueduck And the rest of these cool Joe's can pack it up Sheepshead Bay, strange name, yes it is And I vow to be one of the freshest kids So fresh I'mma be having you vexed When I arrive at 3000 Avenue X [Outro] Ok, ok, settle settle down This line is only for students who don't have a school yet If you need lunch pa**es you're over here Hot lunch only, over here Here please Bus pa**es over there, on that side to the left Miss, miss, you're going in the right direction No no not you, you are going in the right one You're going in the wrong one, you're on that line Where is, where are your parents? Oh God I can't wait until this day is over
