If U Cant Dance (Slide) vs UTFO - Roxanne, Roxanne

[Hero1]

you know that very old school bit Will does.. thats based off the 2nd verse on UTFO's roxanne, roxanne - check it out here UTFO - Roxanne, Roxanne

She thought my name was Barry, I told her it was Gary

She said she didn't like it so she chose to call me Barry

She said she'd love to marry, my baby she would carry

And if she had a baby, she'd name the baby Harry

Her mother's name is Baby, which is really quite contrary

Her face is really hairy, and you can say it's scary

So isn't not every, her father's a fairy

His job is secondary, in some military

He throws them to an ?electric camp? that wasn't voluntary

His daughter's name is Sherry, his sons are Tom and Jerry

Jerry had the flu but it was only temporary

Back in January, or was it February?

But everytime I say this rhyme it makes me kinda weary

It's only customary to give this commentary

Some say it's bad, some say it's legendary

You can search all you want, try your local library

You'll never find a rhyme like this in any dictionary

But do you know, after all that

All I received was a pat on the back

That's what you get, it happened to me

Ain't that right Mixmaster I-C-E

Wills Verse

She thought my name was Billy, I told her it was Willie

She said she watch my TV show & I was very silly

Told her I was from Philly she looked at me said, ‘Really?’

& judging from her t-shirt, I could tell that she was chilly

So I gave her my sweater, she said her name was Etta

She said she come from Cuba and she just had bought a Jetta

She said she was glad I met her, let’s go somewhere together

She said she’d ride in my car cause she knew that it was better

The conversation cookin’, attention getting’ tookin’

My Spidey senses tinglin’, I felt somebody lookin’

Now who this brotha lookin’, & now he runnin’, bookin’

I’m mad I’m like a fisherman, I almost had my hook in

I figured I should get up & quickly clear my head up,

Cause Etta got a man & I’m feelin’ kinda set-up

Now Dude was really fed up & yo, he wouldn’t let up

Homey if I hit you, you might never ever get up

Now he was not a dancer, plus he wasn’t handsome

Comin’ like Mel Gibson, like I had his girl for ransom

Yo, Pedro wanna go out side, yo amigo, tranquillo… slide

[JumpinJack AJ]
