Peter Piper - Run-D.M.C.

Now Peter Piper picked peppers but Run rocked rhymes

Humpty Dumpty fell down that's his hard time

Jack B. Nimble what nimble and he was quick

But Jam Master cut faster Jack's on Jay's dick

Now Little Bo Peep cold lost her sheep

And Rip van Winkle fell the hell asleep

And Alice chillin somewhere in Wonderland

Jack's servin Jill a bucket in his hand

And Jam Master Jay's making out our sound

The turntables might wobble but they don't fall down



Now Dr. Seuss and Mother Goose both did their thing

But Jam Master's gettin loose and D.M.C.'s the king

Cause he's adult entertainer

Child educator

Jam Master Jay king of the crossfader

He's the better of the best best believe he's the baddest

Perfect timin when I'm climbin I'm a rhymin apparatus

Lot of guts

When he cuts

Girls move their butts

His name is Jay hear the play he must be nuts

And on the mix real quick and I'd like to say

He's not Flash but he's fast and his name is Jay



Jay's like King Midas as I was told

Everything that he touched turned to gold

He's the greatest of the greater get it straight

He's great

Playing fame cause his name is known in every state

His name is Jay

To see him play

Will make you say

God damn that DJ made my day

Like the butcher the baker

The candlestick maker

He's a maker a breaker

And a title taker

Like the little old lady who lived in a shoe

If cuts were kids he would be you

Not lyin y'all he's the best I know

And if I lie my nose will grow

Like a little wooden boy named Pinocchio

And you all know how the story go



Tricks are for kids he plays much gigs

He's a big bad wolf and you're the three pigs

He's a big bad wolf in your neighborhood

Not bad meaning bad but bad meaning good



We're Run-D.M.C. got a beef to settle

D's not Hansel he's not Gretel

Jay's a winner

Not a beginner

His pockets get fat others get thinner

Jump on Jay like cows jump moons

People chase Jay like dish and spoon

And like all fairy tales end

You'll see Jay again my friend
