Joints & Jams

The Black Eyed Peas · Behind the Front [1998]

Yeah...a chick-a-doom, chick-a-doom chick-a-doom



That's the joint, that's the jam.

Turn that shit up, play it again. (x3)



I like the way the rythym makes me jump and move,

It gots the feeling that makes me wanna do my do.

Got me feelin' joy, turn my grey sky blue,

And when you hear a cut baby doll I know you

Will feel it, huh? Get up on the floor start movin' some

Body parts that got brothers actin' dumb

And they be actin' dumb from the cut that playin'

People break they neck from this demonstration

We about mass appeal, no segregation

Got Black to Asian and Caucasion sayin'...



CHORUS (2x)



Let your body collide to the rhythm provided

By the mind state affairs classified and make your

Heat up and flare I swear

A serenade, a soul and so beware

And what's happenin' here, seek one to help you

Feelin' a piece of mind, let your spine unwind

Maybe in time you can stop this crime

But until then, yo I'm-a rock a rhyme sayin'...



CHORUS (x2)

It's the jam, it's the jam, it's the jam, it's the jam

It's got groove it's got feelin'

(a chick-a-doom, a chick-a-doom chick-a-doom doom)

It's the jam, it's the jam, it's the jam, it's the jam

It's got groove it's got meanin'

(a chick-a-doom, a chick-a-doom chick-a-doom doom)

Got the state's appeal with the joint's that real

I don't need no steel to make my point

Get down and dirty cuz that's my joint

Ha! We preferably make all points

Through a nation we build off the musical field

Or a visual thrill, we do what we feel

Any time or place, on stage in ya face

Over tea in Earth and outer space



Because we rock that shit, we flip that shit

Some east coast west coast cosmic shit

Some north bound shit, some some south bound shit

Some overseas London out of town shit

Rockin' the joint, rockin' the jams

Turn that shit up, play it again cuz...

CHORUS (3x)

BRIDGE (1x) to fade out
