Show these good people what it means to be D Well, they call me Mike D with the madman style I put the mic up to my lips and I can scream for a while Created a sound at which many were shocked at I've got a million ideas that I ain't even rocked yet I got the light bulb flashing on the top of my head Never wake up on the wrong side of the bed You're an idea man, not a yes man With a point to make, you're bound to take a stand 'Cause I'm Pete the Puma, Minnie the Moocher I got every type of flavor or style that will suit you The bass is real fat because it's gotta be like that See a snare on the funky tin, give me a taste of the hi-hat [Chorus: Mike D with MCA] Finger-lickin', finger-lickin' good, y'all Finger-lickin', finger-lickin' good, y'all It's finger-lickin', it's finger-lickin' good, y'all Finger-lickin', lickin', lickin' good, y'all [Verse 3: Mike D, MCA, & Both] Yo, Yauch, what's up? Mike D, what's up? Come on, Yauch, let's tear it up Well, I could catch a groove like a flash in the dark I grab a hold of your attention like a thief in the park 'Cause I can flip a rhyme off the tip of my tongue Yeah, I be switching up the rhythm like the rhyme's a piece of chewing gum Now I might chew, but I don't bite My ideas are mine when I begin to write In my sleep, I'll be thinking 'bout beats and Getting on the mic and busting some treats and Sportin' the crazy funky threads that you've never even seen before What I'm lacking from macking I can find at the thrift store I don't scuff nor scuffle, just grin as I walk by Take the time to rhyme for a girl I hear talk fly Down some papaya, down with the revolution Always wear my goggles 'cause there's so much pollution I can do the Freak, the Patty Duke, and the Spank Gotta free the funky fish from the funky fish tanks I'll sell my house, sell my car, and I'll sell all my stuff I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough [Outro: Mike D] Whipped— whipped— whipped cream Whipped— whipped— whipped cream We gon' be out of here in a minute So this one goes out to my man, Mario C My brother Ad-Rock cuttin' it up on the turntable Yeah, finger-lickin' good, y'all DJ Hurricane's finger-lickin' good, y'all
