Songtexte I Hear Voices, Pt. 1 (Original 12") - MF DOOM

Out in the street
You won't survive with wack-tack beats
These days and times
Watch how we get ours with rhymes

To my Metal Face bros with stomachs of cast iron
Who been in it to win it and blast to the last siren
On the slo-mo, the con artist with the so-so chick
Chased them all, like how he did to Slobodan Milosevic
Anyhow, how 'bout them Yankees?
Once I leave off-stage, the party people thanks me
If I may speak freely
Nasty like the freaky-geeky at your local sleazy speak easy

For any fan of the limelight
In the mic stand was left a lit stick of dynamite
It's risky business, like hand-to-hand crack sale
Or rappers who's better off on the cover of Black Tail
Jumpin' Jehoshaphat, who's that?
Who cats who do magic be like, "Tell me how you do's that?"
Heck no, especially those who cop pleas like Gecko
Let go the mic, do Techno

Ha-ha, betcha bust out laughing at the vet
For no reason, he get cussed out like Tourette's
Yet tight flow to make her badass stutter
Or even crack a smile from a mad fast cutter
But uh, wordplay since third grade age
Back when we used to play "Bang! Open Bird Cage"
Hip-Hop Benny Hill, sip Henny straight, get every penny, wait
Then he chill

At any rate, my Metal Face ho's with tongue or least eye ring
Do yourself, I will continue to do my thing
Like "Kung Fu Fighting," everybody was biting
Then the Super-Villain struck again like lightning
In the same spot, now what's the chance of that?
And a name-drop like, "Pick the name out the hat"
That's a no-jiver from the liver conniver
Who vote player out the rap game like 'Survivor', while I

Drop degrees like a nerd cat, willy intense speech
From way back, and spin on your back and then freeze
While I play high-ball, low-ball to zero
So-called rhymers, go call Cleo

While I steal the show like, "Thought so, try hikin'"
Super-duper stars need Ortho Tri-Cyclen
Sometimes the men, mostly from the women
I hear voices saying, "That's the Super-Villain"
Uh, I hear voices

Mostly from the women, I hear voices
Super-Villain (ah)
