Ladies and Gentleman
The most exciting stage show you've ever witnessed
Appearing live
Doug E Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew!
Excuse me, Doug E Fresh
Yes!
Have you ever seen a show with fellas on the mic
With one minute rhymes that don't come out right?
They bite
They never write
That's not polite, am I lyin'?
No, you're quite right
Well, tonight on this very mic you're about to hear
We swear, the best darn rappers of the year
So!
So!
Cheerio!
Yell
Scream
Bravo, also, if you didn't know this is called The Show
A-yo, Doug

Six minutes, six minutes

'Scuse me Doug E, 'Scuse me Doug E,
'Scuse me Doug E Fresh, you're on
Uh uh, on
Well, it started up on 8th Avenue
When I made up the name called the (Get Fresh Crew)
It was me, my two DJ's Chill Will and Barry B
And my right hand man Ricky D
I used to rap and sing, makes sounds and things
And for example, here's a telephone ring
Hello?
Is Doug E Fresh in?
No, he's not in right now
But anyway, no more delay
Just check out the new style I display
Now ya gotta be (Fresh)
To rock with (Fresh)
And I'm D.O.U.G.I.E (Fresh)
And I'm known for the (Doug E style beatbox)
Not for the (Fat Boys style beatbox)
The human beatbox or the entertainer
No other title could fit me plainer
In a passing generation I am a remainer
And I'm also known as the beatbox trainer
Cashin' checks, make sound FX
And after I finish rockin' Slick Rick is on next (You know it)
Slick Rick
Well, here's a little somethin' that needs to be heard
Doug, I was goin' Downtown (Word, Rick?)
Word (Sure?)
All alone, no-one to be with
Stepped on the D-train at 205th
I saw a pretty girl (So?)
So I sat beside her
Then she went like she was Tony the Tiger
I said: "Oh no, there's been a mistake
Honey, my name's Slick Rick, not Frostie Flakes" (Oh, golly wally)
She was raisin' hell
She said: "Oh, my name is Maggie but call me Michelle"
Michelle, ma belle
Sont les mots qui vont, tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble
Bust a move, we show and prove
A-yo Doug, do that record Jam on the Groove
As you can see, most definitely
We are (Fresh)
Chill Will (Fresh)
Barry B is (Fresh)
Ricky D is (Fresh)
And I am, the Original Human Beatbox
The Entertainer, Doug E (Fresh)
