[Jay]

One two, one two, and I say

I go by the name of Jam Master Jay

And the Hollis Crew, we here to stay believe that



[D.M.C.]

Hey, as we let the music play

Pay attention and listen as I mention

a recital of mic to speeches

From the book of the 40 Ounces

of the most powerful words ever spoken



[Run]

Topsy-turvy, they try to serve me

Disturb me, curve me, boy they never heard me

Slammin, jammin, I be bammin

Makin takin breakin and rammin

Run got a beef with those that cold think that

Sun and the moon and soon you will drink that

wine for the rhyme that I'm, not a stink brat

Run havin fun my son, just where the ink's at

Up on the top I pop and drop, you feel

So low you go for Joe you know, what the deal

I might just strike tonight, and make you say

(Run ran the place with bass and bust boo-tay)

Go check the clock I rock your jock so hard

Make you feel the deal is I'm top card

Come in my face and bass and I might just

And it's not n-n-not, n-n-not JUST ANOTHER GROOVE



Not just another..



[Jay]

Ah yeah, one two one two Jam Master Jay

Hollis Crew here to stay, AUGGHH!

Afros, 40 Ounce Crew in effect, word up

Bout to break ya neck with another groove

Kick it D



[D.M.C.]

Check out the lyric, hear it, cheer it, fear it

So loud and clear that you can't come near it

Words are heard, I never speak the weak

You pissed me off, now I'm takin a leak

I kill at will, thrill, top bill

I'm makin a mill, and damn I'm still

makin history on the M-I-C

And for the young ladies, a nigga like D'll

be waxin taxin no relaxin breakin backs

and bustin raps and I'll be strapped

in my Cadillac, and you know that for a fact

I'm strapped with rap but yo, I'm also

record breakin never flakin wide awake

and titles I'm takin and I'll be makin

ladies groove cause I prove I can soothe when they

OOOOOH, this one's called - NOT JUST ANOTHER GROOVE



Not just another..

Not just another..



(Not just another one, not just another one)



[Jay]

Deliverin, I'll deliver and give ya

whatcha been waitin (one two three) for/four

This, is the gift of the gab

that I had when I came out the lab

The masterpiece was released

Let's cease the beef and all those misbeliefs

that we can't do our thing on a positive tip

I'm tryin to tell ya

It's been a long time -- we need a change

Time for things to be rearranged

Time to get our act together

Whoever's clever or better - never let

another brother or sister get dissed cause they missed the

knowledge and wisdom and damn I wish ya

get with the Stop the Violence move

Won'tcha hear me say peace, and it's not just another groove



[D.M.C.]

Yeah Jay I just wanna say whassup to the brothers and sisters out there

(Yeah.. it's not just another groove)
