  1. Yes, yes, yes

  2. Ill out the gate, I set it off

  3. I suppose you're exposed, so get lost

  4. You break off, cut all connections

  5. Join the sucker MC witness protection

  6. M-M-Mike D

  7. Step off the launch in the place to be

  8. Always on time so I never botch

  9. The tick to the tock of the Mike D watch

  10. Now here's a little something for ya

  11. I'mma drive a little and stall, ya

  12. Don't lose your balance and fall, ya

  13. And if you're feelin' chilly, I'ma get you a shawl

  14. Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

  15. Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

  16. What you get (You get, you get)

  17. 'Cause I ain't done yet (Done yet, done yet)

  18. Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

  19. Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

  20. What you get (You get, you get)

  21. Here's a little something for ya

  22. Honest Mike, what? Honest Mike D

  23. Don't really care if the press likes me

  24. Just speak my conscience, speak my mind

  25. Don't trip and flip and then I stop to find

  26. Queens up front, Brooklyn's in the back

  27. Flack from flak guns, riot squads smoking crack

  28. The odds are stacked for those who lack

  29. Been a lucky motherfucker when it comes to that

  30. I slow roast, I'm steady tappin'

  31. Oh yes, I guess I'm the toast of Manhattan

  32. In Miami, I'm sleazy with John Salley

  33. Shout to André Leon Talley

  34. Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

  35. Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

  36. What you get (You get, you get)

  37. 'Cause I ain't done yet (Done yet, done yet)

  38. Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

  39. Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

  40. What you get (You get, you get)

  41. Here's a little something for ya

  42. This shit is crazy

  43. This shit is crazy

  44. Dr. Carlton Brassiere, a.k.a. Joyce

  45. Dr. Bombay is the ladies' choice

  46. Step on stage to the smoke from dry ice

  47. Every time I bring it twice as nice

  48. Now ease up brethren, take an Excedrin

  49. Only name check to rhyme is Tippi Hedren

  50. I'm undefined, I'm getting much finer

  51. Steady lounging in my La-Z-Boy recliner

  52. Losing it in traffic, amped up on coffee

  53. Like kids going wild after school for Mr. Softee

  54. Like a slice around the corner

  55. Uh, it's sneaking up on ya

  56. Breathing down your neck

  57. Uh, it's creeping up on ya

  58. Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

  59. Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

  60. What you get (You get, you get)

  61. 'Cause I ain't done yet (Done yet, done yet)

  62. Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

  63. Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

  64. What you get (You get, you get)

  65. Here's a little something for ya

Here’s a Little Something for Ya

Yes, yes, yes

Ill out the gate, I set it off

I suppose you're exposed, so get lost

You break off, cut all connections

Join the sucker MC witness protection

M-M-Mike D

Step off the launch in the place to be

Always on time so I never botch

The tick to the tock of the Mike D watch

Now here's a little something for ya

I'mma drive a little and stall, ya

Don't lose your balance and fall, ya

And if you're feelin' chilly, I'ma get you a shawl

Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

What you get (You get, you get)

'Cause I ain't done yet (Done yet, done yet)

Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

What you get (You get, you get)

Here's a little something for ya

Honest Mike, what? Honest Mike D

Don't really care if the press likes me

Just speak my conscience, speak my mind

Don't trip and flip and then I stop to find

Queens up front, Brooklyn's in the back

Flack from flak guns, riot squads smoking crack

The odds are stacked for those who lack

Been a lucky motherfucker when it comes to that

I slow roast, I'm steady tappin'

Oh yes, I guess I'm the toast of Manhattan

In Miami, I'm sleazy with John Salley

Shout to André Leon Talley

Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)

What you get (You get, you get)

'Cause I ain't done yet (Done yet, done yet)

Get ready, get set (Get set, get set)

Place your bet (Your bet, your bet)
