  1. Because mutiny on, the bounty's what we're all about

  2. I'm gonna board your ship and turn it on out

  3. No soft sucker with a parrot on his shoulder

  4. 'Cause I'm bad, gettin' bolder, cold, gettin' colder

  5. Terrorizin' suckers on the seven seas

  6. And if you've got beef, you'll get capped in the knees

  7. We got 16 men on a dead man's chest

  8. And I shot those suckers, and I'll shoot the rest

  1. Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

  2. 'Cause I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  3. Snatchin' gold chains, nickin' pieces of eight

  4. I got your money and your honey and the fly name plate

  5. We got wenches on the benches and bitties with titties

  6. Housin' all girlies from city to city

  7. One for all and all for one

  8. Takin' out emcees with a big shotgun

  9. All for one and one for all

  10. Because the Beastie Boys have gone AWOL

  11. Friggin' in the riggin' and cuttin' your throat

  12. Big bitin' suckers gettin' thrown in the moat

  13. We got maidens and wenches, man, they're on the ace

  14. Ah, Captain Bligh is gonna die when we break his face

  15. Most illingest b-boy, well, I got that feelin'

  16. I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  17. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  18. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  19. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  20. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  21. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  22. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  23. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  24. Ali Baba and the forty thieves

  25. Torchin' and crackin' and rhymin' and stealin'

  26. Robbin' and rapin', bustin' two in the ceilin'

  27. I'm wheelin', I'm dealin', I'm drinkin', not thinkin'

  28. Never cower, never shower, and I'm always stinkin'

  29. Yo-ho-ho and a pint of Brass Monkey

  30. And when my girlie shakes her hips, she sure gets funky

  31. Skirt-chasin', free-basin', killin' every village

  32. We drink and rob and rhyme and pillage

  33. Most illingest b-boy, well, I got that feelin'

  34. I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  35. I was

  36. I've been drinkin' my rum, a def son of a gun

  37. (I fought the law) and I cold won

  38. Blackbeard's weak, Moby Dick's on the chicks

  39. 'Cause I pull out the jammy, and I squeeze off six

  40. My pistol is loaded, I shot Betty Crocker

  41. Deliver Colonel Sanders down to Davey Jones' locker

  42. Rhymin' and stealin' in a drunken state

  43. And I'll be rockin' my rhymes all the way to Hell's gate

  44. Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

  45. And I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  46. Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

  47. I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  48. Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

  49. 'Cause I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  50. Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

  51. I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  52. Most chillinest b-boy

  53. I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  54. Most killingest b-boy

  55. I am most chill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

  56. Most dustin'-out b-boy

  57. I tossin' my dust

  58. Most finkiest b-boy

  59. I'm doin' that finkin'

  60. Most rhyminest b-boy

  61. I'm stretchin' my shade

  62. Most shootinest b-boy

  63. I think you're shit

  64. Most rhyminest b-boy

  65. I'll steal your shit, homeboy

  66. Most taxinest b-boy

  67. I tax you, boy

  68. Most illingest, illingest, illingest b-boy

  69. Waxin' all y'all squares

  70. Yeah

Rhymin & Stealin

Because mutiny on, the bounty's what we're all about

I'm gonna board your ship and turn it on out

No soft sucker with a parrot on his shoulder

'Cause I'm bad, gettin' bolder, cold, gettin' colder

Terrorizin' suckers on the seven seas

And if you've got beef, you'll get capped in the knees

We got 16 men on a dead man's chest

And I shot those suckers, and I'll shoot the rest

Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

'Cause I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

Snatchin' gold chains, nickin' pieces of eight

I got your money and your honey and the fly name plate

We got wenches on the benches and bitties with titties

Housin' all girlies from city to city

One for all and all for one

Takin' out emcees with a big shotgun

All for one and one for all

Because the Beastie Boys have gone AWOL

Friggin' in the riggin' and cuttin' your throat

Big bitin' suckers gettin' thrown in the moat

We got maidens and wenches, man, they're on the ace

Ah, Captain Bligh is gonna die when we break his face

Most illingest b-boy, well, I got that feelin'

I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Ali Baba and the forty thieves

Torchin' and crackin' and rhymin' and stealin'

Robbin' and rapin', bustin' two in the ceilin'

I'm wheelin', I'm dealin', I'm drinkin', not thinkin'

Never cower, never shower, and I'm always stinkin'

Yo-ho-ho and a pint of Brass Monkey

And when my girlie shakes her hips, she sure gets funky

Skirt-chasin', free-basin', killin' every village

We drink and rob and rhyme and pillage

Most illingest b-boy, well, I got that feelin'

I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

I was

I've been drinkin' my rum, a def son of a gun

(I fought the law) and I cold won

Blackbeard's weak, Moby Dick's on the chicks

'Cause I pull out the jammy, and I squeeze off six

My pistol is loaded, I shot Betty Crocker

Deliver Colonel Sanders down to Davey Jones' locker

Rhymin' and stealin' in a drunken state

And I'll be rockin' my rhymes all the way to Hell's gate

Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

And I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'

Most illingest b-boy, I got that feelin'

I am most ill, and I'm rhymin' and stealin'
