Vanilla Ice - You've gotto look up

To the people in the front
and all the people in the back row
Nice to see y'all jammin left to
right toe to toe

No more introductions you know
who I am
If you don't I couldn't really
give a damm!
So just slide to the glide of the
rhyme in motion
Or rock to the rhythm of this magic potion

To have an opinion, not to follow a crowd,
Brothers and sisters say it loud
Not here to depress, only to stress
Yes, we can all get out of this mess
My license revoked, people think I choked,
try to hange me with the rope, but nope,
see I'm too dope.

CHORUS
Everybody
You've gotta look up
You've gotta
Everybody
Don't ever look down
Don't let them put you down

With a bang the bass kicks once again,
I'll repeat myself try to tell you again
No, not a politician or an
obstitrician
Just a down young man who watches and
listens

Weary of the system tryin to rip us off
So they let you use drugs so your mind goes soft
confused, amused at what the papers say
Never get their facts straight anyway
'cos I've lived through the night of a 1000 knives
Watched journalistic murder with
my damn eyes
seen 'em make, take, break many peoples lives
fillin up the public with nothing but lies
Livin in a class segregated nation
Gutter press, comicbooks, mind information
Try to keep me quiet just sittin in the corner
But my name is Derek B
not Little Jack Horner.

CHORUS x 2

The plot thickens as the rhyme goes on
Can you hear
