Quiet Dog
Mos Def

Speaking:

One thing I want to assure them

If they think I'm going to change,

And compromise my attitude, my way of life...

In my expression... Or in my... Goal.

What's politics? They are making me stronger...

And I'm much more stronger now


To the bang to the boogie

Say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie to be...

To the rhythm of the boogie to be


Their it go like simple and plain with prominent basic

Zulu arrangement, rockin amazement

Flocko, radio from heaven to pavement

Phony is the face but nothing to play with

Spent time hating it, but that ain't changin it

God gave it to me, nobody is takin it

Therefore, move it on the bass for stimulus

Standing in the twilight, I'm watching them get it in

The walls are tremblin, the air is simmerin

She's moving like more than the ears is listenin, whoa now!

Testin your equilibrium

Soundwave boomin all over your eminence

Skin on skin and skin on skin again

Put it all get it all, get on, get it in

Ladies and gentlemen, mistas and misses's

Cousins and other anto-and-synonyms

There it is

Boogie Man...


Ha (stay cool) uh simmer down, simmer down, simmer down now (stay cool) simmer down now, simmer down, Quiet Dog, bite hard, my God! (Bang!)


So and uh rock it, don't stop

Brooklyn in the kitchen, heat up your stove top

Bang the empire, steerin the navigatin away

Preservation made the greatest hip-hop!

The cool-dude swagger look terribly corny

They flow so petty, unsteady, it's boring

These dudes ain't throwin, they yawnin

They need to get off it

So wack rap is all you can call it

Therefore move it on to Def for stimulus

Regardless what's on it, what town you represent

A bullet for your audio settlement

A tower for tenement

I'm molded from all of the elements

A simmer down and manage the mayhem

I'm bright as the A. M

Engine rock n roll out the station

And blessed with the fresh since day one

I got it today done

We all going back to the same one

This constant motivation I stay with

Remarkable flavored

They all better market the greatness, whoa now!

The Kid is from Bucktown

Your girl is in love now

Your chumps gonna front they get shut down!

Shhhuhhh!


(Oh my gosh) Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down now (the music just turns me on) simmer down now, simmer down now, simmer down, Quiet Dog, bite hard, let's rock!


And you don't stop

I say we rock to the rhythm you don't stop

I say you maintain the rock and your don't stop the rock

You keep up the rock and your don't stop the rock

Maintain the rock and your don't stop the rock

You keep up the rock and your don't stop the rock

Maintain the rock and your don't stop the rock

You keep up the rock


Quiet Dog, bite hard, my God!


Ha... Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down now (stay cool) simmer down now, simmer down now, simmer down, Quiet Dog, bite hard, my God!


(Stay cool) simmer down, simmer down, simmer down now, Quiet Dog, bite hard, my God!


Quiet Dog bite hard!
