Текст песни Examination Of What (Digable Planets) с переводом

One day while I was sipping some groove juice I realized

That in the span of time we’re just babies

It’s all relative, time is unreal

We’re just babies, we’re just babies, man

Check out, check out

Every man’s a planet and the props are there to get it

Insects roll together with the spirit in our orbit

Life, it comes & goes and you do not punch a clock

I don’t take shit for granted, I think of Scott La Rock

Also of Tyrel and the battles at the borders

My cousins in the joint and the homeless gripping quarters

The forests are all shrinking, this deepens to my thinking

Don’t cover up the nappy, be happy whatcha kinking

Dwelling, yes, you’re dwelling as the norm is itty-bitty

Figure eighty-fitty for a smidgen of the city

In the Serengeti, get ready for a box

But beware of the shanks and the pistols and the Glocks

If your peoples don’t getcha, you still ain’t off clean

The politicians mask is worse than Halloween

I write the funky scripts so you know I got to kick em

Now tell me who’s the vics and tell me who’s the victim

What is really what is really what is really what

— if the funk don’t move your butt

— and if the box don’t make you hot

— and if the cats don’t dig the raps

— if your life ain’t got no spice

— or if the guns just wreck your fun

— or if some shouts ain’t in the house

— or if your crew ain’t down with you

Peace, this is Mecca the Ladybug and I’m saying though

What is really what if I can’t even get comfortable

Because the Supreme Court is like, all in my uterus

Peace, this is Cee-Know the Doodlebug and I wanna say

What is what if you can’t walk through your hood with Bert, Ernie and Sesame

Street posse

Trying to give the Snuffleupagus

My father taught me jazz, all the peoples and the anthems

Ate peanuts with the Dizz and vibed with Lionel Hampton

Now I’m swimming deep in the hip-hop with eclectics

Now do we gots the power or is it getting hectic

Scribble swings the paddle at the mantel where I placed it

Hip-hop grew from roots but some emcees never traced it

The old-jacks buckwild and some babies bore their fists

But the crew from outer space is here, shit

We grew up digging styles of the fabulous fifth Freddy

And scoping out for days crazy legs and rocksteady

Now bleach is in the laundry, the same old beats is handy

The label may okay it but radio won’t play it

The censors are about so watch your mouth close your drapes

The legs that’s in the boots is on the corner, with your tape

Making papes off the crust, for money and for lust

You’re playing out the planets get slammed, trust

You think it, see it, run it and slam it

They peep it, hear it, lynch it and ban it

It just ain’t the haps if they know they can’t control it

Your grass be in the joint but they licked it and rolled it

So what

I’m saying what

What is really what is really what is really what

If the funk don’t rule your cut

Or if the streets don’t dig your beats

Or if my man ain’t fifty grand

Or if the hoods don’t think you’re good

Or if your church don’t really work

Or if the pigs wanna knock your wigs

Or if the jeeps don’t roll with beats

Cause Butterfly is. baby, I’m just a baby, man

I’m a baby, I’m just a baby, man

And Mr. Doodle? (I'm just a baby too)

And Miss Mecca (I'm just a baby, man)

And Mister Silk, he’s just a baby, too

And 801s, they just babies, man

And Miss Venus, she’s just a baby, man

The ac-facts, they just a babies, man

And dps, they just a babies, too

Oh and, Dash, she’s just a baby, man

Danny and Dani, they are my babies, man

Oh and Liz, she’s just a baby, man

Oh and Stella, she’s just a baby too

Doc Shane, he’s just a baby, man

Mike Mann, he’s just my main man

And Doctor Timba, he’s just a baby, man

And nappy Jackie, she’s just a baby, too

Benefi-cent, he’s just a baby, man

Oh, and you

You’re just a baby, man

Ladybug here y’all with Silver Tongue

Nice cold drums

With eyes, open wide

And open pride, which lies inside

The Digable Planets' eyes

Peace, this is Cee-Know, the notorious Doodlebug

Giving universal salutations to my peoples

Dwelling in the seventh dimension

Brother Butter

Uh, um, it was real fun

Sector six, here I come

Chilling out, pops and Dani I’m out, later
