Magic's Wand

[00:26.35] Oh my God, I think I'm having a rap attack.
[00:30.30] Somebody get a doctor!
[00:31.41] Quick, man
[00:32.14] She's having an attack!
[00:33.40] She said 'rap attack', man, not 'heart attack'
[00:37.05] Oh, you mean she's alright then?
[00:38.32] Of course, man
[00:39.58] You never heard of a Mr. Magic Rap Attack?
[00:41.11] Where is this guy from, man?
[00:42.83] Oh, I heard of a heart attack or a big mac attack
[00:45.12] But what's a rap attack?
[00:46.43] Come here, man, I see I'ma have to explain it to you like this
[00:49.41] See, a rap attack means.
[00:51.14] Deejays jammin in the street
[00:53.28] MC's rappin to the beat
[00:55.60] The people downstairs sayin they can't sleep
[00:57.68] Cause the people upstairs are stompin their feet
[00:59.78] It's not like they're startin a riot
[01:01.85] "We'll call the cops, cause we want some quiet!"
[01:04.24] There's no need for them to get excited
[01:06.19] They're just mad because they're not invited
[01:23.64] (It's all in Mr. Magic's Wand)
[01:43.21] Oh see, now I understand what a rap attack is
[01:45.59] Well, it's about time!
[01:46.95] All you had to do is explain it to me
[01:48.62] But let me ask you a question:
[01:49.92] How long have they been rockin like this?
[01:51.24] Well, rapping's always been around
[01:53.08] (Well, it says that it's big time now)
[01:55.24] Every neighborhood had its own crew
[01:57.28] (That meant you against me) and me against you
[01:59.44] (They would jam every weekend at the neighborhood center)
[02:01.44] And charge a small price for the crowds to enter
[02:03.69] (The parties would be packed inside and out)
[02:05.89] To see who was best at rockin the house
[02:23.15] (It's all in Mr. Magic's Wand)
[03:12.24] Cause then Magic went on the radio
[03:14.11] And everybody said: "What a way to go!"
[03:16.33] The moment he went on the air
[03:18.46] It was plain to see a new phase was here
[03:20.65] He started out playing mostly rap
[03:22.65] Then they all said: "Nobody's into that"
[03:24.60] Well, they all turned out to be wrong
[03:27.06] Cause rappin on the mike had caught on strong
[03:29.20] Some still say it's not what's happenin
[03:31.29] After 'Rapper's Delight' went triple platinum
[03:33.46] The record world was in for a smash
[03:35.38] Sugarhill, Kurtis Blow, to Grandmaster Flash
[03:37.77] Blondie, Stevie Wonder, Teena Marie
[03:39.82] They even made a rapper out of me
[03:41.82] In no time at all a star was born
[03:44.07] And I think he owes it all to his Magic Wand
[04:04.06] Now that you heard our rap and you caught a contact
[04:05.54] (And by now you're all to be blasted)
[04:07.56] We want you all to know that we got to go
[04:09.61] (But it was big fun while it lasted)
[04:11.86] Hey y'all, but we'll be back again, so tell all your friends
[04:13.98] (Good things don't always come to an end)
[04:16.16] With somethin innovative (to rock you all well)
[04:18.15] From Ecstacy (and the Rapper Jalil)
[04:19.63]
