Verse 1:
There's a desAtination a lDittle up the roadEm from the habitations and the towns we know
A pAlace we Emsaw the Dlights turn Bmlow with the Ajig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow
PullingA out jives and Djamboree Emhandouts two turntables and a microphone
BotAtles andEm cans Djust Bmclap yAour hands just clap your hands
Chorus 1:
EWhere it's at! I got Atwo turntables and a microphone
EWhere it's at! I got Atwo turntables and a microphone
EWhere it's at! I got Atwo turntables and a microphone
EWhere it's at! I got Atwo turntables and a microphone
["take me home in my elevator bones!"]
["that was a good drum break!"]
Verse 2:
Pick yourself Aup off the Dside of the roEmad with your elevator bones and your whip-flash tones
MeAmbers onEmly hypDonotizers Bmmove throuAgh the womb like ambulance drivers
Shine your Ashoes with your Dmicrophone Emblues here suits with your parachute fruits
Passing the dAutchieEm from DcoastBm to coast Alet the man get loose while I rock the most
Chorus 2:
EWhere it's at! I got Atwo turntables and a microphone
EWhere it's at! I got Atwo turntables and a microphone
