Lyrics
Now let’s get right on down to the skit 
A baby is brought into a world of pits 
And if it could’ve talked that soon 
In the delivery room 
It would’ve asked the nurse for a hit 
The reason for this? 
The mother is a jerk 
Excuse me, junkie 
Which brought the work of the old 
Into a new life 
What a way 
But this what a way 
Has been a way of today 
Anyway 
Push couldn’t shove me to understand a path to a basehead 
Consumer should erase it in the first wave 
Cause second wave forms believers 
And believers will walk to it then even talk to it and say… 
(You got the body now you want my soul) 
Nah, can’t have none of that, tell ’em what to say Mase… 

(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 

Nah, no my brother 
No my sister 
Try to get hip to this 
Word, word to the mother 
I’ll tell the truth so bear my witness 
Fly like birds of a feather 
Drugs are like pleather 
You don’t wanna wear it 
No need to ask that question, just don’t mention 
You know what the answer is… 

Now I never fancied Nancy 
But the statement she made held a plate of weight 
I even stressed it to Wade 

Did he take any heed? 

Nah, the boy was hooked, you could’ve phrased the word “Base” 
And the kid just shook 
In his fashion class once an A now an F 
The rock rules him now 
The only designs left 
Were once clothes made for Oshkosh 
Has converted to nothing but stonewash 

Now hopping in a barrel is a barrel of fun 
But don’t hop in if you want to be down, son 
Cause that could mean down and out as an action 
What does it lead to? 
Dum-da-dum-dum 
People say what have I done for all my years 
My tears show my hard-earned work 
I heard shoving is worse than pushing 
But I’d rather know a shover than a pusher 
Cause a pusher’s a jerk 

(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 

Believe it or not the plot forms a fee more that charity 
But the course doesn’t coincide with the ride of insanity 
Is it a chant that slants the soul to fill for it? 
I know it’s the border that flaunts the order to kill for it 

Standing, scheming on a young one 
Taking his time, eight-ball for a cool pool player 
Racked it all, tried to break, miscued 
Got beat by the boy in blue 
Next day you’re out by the spot once more 
Looking hard for a crack in the hole 
I ask what’s the fix for the ill stuff 
Word to the Dero 
The answer should have been no 

Run me a score from the Funky Four Plus One More 
(It’s the joint) 
Rewind that back 
This is the age for a new stage of fiend 
Watch how the zombies scream 
It’s the crack 
Plain is plain it should explain it from the start 
Behind the ideals of cranking up the heart 
Now the base claims shop over every park 

(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Don’t Even Think About it) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go) 
(Say No Go)
