[Intro]
Uh Huh! Oh word! Uh hmmm!!!

[Verse One]
Me and my team played the deuce
Back when you used to think you could boost your high with a loose
In front of the old +Port Authority+
I was the bustdown King, Newport authority
The internal biological menthol mechanism 
Let me know the exact time to pass it
Ace, eat a hot dog get mustard on your face
42nd street is the place
Play stop sign on that strip all the Time, Square
Wherever the hoes is at, I'm there
At the theatre catchin' flicks
I saw you with your bum ass girl wearin' matchin' kicks (Bum)
Son, I even sold Stevie Nicks (Uh!)
And an O of regs to Fran Leibowitz (Who that?)
There's none of that now, we make hits
Like Times Square at night, I'm lit

[Chorus] (*Sample from I Can't Wait by Nu Shooz)
(*Baby) On the deuce (On the deuce)  on the four (On The four)
On the deuce (On the deuce) on the four (On the four)
(*I-I-I can't wait) On the deuce (On the deuce) Forty deuce 
(*Baby) Some clap on the 2 and the 4, others clap on the 1 and the 3 (I won't judge Yall though)
(*Baby)You walkin' down 42nd at night
(*I-I-I can't wait) You might run into me

[Verse Two]
Clap on the 2 and the 4
Hit the bank, take paper out like new shoes in the store
You know I can't wait to buy new shoes
Zooted, bumpin' +I Can't Wait+ by Nu Shooz
808's smelling like Reaganomics
On 42nd, declinin' offers to see comics
The rap game is a comedy show
If I need a laugh I just watch their video
I wanna know who's your yay supplier
Tell em to meet me in front of +Gray's Papaya+
Where it used to be, smokin' a loosey
Just left the +Hard Rock Cafe+, feelin' woozy
Got the blues walkin' past BB Kings+
See how long it take to get to the shuttle, time it
How he flip Nu Shooz in this tough guy climate?
Like +Times Square+ at night, I'm lit

[Chorus] (*Sample from I Can't Wait by Nu Shooz)
(*Baby) On the deuce (On the deuce)  on the four (On The four)
On the deuce (On the deuce) on the four (On the four)
(*I-I-I can't wait) On the deuce (On the deuce) Forty deuce 
(*Baby) Some clap on the 2 and the 4, others clap on the 1 and the 3 (I won't judge Yall though)
(*Baby)You walkin' down 42nd at night
(*I-I-I can't wait) You might run into me

[Bridge]
Never duckin' out the way for a tourist shot
Fuck with me that's more business for the florist spot
Got two fire verses and the chorus hot, plus a eight bar bridge
A peak into this man's mental on +Grand Central+
Tell a story and throw in a hint of oriental
Skated through +Bryant Park+ when the sky went dark
Hit the diner and ordered an omelette

[Chorus] (*Sample from I Can't Wait by Nu Shooz)
(*Baby) On the deuce (On the deuce)  on the four (On The four)
On the deuce (On the deuce) on the four (On the four)
(*I-I-I can't wait) On the deuce (On the deuce) Forty deuce 
(*Baby) Some clap on the 2 and the 4, others clap on the 1 and the 3 (I won't judge Yall though)
(*Baby)You walkin' down 42nd at night
(*I-I-I can't wait) You might run into me
