[Verse 1: DMC]

25 years ago a friend of mine

Asked me to say some MC rhymes

So I said this rhyme I'm about to say

The rhyme was def and then it went this way

Took a test to become an MC

DJ Run said "D, come and rhyme with me"

So I climbed inside of Larry's cadillac

The caddy drove off and we never came back

The car we rode in was a car called rap

That's the way it is and it's like that

I gotta give props to all hip-hop

And I'm gonna keep rhymin' till the day I drop

[Chorus: DMC & Sam Sparro]

Just as I suspected, you can't touch me

D to the A double R Y L

You wanna know why I'm still raisin' hell

And you stand corrected by DMC

I'm fine like wine

I get better with time

And all the young girls sing "do do do do do"

[Verse 2: DMC]

Sucker MCs make history

And everybody in the streets wanna be an MC

I thank hip-hop for adopting me

And helpin' me get where I got to be

Some people seem to think that to be an MC

You need a closet full of clothes and iced out jewelry

Pocket full of dollars, cars in every flavor

[?] behavior

Sorry to say that's how it was before

But people aren't callin' for that no more

You gotta give a performance 'cause by now you should know

That you're givin' a party, not a fashion show (oh oh oh)

[Chorus: DMC & Sam Sparro]

Just as I suspected, you can't touch me

D to the A double R Y L

You wanna know why I'm still raisin' hell

And you stand corrected by DMC

Yeah

[Bridge: DMC]

Everybody wanna rap, but that's not all

But a real MC you do not call

Cause you can't write a rhyme at a quarter to two

You need a real MC before the jam is through

Now fake ass rappers and all [?]

You need to take a record from childhood back

[Chorus: DMC & Sam Sparro]

Just as I suspected, you can't touch me

D to the A double R Y L

You wanna know why I'm still raisin' hell

And you stand corrected by DMC

I'm fine like wine

I get better with time

And all the young girls sing "do do do do do"

Just as I suspected, you can't touch me

D to the A double R Y L (Yeah, ow)

You wanna know why I'm still raisin' hell

And you stand corrected by DMC

I'm fine like wine

I get better with time

And all the young girls sing "do do do do do"
