Beastie Boys Lyrics

Album: To The 5 Boroughs

Right Right Now Now Lyrics

Once upon a time up on this mic 

 MC's be really workin' on what they write 

 With the sound delight we rock all night 

 And yes we're gonna party for the right to fight 

 We're international like Matt Takei 

 Rock the mic from Munich out to Taipei 

 Still around the way is where we'll stay 

 Say what we mean, mean what we say 

 Trajectories from the past are taking their toll and 

 What we do now is future moulding 

 Columbine bowling, childhood stolen 

 We need a bit more gun controlling 

 

 Right, Right, Now, Now 

 What is goin' on? 

 We, We, Gotta, Gotta 

 Get it goin' on 

 Be, Be, Fore, Fore 

 It's Too Far Gone 

 We gotta work together, it's been too long 

 

 When I get on you scream "Hoo Tight!" 

 Rockin' this flow I could go all night 

 I'm not here to fight, or incite 

 I'm like the beach in the Bahamas make you feel alright 

 I'm getting kind of tired of the situation 

 The US attacking other nations 

 And narration, on every station 

 False election's got me losing my patience 

 I'm a funky-ass Jew and I'm on my way 

 And yes I got to say fuck the KKK 

 And oh yeah hey, how about today? 

 If you want to set it off then let me hear you say 

 

 Right, Right, Now, Now 

 What is goin' on? 

 We, We, Gotta, Gotta 

 Get it goin' on 

 Be, Be, Fore, Fore 

 It's Too Far Gone 

 We gotta work together, it's been too long 

 

 I went to get a loan and they asked my race 

 I wrote down human inside the space 

 It's a disgrace how they try to debase 

 It ain't the bank's damn business how my lineage trace 

 Now let me drop a verse that's terse and concise 

 I'm an iron chef when I slice and dice 

 With the rhyme precise, the word is nice 

 So please pass me the Reunite on ice 

 Well let's go to work and not beserk 

 'Cause when the time comes the body goes to dirt 

 Try to smooth it out like Levert 

 Keep the mind alert and not revert 

 

 Right, Right, Now, Now 

 What is goin' on? 

 We, We, Gotta, Gotta 

 Get it goin' on 

 Be, Be, Fore, Fore 

 It's Too Far Gone 

 We gotta work together, it's been too long
