[00:21.36]Hear ye, hear ye, from far and near
[00:23.54]The one they call the big daddy kane is here
[00:25.73]To deliver a message to everyone everywhere
[00:28.16]So listen up party people cause this you should hear
[00:30.66]Its a story of a far-away atmosphere
[00:33.23]That you will find very rare and far beyond compare
[00:35.66]All is sincere and rather debonair
[00:38.16]So lets all gather around, because...
[00:39.87]
[01:00.16]Off to a place you thought was unreal
[01:02.59]Where people of the world do know how to chill
[01:04.84]Everything remains cool and calm where you are
[01:07.21]And if you ask about crime, they allll say,
[01:09.26]
[01:10.20]They wouldnt even know what you mean
[01:12.07]Cause its a different program, yall know the routine
[01:14.57]Where people work hard for a decent buck
[01:17.00]And you can wear truck jewelry without being stuck
[01:19.18]Never wondering whether your house is all right
[01:21.93]So go leave your vcr on the porch overnight
[01:24.24]And as for the people they all stand proud
[01:26.79]Senior citizens party with the hip-hop crowd
[01:29.17]You can hang at a jam till the break of dawn
[01:31.85]And leave without your bally shoes getting stepped on
[01:34.16]Everyone walks around in their right mind and all
[01:36.41]Because crack aint nothing but a hole in the wall
[01:39.22]So those who wish to live with glare and flair
[01:41.40]Theres a place that this can be done, and yo...
[01:44.52]
[02:03.99]What I discovered may just only seem
[02:05.80]As something that you find in your wildest dream
[02:08.67]But!on the real tip, you will see
[02:11.22]Im not playing, what Im saying is reality
[02:13.54]There is a place people live with joy
[02:15.53]That the next man cannot come along and destroy
[02:17.90]No one faces problems, no one says sorry
[02:20.40]And war aint nothing but a game on atari
[02:22.95]This message also applies to other nations
[02:25.48]Like africa for instance, where theres starvation
[02:27.91]But if you come with me, youre sure to see
[02:30.53]Ethiopians can eat in red lobster for free
[02:32.65]And people that you saw before that were poor
[02:35.15]Will never ever see the situation no more
[02:37.46]Cause in this world everyones a millionaire
[02:39.81]
[02:40.56]Are you sick?
[02:41.24]And what the hell is welfare?
[02:42.42]Fashions are smashing for all to flaunt
[02:44.86]And we can get anything that we want
[02:46.73]So dont think you cant afford expensive design
[02:49.60]Because fresh gucci wear is only $5.99
[02:52.41]So come ye all and attend this affair
[02:54.59]As we journey to the promised land, and...
[02:57.28]
[03:11.95]Since Im the type of guy that laughs and jokes
[03:14.13]This may sound funny, but seriously folks
[03:16.56]Its a shame that people today must live
[03:18.80]In a world thats operating oh so negative
[03:21.30]But I found a place designed especially for you
[03:23.93]Where peace and harmony is everyones culture
[03:26.17]So lets all gather around before this world corrupts
[03:28.66]And we dont even need scotty to beam us up
[03:31.60]Because...
