Beastie Boys - The Move Lyrics






Yo..Hello..
It's times like this when I just can't stop
Can't wind your body without the body rock
Got schemes schematics blue prints on file
You gotta have dreams to make it all worthwhile
So as I take my time and realign
I wonder what it is I hope to find
I don't mean to brag I don't mean to boast
But I'm intercontinental when I eat french toast
Adrock with the New Edition
Gettin on down for the year 2000
A slight distraction can get you paid
And when it comes to that type shit I paved the way

BBoys to the early morn
BGirls be rockin on and on
BGirls to the break of dawn
BBoys be rockin on and on

Dogs love me cause I'm crazy sniffable
I bet you never knew I got the ill peripheral
In your home I'm cloned I'm on your headphones
I love it when you spazz out all alone
Cause I'm that fool that broke the key
I'm unlockable so don't check me
Got weight on my shoulders and things on my mind
The sky is falling and I'm falling behind
So I synthesize sounds as I patch my brain
Insane mind games move quick like flames
So now I wonder how sometimes you never know
Who be rockin y'all in stereo in stereo in stereo in stereo

No time like the present to work shit out
That's what I'm going on and on and on about
Not fakin just makin beats in the dungeon
Keep that shit funky cause the odor is pungent
No shame in my game just par for the path
I try to hone my craft because at hands the task
But I find I'm not playing with a full deck
I'm up to my neck like Toulouse Lautrec
All I wanna know is when is checkout time
So I could be in heaven with the rhythm rock rhyme
And when I'm with my man Shadi rock at the gates
We'll be rockin rhythms over disco breaks

BBoys to the early morn
BGirls be rockin on and on
BGirls to the break of dawn
BBoys be rockin on and on

[Spanish Crap]

    Hello...
    It's times like this when I just can't stop
    Can't wind your body without the body rock
    Got schemes, schematics blue prints on file
    You gotta have dreams to make it all worthwhile
    So as I take my time and realign
    I wonder what it is I hope to find
    I don't mean to brag I don't mean to boast
    But I'm intercontinental when I eat French toast
    Adrock with the new addition edition
    Gettin' on down for the year 2000
    A slight distraction can get you paid
    And when it comes to that type shit I paved the way
    BBoys to the early morn
    BGirls be rockin on and on
    BGirls to the break of dawn
    BBoys be rockin on and on
    Dogs love me cause I'm crazy sniffable

    Insane mind games move quick like flames
    So now I wonder how sometimes you never know
    Who be rockin y'all in ster-er-eo?
    In ster-er-eo!
    In ster-er-eo!
    In stereo ...

    No time like the present to work shit out
    That's what I'm going on and on and on about
    Not fakin' just makin' beats in the dungeon

    I.... ....

    They actually came out in late 70s. Old school Polly wog stew punk rock. Also very good album.

  52. W.... ....

    I discovered BB with Sabotage but I was way too young to buy anything, then Intergalactic on MTV in 1998 (yes, MTV used to put music) made me buy my first BB album with 14 years old... And I got back in their discography since then. I am just so sad I could never see theme live

  53. B.... ....

    El Rey y yo...crazy yo'

  54. y.... ....

    the end of this song is amazing, specially if you know spanish

    Yes and yes you imbecile.

  59. D.... D....

    Wish someone would dig up the Stretch & Bobbito sample in the beginning.

  60. R.... K....

    so hard to believe that there will never be any more......miss you mca

    R.... K....

    Such a Shame. Wish Adam and Mike would put out some unreleased tracks. You know there's tons of them.

  61. M.... ....

    For some reason I feel like this song might fit in Jet Set Radio Future. I don't know why

    M.... ....

    Every Beastie Boys song could easily fit in to the Jet Set Radio soundtrack.

  62. K.... S....

    +Kim Stig Andersen are not italianos, they are chilenos, from southamerica

    J.... ....

    The song's name's 'El rey y yo' by Chilean band Los angeles negros. :)

  70. s.... M....

    i love Beastie Boy song since the 80s but it cant beat You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)

    s.... M....

    It's such a great song that The Beastie Boys never played it live again after 1988....

    If you seriously think that's their best song then you haven't listened to a lot of their material. 

    s.... M....

    @michael zucker I was talking about Fight For Your Right. Perhaps I should have been more clear. My bad.

  71. M.... B....

    GTA 5 brought me here with the "Los Angeles Negros - El Rey Y Yo". New I heard that song in a Beastie Boys track.

    M.... B....

    Same here dude!
