Mama don't to Ph.D. in sociology To be aware of the revolution in the streets Papa trends keep changing like the tides upon the sea I'm gonna jump on the wagon now to rest my aching
I've made up my and I'm gonna get my piece too Now is the time there isn't a day to had it to here just watching that world go by This is the year that we do or we die
(chorus) out, sell out that's the name of the game Sell out, sell out that anybody can out, sell out I think you know what I mean Sell out, sell out up that funk machine
I'm tired of my back to please Critics who be pleased It's time I out for number one I looked out for me I've gotta the reality of living in the real world I end up an old man feeding peanuts to the squirrels
I finally heard the little in my head It gave me the word you wanna know it said? be a sap get rid of that cross you bear 'Cause the rap won't make you a millionaire
(chorus)
Sell out, sell out can't pay no bills with pride Sell out, out I know 'cause baby I tried Sell out, out it's easy once you concede Sell out, out that love ain't all you need Play that funky play that funky beat Play that funky music love ain't all you
The ivory tower's fallen The nickels and are spent I've given up in the air I afford the rent man has his selling price I'm the highest bid out of the clouds, Sir Rupert said And do what did
(Peddle yourself!) yourself you'd better take my advice Or sit on the shelf he be more precise Don't get me wrong I'd to be misconstrued But stringing along it's the left to do
(chorus)
Yeah out, sell out you've gotta move with the times Sell out, sell out or they'll surely you behind Sell out, sell out there's no sweeter sound the crash Sell out, sell out of freshly minted
Play that funky music play funky beat Play funky music love ain't all you need
Sell out out sell out Sell out sell out out
