Skills to Pay the Bills
Par Beastie Boys
Album : Live in Lake Forest, CA
I've got the skills to pay the bills
I got the, got the, got the skills to pay the bills
I've got the skills to pay the bills

What you got? I got the skills to pay the bills

I'm Mike D and I'm bustin' out trap kits

The time has come so I'm going to rap this

You Rip Van Winkle, now you're gonna wake up

MCs, pick up a hobby that you're gonna take up

Well, on the stage I'm known to break fool

But when I'm at the table, it's the Futterman's rule

Workin' on my game 'cause it's time to tax

I'm on a crazy mission to wax Bob Mack

Up to the top, 'til the very last drop

I'll make you tapes of the rhymes I say

I'm selling sex rhymes by the pound

You horny MCs, I watch you getting around my

The skills to pay the bills

I got the, got the, got the skills to pay the bills
I got the, got the, got the skills to pay the bills
I got the skills to pay the bills, ya'll

So it better pull through when it comes to me

Let it go down like it's supposed to be

Words together like birds in a flock

Ah yes rhymes on time like the hands on a clock

Well, I'm an epileptic, a skept-a-cleptic

I'm cutting up the beats from the bear, I clept it

I fucked around and then I lost my tooth

I'm telling everybody it's the goddamn truth

Like Dennis Coffey, I'm a Scorpio

Like my man Schneider, I'm a super ho

Making mountains out of molehills and rockin' some mo' skills

Butt naked beats with butt naked fills

I got the skills (what skills?)
To pay the bills
I got the skills (what skills?)
To pay the bills
I got the skills (what skills?)
To pay the bills
I got the skills to pay the bills, ya'll

A-wella', wella', wella', wella', welcome back

I don't sell bullets and I don't sell crack

Rub a little oil on my neck and back

Now listen baby doll, we outta hit the sack

The original, Young Aboriginal

Continued evolution of an individual, well, I'll tell ya

Got so many rhymes, ya know my throat is sore

It's 1992 and still no one to vote for

Well, like my words is what I'm seeing through my own eyes

A little vision of the truth in a world of lies

When it comes to coming off, I like to get my fill

Well, I got the skills

I got the skills to pay the bills

I got the, got the, got the skills to pay the bills

What you got, Mike? My skills to pay the bills

I got the skills to pay the bills, y'all

Woo, getta, got, gotta, got, gotta, got some

We got the mad skills in '92, boy

Yeah, you know what I'm saying

Skills, y'all, I got skills to pay the bills

Skills, y'all, skills to pay the bills

What skills? Skills, skills to pay the bills

Yeah, yeah, skills to pay the bills

What skills? Money, money
What skills? Money, money

What skills? Makin', makin', makin' money

What skills? Makin', makin' money

What skills, ya'll? I gotta pay the bills

I got skills, y'all, to pay the bills

I got skills, ya'll

I got a, I got a, dollar, dollar bills, ya'll

I gotta pay the rent

I got skills to pay the rent

Mario C, yeah, he's paid the bills

Ad-Rock, yeah, let's pay the bills
