Can you remember... that sh!t was BANGIN'! (c) Sadat X

Heavy D - "In Living Color" Theme

you can do what you wanna do, in living color
you can do what you wanna do, in living color

you can walk on the moon, float like a balloon
see its never too late and its never too soon
take it from me its alright to be, in living color

and now that you feel that prejiduce is obsolute
and all mankind danced to the exact beat
and at night it was safe to walk down the street

you can do what you wanna do, in living color
you can do what you wanna do, in living color

everybody there is equally kind, in living color
whats mine is yours and yours is mine, in living color

and how would you feel knowin everybody was your friend
from thin to thick and through thick and thin
this egotistical trip could come to an end

you can do what you wanna do, in living color
you can do what you wanna do, in living color





DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - "Fresh Prince of Bel Air (The Long Version)"

now this is a story all about how
my life got flipped turned upside down
and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I become the prince of a town called Bel-Air

in west Philadelphia born and raised
on the playground is where I spent most of my days
chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
and all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
when a couple of guys who were up to no good
started makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mon scared
and said you're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
but she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
she give me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket
put my walkman on and said I might as well kick it
first class yo this is bad
drinkin' orange juice out of a champagne glass
is this what the people of Bel-Air live like
hmmm this might be all right
but wait I hear they're prissy ???? and all that
is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat
I don't think so I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air

well uh the plane landed and when I came out
there was a dude looked like a cop standin' there with my name out
I ain't tryin' to get arrested yet I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightening disapeared
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
the licensce plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
if anything I could say that this cab was rare
but I thought man forget it yo homes to Bel-Air

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
and I yelled to the cabbie yo homes smell ya later
looked at my kingdom I was finally there
to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-Air

Side note... I just saw a commercial for Sears' Back-To-School stuff... they have hopped on the knock-off streetwear tip crazy. they had a rope chain in the ad and knock off versions of those BAPE hoodies that zip up into masks. Can't say i'm totally shocked that they would push that type of clothing, but didn't think they would take it to that level. this is kind of frightening.
