Beastie Boys - No Sleep 'Till Brooklyn lyrics

No sleep 'till Brooklyn

Foot on the pedal
Never ever false metal
Engine running hotter
Than a boiling kettle
My job ain't a job
It's a damn good time
City to city
I'm running my rhymes
On location
Touring around the nation
Beastie Boys always on vacation
Itchy trigger finger
But a stable turntable
I do what I do best
Because I'm willing and able
Ain't no faking
Your money I'm taking
Going coast to coast
To watch all the girlies shaking
While you're at the job
Working nine to five
The Beastie Boys at the garden
Cold kicking it live

No sleep 'till

Another plane, another train
Another bottle in the brain
Another girl, another fight
Another drive all night
Our manager's crazy
He always smokes dust
He's got his own room
At the back of the bus
Tour around the world,
You rock around the clock
Plane to hotel, girls on the jock
Trashing hotels
Like it's going out of style
Getting paid along the way
'Cause it's worth your while
Four on the floor
Ad Rock's out the door
MCA's in the back
Because he's skeezin' with a whore
We got a safe in the trunk
With money in a stack
With dice in the front
And Brooklyn's in the back
White boys got more rhymes

No sleep 'till
No sleep 'till Brooklyn [2x]

Ain't seen the light
Since we started this band
MCA get on the mike, my man
Born and bred in Brooklyn, the U.S.A
They call me Adam Yauch but I'm MCA
Like a lemon to a lime, a lime to a lemon
I sip the def ale with all the fly women
Limos, arenas, and TV shows
Autograph pictures and classy hoes
Step off, Homes, get out of my way
Taxing little girlies from here to L.A
Waking up before I get to sleep
'Cause I'll be rocking
This party eight days a week

No sleep 'till
No sleep 'till Brooklyn [9x]
Never sleep 'till
Brooklyn [2x]
