Guard Your Grill

Naughty By Nature


Intro: Kay Gee 

*phone dialling* 
(Hello?) 
Hello it's '91. Buckle up guard your grill! Hee hee 
(Har what the fuck?) 
Has this ever happened to you? 
Can you name this tune? 
These victims knew how to guard they grill this would've never happened! 

Verse 1: Treach 

I put two and two together and I came up with four 
You are forever forgot forbid shouldn't have to say much more 
I been thru more crews than a flute, yeah I'll show ya 
This is so damned scrap I betcha bro don't know ya 
You tried to get cool and say peace, save that peace for a jigsaw 
Stay back and watch a real MC get raw 
I never know, never know when another will come to diss this 
But if and whenever they come I'm runnin this merry fist miss 
I shooker the crook and shaker the fake to get like a quick stick 
It's just another one dud and is dismissed 
Kitty guard your grill, well be for real, you ain't built 
I'm silly-ho smackin MC's on a ninety degree tilt 
The reason that it's tilted cos you're guilty, too hard to guard 
It's not you're tryin too gay, you're tryin too hard 
How hard can your guard be, I say wuz up? 
Guard your grill, knuckle up, put em up, yup! 

Chorus: 

Guard your grill, knuckle up 
I ain't the type to give up 
Guard your grill, knuckle up 
I smoke first, so what's up 
Guard your grill, knuckle up 
Put em up, you ain't tough 
Guard your grill, knuckle up! 

Verse 2: Treach 

I give em much business, an Aspirin 
Damn, I love a glass chin 
What are ya askin for mercy, I'm laughin 
Huh, you know the game, you know the name and you know the rep 
You know the Kay, you know the Vin and you know the Treach 
There's no sleepin, no nottin, no rest and hey 
No snoozin, no dozin, no f'in way 
Heapin things up like a Coke cup 
Wind me up but y'all I gets the low wits tha rough stuff 
And after enough to cut ya off a piece, still have nuff 
Then go around to them and him because ??? ??? 
I I got posse full a fighters all fly like a chopper 
Use to couldn't take em out cos they was rowdy hip-hoppers 
There's so much gold for roast, the ??? don't knock us 
My nuts are my only homies that can hang proper 
At school I had a lot, I filled with VCR's and Vodka 
I had two girls, one a runner, one a trotter 
Back then I wore briefs, tella starter, gettin hotter 
Then I grew yea long so I had to switch to boxers 
How hard can your guard be, I say what's up? 
Guard your grill, knuckle up, put em up, duck 

Chorus 

Verse 3: Treach 

I don't lay, I lie, who knows like Pinnochio 
Never been to Tokyo or *?Keeper's Day Bolochio?* 
Guard your grill, here's a feel, I rush hard 
I got the fliest ride out here, the '91 bus card 
So callin me for a ride ain't the answer 
Huh, you want a lift ya better pick up a transfer 
Sayin we will go for one cut, now we're dead 
Oh yaeh, that's bout as funny as Barbara Bush in a bobsled 
Now how wrong can you be to think we play 
Even a broken clock is right at least twice a day 
So now ya feelin real low, ya no flow-crow 
You slow hobo, stiffer than Robo 
Oh, here's another side of bein real quick 
You might speak it fulla cracks, but you still ain't shhh... 
So don't try at those same style battle cry 
I rock the U-train, the routes that I battle by 
I listen to sister shit, it til they quite slow 
No matter that white rap, shoot a pharoah with a psycho 
Put down ya handgun, up which'cha hands son 
Look cops they come, I ain't the damned one 
I was only three steps from a peace prize 
Pieces laid, piece of his eyes and his left thigh 
Knuckle up, put em up, yeah guard your grill 
And that's comin from Illtown, down the hill 

Chorus
