   Intro
   
   This speech is my recital, I think it's very vital
   To rock (a rhyme), that's right (on time)
   It's Tricky is the title, here we go...
   
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...it's Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...Tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tricky) Trrrrrrrrrrricky
   
   Verse 1
   
   I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly
   Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early
   These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me
   Or spend some time and rock a rhyme, I said "It's not that easy"
   
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...(How is it D?) It's Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Trrrrrricky)
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...Tricky (Tricky) Tricky
   
   Verse 2
   
   In New York the people talk and try to make us rhyme
   They really (hawk) but we just (walk) because we have no time
   And in the city it's a pity cos we just can't hide
   Tinted windows don't mean nothin', they know who's inside
   
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...(How is it D?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky) huh!
   
   Verse 3
   
   When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time
   I'm not singin', phone keep ringin' cos I make up a rhyme
   I'm not braggin', people naggin' cos they think I'm a star
   Always tearin' what I'm wearin', I think they're goin' too far
   A girl named Carol follows Daryll every gig we play
   Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she's jockin' Jay
   I ain't lyin', girls be cryin' cos I'm on TV
   They even bother my poor father cos he's down with me
   
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...(How is it?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
   It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
   It's Tricky...Tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tr-Tr-Tr-Tricky) Tr-tr-tr...
   
   Verse 4
   
   We are not thugs (we don't use drugs) but you assume (on your own)
   They offer coke (and lots of dope) but we just leave it alone
   It's like that y'all (y'all), but we don't quit
   You keep on (rock!) shock! Cos this is it...
