Now, here's a little story I've got to tell about
Three bad brothers you know so well
It started way back in history with
J-Toth, Davey and folk rap Rob G

Jump off your back foot, slide that front one
Up your black grip, good, that back one comes
Up with that kick, huh, nice, might grab mine
Land, and back again, like nine lifetime's worth

Of practice every day
My athletic urges challenged in every way
Gymnastic balance on a board that was made for surfing sidewalks
Man I have to skate

Just one rule oh, there are none fool
Skate industrial pipes and any well drained pool
Transitions, curbs, wall rides and big hills that make you drool
Scooters make for perfect tools

Catch a ride for a thirty foot tailslide
Or off-road for a dirty foot hayride
Eyes peeled for that officer who stays by
Illegal ops like weed and gay pride

Dude, did you see that new Bones Brigade skate video public domain with
Ray Barbee and Frankie Hill?
Yeah, have you seen shackle me not buy H Street yet?
No way! Oh, there's a way

What's this, Jason Lee busts the first tre flip?
Not! Rodney popped them back when Jas was like yay big
But didn't Templeton invents the alley impossible?
Nope, Rodney, it was mission improbable

He'd visualize a trick in his mind and press rewind
And watch it eighty more times
Before a try but he never really did that
He'd just stick that trick and then switch stance

Switchstance? Switch that trick up, what?
You are saying he could flip that
Goofy and regular? Nah, they must have taped those
Frames from funny angles, no one can make no

Switchstance that sick, I'm telling you dude
Say it ain't so man Sorry
I can see where this is going to go man
Guess I'll strap up and hit the snow man

Hey! Have you heard about Solomon Agha
Breaks his ankle but still wants to skate
So he learns all his tricks backwards? Old news bro
Haven't you seen the plan B video? What?

By the time my tre flip became poppable and my
Impossibles wrapped around vertical and not horizontal
The pros put in some burly work
And up jumped the learning curve

And they were doing it and doing it well
When Colin McKay hit puberty it all jelled
Gonz had only dabbled a little in competition
But most didn't notice him switching

Yeah, practice, practice
Man this has its drawbacks, that's if
I want to ride at the top of the ranks
No thanks, but I let my soul hang

Kickflip first then
Switch flip, learned it!
Another day you elusive switch tre
It's a fact you will soon have to face someday

Yeah, yeah I know, I know
Thanks man, got it bro!
Meanwhile, I'll style perfect melancholies with a smile
God bless the child who

Been had a little story named Paul Revere
Just me and my story in my 14th year
Writing by my hand, written up fast
Careless copies to be xeroxed to get the wrap

One lonely emcee I be
Got multiple personalities
The sun was beating down on my face and back
My hair was getting blond my ears were getting black

Looking for a world I ran into a high
Her name was Mary Jane she said howdy, I said bye

So, so that's a little story of our skating history
Skaters and creators as far as the eye can see
Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh
