[Chorus]
Tra-la-la-la-la✦ (Ha, yes, yes, y'all!)
Tra-la-la-la-la,✦ tra-la-la-la-la✦ (Flipmode✦ Squad, y'all)
Tra-la-la-la-laaa✦ (We reign supreme in 1997!)
Ooh, ooh-ooh✦ (When Disaster✦ Strikes,✦ you will all feel)
Tra-la-la-la-la✦ (When Disaster✦ Strikes,✦ you will all see)
Tra-la-la-la-la,✦ tra-la-la-la-la✦
Tra-la-la-la-laaa✦ (When Disaster✦ Strikes,✦ you will all bear witness)✦
Ooh, ooh-ooh✦ (To the Most High Exalted)✦
[Verse 2]
Yo, hehehe✦
Yo, I keeps flow so ridiculous✦
Rhyme, flow taste good like a handful of cherry✦ licorice✦
Practice✦ your rhyme or be the local✦ practitionist
Well, you can try bein' a doctor or bein' a local✦ obstetricianist
See, you can be somethin', quit tryin' to work so fuckin'✦ hard towards nothin'✦
This rhymin'✦ shit was never✦ designed for every✦ swollen muffin,✦ yo!
I'm sayin', why y'all niggas✦ think that y'all could really✦ see my Squad?
And if we hit you hard, that's when you feel the power✦ of the God
Do it right, and big up my peeps and A-Alikes✦
On alike,✦ repel,✦ especially feel when disaster✦ strikes✦
Extremely delicate like the blowin'✦ out of candlelights
The quiet killin'✦ surprises niggas✦ whenever they wanna✦ fight
That type of shit that shine and blind a nigga✦ eyesight, aight?
We keepin'✦ it tight, y'all niggas✦ don't want it, right?
You will never✦ ever✦ get no wins inside✦ mi casa✦
We killin'✦ all impostors like we killin'✦ cucarachas
Bounce to award✦ ceremonies like we winnin'✦ Oscars, rhymin'✦ rosters
Eating✦ enough exotic✦ pasta,✦ ha, yo, we keep it movin'✦ for all o' y'all
Freak y'all niggas✦ out while I'm makin'✦ y'all niggas✦ fall
Disaster✦ will hit ya quick anytime you wanna✦ brawl
Perm press a nigga✦ back, peel them off the wall
So tell me, why do you be wastin'✦ your time bein' mad at us?
Every✦ voice should sing, and help the music✦ sound miraculous✦
[Chorus]
Tra-la-la-la-la✦ (Ha, oh yes, y'all)
Tra-la-la-la-la,✦ tra-la-la-la-la✦ (This situation)
Tra-la-la-la-laaa✦ (Has now been brought before✦ your very✦ eyes!)
Ooh, ooh-ooh✦ (And as we carry✦ on)
Tra-la-la-la-la✦ (Flipmode✦ Squad continues to conquer the world!)
Tra-la-la-la-la,✦ tra-la-la-la-la✦ (When disaster✦ strikes,✦ you will all fear!)
Tra-la-la-la-laaa✦ (When disaster✦ strikes,✦ you will all bear witness!)✦
Ooh, ooh-ooh✦ (To the Most High Exalted!)✦
