Testo The mall (feat. g-dep and shiggy sha) Gang Starr

The mall (feat. g-dep and shiggy sha)

Intro/Chorus: repeat 2X

Make money money -- GO SHOPPIN!
Take money money -- GO SHOPPIN!
No matter what the weather, winter spring or fall
We'll be doin it... "at the mall"

[G-Dep]

Yo what the deal cousin, gave him a pound now we huggin
in the mall thuggin, buggin, spent a few hundred

Shorties must be lovin, shit, jigg to my Wallow's
They watch like Movado so I floss like I'm lotto

You ain't loungin, til you've been countin by the thousands

Profilin, pushin more weight than your medallion

We be wildin, lockin blocks down just like the Island
Dough pilin, we keeps it in the family like Italians
Ballin, cop some Charles Jordan and some icebergs

Ice herbs, nice curves, girlfriend with the white fur

Pushed up, feel her like some shots of Tequila
Said her man's a dealer, with all these bags from Antilla
He got to be, but you hot to me, you under lock and key?

Laid it down properly, this cat at Stern's watchin me

Moved on me sloppily, prepare for the fallout
with gats to blow the wall out, clear the mall out

Chorus

[
Shiggy Sha]
Yo, don't be mad at me, I used to be

King Raggedy, fiends naggin me, shit I had to breathe

Gradually, rocked casually, Sha passed the leave

Vaseline slick shit, green stick shit

Honey got some mean lipstick, my knot's this thick

And I cop the meanest shit, still ride DISCUS
but cops frisk us, the block whispers

Theft need to stop, how we cop
but you can Guess like them jeans you rock

For now I'm rollin right, cause I had four faces
fightin four cases in ?North face? of Dolemite
So if he's here I ace the toners out my holdin tight

Shorty lookin innocent there, in Benetton gear

Nuttin innocent here, this ?henneson gear?

Give us a year, to really see clear, through these Cartiers
And do it party yea is what I'll probably hear

Sharkskin is what I'll probably wear, designed by Pierre, trust me

And look lovely with it

Cop a 4.2 and get ugly with it, snugly fitted, ruggedly hittin

Fitted in my Coogi knitted, compliments on the doobie did it

Got the movie rented if the crew be with it yo

Chorus 1/2

[Guru]

Most times I'm casual, but easily I switch
to some fly shit, like some silk suits by Paul Smith
And purchase some kicks by Kenneth Cole
Cop a Hilfiger, or Polo goose, for when it's cold

Armani, and Gaultier specs cover my eyes

The definition of jiggy so you best to recognize

At the mall, I'm baggin up, much more than gear

Victoria, be whisperin mad Secrets in my ear

She wanted me to knock her in the back of Foot Locker
I chuckled as she kicked more game than soccer

Others try to copy, I see em when they mock me

Baseball cap bent, the fresh scent is 'seemiyaka?
All the way from Green Acre's to the Beverly Center
heads turn, and I'm the main concern when I enter

At Albee Square, niggaz wouldn't even dare
with that fake thuggish ruggish when them Brooklyn kids be in there

Saw ?newriqi L' and then a sweet for my girl

Stylin, on the cell phone smilin, it's my world
Can't forget the Avorex, pocket for the royalty checks

My crew be showin loyalty, plus utmost respect

Yo son, go pioneer them bimbos, while I get some Timbo's
Later on that night you'll find them nymphos
That's how it goes cause mad heads be in the mall
Let's breeze, we got a show, plus I got another phone call
