Vapors - Biz Markie[00:00:00]

Radio TV and even the press know the meaning of vapors[00:00:00]

The meanin' of this word without no doubt[00:00:05]

Means nobody wants to be there when you're down and out[00:00:08]

Once you're established and got a lot of money[00:00:10]

Everybody wanna be your buddy and honey[00:00:13]

Like tall buildings they call skyscrapers[00:00:15]

Can you feel it[00:00:20]

Nothin' can save ya[00:00:22]

For this is the season of catchin' the vapors[00:00:23]

And since I got time what I'm gonna do[00:00:26]

Is tell ya how to spread it throughout my crew[00:00:28]

Wel you all know TJ Swan who sang on my records[00:00:31]

Made the music nobody beats the biz[00:00:33]

Well check it[00:00:35]

Back in the days before this began[00:00:36]

He usually tried to talk to this girl name Fran[00:00:38]

The type of female with fly Gucci wear[00:00:41]

With big trunk jewelry and extensions in her hair[00:00:43]

When swan tried to kick it she always fessed[00:00:46]

Talkin' about baby please you work for UPS[00:00:49]

Since he wasn't no type of big drug dealer[00:00:51]

My man TJ Swan didn't appeal to her[00:00:54]

But now he trucks gold and wears fly valley boots[00:00:56]

Rough leather fashions and tough silk suits[00:00:59]

Now she stop frontin' an' wants to speak[00:01:02]

And be comin' to all the shows[00:01:04]

Every single weekend[00:01:06]

To get his beeper number she'd be beggin' please[00:01:07]

Dyin' for the day to get skeezed[00:01:09]

She caught the vapors[00:01:12]

She caught the vapors[00:01:17]

She caught the vapors[00:01:22]

She caught the vapors[00:01:27]

I got another partner that's calm and plain[00:01:33]

He goes by the name of the big daddy Kane[00:01:35]

A mellow type of fellow that's laid back[00:01:37]

Back in the days he was nothin' like that[00:01:40]

I remember when he used to fight every day[00:01:42]

What grown ups would tell him he would never obey[00:01:45]

He wore his pants hangin' down and his sneakers untied[00:01:47]

And a rasta type Kango tilted to the side[00:01:50]

Around his neighborhood people treated him bad[00:01:53]

And said he was the worst thing his mom's ever had[00:01:55]

They said that he will grow up to be nothin' but a hoodlum[00:01:58]

Or either in jail or someone would shoot him[00:02:01]

But now he's grown up to their surprise[00:02:03]

Big daddy got a hit record sellin' worldwide[00:02:06]

Now the same people that didn't like him as a child be sayin'[00:02:08]

Can I borrow a dollar ooh you're a star now[00:02:11]

They caught the vapors[00:02:13]

They caught the vapors[00:02:18]

They caught the vapors[00:02:23]

They caught the vapors[00:02:29]

Now I got a cousin by the name of Von Lee[00:02:34]

Better known to y'all as cut master cool V[00:02:37]

He cuts scratch transform with finesse[00:02:39]

And all that mess[00:02:43]

Well I remember when he first started to rock[00:02:45]

And tried to get his job in a record shop[00:02:46]

He was in it to win it but the boss fronted[00:02:49]

Said sorry Mr. Lee but there's no help wanted[00:02:52]

Now my cousin Von still tried on and on and on[00:02:54]

'Til the like break of dawn[00:02:58]

To put this job in effect[00:03:00]

But they'd look right past him and be like next[00:03:02]

Now for the year of 88[00:03:05]

Cool V is makin' dollars so my cousin's like straight[00:03:07]

He walks into the same record shop as before[00:03:10]

And the boss'll be like Von welcome to my store[00:03:12]

Offerin' him a job but now he don't want it[00:03:15]

Damn it feels goo to see people up on it[00:03:17]

'Cause I remember when at first they wasn't[00:03:20]

Now guess what they caught from my cousin[00:03:23]

The vapors[00:03:25]

They caught the vapors[00:03:30]

They caught the vapors[00:03:35]

They caught the vapors[00:03:41]

Last subject of the story is about Biz Mark[00:03:46]

I had to work for mine to put your body in park[00:03:48]

When I was a teenager I wanted to be down[00:03:51]

With a lot of M.C. deejayin' crews in town[00:03:53]

So in school on Nobel Street I say can I be down champ[00:03:56]

They said no and treated me like a wet food stamp[00:03:58]

After gettin' rejected I was very depressed[00:04:01]

Sat and wrote some def doo doo rhymes at my rest[00:04:04]

When I used to come to parties they'd make me pay[00:04:06]

I'd have to beg to get on the mike and rap that day[00:04:09]

I was never into girls I was just into my music[00:04:11]

They acted like I wanted to keep it[00:04:14]

Instead of tryin' to use it[00:04:15]

But now things switched without belief[00:04:17]

Yo biz do you remember me from Nober Street chief[00:04:19]

We used to be down back in the days[00:04:22]

It happens all the time and never ceases to amaze[00:04:24]

They caught the vapors[00:04:27]

They caught the vapors[00:04:32]

They caught the vapors[00:04:37]

They caught the vapors[00:04:42]

They caught the vapors[00:04:48]

They caught the vapors[00:04:52]

The vapors[00:05:39]

The vapors[00:05:44]
