[00:00:04] Written by：Posdnuos/Maseo/Trugoy the Dove/Prince Paul

[00:00:08] 3

[00:00:09] That's the magic number

[00:00:11] Yes it is

[00:00:13] It's the magic number

[00:00:16] Somewhere in this hip-hop soul community

[00:00:19] Was born 3 mase dove and me

[00:00:21] And that's the magic number

[00:00:23] What does it all mean

[00:00:24] Difficult preaching is posdnuos' pleasure

[00:00:26] Pleasure and preaching starts in the heart

[00:00:28] Something that stimulates the music in my measure

[00:00:30] Measure in my music raised in three parts

[00:00:32] Casually see but don't do like the soul

[00:00:34] 'Cause seein' and doin' are actions for monkeys

[00:00:36] Doin' hip-hop hustle no rock and roll

[00:00:37] Unless your name's brewster cause brewster's a punk three

[00:00:39] Parents let go cause there's magic in the air

[00:00:41] Criticising rap shows you're out of order

[00:00:43] Stop look and listen to the phrase fred astaires

[00:00:45] And don't get offended while mase do-se-do's your daughter

[00:00:47] A tri camera rolls since our music's now set

[00:00:49] Fly rhymes are stored on a Da.I.S.Y. production

[00:00:52] It stands for da inner sound y'all and y'all can bet

[00:00:54] That the action's not a trick but showing the function

[00:00:56] Everybody wants to be a deejay

[00:00:58] Everybody wants to be an emcee

[00:00:59] But being speakers are the best

[00:01:02] And you don't have to guess

[00:01:03] De la soul posse consists of three

[00:01:05] And that's the magic number

[00:01:07] Dove

[00:01:08] This here piece of the pie

[00:01:09] Is not dessert but the course that we dine

[00:01:11] And three out of every darn time

[00:01:13] The effect is mmmm when a daisy grows in your mind

[00:01:15] Showing true position this here piece is

[00:01:18] Kissin' the part of the pie that's missin'

[00:01:20] When that negative number fills up the cavity

[00:01:24] Maybe you can subtract it

[00:01:26] You can call it your lucky partner

[00:01:28] Maybe you can call it your adjective

[00:01:32] But odd as it may be

[00:01:33] Without my 1 and 2 where would there be

[00:01:35] My 3

[00:01:36] Mase pos and me

[00:01:37] And that's the magic number

[00:01:40] Focus is formed by flaunts to the soul

[00:01:42] Souls who flaunt styles gain praises by pounds

[00:01:44] Common are speakers who are never scrolls

[00:01:46] Scrolls written daily creates a new sound

[00:01:48] Listeners listen 'cause this here is wisdom

[00:01:49] Wisdom of a speaker a dove and a plug

[00:01:51] Set aside illegal substance to feed 'em

[00:01:53] For now get 'em high off this dialect **

[00:01:56] Time is a factor so it's time that counts

[00:01:58] Count not the negative actions of one

[00:02:00] Speakers of soul say it's time to shout

[00:02:01] Three forms the soul to a positive sum

[00:02:04] Dance to this fix and flex every muscle

[00:02:06] Space can be filled if you rise like my lumber

[00:02:08] Advance to the tune but don't do the hustle

[00:02:10] Shake rattle roll to my magic number

[00:02:12] Now you may try to subtract it

[00:02:13] But it just won't go away

[00:02:16] Three times one

[00:02:17] What is it

[00:02:18] One two three

[00:02:19] And that's a magic number

[00:02:21] Yo what's up

[00:02:25] 1 2 3

[00:02:27] I say children what does it all mean

[00:02:30] Woah woah wo 1 2 3

[00:02:32] No more no less that's a magic number

[00:02:38] No more no less

[00:02:39] What it is

[00:02:42] No more no less

[00:02:48] No more no less

[00:02:50] Do the shang a lang

[00:02:54] No more no less

[00:02:58] No more no less

[00:03:02] Anybody in the audience ever get hit by a car

[00:03:04] No more no less

[00:03:06] How high's the water mama

[00:03:08] No more no less
