The Naz Lyrics

[Verse 1: Sly Stone]
Lookit, all you cats and kitties out there whipping and wailing and ya jumping
Up and down sucking up all that old juice
Hitting and telling each other you're the greatest cat in the wilderness
Turned around and captain was the cruelest, the strongest, sweetest cat that ever stomped around on this sweet swinging sphere


And they call this here cat, the Naz

[Verse 2]
Naz was a carpenter kid, he had a hammer and a nail
He was like, like that
People wanna see what the Naz was like
Like wounded and walking, kicking him down the street walking done the path
Twelve hundred of them cats for kitties out there behind the Naz
And you look in the corner of their eyes and you see a little cat with the big free
You see that Naz? Naz said, "He living on the plain."
Walks from the twiddly little cat with the big frame
Looked down into the golden eyes of the soul and said, "Straightening!"
He, whipped that cat like everybody done blast for him
He put the bags straight on that girl
Hehe
(Yeah, he got the dig in and now you dug him before)

[Hook]
They want me to play the radio, the video, the audio, the voomvavoom, the audi-a, the voomvavoom, the audi-a, the voomvavoom, the radio, the video, the audio, the voomvavoom, the audi-a, the voomvavoom
They want me to play the radio, the video, the audio, the voomvavoom, the audi-a, the voomvavoom, hehehe
You know how he do, but if you don't you'll find out
Yeah, he got the dig in and now you dug him before
You know how he do, but if you don't you'll find out
Yeah, he got the dig in and now you dug him before
[Verse 3]
Now there's so many of them running behind the Naz
Before you know it's twelve thousand of them cats and kitties out there
Now they got to get out of town, he taking up all them
They gets 'bout forty-two miles out of town and ain't nobody got the first biscuit
Naz turned around said, "Yeah, yeah, huh, y'all hungry? Ain't ya', babies?"

[Hook]

[Verse 4]
Naz got them in deep piss and in one hand came [?]
Go to the Honeydew Street [?] and in the other was one of them old Mississippi River wish he hadn't taken it on fish
He spoke, cats flipped
The Naz never did nothing friendly
He made it, he laid it
Check this out, some of us trying not to be the leaders
Naz did that, Naz said we might as well all go at the same vibration
The Naz said one thing to find out does the crowd, to Naz ever though he answers
The Naz said, "Please, [?] [?]. Glory, hallelujah"

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
