Ticking like a time bomb
Where did you come from
Nowhere that you can run
That is all done
Your eyes are getting salty
It’s not my fault
He’s gonna need assistance
That’s the difference
Boom! Vato loco has stepped in the room
Zoom! Now your homies will be singing this tune
Step back pinche colero ’cause we’re gonna explode
We got the place surrounded
Don’t be a hero
Bet you didn’t think that we thought of that
Came up with that shit way back
Innovation ruling the nation
The dance hall’s back
What you know about that, say
Let me introduce you
To the excitable crew
This is just how we do
Ticking like a time bomb
Watch me go off
Let me introduce you
To the excitable crew
This is just how we do
Ticking like a time bomb
Watch me go off
Ay ay ay ay
You know how we roll
Know I’m broke
And know I’ve been lonely
Know, you know we’ve been down
I’m rocking on the mic
Saying things that you like
We won’t let you down
We have the system of sound
The excitable crew
We do this with you
The innovator came to stay
So what you gonna do
This is what we want
And I say
This is what we need
G-g-go back in memory
To the time baby
A universe of hard core
So never stop living
Sing
Let me introduce you
To the excitable crew
This is just how we do
Ticking like a time bomb
Watch me go off
Let me introduce you
To the excitable crew
This is just how we do
Ticking like a time bomb
Watch me go off
I remember back in the day
We would work hard
Getting down our parts
There was no crew
Me and you
Planning out what to do
Work hard
Play hard
Getting down our parts
I remember back in the day
Let me introduce you
To the excitable crew
This is just how we do
Ticking like a time bomb
Watch me go off
Let me introduce you
To the excitable crew
This is just how we do
Ticking like a time bomb
Watch me go off
