Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is only a rumor I heard
So I don't know how much truth it has
But it seems to have something to do
With the theory of unified fields
The theory holds the key
To all the world's mysteries, says Mr. Lamue
You're not me, and I am not you
But it could just be that we're the same
[Verse 2]
We all talk too much
We all think too much
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think you can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think I can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think you can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think I can rap?
[Verse 3]
Let's talk about phenomena
Did you know that there are corpuscle
We all emit through a force field
By which we can communicate
[Verse 4]
Except we all think
And talk and sing so loud
We don't notice them
We are headed in the same direction
Don't you know
Neither down nor up
[Verse 5]
We all talk too much
We all think too much
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think you can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think I can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think you can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think I can rap?
[Verse 6]
There's just one thing I'd like to say
Is I'm not in the best condition
I can see it up ahead
But it looks like a heat haze just out of reach
With Maitreya the savior
Waiting there on the other side
The enormous egg that holds us all
In my mother's womb
[Verse 7]
We all talk too much
We all think too much
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think you can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think I can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think you can rap?
Rap, rap, everybody rap
Rap, rap, do you think I can rap?
