Please post all that you appreciate about the Best band to listed to in the summer sitting on a porch drinkin a beer and well you can figure out the rest.

Ill start it off. I appreciate how their music makes me so happy and reminds me of better times when I didnt have a car note, cc bills and I could call in sick and go get drunk and call over the ladies and go swimmin o r wander the city skating on public property running from security guards in the nice warm Chicago Summer.

THANK YOU MIKE D, MCA and AD-Rock

    Girls, all I really want is girls
    And in the morning it's girls
    Cause in the evening it's girls

    I like the way that they walk
    And it's chill to hear them talk
    And I can always make them smile
    From White Castle to the Nile

    Back in the day
    There was this girl around the way
    She liked by home-piece M.C.A.
    He said he would not give her play
    I asked him, "Please?" he said, "You may."
    Her pants were tight and that's ok
    If she would dance I would D.J.
    We took a walk down to the bay

    I hope she'll say, "Hey me and you should hit the hay!"
    I asked her out she said, "No way!"
    I should have probably guessed their gay
    So I broke North with no delay
    I heard she moved real far away
    That was two years ago this May
    I seen her just the other day
    Jockin' Mike D. to my dismay

    Girls - to do the dishes
    Girls - to clean up my room
    Girls - to do the laundry
    Girls - and in the bathroom
    Girls, that's all I really want is girls
    Two at a time I want girls
    With new wave hairdos I want girls
    I ought to whip out my girls, girls, girls, girls, girls!

    Now here's a little story I've got to tell
    About three bad brothers you know so well
    It started way back in history
    With Adrock, M.C.A., and me - Mike D.
    Been had a little horsy named Paul Revere
    Just me and my horsy and a quart of beer
    Riding across the land, kicking up sand
    Sheriff's posse on my tail cause I'm in demand
    One lonely Beastie I be
    All by myself without nobody
    The sun is beating down on my baseball hat
    The air is gettin' hot the beer is getting flat
    Lookin' for a girl I ran into a guy
    His name is M.C.A., I said, "Howdy" he said, "Hi"

    He told a little story that sounded well rehearsed
    Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst
    The brew was in my hand and he was on my tip
    His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry he asked me for a sip
    He said, "Can I get some?"
    I said, "You can't get none!"
    Had a chance to run
    He pulled out his shotgun
    He was quick on the draw I thought I'd be dead
    He put the gun to my head and this is what he said,

    "Now my name is M.C.A. I've got a license to kill
    I think you know what time it is it's time to get ill
    Now what do we have here an outlaw and his beer
    I run this land, you understand I make myself clear."
    We stepped into the wind he had a gun, I had a grin
    You think this story's over but it's ready to begin

    "Now I got the gun you got the brew
    You got two choices of what you can do
    It's not a tough decision as you can see
    I can blow you away or you can ride with me" I said, I'll ride with you if you can get me to the border
    The sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter
    I did it like this, I did it like that
    I did it with a whiffleball bat
    So I'm on the run the cop's got my gun
    And right about now it's time to have some fun
    The King Adrock that is my name
    And I know the fly spot where they got the champagne."
    We rode for six hours then we hit the spot
    The beat was a bumping and the girlies was hot
    This dude was staring like he knows who we are
    We took the empty spot next to him at the bar
    M.C.A. said, "Yo, you know this kid?"
    I said, "I didn't." but I know he did
    The kid said, "Get ready cause this ain't funny
    My name's Mike D. and I'm about to get money."
    Pulled out the jammy aimed it at the sky
    He yelled, "Stick 'em up!" and let two fly
    Hands went up and people hit the floor
    He wasted two kids that ran for the door
    "I'm Mike D. and I get respect
    Your cash and your jewelry is what I expect"
    M.C.A. was with it and he's my ace
    So I grabbed the piano player and I punched him in the face
    The piano player's out the music stopped
    His boy had beef and he got dropped
    Mike D. grabbed the money M.C.A. snatched the gold
    I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's cold.

    Brass Monkey, that funky Monkey
    Brass Monkey junkie, that funky Monkey

    Got this dance that's more than real
    Drink Brass Monkey, here's how you feel
    Put your left leg down, your right leg up
    Tilt your head back, let's finish the cup
    M.C.A. with the bottle, D rocks the can

    Adrock gets nice with Charlie Chan
    We're offered Moet, we don't mind Chivas
    Wherever we go with bring the Monkey with us
    Adrock drinks three, Mike D is D

    Double R foots the bill most definitely
    I drink Brass Monkey and I rock well
    I got a Castle in Brooklyn
    That's where I dwell

    Brass Monkey, that funky Monkey
    Brass Monkey junkie, that funky Monkey

    'Cause I drink it anytime and anyplace
    When it's time to get ill, I pour it on my face
    Monkey tastes Def when you pour it on ice
    Come on y'all, it's time to get nice

    Coolin' by the lockers, gettin' kind of funky
    Me and the crew, we're drinking Brass Monkey
    This girl walked by, she gave me the eye
    I reached in the locker, grabbed the Spanish Fly

    I put it with the Monkey, mixed it in the cup
    (From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/beastie-boys-lyrics/brass-monkey-lyrics.html)
    Went over to the girl, "Yo baby, what's up?"
    I offered her a sip, the girl she gave me lip
    It did begin, the stuff wore in and now she's on my tip

    Brass Monkey, that funky Monkey
    Brass Monkey junkie, that funky Monkey

    Step up to the bar, put the girl down
    She takes a big gulp and slaps it around
    Take a sip, you can do it, you get right to it
    We had a case in the place and we went right through it

    You got a dry Martini, thinking you're cool
    I'll take your place at the bar, I smack you off your stool
    I'll down a '40 dog in a single gulp
    And if you got beef you'll get beat to a pulp

    Hey Ladies. <3

    Hey ladies in the place I'm callin' out to ya
    There never was a city kid truer and bluer
    There's more to me than you'll ever know
    And I've got more hits than Sadaharu Oh
    Tom Thumb Tom Cushman or Tom Foolery
    Date women on T.V. with the help of Chuck Woolery
    Words are flowing out just like the Grand Canyon
    And I'm always out looking for a female companion
    I threw the lasso around the tallest one and dragged her to the crib
    I took off her moccasins and put on my bib
    I'm wheelin' and dealin' I make a little bit of stealing
    I'll bring you back to the place and your dress I'm feeling
    Your body's on time and your mind is appealing
    Staring at the cracks up there upon the ceiling
    Such and such be the bass that I'm throwing
    Talking to a girl telling her I'm all knowing
    She's talking to the kid
    I'm telling here every lie that you know that I never did

    Hey ladies! Get funky!

    Me in the corner with a good looking daughter
    I dropped my drawers and it was welcome back Kotter
    We were cutting up the rug she started cutting up the carpet
    In my apartment I begged her please stop it
    The gift of gab is the gift that I have
    And that girl ain't nothing but a crab
    Educated no stupid yes
    And when I say stupid I mean stupid fresh
    I'm not James at 15 or Chachi in charge
    I'm Adam and I'm adamant about living large
    With the white sassoons and the looks that kill
    Makin' love in the back of my Coupe De Ville
    I met a little cutie she was all hopped up on zootie
    I liked the little cutie but I kicked her in the bootie
    Cause I don't kinda go for that messin' around
    You be listening to my records' a number one sound
    Step to the rhythm step step to the ride
    I've got an open mind so why don't you all get inside
    Tune in tune on to my tune that's live
    Ladies flock like bees to a hive

    Hey ladies! Get funky!

    Hey, hey, hey, hey ladies!

    Hey, hey, hey, hey ladies!

    (one more time)
    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey ladies!

    She's got a gold tooth you know she's hardcore
    She'll show you a good time then she'll show you the door
    Break up with your girl it ended in tears
    Vincent Van Gogh and mail that ear
    I call her in the middle of the night when I'm drinking
    The phone booth on the corner is damp and it's stinking
    She said come on over it was me that she missed
    I threw that trash can through her window cause you know I got dissed
    Your old lady left you and you went girls (x3) insane
    You blew yourself up in the back of the 6 train
    Take my advice at any price a gorilla like your mother is mighty weak
    Sucking down pints 'til I didn't know
    Woke up in the morning at the Won Ton Ho
    Cause I announce I like girls that bounce
    With the weight that pays about a pound per ounce
    Girls with curls and big long locks
    And beatnik chicks just wearing their smocks
    Walking high and mighty like she's #1 and
    *She thinks she's the passionate one*

    Hey, ladies! Get funky!

    I appreciate how much they have grown as musicians & appear to have grown as people as well over the years & that they do it their own way & they're still doing it well after so long. One of the great bands.

    Plus that new video is awesome, everyone in Hollywood appears to be in it!

    Let me clear my throat :smokin:


    Coolin' on the corner on a hot summer day
    Just me, my posse and M.C.A.
    A lot of beer - a lot of girls - and a lot of cursing
    Twenty-two automatic on my person
    Got my hand in my pocket and my finger's on the trigger
    My posse's gettin' big - and my posse's gettin' bigger
    Some voices got treble - some voices got bass
    We got the kind of voices that are in your face




    I am a product of the 80's and Licensed to Ill is still my favorite.

    You wake up late for school man you don't wanna go,
    You ask your mom "please?" but she still says "NO!"
    You miss two classes and no homework
    but your teacher preaches class like you're some kind of jerk

    You gotta fight, for your right,
    to paaaaaaaaaarty

    Your pops caught you smokin' and he said "NO WAY!"
    That hypocrite smokes two packs a day!
    Man living at home is such a drag
    Now your mom threw away your best porno mag (Busted)

    You gotta fight, for your right,
    to paaaaaaaaaarty

    You gotta fight

    Don't step outta this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear!
    I'll kick you outta my home if you don't CUT THAT HAIR!!
    Your mom busted in and said "WHAT'S THAT NOISE!?"
    Aww, mom you're just jealous, it's the Beastie Boys!

    You gotta fight, for your right,
    to paaaaaaaaaarty

    You gotta fight, for your right,
    to paaaaaaaaaarty

    Paaaaaaaaaarty!

    Paaaaaaaaaarty!

    First...their new CD Hot Sauce Committee Part Two from what I have heard so far is a nice throwback.

    Second, I am now try to track down a decent version of The Scenario.
  • As my username suggests, the Beastie Boys are my entire life. They are the reason I am still alive, and the reason I learned to care about myself and respect myself. So in turn- a big part of me losing this weight too. I know it sounds cheesy, but their music is what keeps me going, my reason to get up in the morning and feel good about life.

    The new album is totally my new soundtrack to life!!
