They finally did it (what's that?) They stole the mic I grip   Now that it's gone (what's wrong?) I'm feelin' tired and sick   (How did they do it?) I don't know I wasn't sleepin' that long   When I woke up (what happened brother?)    My microphone was gone   At first i panicked (how?) I put the cops on the case   But they were stuck (damm?) Without a clue or a trace   So sure as smokin' cigarettes is bad for your health   If I want my microphone back I'll find it myself   So I picked up the phone (for what?)    I called Dizzy   Dizzy: what's up?    My mic is gone   Dizzy: Word?    Let's get busy   Before I could tell Dizzy What I wanted to do   He was over at my house with the TMS crew   He said   Dizzy: Word is out in every mouth   In the street now that your mic is gone   It's not long yill your beatAnd then it hit me (Damm)    I got a battle at six   Without my microphone I'm guaranteed to get whipped   U might think it's unbelivable But word to the strenght   when it comes to rockin' rhymes I'm a musical nymph   They gave me other mics But yo it wasn't no use   I tried to rock One two one two   But I couldn't get loose I said forget it   My microphone or not I gotta do it   Give it all that I go (What if u loose?) It be the first time I lost   But if I beat 'em I'll finally prove I'm the boss   I grabbed my leather jacket Walked through the streets   Suckers was hopin' and preyin Strictly Dope would get beat   I begin to get hyped I was ready to fight   Yo I was confident that I'd win   To hell with the mic   I hopped up to the stage Dizzy started the beat   suckers shivered cause he Tasted defeat   Then I signaled to Dizzy Bust a rhyme off my head   Perpetrator fell back (Huh?) And then he was dead   I was happy as hell Cause I was lucky that nite   Put my hand in my pocket And there was my mic   THE CASE OF THE MISPLACED MIC   STRICTLY DOPE IN THE HOUSE
