We're on a mission 
Dissin' all of the opposition 
MCs  it's my butt you're kissin' 
Because I desire 

Yo  wait a minute  chill  I want ya all to hear 
Why rap is not a joke  for us it's a career 
Others try to imitate but none has come near 
So you see why everybody stands up and cheer 
And if you really think about it you know what it means 
To be a female rapper from the heart of Queens 
And see others dream about being supreme 
But once on the scene we start killing kings 
People claim we're too wild to tame 
On stage we behave like sizzlin' flame 
And oh, so cool when we rap you need a sweater 
The rhymes so tough you swear they're made of leather 
Get the best of your bunch, and I bet that we're better 
Tell 'em why, Pepa, tell 'em why - 'cause I desire 

DJs come and go just like the wind 
But mine is better than all of them 
She's sharper than a razor when it comes to a cut 
More lethal than a laser if you want to play rough 
Not the object of a show, subject to cut ???? 
????? tell you Spinderella's dope 

Call her Spin for short but she don't take ???? 
want to duel? You're a fool ???? 
Choppin' beats for these until the turntables bleed 
Scratches so damn hard you'd swear the mixer had fleas 
She's the mutilator, music carnivore 
Spinderella rocks the records with a chainsaw 
You're still amazed by the way she plays 
Not a fad but a phase of the hip-hop craze which I desire 

Salt from the Pepa and my name is Cher 
From Queens, New York not Delaware 
I like my steak well-done 'cause I hate it rare 
And I'm lovable and huggable like Yogi the Bear 

Pepa from the Salt so do not rip 
'Cause if you do I'll shift from first to fifth 
Lights out, it's heard, I thought you were dead 
Short, fading went I went upside your head 
So get back to the beat 'cause the beat is bad 
The beat pro and the bass gets much impact 
The beats rock and just because the beat kicks bass 
We're gonna bounce this beat all over the place 'cause I desire 

While you're on the set let the cameras roll 
Salt and Pepa are the stars, the world's the video 
Your room is boomin' when we're on your stereo 
So hold on tight, don't dare let go 
We're the teachers, you're the students - class is in session 

Pay attention boys and girls, and learn your lesson 
We're running things, yes, we're taking over 
You be the grass, we'll be the lawnmower 
Never fakin' or takin', not givin' no slack 
Not trying, succeeding 'cause it's like that 
Hot damn, how could you be so doggone dumb? 
Trying to dis Salt and Pepa when we're number one? 
But we excuse you 'cause you're dippy, your mind's in a daze 
Like every duck you're confused in so many ways 
Giving nothing, taking all whether big or small 

We got a ? beat and it's dope, def y'all 
Every day of the week you're at my beck and call 
You want to try me out? You don't have the gall 'cause I desire
