[Verse 2] The king of crowd rockers finally is back My voice is your choice as the hottest wax True as a wizard, just a blizzard, who ain't taken no crap I'm rhymin' and designin' with your girl in my lap The bass is kickin' always stickin' 'cause you like it that way You think it's fresh and plus it's def because it's by Cool J Cut Creator on the fader, my right-hand man We rock the bells so very well 'cause that's the name of this jam [Refrain] Rock the bells! [Verse 3] Some girls will like this jam and some girls won't 'Cause I make a lot of money and your boyfriend don't LL went to Hell, gonna rock the bells All you washed up rappers wanna do this well [Refrain] Rock the bells! [Verse 4] Now I'm world-wide known, whether you like it or not My one man band is Cut Creator, a.k.a. Philpot He'll never skip it, only rip it when he's on the fader What's my DJ's name? (Cut Creator!) Now you know, at my show, who’s on the wheels He'll drive the cross fader like a cut mobile So precise with a slice that you know he's greater What's my DJ's name? (Cut Creator!) Now you know, what do you know, Earl rolls the weed I go to the store and get Old Gold So all you crabby lookin' nappy headed girls get back 'Cause there's a ten-to-one chance that you might get smacked [Refrain] Rock the bells! [Verse 5] The bells are circulatin' like the blood in your veins Why are girlies on the tip? (LL's your name!) Cut Creator's good, Cool J is good-good You bring the wood pecker, I'll bring the wood The bells are whippin' and rippin' at your body and soul Why do you like Cool J? (It ain't rock 'n' roll!) 'Cause it ain't the glory days with Bruce Springsteen I'm not a virgin so I know I'll make Madonna scream You hated Michael and Prince all the way, ever since If their beats were made of meat, then they would have to be mince [Refrain] Rock the bells! [Verse 6] So listen to the rhymes align the rhyme on time He'll cut the record in a second, make your DJ look blind So all you Jheri Curl suckers wearin' high-heel boots Like ballerinas, what I mean is you're a fruit-loop troop All you gonna-be, wanna-be, when will you learn? Wanna be like Cool J, you gotta wait your turn Some suckers don't like me, but I'm not concerned Six G's for twenty minutes is the pay I earn I'm growin' and glowin' like a forest blaze Do you like Michael Jackson? (We like Cool J!) That's right, I'm on the mic with the help of the bells There's no delayin' what I'm sayin' as I'm rockin' you well [Refrain] Rock the bells!
