No sleep till Brooklyn
Got limos, arenas, TV shows
We got a safe in the trunk with money in a stack
No sleep till
With dice in the front and Brooklyn's in the back
No sleep till Brooklyn
Our manager's crazy, he always smokes dust
Four on the floor, Adrock's out the door
No sleep till Brooklyn
No sleep till Brooklyn
No sleep till Brooklyn
Beastie Boys always on vacation
No sleep till Brooklyn
'Cause I'll be rocking this party eight days a week
Autograph pictures and classy hos
They all me Adam Yauch but I'm M.C.A.
We're thrashing hotels like it's going out of style
Plane to hotel, girls on the jock
Ain't seen the light since we started this band
Getting paid along the way 'cause it's worth your while
Tour around the world, you rock around the clock
Step off homes, get out of my way
My job ain't a job, it's a damn good time
The Beastie Boys at the Garden, cold kickin' it live
Waking up but I get to sleep
City to city, I'm running my rhymes
M.C.A.'s in the back 'cause he's skeezin' with a whore
No sleep till Brooklyn
While you're at the job working nine to five
No sleep till Brooklyn
He's got his own room at the back of the bus
Foot on the pedal, never ever false metal
Born and bred Brooklyn in the U.S.A.
On location, touring around the nation
Another girl, another fight, another drive all night
M.C.A., get on the mic my man
Going coast to coast, watching all the girlies shaking
I sip the def ale with all the fly women
Like a lemon to a lime, a lime to a lemon
No sleep till
I do what I do best because I'm illing and able
Itchy trigger finger but a stable turntable
No sleep till
Ain't no faking, your money I'm taking
No sleep till Brooklyn
No sleep till Brooklyn
Another place, another train, another bottle in the brain
No sleep till Brooklyn
Engine running hotter than a boiling kettle
Taxing little girlies form here to L.A.
