"DJ JAZZY JEFF AARON"

A COMPLETE AND UTTER FABRICATION, BASED ON A TRUE STORY

TO THE TUNE OF THE THEME RAP TO THE NBC PRIME TIME SITCOM "THE FRESH PRINCE OF BEL AIR"


Now this is a story all about
How my life got flipped turned inside out
Now I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there, an'
I'll tell you why they call me DJ Jazzy Jeff Aaron

In uptown Toronto I was born and raised
But in high school's where I spent most of my days
I went to school, went to class, went home, and did work
I was acting really shy, like some kinda jerk

When a couple o' guys, they were up to no good
Lent me a copy of Boyz 'n' the Hood
I watched it one little time and my mom had fear
She said "don't you play music like that around here!"

So I started buying music:  rock, funk, soul, and pop
Techno, rap, reggae, downtown, and hip hop
I couldn't play it at home, so I played it at school
In the halls, in the classrooms, and even the pool

Now all the best parties have to have me there
To keep the jam kickin';  keep the tunes in the air
So with pride and with joy, I could finally say
That I made it on my own as the school's DJ
