Rucka Rucka ALI Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴Oh, herro please.
You can call me dj Not Nice.
I run a dry-cleaning service in Detroit.
You want black belt?
$10 cash.
No ticket, no laundry.
Here we go.
(Ching Chang Chong x8 during this)
Oh Yeah.
I smack a b***h if I have to tell her twice
Here we go everybody
Help me sing this song.
Rucka Rucka Ali
Number one in usa

I talk like ching chang chong
You walk into my store
I say "Hurry up and buy"
This is America
They call me Jackie Chan
I come here from Japan
I talk like ching chang chong
Welcome, sing my song
I got that how you cow
I give you eggroll now,
Don't care if you want steak
I give you by mistake
You want some wonton soup?
I gove you eggdrop, oops
I talk like ching chang chong
Don't f*** with Viet Cong
With my ninja supplies
I catch you by surprise
I throw my ninja dagger,
Hit you between the eyes
I cook my black-eyed peas
While the black guy pees
Please wear a black tie, please
I tell the black guy peace.
I use my Kung-Fu grip
To slap your bitches' t***
My people come to your village
And tear your heart to bits
I teach you Ti Kwan Do
You come to my condo
I cook up crack you smoke
You think I be some joke
If you think I'm Chinese
I be like "Ninja please"
My people come from China,
But we not from Beijing
We won Olympic games
Because you wimps can't play
My people wear diapers,
No time for bathroom break

[Chorus:]
Ninjas in the place
Do the Ching Chang Chong
Throw your nunchucks in the air
Rucka likes sideways vaginas

Call me dj not nice
I eat no food but rice
Ancient Korean recipe
I get from Jesus Christ
Have you Achieved the Zen?
I give you 2 for 10
We drink 2 Heineken
I be your Chinese friend
You b*****s grind on me
But not if you Taiwanese
I make you b*****s cry
With cream of some young guy
I eat my ramen cup
Where did my mom end up
I left her in Tokyo
Those Filipino s***s
I don't like Kim Jung Il
He try to get me kill
He fire blank missiles
All up close in my grill
Wait who just bombed Detroit
The city's been destroyed
It was the Japanese
Herro, remember me?

Motherf***ers in this b***h
Do the ching chang chong
Yeah

(Ching chang chong x16 during this)
It would be great honor to enter every v****a in this party.
I have disgraced my father for every v****a I have not entered...
By force.
Open sesame... Seed chicken.
Crowded elevator smell different to midget... Confucius say.

You ever see Ninja Turtle movie?
I was the third... Clansman.
