[i´d like to send this one out to the partner
pepa mc, and her first born, whatever it may be]

yo, spin, once again help me get this crowd on its feet
so we can set it off
i´ve got your back, salt, you know i´m never soft
yo, where´s your records at?
right beside me
ready to give a scratch?
yep, like poison ivy

it´s the nineties, the year for change, can you prove it?
i made this beat, i´m an invincible, and i produced it
it´s in my soul to roll and flow, take control
sold the show, can go like a pogo stick
hot hit, dop, dip, rock, rip, don´t shop on my hit list
cuz i can be a witch if
they music is cool, and it can calm the savage beast
then we got plenty of beats for the beasts to eat
a party animal that´s livin´ rather large, in fact
take out the camera, salt, (why?) i wanna picture that
make sure it´s focused or you may only not have noticed
before i cut up a jam i yell a "hocus pocus"
and right before your eyes you´ll understand the name
musicans and magicians are usually the same
and the fame, proclaim, obtains, the stain will gain a rain
that pours, it soars my brain to yours
ordained by law to train the poor
i´ll make sure that there ain´t gonna be no more
it´s a treachery hidden up the sleeves of men
magic will only work for those who do believe in them

black magic, it´s black magic
do you believe in black magic?
it´s black magic
i believe in black magic
it´s black magic
do you believe in black magic?
it´s black magic
i believe in

we call this song "black magic" cuz it´s a fact
anything that´s tragic relates to black
coincidental? (no) here´s an example, jack
words as ancient as fossils or artifacts
black sunday or monday
black tongues or lungs may cause a black sleep
why say black sheep?
black sabbath is evil, black market illegal
a black widow is deadly, black potion ain´t healthy
see, some try to say dark-skinned men ain´t sexy true
darker the cherry, you know how sweet will be the juice
music´s the only thing that brings the dead right back to life
have faith and it will guide you through the night just like a light
never say salt steered you wrong inside a concert hall
my crystal ball can see the future, to the beat y´all

magic, it´s black magic
do you believe in magic?
it´s black magic
i believe in magic
it´s black magic
do you believe in magic?
it´s black magic
i believe in magic

and my feet in the street is black magic
and my soul in control is black magic
and the life that i live is black magic
anything that i give is black magic

it´s black magic
do you believe in magic?
it´s black magic
i believe in

in magic, a dimension of sight and sound
where people see in only shades of brown
and reality is the same as a fantasy
is this the way you want your world to be?
not me, i want variety in my society
where i can change if i don´t like what i see, you see
this is a woman speakin´ bringin´ door-to-door, seekin´
tranquilty, that abilty will keep on repeatin´
to saw someone in half may be a trick or treat
making them dance and laugh is somethin´ quite unique
abracadabra, salt´s comin´ at ya
you say my music was a phase, a fad, huh, i proved you wrong
over ten years and still goin´ strong
whoever heard of a fad kickin´ for so long?

magic, it´s black magic
do you believe in magic?
it´s black magic
i believe in magic
it´s black magic
do you believe in magic?
it´s black magic
i believe in black magic

and the life that i live is black magic
anything that i give is black magic
and my feet in the street is black magic
and my soul in control is black magic
(repeat)
