This is the first song ever made by TMA. It was written in April, 1993, as an advertisement for Tom Johnston's One Great Day of Sharing at Crown College, a day of street-evangelism.
Dan Griffiths baught a Rap-Master keyboard from Radio Shack, and this song was originally created from "DEMO #1". Well, the song has progressed a lot since then!!! It comes complete with a Wierd Al sample saying "You know I'm Fat..Fat..Fat.." from the "Even Worse" album, and a sample from Run-DMC saying "Jump Jump" from the "Down with the King" ablum.
Chorus:
Are you Fat - Is what we need to ask (then say it again...)
Faithful, Available and Teachable (then say it again...)
Lyrics:
verse 1:
there is a day, a day that we can start sharing
and it is a day, a day for us to do some caring
be out looking hard yeah, for all the lost people
and bring them all back yes , to Gods' big steeple
cause it's Jesus.. (who?).. it's Jesus that will save them
yes it's Jesus.. (who?).. it's Jesus that will save them
verse 2:
it's nytro on tha' mic once again (once again)
rippin' tracks for God so let's begin
my rhymes are clear and I can see thru' the fog
I ain't got no tale like Snoop Doggy Dog
Jesus Christ has been in my heart since I wuz first grader
it's m.c. nytro and the d.j. on the crossfader
bring it back, bring it back, let me ride the track,
cause I'm livin for Christ, and I know He's comin back
so what cha' gonna' do what cha' gonna do wit' that
will ya live in sin?... or yo....
verse 3:
I'm the DJ, the disk jockey, so don't rock me.
I'm praising my Lord and my king, so don't mock me.
I'm flippin and I'm tippin and I'm rippin the scene,
Fattened on the fat tip, the lyrics clean.
The beat's, they make you jump, jumpity jump out of your seat.
So come on, stand up, Jump Jump to your feet!
Now check your back, as I'm attackin' with this lyrical flava
Not mine, not yours, but flava from my Savior.
Fattness, a state of mind, lifting up that greater mind
The Fattest Son Of Man, not the one you see on prime time...
Troubled by the dreams, of what you used to do?
Tormented day and night, find your way, here's a clue.
Hit the problem in the middle, it's so clear, not a riddle
Fix it up, clean your heart, stop the problem from the start
Come down, there it is, do your part, do your part
Let that sin stop; release it from your heart!
Here it is, there it is, now this is where it's at
Drop it, pop it, stop it, I want to know, Are You FAT???
