Lyrics

I shot- I shot- I shot- I shot- I shot the sheriff
Think while I sink, into the brain structure
Think while I sink

Chaos, the mass confusion, EPMD's in town
Total chaos, the mass confusion
Rhymes so hypnotiz- EPMD's in town. Don't- EPMD's in town
Just think while I sink, into the brain structure
(Don't sleep on the E) You see, somethin' might rupture
It don't take time for me to blow your mind
Now take a second to wreck it because you're dumb and blind
So just lounge, cause you're an MC clown
Go join the circus: EPMD's in town

Total chaos, the mass confusion
Rhymes so hypnotizing known to cause an illusion
Like a magician, he draws a rabbit out a hat, son
I draw 'em all like a .44 Magnum
MC, freeze: stop, look, and listen, and try to imagine
It's travellin' the speed of light, 
But everything's motion is frightening, plus the thought you alone
You now enter dimension called the Twilight Zone
You're terrified, plus you can't bear the thought
You and I one-on-one in the Land of the Lost
You fuckin' shiver, then you scream, my friend
You wake up Muttley because you're dreamin' again
But next time I'm on the scene, do not try to diss us
Keep your mouth shut: sucker, duck, because I'm Strictly Business

I-I-I shot the sheriff (Don't get too close because you might get shot)
I-I shot the sheriff (Don't get too close because you might get shot)
I shot the sheriff (Don't get too close because you might get shot)
I-I shot the sheriff (Don't get too close because you might get shot)

Don't get too close because you might get shot
Don't get too close because you might get shot
Don't get too close because you might get shot
Don't get too close because you might get shot

I shot the sheriff (Don't get too close because you might get shot)
I-I shot the sheriff (Don't get too close because you might get sho-)
