went down to the disco, but was stopped at the door
then the bouncer told me, im not welcome anymore
i resorted to violence, then was thrown to the ground
that's when i grew tired of being pushed around

then one day, i met a man
with glowing eyes, and iron hands
he told me, to take it slow

chorus:
slow karate doesnt go that fast
bring your taekwando, i'll kick your ass
i'll paint your face black and blue, just like bob ross would do
only slow like im stoned, late at night coming home
sensei chunk taught me so, and his dojo is my home
even (mr.) miagi says so

dropped down to the dojo, with the nunchuck-a-roos, a brand new kimono, and a pair of ninja shoes

chorus

i smoke a pound a day so my karate stays slow with all my thugs
blastin 40's cappin on the 5.0 got skirts in the back six switches in the front, 20 inch gold rims with my jammy in the trunk, im a numbah one slow karate fien, tricked out OG with a gangsta lean, even when they rollin deep and im about to get jumped, i dont let my slow karate speed up

oaktown, keep your karate slow
LA, keep your karate slow
dirty south, keep your karate slow
east bay, keep your karate slow

chorus
