Lyrics
Yes, this is Miss Renee King from Philadelphia. I want you to give me a call on area code 215-222-4209 and I'm calling in reference to the music business. Thank you.
Hey how ya doin'
Sorry ya can't get through
Why don't you leave your name and your number
And I'll get back to you
Hey how are ya doin'
Sorry ya can't get through
But leave your name and your number
And I'll, get back to you
Once again it's another rap bandit
Fiending at I and I can't stand it
Wanna be down with the Day-Glo
Knocking on my door, saying, "a yo yo"
Knocking on my door, saying, "a yo yo"
I got a funky new tune with a fly banjo
I can't understand what the problem is
I find it hard enough dealin’ with my own biz
How'd they get my name and number?
Then I stop to think and wonder
Bout a plan, “yo man I gotta step out town
You wanna call me up? Take my number down
It's 222-2222
I gotta answering machine that can talk to you
It goes”
Hey how ya doin'
Sorry ya can't get through
But leave your name and your number
And I'll get back to you
Yo, check it, exit the old style, enters the new
But nothing's new 'bout being hawked by a crew
Or should I say flock cause around every block
There's Harry, Dick, and Tom, with a demo in his palm
Now I'm with helping those who want to help themselves
And flaunt a nut that's doggy as in dope
But it's not the mood to hear
The tales of limousines and pails
Of money they'll make like a pro
I be like, "Yo black, just play me the tape"
But at the show the time to spare I just make
But the songs created in they shacks
Are so wick-wick-wack, situations like this
And now I hate they give me smiles Kool-Aid wide and ask
"was it def?"
And with the straightest face I be like, "hell yes."
I slip them the digits to Papa Prince Paul
So I don't go AWOL but yet I know when they call they get
Hey how ya doin'
Sorry ya can't get through
Why don't you leave your name and your number
And I'll get back to you
Hey how are you doing
Sorry ya can't get through
Why don’t you leave your name and your number
And I'll get back to you
Party at the dug-out on Diction Ave
Haven't been to the jam in quite a while
Figure I'll catch up on the latest styles
'Stead piles and piles of demo tapes by the miles
All I wanna do is cut on the decks wild
But edition up here by the miles to the center
Reliever of duty, Plug One moseys in
And I be like, "Yo G, Pos does all the producing"
Now woe is me to the third degree
Mase pulls the funny so I make like a bunny, jettin'
But I'm getting used to this demo abuse
Getting raped and giving birth to a tape
Cause there's no escape from the clutches of a hawker
Attached to my success, sent like a stalker
Make way to my radius playin' fly guy
Try to get on my back they force like Luke Sky
Me, Myself, and I go through this act daily
And rarely do I not
No matter how I dodge some jackal always nails me
No matter what the plot
And even out on tour they be like
"Yo, I got a tape to play you back at the hotel"
I be like, "oh swell"
Unveil the numeric code to dial my room
And tell them to call me at noon
But of course there's no answering machine in my room
But a pretty young adorer who I swung on tour
And if it rings while we're alone she'll answer the phone
And with the quickness she'll recite like a poem
"Hey, you done did the right thing, dial up my ring ring
Now you're waiting on the beep
Say, I would love if you'd sing
The tune to Tru instead of fronting on the speak."
So no problemo, just play ya demo and at the end it's break out time
Please oh please don't press rewind cause I'll just lay it down the line
Hey how ya doin'
Sorry ya can't get through
Why don't you leave your name and your number
And I'll get back to you
Hey how ya doin'
Sorry ya can't get through
Why don’t you leave your name and your number
And we’ll get back to you, peace.
'Yo what's up man, this is Ronald Master down with the Fish Tank
Posse, man, you know man, so you know you can just hook
Me up, True. You know we got this fly new jam called 'Swimming In the
Fish Tank', you know we gonna rock it man, you know
What I'm saying, but I just need your help, Prince Paul gave me your
Number, you know man, you just gotta do that for me
Got this fly bassline, got these fly trombones in it man, so just hook
Me up, man, just look out, all right, call me back
At 557-2223 all right man, just look out, all right, look out for a
Brother man!'

There is so much imagery that has flickered in my mind for so many years watching vids as a kid until I watched this again a few years ago and realized where it was coming from. Such simple visual setups yet paired with the memorizing beat, it makes this a video that's whole equal so much more than the parts. It is brilliant after all of these years. Thank you for shouting out the director.

"So no problemo. Just play your demo and after the end it's breakout time. Please oh please don't press rewind because I will lay it down the line." Classic hip-hop.
I was a white kid who grew up listening to rock-VH, Bon Jovi, Crue. My older bro had 3 ft High in like 88-89 and I listened to it all summer of 89. I fell in love with hip hop and rnb. By 91-when this came out, hip hop was soundtrack to my life and Dela was one my fav groups. This is from 2nd album-just as good as 3ft high. This was lead single. Funny but sad story is when this came out, I was about 13. We used to hang out with these hot older chicks who were like 16. I knew they liked me but I’m sure they we reluctant to hook up with a 13 year old (I was very good looking growing up from what people would say) plus they had older bfs. Anyway, I’m out front of her apartment with one the older girls and her older cousin where she lived with her mom. Her older cousin heard me singing this song to myself and he’s like “how do you know that song?”. I’m like, I love Dela. And we had a good laugh. Anyway, that girl has been gone now for several years-I believe she had addiction issues. Crazy how music can bring you immediately back to a time many years ago. RIP PLUG 3 and Nicole L
such a classic, but on MTV they played the Party Mix with the Sax on it, good times, RIP David !!
so glad these songs are being digitised and posted now, perfect easy listening.
When this song came out...Everybody was using it on their answering machine...🤣
Wow, das ist verdammt lange her. Ich war damals 18 Jahre alt ,als wir in Berlin zu De La Soul abtanzten ✌😎
One of the best and catchiest songs of all times nyc was popping
My Best De La Soul number ever❤
Just happy i grew up in this era❤
Im in tears of joy. Can't believe my eyes and ears. 🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Early 90s MTV Europe played this song constantly. 👍
Love to Dove and Love to De La - and Love to the Fans, old and new, alike! (Who else has Dove's greeting on their voicemail? Lol)
Brilliant classic early 90s hip hop chill out grooves by the legendary Del La Soul Ring Ring Ring
I got a funky new tune with a fly banjo🌼🌼🌼
91 was the best year of music ever!
La quintessence du hip-hop résumée en une chanson.
My favourite sample of 'Help Is On The Way' by The Whatnauts, an exceptional bass line.
been bringing out my De la soul recently. First class! The Golden age...
I was already a big De La Soul fan in high school, but man was i stoked when this song was featured on the SPIN Magazine sampler cassette in fall '91. Totally showing my age here .. 😅😅
love yall thanks for the real music and great times in history
When this song came out it was like a whole new De la soul from the first album. I loved the De La Soul is Dead album. This song and that album made me a de La Soul fan
This debut when I was about to graduate high school 🔥🔥🔥🔥
How I missed this sound
Dave may you Rip brother. You hit this one man . Left us to soon. .😢😢😢

God I was so eager for the first new tune to come out after 3 ft high. Got it the day it came out and I knew immediately the new album would not dissapoint. The videoclip also looks way better than the usual clips from that time. Also god I love the vinyl crackle of the samples. De La Soul you have a special place in my heart forever ❤
Punaise j'avais 18 ans ! Le kiff à cette époque. J'adorais ce titre 😊
they're sophomore "Dead" album was just as Refreshing as their debut Geniuses always reinvent and these 3 are still thriving; even in Dave's death- Rest in Power, TrugoY

After all these years, it's time for De La to call Miss Renee King back 😃
De LA Soul's sophomore album De LA Soul is Dead is a timeless classic hip-hop album
