[snip Fresh Prince lyrics]

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it a little odd (and
outrageously expensive) to take a cab from Philadelphia to Bel-Air?

Here's thelyrics to the original version, if anyone cares. :-)

-Kelley

Now this is a story, all about how
My life got flipped, turned upside down
I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there
I'll tell ya how i became the prince of a town called bel-air

In west philadelphia, born and raised
On the playground is where i spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school

When a couple of guys, that were up to no good
Startin' makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one, little fight and my mom got scared
And said, "you movin' with your auntie and uncle in bel-air"

I begged and pleaded with her, day after day
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket
I put my walkman on and said I might as well kick it

First class yo this is bad
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of Bel-Air livin like
Hmmm this might be all right

But wait I hear they're prissy bourgois and all that
Is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat
I don't think so I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air

Well uh the plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude looked like a cop standin' there with my name out
I ain't tryin' to get arrested yet I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightning disappeared

I whistled for a cab, and when it came near
The license plate said "fresh" and he had the dice in the mirror
If anything, i could say that this cat was rare
But i thought, "nah forget it," yo holmes, to bel-air

I, pulled, up to the house about 7 or 8
And i yelled to the cabbie, "yo holmes, smell ya later"
Looked at my kingdom, i was finally there
To sit on my throne, as the prince of bel-air

Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air
DJ Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince

Now this is the story all about how
my life got flipped, turned upside down
and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air

In West Philadelphia I'm born and raised
on a playground is where I've spent the most of my days
chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
and all shooting some b-ball outside of the school
when a couple of guys, they were up to no good
started making trouble in my neighbourhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
and said "you're moving with your aunty and uncle in Bel-Air"

I begged and pleaded with her day after day
but she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
she gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket

I put my walkman on and said I might as well kick it

First class, yo this is bad,
drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
if this's what the people of Bel-Air livin' like,
hmm this might be alright!

But wait, I hear they're prissy bourgois and all that,
Is this the type of place they can send this cool cat?
I don't think so, I'll see when I get there,
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel Air!

Well, ah, the plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude looked like a cop standing there with my name out
I ain't tryin' to get arrested yet, I just got here
Sprang with the quickness, like lightning disappeared.

I whistled for a cab and when it came near the
license plate said "Fresh" and had a dice in the mirror
if anything I could say that this cab was rare
but I thought nah forget it, go home to Bel-Air

I pulled up to the house about seven or eight
and I yelled to the cabby "Yo, homes, smell you later"
looked at my kingdom I was finally there
to sit my throne as the prince of Bel-Air
