[Intro: DJ Premier scratches]
"Worldwide! Uh!"
"Time to handle our biz"
"Down with the crew called Diggin' In The Crates"
"Worldwide! Uh!"
"Time to handle our biz"
"Down with the crew called Diggin' In The Crates"

[Chorus: Uncredited female vocal]
Thick is how I got my whole clique to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know, this clique can't be touched
If your clique ain't thick, you ain't fuckin' with us

[Verse 1: A.G.]
We on a world tour with Midnight Mauraders and such
I'm at the table like The Godfather, smokin' a Dutch
Controllin' the buck,.I roll with enough
N***as that'll blow in the clutch, not only holdin', we bust
The phat raps, so pass that and let me hit it
Got me gassed, black, skins was mad phat, she flipped it
Bronx is equipped with n***as that'll rip shit
Studios get blown from D&D to Mystic
With this shit, I'll bomb the nation from a distance
The jewel: gotta have patience, plus persistence
We rock glass like Rockford
Waitin' for bottles to pop, in the condo, models get rocked
To sum up my career from bottom to top
Now we in the thick of it, and you don't stop!
[Chorus]
Thick is how I got my whole clique to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know, this clique can't be touched
If your clique ain't thick, you ain't fuckin' with us

[Verse 2: Big L]
Check it! I be puffin' blunts in the house, sexin' stunts on the couch
This year, a lot of frauds might get punched in their mouth
For when your wife see me, she don't know how to act
So don't be mad when I blow out her back, for real
Your whole team a bunch of poo-putts who made a few bucks
Date a few sluts, then y'all started runnin' y'all lips a little too much
My whole crew wild, slick as Nu Nile
We go to clubs, hit the bar, and trick two-thou'
Other MCs ain't got a chance at all
'Cause Big L Corleone is too advanced for y'all
Chicks can never walk away 'cause they like the sex
Flamboyant is the label that writes the checks
I'm a pimped-out n***a that walk with canes
Talk with slang, who ball from New York to Spain
Haters E-N-V-Y me, B-I-G
'Cause I'm V.I.P. 'til I D-I-E, what!

[Chorus: Female voice & (O.C.)]
Thick is how I got my whole clique to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know, this clique can't be touched
If your clique ain't thick, you ain't fuckin' with us
Thick is how I got my whole clique to sound (Yeah, yeah!)
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know, this clique can't be touched (D.I.T.C., n***a!)
If your clique ain't thick, you ain't fuckin' with us (What! What!)
[Verse 3: O.C.]
Yo! I spark light with the pen, drink O.J. with gin
Rock Timbs with my laces untied
Cruisin' the city on 17 inches, ride past wenches
Past the projects, thugs chillin' on the benches
Profile low as if I had an ill vengeance
Life on Earth is just a death sentence
Fuck it! Alpha, omega, Arm-Leg-a-Leg-a-Arm
With cold steel if you pose a threat to my nasia
D-I-double-G-I-N
I-N T-H-E Crates lock shit, times ten
Dive in! Become a part of a cliché, the art of a expert
Your honor from New York to Florida
Chicks rush through corridors, n***as try to star with us
Besides rollin' thick, my whole crew be marvelous

[Chorus: Uncredited female vocal]
Thick is how I got my whole clique to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know, this clique can't be touched
If your clique ain't thick, you ain't fuckin' with us
Thick is how I got my whole clique to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know, this clique can't be touched
If your clique ain't thick, you ain't fuckin' with us
[Outro: DJ Premier scratches]
"Worldwide! Uh!"

"Down with the crew called Diggin' In The Crates"
"Worldwide! Uh!"
"Time to handle our biz"
"Down with the crew called Diggin' In The Crates"
"Worldwide! Uh!"
