lyrics
The Lingo
A good guy’s the baby face and the villain is the heel
And if I smartened you up that means you know the deal
When you shooting that means keeping it real with no script
The match is a dance, the mic is the stick
when you hit the mat is a Bump,
A mark is a chump, you over, you do anything you want
The story is an angle, the dress the gimmick
Keeping Kayfabe is pretending that you live it
5 Star match means not much can top it
If you messed a move up, then that means you botched it
Color means blood, an X means help
Showing off is going into business for yourself
When its real its a shoot - and you telling you telling the truth
When you over, the crowd loves everything you do
The house is the number of fans that showed up
If you get tired in the ring, that means you blown up
If you’re a draw that means you got fans
If you a shooter than means you got hands
You get the push, then that means they got plans
Opposite of that is a burial, understand?
Heat is any response from the crowd
whether boo or cheer, it don’t matter if it’s loud
If you got the book you;’re the leader
The big guy is the heater
when you neither good nor bad that makes you a Tweener
The booker is the boss
A short one is a squash
A match ending in chaos is called a schmozz
When you gotta take that L it’s called do a job
and when the crowd gets loud, they call that a pop
a Dark match means no shine
and if I;m giving you the rub that’s referring to a cosign
Now you know all the wrestling terms
Which is cool., but Ill give ya one more lesson to learn
Whether you watch it, as a fan or in the closet
> Enjoy the Product, watch em and Astonish.
It’s okay to acknowledge but, do yourself a solid
Never use these in front of wrestlers, you got it?
Hope that helped, send this song to a friend,
With the pin for the win
Curtain call thats that end,
A good guy’s the baby face and the villain is the heel
And if I smartened you up that means you know the deal
When you shooting that means keeping it real with no script
The match is a dance, the mic is the stick
when you hit the mat is a Bump,
A mark is a chump, you over, you do anything you want
The story is an angle, the dress the gimmick
Keeping Kayfabe is pretending that you live it
5 Star match means not much can top it
If you messed a move up, then that means you botched it
Color means blood, an X means help
Showing off is going into business for yourself
When its real its a shoot - and you telling you telling the truth
When you over, the crowd loves everything you do
