Вершы: New Edition. Where It All Started.

Picture this where it all started
Was back in Boston, Massachusett some time ago, believe that
And by reopening the doors to all youth
A little salt was thrown on me and my boys

You know what I'm sayin' but now we're back
Picking up where we left off
And through this song, process of elimination will be done
You better believe that

Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike
Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike

The beginning of a dream
Where our ideas were born
Tell 'em Ricky, to understand what this really means
Let's set the record straight once and for all and I'll tell you

'Cause other people imitate
And try their best to recreate
This is where it all started from
So they only perpetrate
But they can never duplicate
This is where it all started from

Yo, it's on you Ron, it's nice to be the original
That all the counterfeits like to bite off
We only take it as a compliment
When they copy some of our material

To stay the best among the rest
We work to keep our movements fresh
This is where it all started from, you listen up dap
Instead of being clones
Why don't you think of something on your own
This is where it all started from

Now there's one more thing we think you should know
Don't be a victim to the wanna be
This is where it all started from
A fake, a fake
'Cause no other's ever gonna be like us
This is where it all started from, take that

Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike
Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike
We're cool, cool it cool it now
Let's sweeten it up, candy girl
Count it off, one, two, one two
But you better not, better not

'Cause other people imitate
And try their best to recreate
This is where it all started from
So they only perpetrate
But they can never duplicate
This is where it all started from

To stay the best among the rest
We work to keep our movements fresh
This is where it all started from
You listen up dap instead of being clones
Why don't you think of something on your own
This is where it all started from

Yo wait a minute! Hold up! Wait! Stop! Huh!
You didn't know we was coming back
Like this on 'em, my brother
