No-one in the world knows the lyrics to the fresh price theme.

NOXIGAR: Now this here's 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 you how I became the Prince of a towne called Bel Air

Transcript

{Open to the two}

NOXIGAR: In West Philadelphia, born and raised,

On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool and
Shootin' some B-ball outside after school
When a couple of guys, who were up to no good,
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared

She said "You're moving with your Auntie and Uncle in Bel Air!"

QUINT: Who am I!?!

HENRY: The queen. The queen...OF ENGLAND!

NOXIGAR: 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 live like?

Hmm... this might be alright!

QUINT: I think you expected that to be like some weird thing to say, but England has a queen. She's like, 14 years old too.

HENRY: Does she she she squeeze gats?

QUINT: Until the clip es vacío.

HENRY: We be straight up trippin, gangsta rapper! Hoo dat krazy boy, livin in a krazy void?

NOXIGAR: But, wait! I hear they're prissy, bourgeois, and all that

Is this the type of place 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!

{Short pause}

QUINT: I'd be very comfortable if you never spoke to me again.

NOXIGAR: Well, the plane landed and when I came out,

There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out
I ain't trying 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 there was dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare

But I thought, "Nah, forget it - Yo, homes! To Bel Air!

HENRY: Too bad, Quinty boy! Today is opposite day, so you're comfortable with me ALWAYS SPEAKING TO YOU FOR THE REST OF TIIIIME!

QUINT: oh noo

{End}

NOXIGAR: I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8

And I yelled to the cabbie "Yo, homes! Smell ya later!"
I looked at my kingdom; I was finally there!

To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air!
