The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air lyrics

Now, this is a 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 born and raised

On the playground was 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 who were up to no good

Startin' making trouble in my neighborhood

I got in one little fight and my Mom got scared

And said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'

I begged and pleaded with her day after day

But she packed my suitcase and send 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 living like?

Hmm, this might be alright

But wait, I hear they're prissy, bourgeois 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, 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 it had dice in the mirror

If anything I can say that this cab was rare

But I thought 'Nah, forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air'

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
