All Wrapped Up Lyrics - Singles - Grandmaster Flash

All wrapped up(x2) 

You're entangled in a great big ball of confusion 

Trapped in a world that is just an illusion 

You're thinking it's real but that's not what's happening 

Well,we're here to let you know the real deal 

(That's why we're rappin') 

(Yo)Life's just a game,one great big riddle 

And we're all wrapped up,smack dab in the middle 

Play the Lotto everyday in hopes you're gonna win it 

But it's just another game and you're wrapped up in it 

You haven't won it yet,but you ain't had enough 

'Cause you know it like a poet,you're (all wrapped up) 

All wrapped up(x2) 

We're gonna rap about the game that people are playin' 

(Yo)If you're ready,just listen to what I'm sayin' 

Talking about homeboys and the fly young ladies 

Men,woman,sons,daughters and the little-bitty babies 

Speaking on the def jams everybody's be-bopping 

Super stupid,cold chillin' and the party is rockin' 

Soap opera in the day got the ladies cold illin' 

"One life to live"(you know it) and " All my chillin'" 

You know you gotta have it,too much ain't enough 

Because the fact of the matter is you're all wrapped up 

All wrapped up (x2) 

Doctors wrapped up in the ill and the sick 

We got wrapped up in politics 

Some wrapped up in living long 

(And you're)All wrapped up in the beat of his song 

Gamblers wrapped up in making bets 

And the lovers wrapped up in this game called sex 

(Now trouble's)Out there and it won't ignore ya 

Don't look for any trouble,it'll surely look for ya 

If you try to play tough then it's just your luck 

That it'll call your bluff and then trouble's gotcha all wrapped up 

All wrapped up (x2) 

You're seen hanging on the corner nine days a week 

(You gonna blow)You don't know you're wrapped up in the streets 

Sporting 50-dollar sneakers and all the money's spent 

While Mom's (all wrapped up) Trying to pay rent 

We got the weekeng girls and all you fly guys 

Wrapped up in a world of 9-to-5 

We got the sly,slick and wicked,ain't it funny 

(Yo)How they're (all wrapped up) Cold trying to take money 

If you get it,you're with it,(If) You don't,that's tough 

And you know the real reason is you're 

(All wrapped up) 

All wrapped up (x4)
