D#m F#
Boom!
D#m F#
Burn!
D#m F#
Bip! Yeah!
D#m F#
Pow! Hey, ha ha.
D#m F# D#m F#
Down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
D#m F# D#m F#
Are you down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
[Verse 1]
D#m C#
Pullin' out my big black book
D#m C#
Cause when I need a word defined that's where I look
D#m C#
So I move to the L's quick, fast, in a hurry
D#m C#
Threw on my specs, thought my vision was blurry
D#m C#
I looked again but to my dismay
D#m C#
It was black and white with no room for grey
D#m C#
Ya see, a big "V" stood beyond my word
D#m C#
And yo that's when it hit me, that luv is a verb
[Chorus 1]
D#m F#
Words come easy but don't mean much
D#m F#
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
D#m F#
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
D#m F#
And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]
G#
Hey, tell me haven't ya heard?
G#
Luv, is a serious word
B
Hey, I think it's time ya learned
D#m
I don't care what they say
C#
I don't care care what ya heard
G#
The word luv, luv is a verb
[Outro]
D#m F# D#m F#
Down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
D#m F# D#m F#
Are you down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
[Verse 2]
D#m C#
Thinkin' of a way to explain-o
D#m C#
Cause ya' know when I'm flowin' like a bottle of Drain-o
D#m C#
Simple and plain, L-O-V-G#
D#m C#
Ain't all that junk that ya see on TV
D#m C#
Put soaps on a rope cause they ain't worth copin' with
D#m C#
It's a myth that there ain't no hope and
D#m C#
Luv is enough if it's unconditionally
D#m C#
Givin' now you're living out the Great Commission
[Chorus 1]
D#m F#
Words come easy but don't mean much
D#m F#
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
D#m F#
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
D#m F#
And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]
G#
Hey, tell me haven't ya heard?
G#
Luv, is a serious word
B
Hey, I think it's time ya learned
D#m
I don't care what they say
C#
I don't care care what ya heard
G#
The word luv, luv is a verb
[Outro]
B C# G#
Down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
B C# G#
Are you down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
[Verse 3]
D#m F#
Back in the day there was a man
D#m F#
Who stepped out of Heaven and he walked the land
D#m F#
He delivered to the people an eternal choice
D#m F#
With a heart full of luv and the truth in His voice
D#m F#
Gave up His life so that we may live
D#m F#
How much more luv could the Son of God give?
D#m F#
Here is the example that we oughtta be matchin'
D#m F#
Cause luv is a word that requires some action
[Chorus 1]
D#m F#
Words come easy but don't mean much
D#m F#
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
D#m F#
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
D#m F#
And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]
G#
Hey, tell me haven't ya heard?
G#
Luv, is a serious word
