The Hip Hop Nutcracker

Oh, hey, y'all, it's New Year's Eve in New York City.

This is a story of a family who needs a little help,

like we all do sometimes.

Mom and Pop just can't seem to get along. And Maria-Clara wishes they'd work it out

and light up the dance floor like they used to back in the day.

As the community turns out to celebrate,

can some holiday magic bring her parents back together?

Hey, let's get this thing in motion Block so hot got me full of emotion

Everybody's on the street

Feel the energy From your head to your feet

So crispy, fresh faded Holiday's topnotch, upgraded

Turn up for New Year's Eve

Everybody getting ready It's time to party

It's my block, I started this function

Back in the day Where Hip-Hop was pumping

And I don't say this casually I love these folks like family

And lemme tell you About ones I watch over

Here's an introduction To take a look closer

Maria-Clara, she's the talk of the town

Loves her parents But they're bringing her down

Whatever happened To that night in the club

When they first saw each other And they fell in love?

At the classic toy maker

Drosselmeyer time breaker

She's got the vision And she's making the plan

Always got a little bit of magic at hand

Old New It's something like the fusion of the two

Tradition with a twist Modern music don't miss...

...It's finally time Here's your last heads-up

We got the power Light this whole place up!

Let's go!

Time...

T... t... time is just... T... t... time is just...

Time is just another game to play.

Come on!

Yo, it's me again, your man on the block

I've known all these kids Since they started to walk

Let me talk a second, now, listen to me

Got good intuition About the things that I see

Did you catch Maria-Clara And The Nutcracker man?

Their chemistry is cracking And I think I'm a fan

But just about the time Love was sprouting up

This fool went and left To go sell some nuts

-Hey, you're gonna miss out Miss out

Don't let the girl get away It's a handout

She has a New Year's wish That I heard about

To get her mom and dad To work it all out...

Yeah!

...So that tonight, if things go right

-Her parents will kiss by midnight Midnight

So, go help them find a spark Might just help your spark to start

I'm Cool Peep, so I'll watch your cart Hurry up

before the love departs, go!

Snowflakes

Snowflakes

Throw your hands up, throw your hands up

If you're back in time Throw your hands up

Throw your hands up, throw your hands up

If you're back in time Throw your hands up

Another New Year's Eve And I'm feeling terrific

Back in the day, yeah, non-specific

Where love first bloomed When the vibes were right

I mingle but I tingle too Two hearts, so bright

But let's not jump the gun 'Cause the night is still so young

So grab a partner, feel the beat And both get locked in the song

See, I am your MC And I'd like to say what's good

Drosselmeyer's spinnin' records But she's also spinning time

She got the flow while I got the rhymes

Keeps your eyes open And your fists bumpin'

There's magic on the dance floor

So keep the rhythm bumpin' And your feet jumpin'

To find what you're looking for

Put your hands up It's time to take it back

Let's dance, DJ, spin that track

The correct spelling of sweet is S-W-E-E-T.
