[Verse 1: Classified]

            C                                           G
My, my, my, my dad says they don't make music like they use to
A                                           G
And nowadays there ain't no record store to root through
C                                  G
We upload and then we viewin it on YouTube
A                                    G
Digital to Bluetooth, I see why that confuse you
C                                        G
This day and age, shit it's hard to tell who's who
A                                      G
So many artists, every week you hear a new group
C                                 G
Maybe it's me or possibly I got a screw loose
A                                                 G
A raisin short of two scoops but we don't do what you do (do, do)

[Verse 2: Mic Boyd]

C                                       G
Now-now-now-nowadays when I turn on the radio (yeah)
A                                         G
It's like they take the same old song and play it out (true)
C                                           G
Might be your favorite now but hate it in a day or so
A                                         G
Here today, gone tomorrow, that's how the saying goes
C                            G
The oldies were timeless and classic (that's right)
A                       G
Music now is models and actress (ah naw)
C                       G
Who we pay to ogle they asses (yeah)
A                                        G
Never liked metal but still prefer it to plastic

[Chorus: Classified (Mic Boyd) - w/ ad libs]

C                                           G
My dad says they don't make music like they use to
A                                 G
(Oh no they don't, no they don't, no they don't)
C                                                G
And my crew says they don't make beats like they use to
A                                 G
(Oh no they don't, no they don't, no they don't)
C                                                     G
You know what I-I think? It's just the music that I'm use to
A                                    G
(It's what I'm use to, it's what I'm use to)
C                            G       A                               G
I need my headphones louder, louder, louder, louder, louder, louder, louder,

[Verse 3: Mic Boyd]

C                                                  G
Drum machines with touch screens, this must be the future
A                            G
One man band all recorded on computer
C                              G
Cubase, Cakewalk and Pro Tools users
A                                  G
Filtered effects and overused Auto-Tuners
C
(If you can't hit the note), then hit a switch
G             A                                                        G
Artists can't get the pitch and end up [Auto-Tune voice] "singing like this"
C                                G
Sounds like robots are takin our jobs
            A                                    G
While these same record labels keep on payin 'em off


[Verse 4: Classified]

C                                                       G
Now have you ever thought about the old records we were proud to play (yeah)
A                                        G
And if you heard them for the first time nowadays? (yeah)
C                                  G
Would we give the same props, same amount of praise? (nope)
A                                         G
I highly doubt it eh, it'd probably sound out of date (yeah)
C                              G
Or maybe life nowadays kind of cloud our taste (yeah)
A                                   G
And hearin old tracks takes us back around the way (woo)
C                                 G
Yeah, still soundin great, off to outer space
A                                     G
Without a trace, leavin eardrums bent out of shape
