[Intro: Ol' Dirty Bastard]
Keepin' it real, son
The shining star
You're my shining star, girl

[Verse 1: Ol' Dirty Bastard]
Yo, New York in the house
Is Brooklyn in the house
Uptown in the house
Shaolin, are you in the house
Boogie Down, are you in the house
Sacramento in the house
Atlanta Georgia, are you in the house
West Coast, are you in the house
Japan, are you in the house
Everybody, are you in the house
Baby, baby, come on
Baby, come on, baby, come on

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
When you walk by every night
Talking sweet and looking fine
I get kind of hectic inside
Baby, I'm so into you
Darling, if you only knew
All the things that flow through my mind
But it's just a sweet sweet
