"In the deep and dark bowels of the underworld,
  order must be maintained.
  Without a strict and unforgiving chain of command,
  chaos is inevitable."
    [Ice Cube]
  Whassup youngsta?
  Since you the new booty, and don't know nothin,
  I got to show you bout the peckin order
  It's the order in how we do things and move things
  See, somebody gon' tell you what to do
  after I tell that motherfucker what to do
    It's the peckin order [echo]
  It's the peckin order [echo]
    We got the power to make you niggaz sour
  Big fish whale like Ichikowa, steppin out the shower
  It's the peckin order, ask ya daugther how we peck
  Inspect, high class ass to projects
  Push my Lex through the California rain, gutter lane
  Infamous schemes on the brain
  for my connect gang, put a strain on every link
  in our chain, that's right - we all get arraigned
  Takin sworn notes to makin c-notes
  Knowin all the while that bullshit floats and niggaz don't
  So nigga don't - gangsta paradise ain't nuttin nice
  Yeah we livin so trife we need Je-sus in our life
    [Chorus: Ice Cube, Mack 10]
    [Cube]
  It's the peckin order
  [Mack]
  It's the order how we do things
  and move things, only fuck with the true things
    [Ice Cube]
  Havin heavy intercourse with the world of depression
  Messin with the wrong bitches never learn our lesson
  Stressin, no guessin, never question
  Even when we playin, we testin, confession
  Do you still wanna meet where the killers eat?
  Held accountable for anythang you repeat
  It's the peckin order, ask your daughter how we peck
  When we smoke you, it's your best friend you suspect
    [Chorus]
    [Mack 10]
  Now c'mon, come on potnah, c'mon (it's the peckin order)
  Fuck that, I don't wanna hear none of that shit man
  All that cryin and beggin and shit
  To be honest wit you that shit really don't even
  affect me in no kind of way potnah
  You wastin your muthafuckin time (it's the peckin order)
  Let's get this shit goin, let's get it over with
  C'mon back here, back here
  I can't make no motherfuckin mess right here
  Check this out homie, make it easy on yourself
  I know you want a motherfuckin open casket
  where your peoples can see you and kiss on you
  but you gon' piss me off
  and I'ma blow noodles out your motherfuckin head
  and ain't none of that happenin after that
  So, c'mon back here, c'mon, right - c'mon, ay
  But you know, one more thing before I do this [BLAM!!]

  It's the peckin order [echo]
  It's the peckin order [echo]
