"In the deep and dark bowels of the underworld
Order must be maintained
Without a strict and unforgiving chain [bad word] 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 [bad word] what to do

It's the peckin order (*echo*)
It's the peckin order (*echo*)

We got the power to make you niggas sour
Big fish whale like Ichikowa, steppin out the shower
It's the peckin order, ask ya daugther how we peck
Inspect, high class [bad word] 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 [bad word] floats and niggas don't
So [bad word] don't - gangsta paradise ain't nuttin nice
Yeah we livin so trife we need Je-sus in our life
 [bad word]  Ice Cube, Mack 10

[Cube] It's the peckin order
[Mack] It's the order how we do things
And move things, only [bad word] with the [bad word] things

[Ice Cube]
Havin heavy intercourse with the world of depression
Messin with the wrong [bad word] 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
 [bad word] 
[Mack 10]
Now [bad word] on potnah, c'mon (it's the peckin order) [bad word] that, I don't wanna hear none of that [bad word] man
All that cryin and beggin and [bad word] To be honest wit you that [bad word] really don't even
Affect me in no kind of way potnah
You wastin your [bad word] time (it's the peckin order)
Let's get this [bad word] goin, let's get it over with
C'mon back here, back here
I can't make no [bad word] mess right here
Check this out homie, make it easy on yourself
I know you want a [bad word] open casket
Where your peoples can see you and kiss on you
But you gon' [bad word] me off
And I'mma blow noodles out your [bad word] 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!!*}
