Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
You're nothing but a dirty, dirty old man
You do your thinking with a one track mind
Keep talkin' about heaven glory but
On your face is a different story
Clean up your rap your story's getting dusty
Wash out your mouth
Your lies are getting rusty
Can't believe nothing you say
'Cause I'm around and I see what you do
You know you're funkIER THAN a mosquito's tweeter
You gotta mouth like a herd of boll weevils
Same old game, same old thing
You never changed
Always rappin 'bout the same old thing
[Verse 2]
I got something to tell ya
I got something to tell you baby
But you ain't hip to baby
Blowin' minds is a thing of the past
You blew your chance that's why you never last
You want to be a graduate mother
But in reality just another brother
You think you slick but could
Stand a lot of greasing
The things you do ain't never really pleasin'
Can't believe nothin' you say
'Cause I'm around and I see what you do
You know you funkIER THAN a mosquito's tweeter
You got a mouth like a herd of boll weevils
Same old game, same old thing
A...lways rappin 'bout the same old thing
You beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful
[Verse 3]
You put yourself upon a big stool
Nothin' worse than an educated fool
Talkin' sex is your favorite conversation
But peace and love is a famous generation
What's in your head has really started showing
Your conversation gettin' kinda boring
Can't believe nothin' you say
'Cause I'm around and I see what you do
You know you funkIER THAN a mosquito's tweeter
You got a mouth like a herd of boll weevils
Same old game, same old game
Same old thing you never change
Same old game, same old thing
Always rappin' 'bout the same old thing

This is just badassery of the highest order.
Hell yes!
On every level.
@@jennylynn3758 Hell No ...Nina Simone- Go To Hell.
Funkier than anything
Such a rare tune. For years people didn't know it existed but bboys and bgirls been rocking this tune for years.
Some people don't know this, but the l'il mosquita had a yellow tuxeda.
really? that’s v cool any videos u could point me 2? would appreciate it
i was wndering why it sounds so familiar. i use to watch boty and bboy battles all the time when i was younger.
This version is damn near apocalyptic. It's holy.
Surprisingly mystical, spiritual and extraordinary performance. 1:11
Not many people know this...Aileen Bullock (Tina Turner's sister) wrote this song ❤
Shes the real queen....
word
Yeess
Holy shit! I didn't even realize this was a live recording until the end applause!
nina and a funky drummer, this a classic recording. one of her best. the whole band cooks.
I'm ashamed that I'm hearing this song for the first time on Lady in the Lake, but I love it already!❤
I’ve been a fan of Nina Simone for twenty years and this is the first I’ve heard this 🎉❤😊 ain’t no one like NS
Sister Nina was a gift from God.
Why weren't we here yet? We are now! And that's what matters. 3:33
A Woman to that 🙌🏾
My new "go to" favorite song
Same here!
This song is swinging. Nina Simone can sing her heart out to full glory. Even the lyrics complement the song.
Tita turners sister wrote this about ike turnen the husband from tina
@@sme5926Thank you for typing to me.
This song brings things to the surface.
2:22 ladies and gentlemen, this is fIREEEEEE
Ohh God 😅..I just felt..possessed ❤️🔥💃🏽🎶 Wild and funky💯 Thank you Queen Nina 👸🏿
❤
This is probably the greatest song of all time.
If god let me bring one person back from the grave it would be ms Nina Simone
She'd KILL your ass. Let her rest in peace l o l
@@kyleyakich3800 yup, totally!!!
I hope that Nina Simone is not dead.
She was cremated in France in 2003.
@@cathythomas9128 I am very very sorry that Nina Simone died.
One of the finest tunes ever with Nina Simone in control ! Sickest tune ever
This song is a whole vibe.
It Is Finished is a live album from Nina Simone with sitar, Madagascar harp, Spanish guitar and lots of interesting-sounding African percussion instruments. This live album includes the epic heavy-afro version of "Funkier Than A Mosquito’s Tweeter" with a massive percussion breakdown. Simone is at her best when she performs live and the energy of these recording is absolutely phenomenal. [Rough Trade] 4:45
That drum fill.... Wow
Ms Simone is a fucking genius. She encapsulates strength, power, fortitude, belief. Her music lifts me up when times are bad & makes me humble when times are good
First Simone song I heard after buying a funk compilation for 99 cents at St.Vincents. Lord, stupid me learned eventually of Nina's 4 decade bibliography.
If I ever catch the people who down voted this I will end up going to jail.
DHPearson1 8 boring people for now ....
I'd rather believe that the down voted by mistake! 8 big mistakes!
LOL
😂
lol. right
TUNE!!! ...And now I realise where Gala's 'Freed from desire' got their sample from! Only took me 30 years to figure out! #SlowCooking #PopPickers!!! Happy Birthday Nina!!!
One of the best drums breaks i know🤙🏽
Ah, yes. A guy named Curtis Mayfield also had some wicked drum/percussion breaks, too. Twas the golden age of funk RnB.
That drumming phew 🤯Aye 💯
Amazing. Speechless.
Love her! Epic track.
Fantastic version 💜🌸💜🌸💜
The Hitmaker. Nuff said
Love the lyrics!
Pure funkier soul from The Queen Nina Simone.
It's funkier than anything!
Drums on this song are SICK
Huge track!!!!
Really my favourite song of all time it’s got everything🙏✌🏼✊🏽
Love it!!!
She was an AMAZING woman ❤
Wow.....Wow........whaaaat!!?? Amazing.....and the percussion!!!!!! whaaaaaatt!!?. Thanks to KEXP. 10 stars out of 5.
Those Congas are not of this world!!
Fantastic
AMAZING
Awsome groove 🔥
Superlativa!
The perfect drum sound
Greatest diss song ever! Nina Rules!
Timeless...
Da Real Queen !!!
i like this grooooooooooooove!!!
The bass rules...
Actually the poly-rhythmic hand drumming takes the ONE lead line away from (Oakland) funk's bass, so that this version emphasizes a different world being sung. The lyrics may be the same, but Nina Simone builds a smart and sophisticated underground for this already gutsy and brilliant song written by Alline Bullock (Tina Turner's sister and also a victim of Ike's).

What a tune. Ive only just heard this 😲
Good cover of an incredible Tina Turner original.
the voice and drums!
They both go together to make it great music.
*preach, Nina. preach.*
Proper under the vibe !!!
Was written by Tina Turners sister , first recorded by Ike and Tina, both versions are brilliant
I swear she write this song 🎵
@@kirstyreynolds3577 nope.
Exactly, this was written by Tina's sister Aileen about her brother in law Ike Turner...✌🏼
Alline Bullock sister to Anna Mae Bullock aka Tina Turner.
Love it
Temazo❤️
le coeur du coeur, la lame de l'ame, nina!
Thanxxxxxx
Eu amo tanto esse som!!!!! Nina, te amo!!!!!!!!!
Never heard this before...amazin!
I found it today and can't stop playing it.
Where'd you learn about it from? We used to breakdance to this, way back in early 2000s
Sorry I'm late Nina! ❤️
La Reine de la Vibes
Que buen temita , caramba
Just brought now in my set list (vinyl of coarse)
Groovy shit ❤️
Nina! Please!!
I didnt know Miss Simone covered this.....for those of you that didnt know, Tina Turner's sister Alline wrote this diss song about Ike...but Ike being Ike...thought it was cool and recorded it lol
wow...really...
@@shariffbrown04 yes lol
@@mrbrownroyyal I listened to the original... I love when I learn something new...thanks for that nugget.. I love Tina's version, but I am in love with this version maybe because I heard it first...lol..idk
Sharone Brown: Yes usually when you hear a version first you will generally like that one ha! But yes its always cool to learn the background to songs!
BÁRBARO ! ! !
My precious power ring gone forever 4:41
I like Nina Simone, and her version is cool, but Ike and Tina's version ROCKS! Listen to the lyrics and it sounds like it was written for the Chump in the Whitehouse.
Bullseye!
Can't see the video, but my body flies away still.
I realised this was live till aplausses, PERFECT👌👌👌
The Truth
Why would people dislike this???😥😭😭
cuz they ain´t funky!
I would say it's due to head injuries that prohibit all logic and understanding:)
It's because their story's gettin dusty.
They pressed it by accident
They mouths like herds of Boll Weavils.
Clássica clássica
Only found this version cause of Ike and Tina's. But this is better. Wow.
Two entirely different creatures. Both splendid.
Increible me pone los pelos de punta
Still here 2021 💯✌
Ah! Q música! Vontade sair dançando por aí....
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I knew the Ike and Tina 's cover.
sorry i'm french. OK sh'es great. try it with ike and tina turner
the remix is a legend at the Ravers, london techno.

S.usssssseeeeesss siiissstaaaahh😅😮❤ Sassiest Song ever lady 🙌🏾😋💥😜💯🫶🏿👏🏿💓
This song goes the fuck off!
Atlanta
Atlanta?
This is awesome. I will say that Nikka Costa has a dope cover of this. DOesn't stray to far but amps up the energy with horns and guitars
That Nikka Costa version is pointless when this og version is impeccable ‘-
The title "Funkier than a Mosquito's Tweeter" gotta be one of the coolest name for a song ever! It don't get much more funky than this! This version beats Ike and Tina's.
