These are the 7 or 8 verses (depending on how they are counted) added in the extended version.


"But wait I hear they're prissy and all that
Is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat?
I don't think so I'll see when I get there I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air."

"Well uh the plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude looked like a cop standin' there with my name out
I ain't tryin' to get arrested yet I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightning disappeared."
