The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was a comedy show in the '90s. It was about a "homeboy" from Philadelphia (played by Will Smith) moving into The Banks millionaire mansion. With Will and his fat jokes to Uncle Phil and one-liners to Carlton, many people liked this show.

Theme Song Lyrics

Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air

In West Philadelphia, born and raised, on the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing, all cool, and shooting some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good started making trouble in my neighborhood.
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared, she said, "You're moving with your Auntie and Uncle in Bel-Air."

I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
She gave me a kiss, then she gave me my ticket
I put my walkman on and said, "I might as well kick it."

First class, yo this is bad
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of Bel-Air live like?
Hmm, this might be all right

But wait I hear their prissy, Booze, wine and all that,
Is this the type of place they should send it's cool cat?
I don't think so, 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 who 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 and disappeared.

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said "Fresh" and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought, "Naw, forget it. Yo homes, to Bel-Air!"

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight,
And I yelled to the cabbie, "Yo homes, smell ya later!"
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there
To sit on my throne, as the prince of Bel-Air.
