Some static started in the pool hall Hit a motherfucker's face with the cue ball Then I met this girl she tried to gank me So I smacked her in the booty with a Plank Bee Cause me and my crew were out breakin' windows The bingo the lotto you know I'll never win those Possession is half the law I had my routines before all y'all Your whole life is comin' apart at the seams You ain't nothing but a car thief biting routines See I'm a city slicker I ain't no townie Right now I wish I had another hash brownie Like Ricky always said you've got to toke and pass Or Mookie's gonna kick your motherfuckin' ass You try to take what isn't yours like a God damn rat "See I personally I wouldn't even wanna' go out like that" I'm a writer a poet a genius I know it I don't buy cheeba I grow it "I'm a farmer" People always trying to get next to me I had a beautiful experience on ecstasy I smoked up a bag of elephant tranquilizer Because I had to deal with a money hungry miser Had a caine filled Kool with my man Rush Rush Saw my teeth fall in the sink when I started to brush You be doing nose candy on the Bowie Coke Mirror My girl asked for some but I pretended not to hear her You can't deny me you always want to try me Yo you're just gonna get your ass kicked Homeboy throw in the towel Your girl got dicked by Ricky Powell The Godfather of Soul in the belly of the beast Smokin' that dust at St. Anthony's Feast All the wife beaters and all the tax cheaters Sitting in the White House pulling their peters Buy my cheeba from the cop down the street The only cop with a rope chain with the walking the beat So like a sneaky pouch time bomb tickin' Like the beat to my rhyme just kickin' Space cake cookies I discover who I am I'm a dusted old bummy Hurdy Gurdy Man Five-O caught me now I'm going to the mountains Said good-bye to my girl my lawyers and accountants My mind is kinda' rhymin' and I think I oughta think So I'm rockin all the rhymes and I'll have another drink So the lights are flashing my mind is spinning I feel like it is always the beginning Of another rhyme I'm rappin' MC'in' I rock You ain't nothing but a car thief who must be stopped
