[Ghostface Killah] Yo Aiyyo I'm lost underwater I see a pink dog with a crystal handle, so I keep swimmin Amazed that I'm not drownin Butterflies took control when I arrived, I opened the door No I knocked first, I'm not on my turf I seen a ray of lights that resemble live fireworks Some mermaids with Halle Berry haircuts flashin they tail Like follow me now, don't be afraid I'ma show you where all the djinns and spirits pray If you scared to face this life you shouldn't stay So I kept on swimmin, grabbed on to her fin to help me out As we got close I seen the boat all shot up with his anchor out Then she asked me politely what I'm thinkin about I said nuttin - she said nuttin leaves nuttin If you fill me up bet this'll bring that out I seen rubies, diamonds, smothered under octopus Jellyfish sharks soar, aquaproof pocketbook Pearls on the mermaid girls Gucci belts that they rock for no reason from a different world Up ahead lies Noah's Ark, but that's waves away And way to the right, that's one of our bangin spas She quoted I took notice, Spongebob in the Bentley Coupe Bangin the Isleys, he slow backed up Then he passed me swoop, seen his chick eyein me hard He got vexed and smacked his boo Took off, continued my travels Seen a rock from the Titanic Lookin fat and nah it wasn't damaged Then I seen somethin real big, sky blue and gold with whitewalls, behind a large city That was lost before Christ walked the walk upon the waters that's so bright Everytime we got close the mermaid held on tight All I heard was "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar" "Bismillah ar-Rahman, ar-Raheem, Allah screamed" That we heard from afar, everyone selat And the world's banginest minds got crowded in With life that I can't explain They said sir yes I'm glad you came, greeted me with Qu'rans and Torahs Prayed after that we said amen
