[Damo]

Also, from the same song

"Did you wear the black arm band when they shot the man who said: "Peace could last forever"

I think you guys are all way too serious. Undoubtedly, the best lyrics of all time are from Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Baby Got Back".


I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waste
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung
Wanna pull up front
Cuz you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh, baby I wanna get with ya
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But with that butt you got
Me so horny
Ooh, rub all of that smooth skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz
Well use me, use me cuz you ain't that average groupy

This is poetry in motion, you guys. Anything that even remotely comes close is Right Said Fred's "I'm too sexy..."

And especially this one, in a made up language :-

"The Ketchup Song" by Las Ketchup

I was driving down a lonely road on a dark and stormy night
When a little girl by the road side showed up in my head lights
I stopped and she got in the back and in a shaky tone
She said my name is Mary please won't you take me home

She must have been so frightened all alone there in the night
There was something strange about her cause her face was deathly white
She sat so pale and quiet there in the back seat all alone
I never will forget that night I took Mary home

I pulled into the driveway where she told me to go
Got out to help her from the car and opened up the door
But I just could not believe my eyes the back seat was bare
I looked all around the car but Mary wasn't there

A small light shown from the porch a woman opened up the door
I asked about the little girl that I was looking for
Then the lady gently smiled and brushed a tear away
She said it sure was nice of you to go out of your way

But thirteen years ago today in a wreck just down the road
Our darling Mary lost her life and we still miss her so
So thank you for your trouble and the kindness you have shown
You're the thirteenth one who's been here bringing Mary home

Spooky

The Fresh Prince A.K.A. Will Smith made this catchy sing-a-long hit single back in 1987 (USA), 1988 (UK):


"Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble":

Listen homeboys don’t mean to bust your bubble
But girls of the world ain’t nothing but trouble
So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhyme and get the hell away

Just last week when I was walking down the street
I observed this lovely lady that I wanted to meet
I walked up to her I said hello
She said you’re kind of cute I said yes I know

But by the way sweetheart what’s your name
She said my friends like to call me exotic Elaine
I said my name is the Prince and she said why
I said well I don’t know I’m just a hell of a guy

But enough about me yo let’s talk about you
And all the wonderful things that you and I can do
I popped some cash and in a little bit of time
I showed some cash and the girl was mine
I took her over town I wined her and dined her
She ask me did I like her I said well kinda

All of a sudden she jumped out her seat
Snatched me up by my wrist and took me out to the street
She started grabbin' all over me kissing and huggin'
So I shoved her away I said you better stop buggin'

She got mad looked me dead in my face
Threw her hands in the air and yelled out rape
I got scared when she started to yell
So I handed her my wallet and ran like hell

I was duckin' through alleys right and left
But when the cops caught up they almost beat me to death
I was arrested charged with aggravated assault
(yo Clancy we got him)

But it wasn’t my fault
Nevertheless don’t mean to bust your bubble
But girls of the world ain’t nothing but trouble
So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhyme and get the hell away

I was in a bar one Friday night
Cooling watching a Mike Tyson fight
I was maxin' and relaxin' sippin' on tequila
When this girl walked up she said hi my name is Sheila

I responded by saying hello
She paid for my drink and then said let’s go

20 minutes later things were starting to cook
As we pulled up into her house I said I’m with you toots

The music was soft and there was wine in the glasses
She started winking and making little passes
At me she pat me close that’s when she got bold
She started feeling up my back I said oh your hands are cold

We went to her bedroom thinking of one thing
Took the phone off the hook to avoid the annoying ring
I caressed her body and I kissed her cheek
And that’s when I observed those satin bed sheets

I felt that it was time for me to make my move
I thought I better hurry up before I busted a groove
I leaned down to kiss her but then out of the blue
A door slammed and a voice said baby where are you

Her boyfriend busted in he grinned an evil grin
And said boy I’m a tear your butt limb from limb

I was scared as hell where I was supposed to go
I just yelled "Geronimo" and jumped out the window

Just my luck we were in a snow storm
And all I had was my underwear on to keep my warm
And to top the night off I had to break in my place
Because my keys were on pants back on Sheila’s book case

I was done sneezing and coughing
I hope this doesn’t happen to often
But nevertheless don’t mean to bust your bubble
But girls of the world ain’t nothing but trouble

So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhymes and get the hell away

Jazzy: Yo man you think they see your point
Prince: I don’t know I don’t think they really do
Jazzy: I think you should give ’em another example
Prince: 'Awright' give me a scratch let’s make it funky right here

I got a ring on my phone May 5th last year
It was my girlfriend Betty I said hello dear
I was just about to call you I got a couple tickets to the Run DMC concert
(I’m wit it)
It’s six o’clock now at eight will you be ready
(yeah)
'Awright' fine see you then Betty

I combed my hair washed and brushed my teeth
Got funky fresh dressed in my la cox
Got to Betty’s at eight I was ready to jet
Until Betty’s mom said Betty’s not ready yet

I sat there for at least an hour
It was ten after nine before she got in the shower
9:35 she comes downstairs
And said I need a little longer to finish my hair

At ten o’clock we had then missed the show
She comes downstairs and says let’s go
Go where go to sleep I’m gone

I was steamin' like a demon as I drove home
But it just goes to show

Not trying to bust your bubble
But girls of the world ain’t nothing but trouble
So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhyme just remember my rhymes
Take heed to my rhymes and get the hell away

Jazzy: Man first your parents just don’t understand
Then you having these crazy nightmares

Prince:
I know why me man why me

Jazzy: What’s next?

Prince: Now these girls man you know how it is
Can’t live wit ’em can’t live wit’out ’em
