I’m the cat, from the alley, from the back, I’ma rally
and tally up points, rollin joints, risin to the tops
Somewhat of a playwright, cause like a stage I got props
My crew’s a strange brew, a drink a day’ll keep the stink away
We been through AA, but hey, what can I say?
Say say say, what you want, but you’ll pay the con-se-quences

Even if your name ain’t Ripley, cause Ripley don’t know diddley
Hit me one time, two times, for the U-AYYY-C
