Intro:
Sup? Short Dogg back in the house beeyatch! And it don’t stop to the beat Ain’t no thang but a chicken wing We gonna do it like this one mo’ time
Verse 1:
Straight from Oakland, California I’m back again Short Dogg’s on the mic ’bout to mack and pimp We got flavor at the Dangerous Crew camp Save ya money, can’t use dem food stamps Other crews like to sample and mix But our crew, we just play that shit live, drums, bass, keys Niggas don’t like it, you can get bees stuck in the back of your throat Fuckin with a pimp named Sir Too $hort We coulda sampled the Luke but we didn’t I’d rather treat ya like a ho and start pimpin When will you other brothers realise? Can’t fuck with my crew better feel your eyes cos you must be blind if you can’t see And I’ma say this shit quite frankly I give a fuck when freestylers step up I don’t do it, tell you ’bout it on the next cut Cos right now we gotta feel the flow and make sure we keep it real slow Just like the motherfuckin Dangerous Crew We gettin funky like it’s 1972 Still puffin on them zags, dressed like pimps and axe Ohio Players once again can we sample the funk?
Y’know we don’t wanna wear it out We just wanna lil’ piece, y’knowhati’msayin? We ain’t goin loopy, we’re goin freaky We gonna funk it track for track Dangerous Crew style Ant Banks let me flip this one more time Ya ready?
Verse 2:
All you brand new rappers got a new flow You ain’t samplin James Brown no mo’ Probably try to sample cameo Parliament Funkadelic, you scandalous ho you stole it, Ossie Brothers, Bark Kays Barry White, Isaac Hayes Have you heard the term ‘Sample Clearance’? Start the nigga who wrote it, would never hear it Now we’re suin your ass for sure Got’cha spendin all ya money cos you need a lawyer You got problems and ya need ta solve em Ya shouldn’t of sampled wouldn’t of had dem problems If you’d have played your own shit you wouldn’t be broke, you woulda made ya long grip, bitch But that’s irrelevant now, my friend cos they done wiped you clean like Ant Banks’ Benz Sittin on some three-piece AMG’s Better find you a sample, you ain’t playin these kinda beats, so funky make your fingers pop If you can’t find a sample you ain’t got not one damn thing for a nigga to ride to But I been gettin funky since I was in high school Growin up in that Bootsy’s rubber band In ’76, seen a mothership land Nothin but funk all in your face I like to slow it way down in ass and bass cos that’s how we be layin tracks Just flip the funky rhyme and start sayin raps Get funky with Ant Banks, PeeWee, Shorty B Father D, Dope D, Tony T The motherfuckin Dangerous Crew and that’s the drop from the dime, we’ll change the groove just to sample the funk
Beeyatch! That’s right, PeeWee friggin the keyboards Tony T on the drums, Shorty B on the bass Ant Banks on the mixing boards, Short Dogg on the vocals
Verse 3:
Right now you know the story of Too $hort baby First started rappin in 1980 I got more game than Monopoly Now I’m makin money there ain’t nobody stoppin me Used to be local til I signed with Jive, man Used to like to sample now I’m rollin with live band Now that I finally did this shit I’m makin one more album and then I quit and only one thing could make me say I’m not and that’s one million dollars on the spot Upfront cash, money, no compromise No schemes, no scandals, don’t front and lie Just pay the man in full Thirty years old, torch the bull Ain’t givin shit up but the funk Let these record companies know what the fuck I want Cos they been fuckin black folks right from the start When you sign that line te
I was told not long ago Too $hort don’t stop that rap!? Now everytime I grab the mic I rock you just like that 8 years ago when I started to rap I use to sell tapes everywhere It was me and my homeboy freddy b, yoo Kickin’ it like big players Everybody loved my raps like 100 dollar bills I rocked houseparties on 98th Even rocked in 69 vill Might find me on the mic at Hot Lips house Or at the Eastbay Dragonspot All the 85th boys with their hand in the air Screamin’ Too $hort just don’t stop!? Like Royal Park, like Plymouth Rock First street and Sunnyside Like Sobrante Park and Brookefield East Oakland, yeah, that’s right 5 years ago I continued to rock And if you haven’t yet heard my name It was all in the papers, on the evening news I was stone cold in the game Around that time a friend of mine My homeboy Lionel B hooked me up like this, yoo On the stage just rockin’ the beat Some say I have a dirty mind Sometimes that might be true But these are just some dirty times I ain’t trippin’ on you…
I ain’t trippin’, keep on talkin’ You think i’m smokin’ that pipe I got money, homeboy I even got some of your future wifes Well, my story goes like this, man I smooth went out on wax Singin’ Girl, That’s Your Life? Female Funk? and Shortrapp? Silky D worked the beat kicked me cold cash I was ridin’ the bus one day Next day I was on the gas Everybody loved Too $hort Rollin’ down the strip Then one day just like that Homeboy jumped on my tip You started spreadin’ rumors, man Said you saw me rappin’ in jail No, I never came down to the flatlands I was chillin’ with the homies from the hill I ain’t trippin’ but the word went out Sir Too $hort was through Can’t really say where it all began So i’ma blamin’ it all on you Everybody use to say Too $hort don’t stop that rap!? Now everytime you see my face You say i’m smokin’ crack Oakland, California, I heard it all before I’m makin’ big bank now, rockin’ the crowd I ain’t trippin’ no more…
Now I’m back on top again I still don’t stop that rap Everytime I grab the mic My bankroll’s gettin’ fat Freaky Tales? took care of that You know I’m comin’ up Cause everytime you see my face I’m rollin’ all so tough When I made the cut…the-he-he Freaky Tales? I started picturin’ this I named my album Born To Mack? With the cleaniest raps and beats Everythin’ was kickin’ in Me and Ran kept cashin’ checks Next thing I know there you go Guess who’s on my tip? You said I just got out of jail Jumped right back on that pipe Your sister’s boyfriend told you, man I’m smokin’ every night Then you came to my show And stood there so damn bold You said Too $hort, man, you smoking’ And i’m standin’ here dreamin’ gold I ain’t trippin’ no more Really ain’t worth my time So to squashed it off I kicked on back And wrote you all the rhyme Benzes rollin’, Beemers jettin’ And Caddies keep on dippin’ You keep on talkin’ all that crap I ain’t trippin’… |
