hip hop is the future, hip hop is my life
it means even more to me than my marriage with my wife
but I don't mean to brag,
and I don't mean to boast,
when it comes to hip hop skill
I clearly got the most
and the rhymes I'm spittin
the rhymes that I'm gettin
they don't mean a thing unless you sing it with me now:
I'm the big money ghost
I'm the company man
and I can't change that,
it's just who I am
the people askin me for money, I don't listen cause
the people ain't entirely on board for my mission, you see
I don't give a crap about givin for charitys,
I only give a crap about what she said to me,
she said I was the best ghost she ever met
she said she wanted most to get me in bed
and she didn't wanna watch no tv shows
she just wanna make a story grow, oh no
the lesson that i learned wasn't what she was teachin
it's that everyone and everywheres a bunch a leeches
and they just wanna steal all my big ghost money
but then i'd just be a ghost and that wouldn't be funny-
so I'm gonna keep up my 1 percentin
until the judgment come down and we're all repentin
cause the only person judgin me is me
and the only thing i know is <nuthin comes free>

~
well i bought a brand new sweater
for the new fall semester,
i've got leaves and you've got feathers
(for a brain)
~
you wear your flannel
and you look real cool
recycling paper
on your way to school
girls like you,
well, there's six million more
but you're the sexiest
one for sure
and you're my
true love (hoot hoot)
true love (hoot hoot)
when i put my lips to your ear
makes me think of my professional career
some kind of diamonds
were made out of rubber
some kinds of people
we're produced for one another
if your life was completely wasted
we'd probably know that by now, honey...
rrrappp:
i got a nose like toes
and a head like bread
i took some pills cause i woke up this morning dead
i wear powdered sugar instead of make up
pack up, back up, and your bills stack up
now you're out of the city and I still got my

hands on it
falling half asleep
blushes and looks away
gets harder to breathe
and if it happens today
i won't know what to say
and if it rains
(i hope you'll stay)
redness in the corner of my eye
washing the sheets
calamine lotion
jungle beats
and if it happens today
i won't know what to say
and if it rains
i know i'll stay in my bed
because i've been so sick lately
oh god please help me out

I asked the new robot
I just designed
I asked the new robot
if God was real.
isn't it funny that no one knows
anything about rain
seems like some one would've studied
that kind of thing
don't you think
it makes no sense
in other words
don't you think
it's kind of weird
it's just kind of odd, oh well, oh well
there's a whole lot of hope
but there's no hope
for anyone here
in my heaven
none of us are there
in my heaven
none of us are there
we're all right here
don't you think
it makes no sense
in other words
don't you think
it's kind of weird
it's just kind of odd, oh well, oh well, oh well...
there are four walls around me
and probably everything else
to keep the alarms from sounding
but it'd take a million years
and if you hear a tapping
against the window pane
please tell me
notify me right away

but i still love sally brown

I always wanted
a house by the ocean,
maybe in another life,
I won't really want one.
Waiting at the door
with her stained glasses,
vines flower from her dress,
see it's the brightest sun
and i don't know where she got it
she's in all my classes
can make it into a movie
I always wanted
a remote control that could
do its work
on the surface
of the entire universe
and then finally
i'm holding it
in my hands
today

well, there is no love like the love between humans and robots
and there's a certain kind of driving that you do between federal prison blocks
and there's a baby holding a pack of marlboros
but there is no love like the love between humans and robots
I can't believe
how long we've known each other
I can't conceive of all
the years we've shared
and I couldn't love you
any more than I try to
but I wish I could
I wish I could
but there is no love like the love between humans and robots
and there's a certain kind of driving that you do between federal prison blocks
and there's a baby holding a pack of marlboros
but there's no love like the love between humans and robots

RONNIE
Dan, ya gotta listen to me, okay? Real quick. I’m a polygamist, Dan, I have many, many wives, Dan. I have so many wives! I’ve got probably about a hundred wives, Dan, and the government looks down on me! They-they don’t respect me, Dan, because I have, I just have way more wives than is usually allowed and they, they think I’m a freak, Dan, and I’d lose my job, Dan...
DAN
Oh my God, Ronnie, that’s totally crazy-
RONNIE
I know, I know, but, so, that’s why I need to help, I need ya to help me out here. I have a lot of families to get back to, tonight, Dan. I have a lot of kids waiting to be tucked in, and, and they’re-they're scared, Dan, because of the storm they’re all scared, okay?
DAN
Oh, I gotcha, Ronnie. Ronnie, loud and clear, let’s get to work then, Ronnie.
RONNIE
Dan, wait one second, before we start working.
DAN
Okay, Ronnie.
RONNIE
Don’t you think it’s weird that I have so many families, Dan?
DAN
Yes, Ronnie.
RONNIE
But, Dan! Dan, it’s not weird, it’s just different!
In many ways it seems I'm just not a man of my age, Dan...
DAN
Yeah, Ronnie, I don’t know what to think, but you're a great guy and I think we're friends.
RONNIE
We get along great, Dan. To tell ya the truth, though, Dan, a lot of the time I feel I would be much happier livin’ in the Old West or in Medieval Times.
DAN
Yeah?
*you are a t-shirt for my soul,
threadbare and swollen,
you've got it all
tied up*
DAN
Wow, Ronnie, this sure is a weird, is a weird, a kind of strange and magic, uh, job we do...
RONNIE
Nothin' magical about it, Dan, it's just the way things are and, it's the way things have been for a long time, since- Ever since I've been here it's all worked the same way, ya know?
DAN
Sure, Ronnie. Can I see that ball, Ronnie, could I see the orb that fell down?
RONNIE
Dan, you'll have your own orb soon enough and you can look at that, but we gotta hurry, cause I'm really anxious to clock out, Dan, I have to go around to all my families and tuck in all those kids, Dan, it's not so easy...
But it is fun, Dan! Over the years I've learned it can be a source of enormous well-being and internal happiness. With so many kids, I've got the whole process down to about three hours, which is what I thought I'd be able to get it down to.
DAN
Right, okay, so I'll just put the chairs back in starting position here.
RONNIE
Exactly, if you keep up this pace, we'll be out of here in probably five minutes, Dan.

put some gauze around my face
put a muzzle on me
i'm gonna teach the whole human race
not to mess with guys like me
and when i hear the sirens
doesn't frighten me
but when i see you driving on the highway
makes a fool out of me
and when the lights go out
in major cities all around
when the lights go out
i miss everyone i used to know how
to live and be excited
when I turn out all the lights
your path will be
still lighted by the brick red moon
so put the bomb in the San Andreas Fault
put the letter under the bridge
he can pull on the metal as much as he wants
he's not getting out of this (that should hold him!)
and when the lights go out
what's it all about?
when the lights go out

i was walking down an alleyway
just the day after yesterday
looked up and saw the moon like a stop sign in the sky
when the billboards get too big to read
and all your money's spent on things you'll need
go to work where you're supposed to be
get home and you're too tired to sleep
your uncle's too stupid now to speak
your aunt's too tall for you to see
your brother's too busy rakin leaves
your other brother's shaken all the trees
your lover's not who you thought he or she would be
and same with all the other fish in the sea
well there's none so blind as those who will not see
it looks like we'll be frozen here a long time
and all on our frozen fathers' dimes
facebooks and novels and the grocery line
everybody's gonna be doing just fine
well, that's all good but i got this idea of mine
and nobody's giving me any light
like buried bones
and the stars at night
i'm sorry to interrupt this lovely song, but i'm afraid we're going to have to ask everyone to leave. we've just discovered that poison gas is leaking from the old mines and for your own safety we're evacuating the town.
~
learning licking lips from just a site
morning's misses mists frost not bite
and nobody's given you a light
just the math of the day
just the stars at night
and when you're sleeping in your car make sure the window's down
when you're sleeping with someone makes sure the window's down
don't let anyone turn me around
when you're staring up at the smoky air
staring up every skirt i wear
got leaves and candy stuck in your hair
giving all your friends angry stares
and so on and so on...
