God, what a mess, on the ladder of success
When you take one step and miss the whole first rung
Dreams unfulfilled, graduate unskilled
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten

Isn't it awfully nice to have a penis? Isn't it frightfully good to have a dong? It's swell to have a stiffy, It's divine to own a dick. From the tiniest little tadger To the world's biggest prick! |

I wish I was a lesbian, and not a hetero. I wouldn't have to deal with men and all their come and go, And all their yucky yucky facial hair and all their machismo! I wish I were a lesbian and not a hetero! I wish I was a lesbian and that I wasn't straight. I'd sleep with women only. Man, it would be great. I'd throw away my diaphragm, I wouldn't want to mate. I wish I was a lesbian, and that I wasn't straight! |

Welcome to the jungle we've got fun and games We got everything you want honey, we know the names We are the people that can find whatever you may need If you got the money, honey we got your disease either that or Listen, there's music in the air I heard your voice, coming from somewhere But look how much we've grown I guess I should have known As the years go by, they take their toll on you Think of all the things we wanted to do And all the words we said yesterday That's a long time ago You didn't think I'd really go, now Are you waiting? (I know why) You're already… |

1, 2, 1, 2, 3 yeah! In-slum-national, underground Thunder pounds when I stomp the ground (Woo!) Like a million elephants with silverback orangutans You can't stop a train Who want some? Don't come un-pre-pared I'll be there, but when I leave there Better be a household name Weather man tellin' us it ain't gon' rain So now we sittin' in a drop-top, soakin wet In a silk suit, tryin' not to sweat Hits somersaults without the net But this'll be the year that we won't forget One-Nine-Nine-Nine, Ano Domini, anything goes, be whatchu wanna be Long as you know consequences are given for livin, the fence is too high to jump in jail Too low to dig, I might just touch hell HOT! Get a life, now they gon' sell Then I might catch you a spell, look at what came in the mail A scale and some Arm and Hammer, so grow grid and some baby máma Black Cadillac and a pack of pampers Stack of question with no answers Cure for cancer, cure for AIDS Make a nigga wanna stay on tour for days Get back home, things are wrong When I really knew it was bad all along Before you left adds up to a ball of power Thoughts at a thousands miles per hour Hello, ghetto, let your brain breathe Believe there's always mo', OW! *All occurrences of the n-word appear via simple copy-and-paste and I assume were not typed by white man. |
