[Verse 1: Open Mike Eagle] |
|
Buy seven, give an eighth one free though |
|
They overcompensating, rolling quarters into Speedos |
|
They make you sell tickets to a play |
|
To rock a show that's happening a whole 'nother day |
|
Your frozen yogurt is a lie |
|
Machines full of unused boba in disguise |
|
It's all a big sports debate show |
|
They make them choose opposite stances, this shit is fake, bro |
|
They mark up as a miracle |
|
A thousand-dollar price tag, six-dollar materials |
|
Madea movie on the tube |
|
And I'm sorry to inform you the grandmother is a dude |
|
They like to say that we're post-race |
|
So they can give us MGK and take Ghostface |
|
At the supermarket, shit annoys me |
|
I'm still tripping, how they getting milk from a soy bean |
|
[Chorus: Open Mike Eagle] |
|
Trickeration (it's a trick) [x8] |
|
Trickeration (so easy to trick) [x8] |
|
[Verse 2: MC Paul Barman] |
|
One foot in the Rockaways, one foot in the Upper West |
|
People in shock today, even after supper rest |
|
Rubberneckers see washed-up boardwalks and gravlax |
|
The hyphen in "have-not" is a knife in the padlock |
|
Keep receipts for price-gauge tax return |
|
Shacks and earn, give your taciturn ass a turn |
|
Nuance... needs are the new wants |
|
You still clip coupons if your orbit's the Forbes list |
|
Somewhere out there are trillionaires who abhor it |
|
They don't stroke their double-chin billy-goat hair |
|
They don't stand out and rap like they really don't care |
|
Feels good to agree with the means you chill in your chair |
|
Stalwarts in all sorts, their serves in our ball courts |
|
Push over tennis wall, when it falls transforms to small forts |
|
Now let's rest for a full note |
|
This text is just filler, the best is the pull quote |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse 3: Milo] |
|
(You're fucking with my head Michael!) |
|
Twist your cool-ass mustache |
|
But pretty soon you'll realise Riff Raff is just a cheap gag |
|
I'd rather receive a left hook from Seth Brooks' dad |
|
I think his last name is Binzer, Hamato Yoshi is Master Splinter |
|
But you should already know that. This is absolutely one crazy town |
|
And I get along fine for another lazy hound |
|
Like the waitress lazily recites the side dishes for the night (Yuck) |
|
My dude, I don't want none of these |
|
Wearing purple robes like my name is Empedocles |
|
And I'm hella suspicious |
|
Reading everything on Twitter when I should mind my own business |
|
Indeed, that's how they swindle and rob you |
|
Seeing the next man has a Kindle and think "so should I, too" |
|
Standing on the highest tower in Hyrule |
|
The black Power Ranger waves down, "hi fools" |
|
Ayo, this culture is mad dubious |
|
When it comes to collecting rupees, I'm the poopiest |
|
And when it comes to adult modelling, I'm the nudiest |
|
Surf my pay-to-play website where I parade around in fabric skintight |
|
They'll convince you that you do wrong |
|
I tricked you like the dude at the end of the MF DOOM song |
|
"Yo yo yo, y'all can't stand right here |
|
In his right hand was your man's worst nightmare |
|
Loud enough to burst his right eardrum close range |
|
The game is not only dangerous but it's most strange" |
