My rap period of years ago
March 26, 2006I’m not really into hiphop and rap anymore (rap and hiphop are dead), but I’m still left with this huge collection of rap and hiphop CDs from my rap period of years ago. Ice Cube, Westide Connection, Dr Dre, and yes, even Eminem. Today I put the Slim Shady LP in my CD player and got reminded of one the best verses he ever wrote for his “97 Bonnie And Clyde”.
See honey.. there’s a place called heaven and a place called hell
A place called prison and a place called jail
And da-da’s probably on his way to all of ‘m except one
Cause mama’s got a new husband and a stepson
And you don’t want a brother do ya? (Nah)
Maybe when you’re old enough to understand a little better
I’ll explain it to ya
But for now we’ll just say mama was real real bad
She was bein’ mean to dad and made him real real mad
But I still feel sad that I put her on time-out
Sit back in your chair honey, quit tryin’ to climb out (WAHH!)
I told you it’s okay HaiHai, wanna ba-ba?
Take a night-night? Nan-a-boo, goo-goo ga-ga?
Her make goo-goo ca-ca? Da-da change your dia-dee
Clean the baby up so her can take a nighty-nighty
Your dad’ll wake her up as soon as we get to the water
‘97 Bonnie and Clyde, me and my daughter
Seriously, just PURE genious.
