when i was young, i was taught how to produce
the science of babies gettin' loose
i turned white boys to springsteen spruce
blacks to spooks, gave the chinese Bruce
i can't help it if my style is foggy, monster boogie
get ya high on my patio, all come to see me movie
bitches, you're walkin on my dirt
we ain't sayin nothin'
i whisper in ya ear, make ya blink cold pert
love potion, plenty bones I put up
what! what! what! what!
you know what time it is, motherfuckers!

- odb

not really genius, i guess. it's the first
thing i thought of.

"I swung at the cat trying to hit its paw,

But he was too fast, he struck me with his claws.

The iddy-biddy kitty-kat hurt my pride,

So I took the iddy-biddy cat outside,

Then I through the f[bleep]in' cat on the g[bleep]damn roof.

"You ask me do I like Arsenio? About as much as the Bicentennio" - Ice Cube

In fact, a lot of the stuff on DEATH CERTIFICATE, the first side, is full of great funny lyrics. Cube was on a roll.

Eminem and the Coup seem to claim more than their share of hilarious genius, too, in my opinion.

matt riedl (veal), Sunday, 25 August 2002 14:14 (twenty-three years ago)

"City lights from faraway can make you drop your jaw/sparklin' like sequins on a transvestite at Mardi Gras" -- the Coup, "Me and Jesus the Pimp in a '79 Granada Last Night" (not stupid-genius or weirdo-genius but wherethefuckdidTHATanalogycomefrom?-genius.)

Also from that same song: "Micro-soft motherfuckers let bygones be bygones/but since I'm Mack-intosh I'm'a double-click your icon [SFX: two gunshots]"

IN THE YEAR 2525 (EXORDIUM AND TERMINUS)

Zager And Evans

In the year 2525, if man is still alive,

If woman can survive, they may find-




In the year 3535

Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies.

Everything you think, do, and say

Is in the pill you took today.




In the year 4545

Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes.

You won't find a thing to chew,

Nobody's gonna look at you.




In the year 5555

Your arms are hanging limp at your side,

You legs got nothing to do,

Some machine's doing that for you.




In the year 6565

Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife.

You'll pick your sons, pick your daughters too

From the bottom of a long glass tube.

Whoa-oh-oh.




In the year 7510

If God's a-coming He ought to make it by then.

Maybe he'll look around himself and say,

"Guess it's time for the Judgement Day."




In the year 8510

God is gonna shake his mighty head.

He'll either say, "I'm pleased where man has been"

Or tear it down and start again. - Whoa-oh-oh




In the year 9595

I'm kinda wondering if man is gonna be alive;

He's taken everything this old Earth can give

And he ain't put back nothing.




Now it's been ten thousand years,

Man has cried a billion tears

For what he never knew.

Now man's reign is through.

But throughout eternal night,

The twinkling of starlight,

So very far away,

Maybe it's only yesterday...




In the year 2525 (etc...)

ha! That was sposed to go on the 'worst rhyming lyrics' thread but I accidentally put it here ....! Maybe the moderator could move it or something.

maryann, Monday, 26 August 2002 07:02 (twenty-three years ago)

It's funny because I was thinking, "maybe this is a bit dodgy ..." (ie because the rappers mentioned are black, stereotyped sometimes as stupid, ok ok I know pc psycho), and started thinking of white songs that are way worse, then I remembered that there was a worst rhyming lyrics thread and though "I'll just post to that" ... then they ended up here anyway because I forgot.

maryann, Monday, 26 August 2002 07:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 26 August 2002 17:25 (twenty-three years ago)

then there's songs where the entire thing is hilariously genius, like Big Tymers' "Big Ballin", where the specific lines may not be killer, but the overall effect is just too funny, which i credit to manny fresh, who is a terribly funny man

MCs indulging in weird pop culture appreciation while on tour:

Del the Funky Homosapien's "Phoney Phranchise": "With my headphones slammin' playin' Iron Maiden/Sleepin' in the lobby in the Days Inn"
Kool Keith's "Lost In Space": "Turn off my pager and quickly relax my feet/hotel unknown drinkin' brew watchin' 'Sesame Street'"

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 27 August 2002 12:42 (twenty-three years ago)

I always refer to Tim Dog's Penicillin on Wax LP for some of the most hilarious rap faux pas ever. Some gems:

"Tryin' to have class
Too dumb to be smart, too dumb to get ass"

"Talkin' that red, black and green
That's cool, but gimme the green"

"She wanted me to pee in her face
(So what did you do?)
I pissed in her face!"

"There I was, sittin' on the bus, feelin' senile
Ridin' upstate to the mf'n penile...
I was sittin' in the back with two Puerto Ricans
and their feet were stinkin'- whoo!"

"Too dumb to be smart" - that one always kills me.

mike a, Tuesday, 27 August 2002 15:29 (twenty-three years ago)

the 1st Gold Chains mini-album EP thing has often-hilarious genius lyrics galore too, i keep finding new ones i'd not picked up before on every listen

pete^f, Tuesday, 27 August 2002 23:02 (twenty-three years ago)

maryann, you'll be into this ?

good trick for manipulating man/woman (target) at karaoke bar is talk about how things are so gloomy these days using eco/war genetix blah blah general sci fi stuff (make up a story perhaps) and freak them out

you'll find one of the few good songs on nu zilant karaoke machines is ".. year 2525" so have it booked (before beginning to get too predatory with target(s), like they don't see you book it, for instance)

so when you're really worrying the shit out of person(s) (or perhaps even freak out the sister who's with him (ie get the chance to agree with his sister that it _is_ a scary song because maybe his whole family thinks it's a really scary song) -- doesn't matter how scared you are)

then your name get's called mysteriously out of the blue (and make that really freaky like the pub want's you to sing and you're being forced against your will eg) and you go up and sing that song you know so well, and it _does_ generally scare people in my experience, so you'll have by now a selection of people to reassure for the rest of the night from that pub into the palm of your hand to alternatively scare/fuck/reassure to _your_ heart's content

in my experience just karaokeing _that_ song out of the blue will freak out quite a number of people who're into karaoke as they compare you to what their partner's capable of singing or talking or thinking about etc..

george gosset (gegoss), Wednesday, 28 August 2002 06:10 (twenty-three years ago)

"brothers' gotta work it out" (and out of major rhythm) "and stop chasing"

george gosset (gegoss), Wednesday, 28 August 2002 06:11 (twenty-three years ago)

i thunk once th'fuckin'A rap song was cool (circa "the last poets" who i hadn't got 'round to hearing, when i was 1 years old) weren't even sungk by a affromerican
so later heard

it's that motherzappa's "Freak Out" (1st zappa and 1st true double album in rock) song "trouble coming everyday" where shit-hot-(w)h(it)e frank raps along the lines of "how the niggers feel the cold and the sun's got so much soul" and sweats it watching the poor old police vs. the blacks in the Watts riots on TV ("with the [whiskey] passing 'round") as he's reclining on w/beer

his double-black delivery on _only_this_song_ is "rap" ( the way the "cat's that he won't let work with him 'cause they smoke in the studio, dig their own ideas, work as a team etc. " talk )

Oh god! Talking of Eazy-E made me remember this hilarious sequence:

"Tell yo' momma to get off my tip
I have no time to give her my dick
I'm gonna hold it and walk around the stage
And if you fuck up I'm going to get the gauge
And unload the barrel and laugh
'Cuz I'm putting lead in yo' muthafuckin' ass."

Haha! I love that...

#include my fave if fake ethic "rap" is the sun city girls channelling "X + Y = FUCK YOU", a song which i can't re-write here and has to be heard to be believed

#2 the 'girl's "Nepoleon and Josephine" single subverts up raps "man, i know what i'm talking about, uh , y'_know_, know what i'm saying"(well the 'girls don't resort to cliche, if you know what i'm saying) machismo word to the wise guy crock, by assuming the position of a screwed-up all-american bad-ass rapping to one of his fellows, like "that's how it is, man, the white man will not understand these languages or equations" as _naieve_ _misinterpretation_ of conspiracy theory, rap rhyme, black cop white cop and especially the whole "i'm channelling the _real_ _media_ in my head man";

in both cases none of the above are the actual words, it's much funnier/faster when paid at full speed, but most importantly, the topicality of "meninkahki mashh6077" type stuff -- but real words "zimbabwe" for instance ..

actually here's some rations of x+y=foo as best as i can rab (hear it "tonight, the whole thing, cut it off, send it to me,[ .. ,] CA12345, Redondo Beach, men are pigs, yeah" henrietta):

... the iraq-oi tryed, didn't [] but [] tied,
zerostrian skulls, salvation army christmas bells,

strike !

to [debauche the things i] shouldn't, and to flap the wings i couldn't ...

There's an Alkaholiks lyric that goes something like "Every day I get about 10 messages/I only call the ones with the big, big breastices."

mike a (mike a), Monday, 17 February 2003 15:44 (twenty-three years ago)

So you think Jay Z is blowing up?
He's blowing something
Girls girls girls girls he adores
Yeah, elton john got married mate, ya get me?

What exactly does this mean? Didn't Jay-Z blow up 7 years ago? And isn't the Elton John reference just a more homophobic version of "Gay-Z"? I'd like to think it means that Sean Carter's really a monogamous kind of guy - which makes me like the Jay-Z song even more - but I know that's not what he's saying.

"Hero Theme" by The Infesticons:

My beats are like molasses
Sweet and slow like Jackie Onassis with Alzheimer's
Social climbers, slip on my diarrhea
MCs sound the same like onomatopoeia.


The new Majesticons album also has lots of these, my favourite:

What it looks like
What it smells like
What it tastes like
What it feels like not be genuine
Don't need plastic to represent I'm feminine
My oestrogen is powerful, I'm a superhero
You're busy chasing Rob, what for, his de Niro?

Probably that Felix Unger, the neat freak, would never drool at the dinner table.

What really confuses me is "you say you like Felix Unger" line. Is "you" being used as "you are," as in "you say you pattern yourself after Felix Unger, but you must be lying as you're drooling at the dinner table?" Or should it be read as "you express an admiration for Felix Unger, but your lack of table manners force me to question that statement?"

"I make them devils cower to the Caucus Mountains" (uh, where?)

"Yeah Onyx, Wu-Tang, on tracks we gang bang
Chitty Bang Bang, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"

and a few seconds later:

"Aiyyo you ready for the ferocious, atrocious
Supercalifragalisticexpialla dope shit"

Redman's "I'll Bee Dat" builds its genius across the song with this theme:

"My first name must be 'he ain't shit'
Cause every time I'm in the car bitches be like, 'he ain't shit!'"

"My middle name must be 'fuck you'
Cause every time I'm in the hood niggers be like, 'fuck you!'"

and, in the verse:

"Remember you, bitch? Shit, I forget my last name."

which, taken together, suggests that Redman has no idea who he is at all, which makes me laugh. Also: "A ghetto like D&D fuckin' with D; you'll be on 'Banned From TV, Part Three." and "Soon as I walk in, dogs are barking; Haters play them back, I stay in front like handicap parking."

Well, gosh, color me corrected then. In tribute to KRS-One, here's some lines from "C.I.A." by KRS-One featuring, the Last Emperor, and, um, Zach de la Rocha:

"When Lady Liberty has been Bewitched like Samantha
And poverty is one of the most malignant forms of cancer
To all my black-magic romancers and acid-rain dancers:
Develop close ties, like Jerry Seinfeld and George Costanza."

and:

"Whirlwind tornadoes in the rain-forest if you say so,
KRS and the Last Emperor, raw like the Green Hornet and Kato
Zach de la Rocha brings the en'Rage'd flow
But all three drop science to become the most powerful alliance since NATO."

amazingly, neither these awkward metaphors, nor the chorus's ineffably clumsy "You claim I'm sellin' crack...but you be doin' that," nor even the echo effect on "NATO" (nato ato ato ato) come from Zach de la Rocha, who mostly lays low and lets the so-called Last Emperor drop all these terrible rhymes...KRS-One mostly limits himself to some "yuh yuh yuh" stuff...it's a fairly weak track overall but strangely compelling...

'This is discrimination!
What's the charge?' he said, 'you just robbed a gas station'
'Who me? not me! It couldn't be
I was at the Grammys, with Brandy;
Didn't you see me, on T V?'
'Bullshit, y'all all in the same game'
He tried to run me off the road
Like he was Roscoe P. Coltrane."

And Christopher Reeves won't sit for this neither
And let's clear this up too,

I feel like it's my fault cause of the way that
I stuck him up in between him and Lex Luthor.
I killed Superman! I killed Super Man... how ironic
That I'd be the bad guy, Kryptonite, the green Chronic."

And:

"You find me offensive, I find you offensive
Shit, this is the same first I just did, this.
When am I gonna come to my good senses?
Probably the day Bush comes to my defenses
My Spider-Sense is telling me Spider-Man is nearby
And my plan is to get him next."

And the best:

"High-five Nick Lachey
Stuck a pin in Jessica's ass and walked away
And as she flew around the room like a balloon I
grabbed the last can of chicken tuna
out the trash can and zoom-a
Headed straight back to the Neverland Ranch
with a peanut butter jelly chicken tuna sandwich."

You maybe have to hear the song to grasp just how perfectly all this straddles the line between clunky awkwardness and brilliant flow. But somehow to me it epitomizes what I love about this thread.

one month passes...
Oh! Gee! And "Big Ole Butt" by LL Cool J! At this point in the song he's left two different girls for new ones with bigger butts, and is currently dating Brenda. He goes to Red Lobster for some surf-n-turf and ends up seducing one of the waitresses, and they do it all night long on a restaurant table. Then:

I heard somebody coughin'
I checked my watch
I couldn't believe it said nine o' clock!
I grabbed my pants, put on my Kangol
Who did I see, oh YO!
It was Brenda
She worked at Red Lobster, but I didn't remember.

He didn't remember? It's either stupidest thing I've ever heard or the most badass.

On the same tip, when he's like

Don't call it a comeback
I been here for years

....what does he really mean? I mean at first it's obvious and kicks ass and you're totally sold, and then it's like - but wait, LL, it's implicit in the idea of a comeback that someone has been around for years, sucking. He might as well have said "Don't call it a comeback / Some of the greatest artists ever are bland."

Luda is great for this, i.e.,

Gettin' goosebumps

A couple of gats, a couple of knives
A couple of rats a couple of wives"

No! It's implicit that they have been GONE and are now COMING BACK.

Here's an actual problematic LL lyric that gets totally sold by his delivery:

I dunno what stats to check on this, but usually don't we label things as "comeback albums" or comeback seasons for sports teams or whatever when they've been around but have been putting out crap? I'm thinking of AMG boilerplate like, I dunno -

The Sorry Sods spent the 80s in the woods commercially, releasing an intermittent stream of albums that failed to ignite the charts or much critical love. Perhaps sensing things were amiss, they consciously drafted Les Invisibles as a tour de force, sidestepping the genre experiments of their previous two LPs and delivering a guest-star-packed encapsulation of the sound that originally brought them fame; minus a few contemporary production touches, it could easily have fit in between Malamaurocking and Six Years On The Underground. The formula work, and the record delivered a solid comeback for the band, who then proceeded to squander the momentum once again over the next few years...

Doctor Casino (Doctor Casino), Sunday, 16 July 2006 13:43 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, but you'd also label a new album made by an artist who hasn't been making albums for years a "comeback."

max (maxreax), Sunday, 16 July 2006 14:51 (nineteen years ago)

you're thinking of a "return to form", for examples see any Rolling Stones or Paul McCartney album review since 1980

Damn Nate for dropping that Del lyric. That was mine, dammit:

Long one from Simon Says by yesterday's God-Not, Pharoahe fuckin' Monche:

Girlies, rub on your titties - yeah
Fuck it - I said, rub on your titties
New York City Gritty Committee
Pity the fool that act shitty
In the midst of the calm, the witty

Yo, where you at?
Uptown, let me see 'em
Notorious for the six-fives and the BMs
Heads give you beef, you put 'em in the mausoleum
And shit don't start pumpin' til after twelve pee-em
Uhhh - ignorant minds, I free 'em
If you tired of the same old everyday you will agree I'm
The most obligated, hard R-rated
Slated to be the best, I must confess the star made it

Now, some might even say that this song is sexist
Cause I ask the girlies to rub on they breast-eses
Whether your ridin' the train or in a Lexus-eses
This is for either/or Rollies or Timex-eses
Wicked like the Exorcist - this is the joint
You holdin' up the wall, then you missin' the point

fuckfuckingfuckedfucker (fuckfuckingfuckedfucker), Monday, 17 July 2006 13:40 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, and from the same jam:

"You sold platinum 'round the world - I sold wood in the hood"

fuckfuckingfuckedfucker (fuckfuckingfuckedfucker), Monday, 17 July 2006 13:41 (nineteen years ago)

This is for either/or Rollies or Timex-eses

Terrible line, but I do like the use of "either/or" in a rap lyric.

Here comes another shitty revive from Doctor C!

"Hip Hop Quotables" by Ludacris was written for this thread. I mean, any track that starts out with "Hi, my name's Ludacris and I'm high as giraffe butts" has to be good. High point:

"The number one chief rocker, clean out your rap lockers
I'm as stiff as a board, y'all more shook than maracas
But my tricks ain't for kids, if you dig em' you'll get smacked
I'll clock ya: I spring forward, you fall back"

Also:

"The competition never just wanna admit that they lost
And that they last about as long as my part in The Wash"

That line hit me at the height of my Marxist phase and I'm still fuzzy on what he means. Is he just suggesting that the mental picture of Che wearing bling evokes conflicting ideologies etc? Or is there something I'm missing?

I've always been partial to jamar of brand nubians verse in all for one

Well, while I reign rhymes pour
You suck it up like a straw and jump on the dancefloor
Cause every time I step in a jam
I make like a door and slam
But then girls try to turn my knob cause I'm a hearthrob
I guess it's just a hazard that comes with the job
Cause everytime I rock a rhyme that shows Jamar is intellectual
Girls want to get sexual
Well I guess I have to cope with being so dope
You want to be me, but can't see me with a telescope
You seek and search but still you can't find
You're weak and it hurts to be deaf dumb and blind
A supreme mind, will take you out of your paralysis
I grip the mic so tight I get callouses
And your analysis, is that the Lord
Rips rhymes into shape with a mic cord
I do it good cause I'm a postive black man
Eating up suckers as if I was Pac Man

Yo, shorty, I've never met someone so beautiful
From your hair follicle to your fingernail cuticle
Struck by the arrow of cupid, this love is deep rooted
