3. "Cop That Shit" - Timbaland And Magoo.

(It's about not stealing music, but that technically makes it about stealing music)

Take me across the water
cause I need some place to hide
I done the ranchers daughter
And I sure did hurt his pride

Well, theres a
Hundred miles of desert
Lies between his hide and mine
I dont need no food
And no water, lord
cos Im running out of time

Fightin, killin, wine and women
Gonna put me to my grave
Runnin, hidin, losin, cryin
Nothing left to save but my life

Stood on a ridge
And shunned religion
Thinking the world was mine
I made my break and a big mistake
Stealin, when I
Shouldve been buyin

All that fightin, killin
Wine and those women
Gonna put me to an early grave
Runnin, hidin, losin, cryin
Nothing left to save but my life, life...

So I stood on a ridge
And shunned religion
Thinking the world was mine
I made my break and a big mistake
Stealin, when i
Shouldve been buyin
I was stealin
When I shouldve been buyin
I was stealin
When I shouldve been buyin
Stealin, when i
Shouldve been buyin ..
I was stealin ...

Wilco, "Somebody Else's Song"

and, in the same vein, maybe 20% of all the raps in existence accuse other MCs of biting the speaker's rhymes.

Madness: "Deceives the Eye"


In the earliest days of my shoplifting career
You could safely say I was filled with fear
It was nail-biting work from the very start
But several quick successes soon gave me heart

After a while I could pick and nick with ease
Some shirts some trousers and a few LPs
No one ever stopped me, they didn't seem to care
It sometimes seemed to me there was no one there

Neil Young, Borrowed Tune

"I'm singin' this borrowed tune
I took from the Rolling Stones,
Alone in this empty room
Too wasted to write my own"
