It's About That Time

(album: Shoplifting 4 Jesus - 2011)

Death clock tick tock
Smoking like a cigarette
Every minute, every hour, every day
You mind goes flip flop
Huffing on a cigarette
Ain't it funny how time slips away?

Stop the clock about one
What you gonna do when I give you two
Reasons to get you out your seat, like three
Times I gotta say the same thing, with four
There's no more counting
Latitudes that my buzz is amounting
Official public service announcing
The beat is my prey, and I'm verse pouncing
Lion's roar, the king needs a crowning
You ain't gotta go consult my council
Mister Funk got the beats you can bounce too
I'm a lyrical scoundrel
All you lost ones relax I just found you

Stop the clock...

It's about that time to stop the clock
If you're ready to roll
Let's rock the block
It's about that time to stop the clock
If you're ready to roll
Let's rock the block

Time moved so slowly
In my mind in the morning
In the afternoon my body shuts down
Give me wine, women and song
And I'll party all night long
Let it all blow to the muthafucking dawn

Stop the clock...

It's about that time to stop the clock
If you're ready to roll
Let's rock the block
It's about that time to stop the clock
If you're ready to roll
Let's rock the block

Been down so goddamn long
Been down so goddamn long
Been down so goddamn long
It looks like up to me

Here's some words of advice
From a man who has lived with vice all his life
If you wanna go out on Saturday night and listen to the music and the bright lights
There's one or two things you should do...
First get your head on straight, get it buttoned up the back
Zip up your pants, put on a good pair of shoes, and start walking on downtown, and when you get downtown say hello to the nicest looking girl you see
And say "hey baby, have you ever been to the Galapagos?
You know they've got lizards there that ain't got no eyes"
And if she says "well that comes to me as no surprise"
You say "Hey, why don't we sh-shuffle on down to say listen to old LSD, playing that drum and bass for just you and me"
I'm sure her eyes'll just light up and she'll say "let's go over a partay"

It's about that time to stop the clock
If you're ready to roll
Let's rock the block
It's about that time to stop the clock
If you're ready to roll
Let's rock the block

It's about that time
To stop the clock...
