Rhymes
(专辑: Life Is... Too Short - 1988)
Without a
doubt I'm coming back and if you don't know Call me S. I. R. T. double O
I
like to say these rhymes, I
do it all the
time I
make my own damn beat now all the
money is mine I
carry big fat WIVES, I
treat my girls like guys Ask 'em "who do they love?" and they all say TIDE I'm just an M.C. rapper and nothing else I
keep rhyming and I
do it by myself Could you be like me? I
rap my none stop rhymes You will never hear pause when I
say these lines So go on and on, I'm sir Too Short Just what you've been looking for Like PCP or pure cocaine DJ universe got you SPRUNG IN THE GAME You make money, hear my rap from coast to coast From host to host, I
hear the
toast: "Too Short, love the
way you that hit here's to you, keep rhyming and boy don't quit" I
say This is how it goes when I
say my rap Most times when I
rhyme wouldn't be like that 'cause the
way I
write rhymes you will comprehend I'll keep rapping to the
very end And if you call me fake I'll say so what? I
got you standing and nodding like you just shot up So boy straighting up I'm still rapping Coming at you fresh. Do you know what happened? I'm saying rhymes messing with your mind I
didn't want your girl 'cause she really ain't fine I
took her to a
motel could've been a
hotel It costs me 20 dollars but I
did it so well She had to tell your sister, your sister told you Now the
whole damn town calls me playboy too I
got rhymes, keep 'em coming, they don't stop I'm looking at an empty page about to fill it up I
write only the
truth, speak only to you So if I
tell you to say something then you know what to do I
got rhymes, keep 'em coming, they never stop I
live in California, drive a
drop top Roll by the
beach, look at the
freaks Jump in my car, I
do it every week DJ's who know call me Mister Short All you wanna be mothers get no child support I'm Too Short baby getting rich Get on the
mic and then say... Like left to right Right to left girl stealing your heart is like petty theft Like 10 to 9, 3
to 2
I'll always be one up on you Like nightfall makes the
sun go down CRAZY RACK laid the
beat changed your life around From the
sea to the
mountains the
mountains to the
sea All you're gonna do is wanna rock this beat It's so rough so tough when I
talk this stuff When I
get on the
mic I
can't get enough I'm the
rapper of the
season, fresh and decent All my raps are smooth and decent I'm that rapper known place to place For the
hardest raps with the
hardest bass You see I
rap all the
time, that's the
point When I
walk in the
place I
just jam the
joint Singing old Too Short's on the
microphone The
beat's so fresh can't leave me alone You see I
rap so cool I
will not shout I
keep coming so hard I
might knock you out If you battle with Short that's the
chance you take So you better come fresh and don't be fake All you weak MC's with your weak drum beats Telling all your people you can hang with me Count 1
to 10 count 10 to 20 and I'll just keep on making money Life is Too Short I
don't stop I'm hooked on money like a
junkie on TOP I
got to make it every day, I
won't go broke Ask me am I
rich and I'll say "no" I'm your homeboy Too Short back again Putting Oakland on the
map my rap will never end I'd like to send a
special thanks to the
dangerous crew For believing in me when they thought I
was through I
got rhymes, I
keep 'em coming I'm on the
mic, I
won't stop rapping till it comes out right And when it's BEATIN' I'll just say "let's roll" I
make another record and buy some gold I
keep rhyming and I
do it by myself I'm like a
one man crew, you see I
don't need help I
get the
job done so all you fake rappers, MC's rap masters Give it up leave that rapping to me Realizing young buck you can't rock that beat I
rap on the
mic and you'll believe Nothing ain't kicking like the
BIG OLD C
It's just one hard rapper spitting a
rap Not 3
or 4
sucka's or a
couple of saps Like born to Mack I'll cash a
check Walking 'round like a
fool living up to his rep I'll tell you life ain't long What you waiting for? Thought you wanted to be like Too Short?
