Luck of Lucien
(专辑: The Anthology - 1999)
[Verse 1: Q-Tip] Brother, brother, brother, Lucien, you're like no other. Listen very close 'cause I
don't like to boast. Instead, I'll tell the
tale of a
French who prevailed Through the
Mr. Crazy Rabbits who were always on his tail. [?] on sale, your rumour starts to wail. Get caught with stolen goods and you will go to jail. If you go to jail, then who will pay the
bail? They'll put you back to France on a
ship with a
sail. Escargot, Lucien, you eat snails. (Hey yo Tip, what's wrong with snails?) From the
Zulu nation, from a
town called Paris, Came to America to find liberty. Instead of finding pleasure, all you found was misery, But listen, Lucien, you have a
friend in me. Oh, luck luck will drive you butt baddy. Next time you get some wheels, make it a
Caddy. In terms of doing good, I
know you wish you really could, But listen, brother man, I
really think you can. Succeed with the
breed of the
brothers on your back. It's the
creme de la creme, and you can bounce with that. It'll take a
minute, rice, so take my advice. Trust in us, and thus you trust in your life. Lucine, Lucien, Lucien, Lucien. You should know! [Verse 2: Q-Tip] Are you ready, Lu? This one is for you, Coming from a
true-blue, fits like a
shoe. Como esta usted or como talle vu? Lucien, I'll leave it up to you. Voulez vous (vous). Endez vous (vous). Coo-coo (coo). Les poo-poo (poo) Watch that lass, gonna backlash fast. Can you get a
grip on the
crackhead dip? Sold you a
paper bag, guess he saw you coming, VCR from a
neck-bone bumming, $10 brother, he was humming and strumming, Only had 20, he was living like ya slumming, Gave him the
money, well, I
thought that was something, Looking like a
kid who was lost in crumbing. Don't worry about a
thing, I
won't get specific. This is a
song that is long and prolific. Think of the
stuff that I
said if you can. Figure it out, compute, understnad. No problemo, I'll help you with your demo If you go to the
store for me. Lucien, I'm just kidding. You should know! [Verse 3: Q-Tip] You gotta get a
grip on the
missions you'll be taking, Not so much the
mission, but you got crazy ignition. Sure, the
sugar-babies wanna give you a
chance With the
French "savoir faire" and the
sexy dance, But is she really fly, or is she a
guy? I
won't ask why, 'cause I
know that you try. You try too hard, is that the
answer to the
riddle? Instead of doing so much, why don't you do just a
little? Boy, what a
cad, I
guess we shouldn't treat him bad. In fact, it would be nice if we understood him like A
case of positioning the
feet in the
shoes, Sympathetic reason in the
case of the
blues. Lucien is blue, even though he's really brown. I
had to make the
sound, his life is too profound. On the
up-and-up, he's something like a
little pup, Young and naive, it's hard to believe. As long as you're strong, you can quest with the
questers, Jolly like a
jumping bean or a
jester. Lucien, Lucien, Lucien, Lucien. You should know!
