Stinkin' Rich/Buck65 - This is a Joke lyrics

Artist: Stinkin Rich/Buck65 Album: Weirdo Magnet Song: This is a Joke I don't know what real is, instead I'm a keep it linear I'm broke in pieces, though my body's getting skinnier. But um I know some kids who want to hear them drums and plucking strings The Famous Players from the days with all them f**ing things I got static in more ways than seventeen For DJ so & so and plus for the grafitti scene The sh**ty kids who don't like being told the way to dress I ain't even gonna say the names but you can probably guess No free publicity for stupid mister you-know-what The sheep in the meadow they try to diss cause of my hair cut I don't look nothing like the fashion pages' angry faces Cause I do my shopping in the second hand clothing places That's all I can afford, not that the money's gone But yo there's more important things for me to spend the dollars on Especially vinyl, to be taken home and later played After I put groceries in the fridge and all the bills are paid Yeah, I'm making records how I think that they're supposed to sound A little deeper than what most people think is underground I'm not the type to drop spaghetti sauce and yell a slogan Flipping beats for people dancing in the clubs and voguin' Nah, this is dedicated to the dirty rats and scum Out there in gutter pipes, that know just where I'm coming from There's a better place for us to go an chill And be like doing our own type of thang-thang and still... This is a joke But many rappers wouldn't know This is a joke But most producers wouldn't know This is a joke A lot of DJs wouldn't know This is a joke I got your daughter sellin' watermelon Still rated hardcore X and still not carin' Down with the television set and Gil Scott Heron We got more important issues to address and settle Johnny Rockwell on the wheels that are made of metal Getting sick and taking home all the contest money The other challengers are wack and I think it's funny I take time out of my day for long distance calls Even though the phones are tapped and flies are on the walls I got like stress levels out of control because of cold-hearted Snakes and backstabbers are out here acting retarded Yeah, I know I shouldn't let them get the best of me Cause when it comes to making it happen, I got the recipe Soup or nothing, I'm dropping old fashion science For the new recruits we got regular clients I'm guarantee'd to always hit the hammer on the nail I took a test to become an MC and didn't fail In fact, now I got the qualifications for me to teach And people come and pay to sit and listen to me give a speech Now I'm on the corner, beatboxing and whatnot All I want is to be able to be on a record label f** that! I don't even like the way them people look They wanna brainwash me, I don't like the way them people look! Back in the days with ba**, the excitement lasted I left the fellas hoping all the girls were flabbergasted This is a joke And many people still don't know This is a joke The boys and girls will never know This is a joke The senior citizens will never know This is a joke I got your daughter sellin' watermelon
