THE SCIENCE OF STUPID
Money is the root of all dumb shit, dumbshit/rap used to be like the root of all fun shit/nowadays it’s more like the root of all dumb shit/money’s like rap, money rap’s like money now/aint it funny how/what you mean, like funny how?/like I’m a clown, like like I amuse you/leave you with a loose tooth in this game of who’s who/where you, you, you, you and you lose/for tryin to be too smooth seems to be the move/but the youth is too cool, too bruised to recuperate/might as well reanimate/deactivate the hand of fate/they use the same tools when they activate the candidates/the Manchurian, take me to your top dog/bonafide case of the opposite of lockjaw/tired of seein locked doors, time to lock horns/tryin to be a pop before the apocalypse pops off/you say: first things first/I say you gotta put the pasta in the pot to boil before you pop it in the pasta sauce/hey, but that’s me, and I was a scientist first before I was an emcee

money is the root of all stupid, stupid/God put his hands on the records and he looped it/fun fact, he played the world’s most heavenly break and spun it back/and here we are like a million years later/white rappers comin out the speakers in your elevators/can’t front man, I wish it was my voice/but I also can’t front like that’s my choice/snap back to reality, uh, there goes enlightenment/uh there goes the Vicodin flyin out the window/starin through the pinhole, now I got the wide lens/friends don’t let friends drive drunk?/define friends/pre-dawn now I’m climbin out the lion’s den/me and my lioness/Manes lookin fly and fresh/we walk eastward, follow the morning star/start from point A, stop when I get my point across/movin on up by my accounts/cause the rhymes bring me closer to the sky like Sky Bounce/no blue balls/and if you show love/you’ve made me so very happy: Lou Rawls…
