The Lounge |
| Johnny, get on the piano, let’s do this |
| Thirty years in the business… |
| What’s up? |
| What’s up? |
| I want to welcome everybody to the Lounge |
| You know… |
| You’ve heard of Rapper’s Delight? |
| Well, I’m delightful |
| I got my buddy Asher Roth with me, straight out of the Philadelphia, PA |
| Here’s a little Ham 'N' Eggs coming right at you… |
| Yo, I got a question (What's that?) |
| What’s a rapper look like? |
| Is he tan? |
| Is he black? |
| White? |
| Is he blacked out, high on the crack pipe? |
| Or more the cats that’ll ride on the half-pipe? |
| Don’t want to act like I know about the rap type |
| Cause matter of fact I can’t grasp who rap likes |
| With their cash do they stash for retirement? |
| Or go for finer things like rides and diamonds and??? |
| Another question (What's that?) |
| How do they dress? |
| Are they best cut threads or are they spend less |
| I’m interested, it’s caught my attention |
| Yo, does everybody in rap get arrested? |
| And with they sex, do they all have hoes? |
| Or do some have a girl that they learn and they grow with? |
| I like to know, what makes a rapper? |
| It might be me, but I don’t think it matters |
| What does he look like? |
| Nobody knows? |
| He’s just a rapper in plain clothes |
| When the curtain falls, after the show |
| Where does he go? |
| Nobody knows |
| Yo, now it’s your call, short, fat, or tall? |
| What if he’s a she and not a he at all? |
| Or does a broad have to a be a C at least? |
| Or can it be decreased if she real up on the beat? |
| And is she realer if she raised in the street? |
| Or can they still feel her if she raised in CT? |
| And if they spit do they have to have kids? |
| Or can they have a mom, a dad, and little sis? |
| And in the morning do they have to have grits? |
| Or can they favorite breakfast be eggs Benedict? |
| It makes me think, is there a rapping type? |
| And if so, yo, what’s a rapper like? |
| And do they sell drugs, or go to school? |
| Cocaine or college, tell me what’s the rule |
| I’d like to know, what makes a rapper? |
| It might be me, but I don’t think it matters |
| What does he look like? |
| Nobody knows? |
| He’s just a rapper in plain clothes |
| When the curtain falls, after the show |
| Where does he go? |
| Nobody knows |
| My name’s Asher (Hi, Asher) |
| And those who care to ask, I tell them I’m a rapper (A rapper) |
| But I don’t look like it, not one bit |
| I’m short and thin with some pale-ass skin (That's right) |
| Got one girlfriend and I love her |
| With two sisters, a father, and a mother |
| I guess I’m different, like no other |
| But you can’t judge a book by it’s cover |
| I write about what I feel, see, live |
| My boys like to say I’m the realist it gets |
| Sometimes I feel like Boston gets |
| Maybe flip the script on some ROY-G-BIV |
| Whatever the mood, no matter what I listen to |
| I always do me, never do you |
| I’d like to know, what makes a rapper? |
| It might be me, but I don’t think it matters |
| What does he look like? |
| Nobody knows? |
| He’s just a rapper in plain clothes |
| (Johnny, I’m loving that piano) |
| When the curtain falls, after the show |
| Where does he go? |
| Nobody knows |
| Oh yeah, once again this is Pete Rockwell, Asher Roth |
| The Leopard Lounge, everyone |
| In the back room… gets a little pep in your step |
| As the homies say: this thing is jamming |
| Pour me another Scotch, Margot |
| I’m just loving this right now |
| Thirty years in the business; |
| still banging out the hits |
| This is Pete Rockwell, baby, Asher Roth, signing off |
