| Man, all these problems in our world today
|
| I just don’t know what to do, man
|
| If it ain’t one thing, it’s another
|
| Sell a million copies? |
| They put me on a magazine cover
|
| I sell one or two, they claim that I’m played out
|
| My girl nags me at home, so, I shoulda stayed out
|
| I buy a new car, it runs out of gas
|
| In school, I was always gettin' kicked out of class
|
| Mom would say, «Be like your older brother!»
|
| If it ain’t one thing it’s another
|
| You know what I’m sayin' man?
|
| I mean, all these problems
|
| Let me tell ya 'bout the time when I — Well, let me break it down for ya
|
| Prince Markie Dee
|
| Picked up my date at eight in a happy mood
|
| Drove to City Island for some seafood
|
| $ 3.99 for all you can eat
|
| Shrimp galore, bon apetit
|
| We ate hearty 'till we couldn’t eat
|
| Went to the Marriott, paid for a suite
|
| She was anxious even more that me
|
| And, man, I got busy as a bumblebee
|
| When we were done, I drove her home
|
| Proceeded to my house, all alone
|
| It started rainin', I was playin' Bobby Brown
|
| I missed my exit, so, I circled around
|
| And that’s when it happened, I didn’t get far
|
| A pole jumped in front of my car
|
| I broke my leg, man, do I stutter?
|
| If it ain’t one thing, it’s anuddah, bruddah
|
| Kool Rock Ski
|
| On tour for so long that it wears me down
|
| I’ve been to every city and every small town
|
| And, after a while, things start to ache
|
| I want my body to move, that d-mn thing won’t shake
|
| Then, one night, the last date on tour
|
| From that morning my throat was sore
|
| I started gettin' worried, it wound’t be long
|
| 'Cause the way my throat was hurtin', it would soon be gone
|
| Then, wouldn’t you know? |
| You know it, yes
|
| I tried to say somthin' but I was voiceless
|
| Showtime came, I had to lip-synch
|
| It got so wild that I couldn’t think
|
| The show was done, a doctor checked my health
|
| I spent the night all by myself
|
| Man, what a bummer, what did I stutter?
|
| If it ain’t one thing, it’s anuddah, bruddah |
