Dead On It |
| The man on the radio said |
| James Brown is dead |
| Godfather of soul, lays in his bed, yeh |
| Have you heard what the kids are listening to? |
| Yo, uh |
| Woke up, (got high) |
| Sho’nuff (sky high) |
| Got in the ride turned the radio up |
| Then they said James Brown was dead |
| Is it true? |
| Or am I just doped up |
| Know what? |
| I’m calling my folks up |
| They said he died cause hip hop sucks |
| Ain’t got no soul like a old pair of Chucks |
| It’s about time that somebody stepped up |
| The man on the radio said |
| I regret to report |
| James Brown is dead |
| Just press record |
| Godfather of soul, lays in his bed, yeh |
| Have you heard what the kids are listening to? |
| Hit the studio (check 1, 2) |
| Sho’nuff, yo Cisco turn my headphones up |
| I got a message for the kids of America |
| Play it loud in your hi-fi stereo |
| Wi-fi, download the ringtone |
| California love is your theme song |
| Drop the guitar, le’mme hear the beat y’all |
| Do like Dr. Brown and move your feet y’all |
| The man on the radio said |
| I regret to report |
| James Brown is dead |
| Just press record |
| Godfather of soul, lays in his bed, yeh |
| Have you heard what the kids are listening to? |
| I just got back from a little vacation |
| Grew some wings and flew to Vegas |
| Met a girl, took her 'round the world |
| Form New York, New York to Caesar’s |
| Now I’m sitting in L.A. alone |
| I fell asleep with my blue jeans on |
| I woke up had three missed calls |
| They said — James Brown is gone |
| (James Brown is dead) |
| (I regret to report) |
| (Have you heard what the kids are listening to?) |
| (I regret to report James Brown is dead) |
| (I regret to report James Brown is dead) |
| (Have you heard what the kids are listening to?) |
| And the man on the radio said |
| I regret to report |
| James Brown is dead |
| Just press record |
| Godfather of soul, lays in his bed, yeh |
| Have you heard what the kids are listening to? |
| And the man on the radio said |
| I regret to report |
| James Brown is dead |
| Just press record |
| Godfather of soul, lays in his bed, yeh |
| Have you heard what the kids are listening to? |
