Dark Comedy Late Show |
We have a fuckin', uh, incredible show for you tonight |
Pardon me for saying «Fuckin'» on network television— |
I’m not gonna have this job for long—It's Exile! |
It’s me, it’s you. |
These are our guests |
Let’s go. |
Yeah |
I gave up and became a Spotify-er |
Paying myself a fraction of a penny playing «Qualifiers» |
I’m looking up and I’m stuck in a Chucky movie |
Saying yucky shit for chuckles like it’s Lucky Louie |
So somebody better cancel me |
Before I get a chance to screen this ass-naked dance routine |
It’s dark comedy, cold as a soldier’s stare |
I’ve been exposed, so now the LOLs is my over-wear |
And I’m a polar bear with words for a fancy song |
I think it’s the first verse from Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong |
Fuck you, I like the Spin Doctors |
Is that dude Finn’s father or just an impostor? |
The new internet thing’s to be pretend awkward |
Non-prescription, thick-rimmed frames and rented gym lockers |
I’m a rapper, we lament being broke |
All the comics get money, but they spend it on coke |
You can watch us on the newsfeeds |
Fucking y’all’s mornings up |
Until America admits that it likes dogs more than us |
And I can see the Super Bowls of the future: |
The Ferguson blacks vs. Missouri State Troopers |
The privacy rights vs. the personal computers |
Concussion researchers vs. university boosters |
I graduated college, I purchased all the extra books |
I’m supposed to be living in a house with a breakfast nook |
Joke’s on me, though |
All this cheap alcohol and no Coke Zero |
Ashamed how proximity kills yo heroes |
Hey, yo, no poking, I’m still woke, Cee-Lo |
Yeah, It’s all ripped from the headlines |
I’m all outta options like a Crip on the red line |
I got a deadline, before I never had a deal |
Stormed out of business meetings, slipped on mass banana peels |
I should probably shut my stupid mouth |
Shirtless in a fur hat and Vladimir Putin pout |
And North Korea’s got practice missiles |
And I still check Yahoo cause we both got attachment issues |
Our Congress moves just like a cult could |
Invade Iraq 15 times in my adulthood |
And we quit asking for the reasons |
And clicked the Constitution’s terms of service agreements |
We’re dreaming from sundown to high noon |
And woke up by U2 albums all in your iTunes |
And it’s close to a all out war |
With kids being murdered just for being black and tall outdoors |
They respond to demonstrations wearing kevlar briefs |
When the main problem is nobody respects our grief |
They say if it bends it’s funny, if it breaks it ain’t though |
I still got broke pockets and trying to host the Late Show |
Recording it every night, but I don’t know where the tape go |
Homeless fashionistas tell me everything that they know |
Yeah, you got a style |
Tie them fancy sandals up, smile |
You on the NSA’s candid cameras, now |
I’m in a church basement learning Shotokan |
I saw Jesus taking a selfie and I photobombed |
And dude better tag me |
A little recognition makes me do better gladly |
Like this one time when I got booed at a track meet |
In a Hellfyre Club sweater for two letter athletes |
One for regret dreams, one for most suppressed team |
Pressure valve gets released and sprays like a jet stream |
Karl Kani’s and Z Cavaricci’s from Chess King |
K-Mart name brands were the least interesting |
I appreciated presidential speeches on the West Wing |
I never had wet dreams or piloted an X-Wing |
I’m still terrible at being sarcastic black |
My man Exile, he knows what I’m laughing at |
My man Toy-Light, he knows what I’m laughing at |
The studio audience knows what I’m laughing at |
Laughing at all types of shit |
I laugh at, um, CNN. |
I don’t know why |
That might be an issue; |
that might be a problem actually |
It’s not, it’s not a humorous channel, you know what I mean? |
It’s not trying to compete with Comedy Central |
If anything, it’s trying to compete with Headline News |
Which I’m pretty sure is like the same company |
Or it’s trying to compete with, uh, MSNBC kinda |
MSNBC is blue and to the left |
CNN is red, white, and black, and in the middle |
And Fox News is bright red and hollerin', and on the right |
And there’s an elephant and a donkey |
And then an eledonkeyphant. |
A donkaphant |
Uh, a helladonkaphant. |
Shit |
