Down Random Jackolantern's Weather All Mixed Up Hive Guns Misdirected Hostility Purpose Loco Brodels Don't Stay Home DLMD Sweet T&P Combo

Down Chill. light on my sight as my ego becomes A funky child with some words on my tongue Be like intake of breath and my mouth gets loose While i scatter my spit i dream of juice Have you ever made out in dark hallways Displayed a kiss that made your day or say Play a track from your record collection It's your mix, congratulations We've changed a lot and then some some Know that we have always been down down And if i ever didn't thank you you Then just let me do it now I bet you light up when we start the show follow me now Very closely because i told you so you know We glow because we throw sun rays We be freaky and we wanna stay CHORUS Lightning strikes yo we be in that violent force of light Guaranteed to turn it out as bad as dolemite 'Cuz we're dope kidchange like a chameleon And the channel whenever that wack show real world is on You know we dazzle likeghetto box boomin' battles Rattle inside your head feel redeemed like cola bottles Fall in love with you teachers on the wax We are self made check the technique 311 in LA CHORUS Keep my feet on the ground Keep my head in the clouds Electrified by the sound Comes from the down And CHORUS Random Sound boy proceed to blast into the galaxy Go back rocket man into the sky you'll see Hear it all the time, come back rewind Aliens are watching up in the sky Sound boy proceed to blast into the galaxy Sound boy when you come round Sound boy won't you stay No one gonna harm you The all want you to play I watch th birds of prey that Hunt the canyon below my house Looking for a meal like a lizard or a mouse I wonder if they appreciate the setting like me To control your own direction choose to be free And i reserve the right to be as trite as i want And you can lick but don't bite I toss you here to vermont I kick it lickety split And hand it to the man in the tan van And as for you and your crew i don't hate you Peace is my priority 'cuz marley said for sure-ity Just what do you think i'm doin'? I'm not just here for screwin' Yo and if it's sore take care of it Perhaps from too much stucking But anytime your aware of it then keep on fucking You know we cool Hey hey isn't that random? When we come bout people get ready Hey hey isn't that random, gonna freak do it national Sound boy gonna rock you People rock steady Hey hey isn't that random? To be the one who has it all is not that hard And i'll be that type of dude in a funky car I dream of a suit that will fit my rhyme When i recognize my girl from a former life I love it when the only sound that i hear Is your infectious laughter I will hear you again in 800 years If i'm still lucky Go north on outpost then take a left on mull-holland To me that's where i like it and macapa drive is callin' I get up to the sun and then i stretch out Beginning to look like summer And i'm down with no doubt. (swing) CHORUS I break a silly peace for offering Rap weasel then i'm boffering I'd give you an exclusive on my playlist The thought and styles i kick are from a radom hat pick That's why most radio will never play this tell 'em again Me a rude boy from omaha nebraska Sick as a porno flick yet gold as precious laugter Many don't agree but we can't care about that 'Cuz we're never gonna wear the old hat. spoken Jackolantern's Weather Well i beat a bad rap when i skip a soul trap Just trippin' and laughin' at the crap Dap is what i get the best skins that i hit You know we rock the fuckin' joint and we split Singin' an ryhmin's what i'm better for When i describe i'm a scribe with a metaphor I use a simile lightly 'cuz that shits played The common way most ryhmes are made, ya know I rock like this i flow like that But all those comparisons are just that Kickin' different styles i'll be right here Today, tomorrow, next week and next year I always say what i feel and that is a promise Nothing in life is above being honest Sauna is cool compared to being on stage But that's how it's gotta go in the stone age The fame in my game i name rapture Like a polished rock i'll make it shine for sure Word is that i've travelled become unravelled I been around the world baby gimme an apple I'll be your boogie man rather than son-of-sam What i am is what i am Though we don't have too long to love a day a night We only love those who,love us right back The kid is smart the kid is clever Stompin' in jack-o-lantern's weather Backpack strapped 'cuz the world is cold Headphones pumpin' don't ya know The kid is smart the kid is clever Stompin' in jack-o-latern's weather Rocks his hood and playes it mellow While maple leaves change into yellow And oh shit damn honey at it again Tryin' to beat my high score since the age of ten See my high score flash on the back glass I was malcontented doug in gifted class Now heres the deal we came to heal we gonna rock in rio Oh no it's not a joke it's how we feel Put to test like a sugar ray scientist I'm always dancing in my sunday best I'm betting on my bliss and my path is lit' see The microphone is live and i'm rockin' my body Smooth like reggie miller in an airborne freeze frame Funky like the kung-fu that can put you to shame CHORUS I'm like hey wait a minute Give a check on two then i' ready to begin it With a boom boom bap coming outta your trunkies Give a fat shout out to the phunk junkeez Striken like a cancer taken chances But i love to see the girl windin' like the belly dancer Standin' up front with a tight stomach showin Me on stage singin, flowin We just kickin' it live we just kickin' it live 'Cuz if you can't kick it live you gonna die 'Fraid so punk so quit talkin' junk You need a live show like a ball player needs a dunk All Mixed Up You've got to trust your instinct And let go of regret You've got to bet on yourself now star 'Cause that's your best bet Watch me now with a wicked and wild and I said We come with the funky style That gets us known for the show And we'll mix the hip hop reggae if we say it is so And fuck the naysayers cause they don't mean a thing 'Cause this is what style we bring Now it's morning but last night's on my mind There's something I need to get off my chest And no matter what may come to shine The dream will always be mine All mixed up you don't know what to do Next thing you turn around and find the person is you Thought a freak might be the thing But the first could be the last so just get off your ass All mixed up you don't know what to do Next thing you turn around and find the person is you Thought a freak might be the thing But you know this will pass so just get off your ass You've got to trust your instinct and let go of regret You've got to bet on yourself now star 'Cause that's your best bet Watch me now with a wicked and wild and I said Sick sick bit got to have it Like bustin' in on a session but you got to call it quits Sick sick bit just can't quit Fact that you don't even know makes it fully legit Now it's morning but last night's on my mind There's something I need to get off my chest And no matter what may come to shine The dream will always be mine You keep me coming, That is a gal that'l kill 'dem stunning, Keep me coming, That is a gal that'l kill 'dem stunning, Keep me coming, That is a gal that'l kill 'dem stunning, Keep me coming, That is a gal that'l kill 'dem stunning, You make me nervous throught dry My brain is empty don't know why But I saw you doing something Which is really truly nothing But you could bust me out all day Many moons since first I saw you Many moons since first we did the do Many moons since first I saw you Many moons since first we did the do And why did I try when I knew it was no and Why did I try when I saw it was so But save it for late we should just let it skate Cause the waiting feel is fine Hive Coming like a nightmare word like I'm gonna go for it Fuckin' around what ya got to show for it? Let it be know that I'm in the zone And whatever I need I just pick up the phone 'Cuz I'm true with it and you're new with it I just swing the thing and then I'm through with it I don't need friends to act like foes 'Cuz I'm Nick Hexum the one who knows 'Cuz it takes two and we swings better than you Then it's time for the dub so we roll out the club And you know just what I do I'm hitting in the freak mode Puttin' on a load sippin' on a guinny Then lo and behold una vision from bottom to top And I just can't stop 311 show them the air is rarified But you don't give a damn 'cuz the groove is hellafied Grew up punk, listen to funk I'm a hyper type of fella that does not touch junk You're the back of the pack and the bottom of the stack That's waht you get when you're steady talkin' shit Not goin' for self that shit is on the shelf It's 95 and we go for the hive Listen up this you're gonna bump to this And if I'm feelin' mean I'm gonna clutch my fist Now when I say mean, I mean I'm gonna rock it You're gonna find out kid I'm bout to shock it When I'm on I'm gone I hear the beat that spawns The way we freak it and we kick up a storm The day we turn to pop the show will stop So feel the beat and get lost now Back to part 2 the hard way we play Sublime on time to all the fans I'm SA And if you don't know I say check the show Do what you got to on the dance flo Some say the style is wack but I say fuck that Get the hell back and watch us rock the set We cast the mold bust it cold explode Megatrendsetters known around the globe Friends takin' you where you never been We done what we wanted craftin' poems You can rock there is a glow around you Lose control holmes just like we do Hard to obtain brotha' what's my name Mad to find unlike ya mamma and your masquerade I drive a mach-1 no dashboard Jesus I hear voices say that's Doug Martinez You're all up in my mix like fuckin' betty crocker You think you're playing me but actually you're a jocker You bad mouth me bitch man you givin me juice It aint nothin' but a party everybody get loose Notice what I don't do when stress steps to me Whatever your complaint so sue me I say fuck the naysayers and keep goin Gotta do what I gotta do to get the people glowin' So let everybody gather the more the better I represent the traveler him he's a shredder At ease with yourself and don't try to please me I'm just here today then quickly I'm out On the town one light I'm a glow worm For several hours wiggle jiggle like I'm a huge sperm Can't appreciate a brothers love of funky music You think I'm a silly rabbit 'cuz my style has tricks Of the way I feel now I just got to rock The music be poppin through me like electric shocks I think and blink and I wink but that shits not tiny 'Cuz in a blink of an eyelash you will not find me You're the back of the pack and the bottom of the stack That's what you get when you're steady talkin' shit Not goin' for self that shit is on the shelf 'Cuz it's 95 and we go for the hive Guns Here comes the thunder down under We're natural wonders Night falls when we leave all you feel is the hunger Suprises people of all shapes and sizes Dig on the decade and realize it's all funkay No matter this rude boy still got that swagger My ears have heard all these crews but we're badder Interracial, special, positive beings I am i be a cool awakening It's gettin hectic the metrics the body dresseselectric Everybody in worn out blue jeans or tacky This is the city we've reached we've come to Go unrecognized on the corner or make moves All the lights are red all the poets dead A familiar nightmare appears in my head Times are changin' myself i'm rearrangin' Dream eight-thousand-five-twelve blazin' Born to act out, born to act out Paranoid with a gat Born to act out, born to act out Think you know where it's at Born to act out, born to act out But you're lookin' like a sissie Born to act out, born to act out Guns are for pussies I'm not from philly but some say i'm blunt That's just the way i am and i'm not going to front And yes i took a trip to find out about the ways of big City seedy bars and drugs that make you feel shitty Pretty older women in skirts conversation frisky Stinking cigarettes and plenty of bourbon whiskey Sad classic music on the jukebox of doom Hollywood blvd. barfly frolic room Tomb of lost souls some beyond salvage Some just having fun opening steam valvage I was one becoming the other hellbent to discover Had to pull up the reigns or else smother Take it brother all the way and then you're scared Don't want to be unprepared You're getting paranoid And then guns are shared You guys think that you're hard But you're in fear of being harmed I fear no man and i'm unarmed Born to act out, born to act out Paranoid with a gat Born to act out, born to act out Think you know where it's at Born to act out, born to act out But you're lookin' like a sissie Born to act out, born to act out Guns are for pussies Misdirected Hostility Not I'm not the type to just act like I know Puttin on an angle putting on a show Speaking on nothing makes you a stunt I'll tell you right here yo I don't front I cross the t's and skip nonlegitimacies Or else please I cannont handle all the negative vibe merchants Is that all you have in you per chance So much angst an pain it's so wack You should take a tip from the one

stolen bikes on the blacktopborn to sing a lyric Immaculately concepted No strain in your game if your game is respected Come as you are radio star Drown out the hatred with a rhyme An electric guitar dispatched when rap shattered The glass of radio access May we turn some soul on their rythmless dances You know the time and they'l know the scoop They'l say it was a rhyme and a beat of a rap group Your rhymes have been outmoded Your rhymes have been outmoded Your rhymes have been outmoded Your rhymes have been outmoded Your rhymes have been outmoded So just quityourbellyachin' You're saying that your tortured Give me a fuckin break and Maybe take out the source Of your disparing what do I mean Kick the fuckin heroin I speak from experience Because I didn't see clearly once Acting like I

becomes serene I'm glad your here i have no fear We trip the 'shrooms fantastic And shit gets drastic elbow pull and kick We trip the 'shrooms fantastic 'N sit gets drastic, check it out Right now my brain is fragile But you seem so agile we'll amke it in tea And we'll see what there is to see CHORUS Make an instrumental add a little vocal Take to the stage and make the people go loco Make an instrumental add a little vocal Take to the stage and make the people go loco Boom boom you got the spinning of the room Quite right you got the breaking of the light Boom boom you got the spinning of the room Quite right you got the breaking of the light Ad the sun and the moon and the spinning of the room It does to my sight what the prism does to light You're quicker than me ridiculous see You come follow me get lobotomy You're quicker than me ridiculous see You come follow me get lobotomy CHORUS Make an instrumental add a little vocal Take to the stage and make the people go loco Make an instrumental add a little vocal Take to the stage and make the people go loco Make an instrumental add a little vocal Take to the stage and make the people go loco Make an instrumental add a little vocal Take to the stage and make the people go loco Brodels Ooh you know we pepper you With a sonic assault side step a you I cannot think of a better way That we could celebrate freedom Than make up a set of goals and cold beat 'em See dumb verbal tags like audio spaghetti Give a shout to the one they call yeti I bet he put the cabash on any foes whatsoever Like original brodel Trevor Positive vibe merchant grandson of Lord Buckley Scotish ralston shows up if you're lucky Ad raspler the sweed a friend in deed He's keeping an eye on the other guy's gred These are 311 characters I dubbed everyone The story ain't over but my rhyme is done It was the year that I first touched ground So I grabbed the microphone and I got down Just like James Brown gather round of our sight and sound Pound for pound we throw down rather profound I'll put you in another world I can't hear you Like having phone sex with a deaf girl No doubt we got the jams that'll smack ya I penned three books of lyrics 2 for action 1 for backup 'Cuz I'm a cold rockin' brother got transistor tunes And it feels real good to get close to you The brodels is the nazz and the nazz knows where it's at The brodels is the nazz who knows a cat who can feed a cat The goal is to be a poet and a carpenter To be one who loves to be one who works The nazz not something that can be given The brodel is inside you it comes from within When I feel into the sea When the world came and kissed me Transformed my shit told the shark I was a dolphin Swam quick funny though Parranahs chilled and laughed at The way that I took off my polka dots on top of that The wales know I'm quick watch out And I get funky fresh as for the fishes I'm lit luminous I'm not nouveau techno I glow like a glacial In skin that swims faster than speed I am I be dropped out of nothing I will return to nothing Rotate my style my rhyme my way magician of a rythm Lover of animals damn I wanna hear 'em Aquatic my way I got soul shape Well I'm 6 foot 3 and like Mohammed Ali I float like a butterfly and sting like poison ivy Drive a 69 lincoln suicide doors Around the town I'm slinking fat subs of course we're the greatest show on earth You know we turn it out daily In and out of town like Baarnum and Bailey I know that is a simile but I couldn't resist From Solomon Roadie for the PJ's I don't think he'll be pissed I eat a cobb salad, smoked fish, duck, or clam chowder Chill with indica and Guinness Steer clear of white powder I run into my brother give him a pound and a yodel They know my word is bond talkin' bout the brodels The brodels is the nazz and the nazz knows where it's at The brodels is the nazz who knows a cat who can feed a cat The goal is to be a poet and a carpenter To be one who loves to be one who works The nazz not something that can be given The brodel is inside you it comes from within And we're fresh dude just check my man P He said I will not muddle my mind with impertinency Lost a lot in vegas plays a lot of Sega Saw a phrase that he likes and put it on his leg And we're fresh dude just check my man D he said Comin' in ruff and tuff all systems are tweakin' People all over the world they must be thinkin' All the shit that we kickin' our shoes must be stinkin' Don't Stay Home Life could slip away in absent minded numbness I'm only sayin this 'cuz I wish for the best When you always stay in self-incarceration I thinks it's such a shame Don't stay home this time no don't stay home If he don't have to he don't want to Don't stay home this time no don't say no Oh how I'd like to diffuse your time bomb anger It's screaming danger danger this kind of world Don't care if you're home so you better get some Don't stay home this time no don't stay home If he don't have to he don't want to Don't stay home this time no don't say no Everything I'm sayin' you can dismiss Because I sat alone on this past Christmas I deserved to be alone But I guess I should have gone home Hey don't break the mold kid just eat around it Yeah that's what I did I'll be running around the block For no apparent reason Somethin' you'll catch me doin' in any season Gotta break a sweat man gotta go bust out Biddy by by by by Good-bye to the drout, yea Don't stay home this time no don't stay home If he don't have to he don't want to Don't stay home this time no don't say no Don't stay home this time no don't stay home If he don't have to he don't want to Don't stay home this time no don't stay home DLMD Don't let me down, don't let me down again Don't let me down, don't let me down again Don't let me down, don't let me down again Don't let me down, don't let me down again Swelled up eye's oh my the girl got beat And the stupid mother fucker who made you think so That punk is a coward let that be told I hear voices in the night that are electric He kicks theshit out of her because he's heartless She won't leave she has low self esteem He's got gravitational pull Sucks her body till her heart and her limbs grow cold Hang in there use your head How can i love you after you're dead Hang in there keep trying How can i love you after dying Here's what you got to tell him I'm thinking of a picture that's keeping me in stitch You're causing me a mental glitch 'Cause jealousy is such a bitch I hereby emancipate myself from that You can consider yourself free to flirt and chat With whoever you want It should have always been that way The way that you flant the way that you play My mind is blank slate i'm pretending you're erased You cannot let me down when i cannot see your face CHORUS Ode to a beat up girl, i know you're out there Stronger than you think, stand up if you care Get up off the ground, don't let me down Get up off the ground, don't let me down CHORUS And you, i'm a let you pass without kicking you're ass Because i'm above it you hurt someone i love It takes two to make a thing go right and that's trite But one just to sneak and weasel through the night If you hurt her again i'll fuck you up If you hurt her again i'll fuck you up, fuck you up If you hurt her again i'll fuck you up If you hurt her again i'll fuck you up, fuck you up Sweet Take a chance n something star you gotta All the live long day If i had to name one thing would data Be hard pressed to say You can say that i'm gushy At least you know what i think I know that i'm lucky i know you're on the brink You got it good good good you got it good so good You make up ridiculous words Which mean exactly nothing I know just what you mean and that's the funny thing It's understood it's understood Buddy buddy buddy i know why you wander Through the sweetness on the ground The sweetness of the flowers You make your way on a cloudy day You've got to move The world you prove is too sweet yeah We parted much too soon i know but that's how it goes There's someone better out there for you and me Can't wait to get on the road and feel the shows And be like phenomenon 1 and 2 and 3 I don't mean to brag and i don't mean to boast But i'm the guy could that give you the most It's good good good it's understood CHORUS T & P Combo People sing about the coming of spring But what is comin' down around it's snow or it's rain It's insane and i'm still in the same gang The way the weather act's it's a shame ok Badder behavior in our shit is flavor Grandiose endeavors yes the quest is greater Make no mistake i know the time and i wake I slip only when p-nut gets me baked from that shake Yeah you can't fuck with this You're walter middy don't take it as a dis But the fantasy has got to end this minute I had a fucking dream and yo now i'm in it I've been at many function but i know i'm about the function If someone brings you down keep punching We bunched in a little house where conditions got squalid But where we at now - solid I concur time it slurs and it blurs The vision like a drug and yo it's the word How absurd deliver us from nerds And funky 40 oz glass littered

Zooma zooma zooma yeah we got the boom Blowin' up the spot so so give us room We prowl sometimes we howl hysterical When we take the stage see a miracle I realize today nothing is more vestigial Than

scotch Botch this and i'll regret it no that's not what i'm saying Remember this instead i'm staying We played in a little house where conditions got squalid But where we at now - solid We hauled a van with a rv that was a bad call It all went up in flames but i haven't seen it all Homey steps to me and say hey where ya goin' Oh just headin' back to where i done my growin' If you must go
