Brief History

歌詞

This is a brief history of nearly everything about me See I was born a light man with fight man, no plans Seven pounds, six ounces Italian Bohemian My mother's name was Marianne Midwest did best with the soon to be hairy chest At the age of two I was left at the counter of a pharmacist See dad, never proud of this Cuz he spent his time catching fish with me His name is Bill, B-Ill soon to be super chill Dad was a bull, ya see, Diesel engines he would pull for 40 years Always calling mom "Dear" and "Marribelle" Automatic weapons he would sell To other men half as brave as him Many times I said I'm from Cleveland and this is true, ya'll But it's hard to represent a place I hardly ever go through See I was turned away from the cold weather place So at the age of 24 California I would stray like a cat Now that's where I'm at Making beats and writing dope tracks And dope is never where it's at Trust me, I've tried that See I almost destroyed everything Just to feel my heart sing And sing is what I do To try to connect with you Back to the next line When I wrote my first line New York was the best time Without even a time-line See I dropped outta school to be cool with the new fool Loving the city life Still can't get it right Big Nick's pizza will give you chronic diarrhea Twenty bucks a week, what a treat to be incomplete Went to the American Music Academy, started smoking pot A lot. What was I talking about? Oh yeah, you shoulda seen my ass in black tights in ballet class Back then my name was Bushwick Like the Ghetto Boys Dad called me Bozzledorf Bought me tons of He-Man toys And I still have every one So my kids can one day have some Perform is what I do Since the age of nine But now it sounds sweet [?] gangsta through your alpines But there was a minute I stared at life through a clown's nose Learned how to juggle And do tricks with your panty-hoes [?] hire Barney We had to call him the purple dinosaur You never saw Sally the Camel's humps Rock before Did singing telegrams Where I stripped to my underpants When life was minimal I bought tons of animals 3 big alligators, snakes, a ferret An iguana named Boner, A chinchilla and a parrot What next?... Never took to drinking But almost lost it to tweaking Now creation is all I'm thinking about I love to shout It gets my point across Shoulda used more dental floss From all the teeth I've lost Still into girls but I'm married to the music Often think Why'd we choose this? God I'd hate to lose it You see, I sorta hate my voice But I got one to rock one And sometimes pretty's ugly And bad equals bad-ass Like you writing songs fast Don't bother with the aftermath Bob Schneider told me to write even if its shitty The worst thing that happens is that you practice being witty And witty is what we do Don't be a dick and stay true to this gig Its just a little time we got and make it count And believe in us. This is a brief history Of nearly everything about me One more time This is a brief history Of nearly everything about me
