Ladies and gentlemen, it is with the greatest pleasure that I present: Niggy Tardust.nnNiggyTardust: Grippo King, philosopher, and artist. nDownright to the marrow, he’s the arrow through the heartless. nSunlight in the afternoon, his shadow travels furthest. nWoven through the heart of doom, he’s bursting through the surface. Hardly nervous, suffice to say, he understands his purpose: nThreshold King of everything, a comical absurdist. nSometimes when he talks he sings, yet keeps his high notes wordless. nSing along when Niggy sings. Without you he’d be worthless, homeless, Earth-less. nVenus Hottentot, up in the circus. nFreak Show! Here him speak so properly, ‘cause every word is measured against meaning. nProbably scheming to unlearn us. nDon’t you call him by his name! White people call him ‘Curtis’.nnWhen I say Niggy, you say nuthin. Niggy. nNiggy. nWhen I say Niggy, you say nuthin. Niggy. n“Nuthin”. nShut up.n(X2)nn“Put your mama on the phone”. You can’t say that, girl, Niggy’s grown. nWhat your daddy gonna do? He can’t deny what he knows true. nWhat the preacher gonna say? Preacher can’t shit, girl, the preacher’s gay. nWhat your granny gonna do? She can’t deny the truth. nHey! NiggyTardust, here to stay! nPaint him on your lunchbox or your thermos, for a fee. nYou might win the chance to hang with Niggy for a day! nSide effects may include simply doing what you say. nHey! NiggyTardust, no guitar. nGhetto Gothic millionaire. A super-duper star! nSide effects may include simply being who you are. you are yourself, my darling dear, and where never a niggar.nnWhen I say Niggy, you say nuthin. Niggy. nNiggy.nWhen I say Niggy, you say nuthin. Niggy. n“Nuthin”. nShut up.n(X2)nnSo what y’all Niggas wanna do? nI’m standing at the Pearly Gates so you can run and get your crew. nI’m knockin once then I’m bustin’ through, with some gold Diadoras and a shirt that reads, “Do unto who?”. nWhat y’all Niggas wanna do? nElevate the race or love these other mutherfuckers too? nThe choice is yours, which means it’s up to you. nBut how can I love myself if I can’t love you?nnNiggyTardust…
