Tinseltown
Billy Woods

[Verse 1: Billy Woods]


They used to clown the kid like

Scared money don't make money

Now they doing bids right?

That's why conventional wisdom don't do nothing for me

Marvin Harrison passed the eye in the dungeon

Quiet ones be the shooters

He who dares wins

We down here with the losers

They robbed that white boy cause this ain't Hoosiers

And stay looking for crack like jewellers

Pressin'

Like army recruiters

Maneuver underwater, Afghani in the scuba

Four Nigerians one computer

Travailler

Middle of the day

Steak for two

Peter Luger

AK47 with the cheese

Smoke Gouda

Only priorities is right now

The near future

Optimistic?

Every morning between my first sip of coffee

Last digit on my scratch off ticket

Middle passage I had to sell rations

The rest got scurvy and rickets

Just another [?] from the edge of irrelevance

I been on that Ralph Ellison

Nowadays flow meticulous

Ridiculous embellishments


[Hook]

They said it's easy money


But I just can't trust it

She said I love you honey

But I just can't trust it

He said those his boys, not to worry

Just can't trust it

They said come through, everything lovely

Just can't


[Verse 2]


Pedal to the metal

Enthusiastically peddle crack over instrumentals

Only to backpedal when them [?] come knockin'

Any resemblance to real events is merely coincidental

Motherless child, Hansel & Gretel

Abandoned in the ghetto

Fear not a wicked witch

But a clever Geppetto

Have him holding a bag on stage

In stilettos

Separating Canaanites from they shekels

Nigga pennies add up

If you the neighborhood Gordon Gekko

Wouldn't nickels of that sour crunch like a good pickle?

More flights than Biggles

But at tonight's show we play Don Rickles

Salt on your game, kosher

For putting his name too low on the poster

Drunk as a fish harping that no respect danger field

After last drink, ticket argument settles

Jump behind the wheel and it's pedal to the medal


[Hook]
