Transitions & Eras
Haiku D'Etat

feat. Busdriver

Produced By: Fat Jack



[Hook]

Transitions and eras

Ambitions of circa

Pictures from our heritage

And images of how we lived

Rhythm of the jazz poetry and soul that we give

(x2)


[Verse 1: Aceyalone]

I'd like to introduce you to the new

Haiku D'Etat is raw

I hope that all of y'all can come aboard

And join the sons of cool

We're going to the moon

I'd like to get you more acquainted with the

Thing that we do best

To give the gift of music to the world

And never blow our cool

We're going to the moon


[Bridge: Aceyalone]

Completely reborn

The newest crew in all mill-enium baby

I'm completely reformed

I'd like to introduce you to the new

Haiku D'Etat is raw

I hope that all of y'all can come aboard

And join the sons of cool

We're going to the moon

Blue moon


[Hook]


[Verse 2: Abstract Rude]

Nighttime let's go see what's jumpin'

Ladies dressing all vintage

Like it's back in the day

In they hat & they gloves

And when they walk hips sway

Dancing like Shug Avery

Causing they shimmys to shake

We got our suits on as sharp as can be

Tip the valet throw him the key

Go ahead and park it for me

What's this another masquerade?

I'm in their e-mail database

So they invited me

On this Poseidon adventure in a cabaret

And I had to take them up on their offer

A juke joint like this

It doesn't happen that often

Won't be open that long

Before they call in the coppers

So let's jam all night

Until they break in and stop us

Piano playing my favourite tune again

Now what it takes is upright bass properly placed


Rim shot cymbal tap and a hi hat

Provided by the band in the back

And Fat Jack is good for handling that


[Hook]


[Verse 3: Myka 9]

We're on the freedom train so don't call me George

I'm the conductor in charge saying all aboard

There's a baby grand in the diner car by the bar

Tailor made and top grade everybody sharp

Slick hair making flips in the air and splits

Quick glances as they tap dance and take trips

Nobody ripping their pants and spit shines on their shoes

Fancy dressed women moving with that swinger attitude

So smooth....

The bartender slides over a shot of bootleg liquor

While his cigarette still steaming So cool....

When you consider the speed in which we were traveling

And the cabin was leaning

Like a chatanooga choo choo I'm an engine number 9

Notice the change in the landscape rolling down the line

Rural areas

And small towns becoming buildings all tall now

Last stop the future so go all out


[Hook]


[Aceyalone 1st Verse Repeats]


[Verse 4: Busdriver]

You hate club hopping

Still you're out and about to a destination

You need a horn player

To give you mouth-to-mouth resuscitation

Because you're a fornicator

With an overdone smoker's lung

Who doesn't know what to do with her evening

Let me show you how it's done

We improvise over twelve-bar blues and held barbecues

Also weld star shoes for you to sky dance

Go and sell your car used and move to L.A

Where we make art fuse with black Bohemia

Where I live in a rat's nest but I rap fresh and the jazz fest

And everyone is so aware and astute

When we perform we're not just a bunch of arrogant flukes

I got backstage access and my catchphrase is a math test

I moisten my embrasure

They ask will you use your voice in the concert sir

And I say yes I will

Showing band leadership

I make the women feel feverish

When I'm dressed to kill


[Hook]
