I get my hiphop on. I get my hiphop on. Allow me to get my hiphop on. Allow me to get my hiphop on!

Just a little story that I got to tell,
about a boy named Lu and a girl named Chenel,
She from the ghetto, he is as well,
He listens to The Neptunes, she Mr. Kells,
So while his head was in the clouds,
she was on the down-low, foul, more so
The '03 version of a virgin,
Said she learned head from a porno (Word?)
Upbringing was worse than he,
She from a broken home,
One day broke father broke in home,
Lookin' for a fix from brokenhearted momma,
Choked and broke her bones,
Now he dismayed,
'Cause he don't think things need to be that way,
Now he at work, and she at play,
and she get paid,
But he don't think she could ever be that way,

[Chorus]
You'd better MAKE SURE your game is tight,
'Cause you don't wanna risk bein' a lame tonight
'Cause that PIMP HAND will smack you down,
Make you hit the road, don't come back around

You'd better MAKE SURE your game is tight,
'Cause you don't wanna risk bein' a lame tonight
'Cause that PIMP HAND will lay you low,
Don't hate the playa, just the way it go

Now Lu's not your ordinary mild-mannered man,
Who doesn't man up,
Who just got caught with his pants down and his hands up,
NAW,
He's a dog, he's a playa he's a mack!(whoo!)
Who preys on the weak and the meek and the quiet,
Try to make 'em into freaks,
Gets with the big girls with jobs,
and tell 'em "[They] don't really need to diet,"
NO,
Then it's free Micky D's for he,
And it's three until she gets herself fired,
"Sorry,"
LIAR, he don't care, he gon' say whatever she want hear,
Whatever it takes,
To get whatever he want or what he won't wear,
Plaid,
She think he won't dare
Creep with her friends when her ends end,
Lu be prepared, 'cause he ain't scared

[Chorus]
You'd better MAKE SURE your game is tight,
'Cause you don't wanna risk bein' a lame tonight
'Cause that PIMP HAND will smack you down,
Make you hit the road don't come back around,

You'd better MAKE SURE your game is tight,
'Cause you don't wanna risk bein' a lame tonight
'Cause that PIMP HAND will lay you low,
Don't hate the playa, just the way it go

No matter how much strength man,
you think that your pimp hand has got,
It pose no opposition to polititians,
They so efficient in they tradition,
they pimpin' is tops,
School is a mack with a track,
Bring back the tax,
Air Force One is a 'Lac,
Bombs over Baghdad, johns in Iraq,
Yes indeed, Democracy is a flirt in a miniskirt,
Tryin' to give a handjob to the desert,
till it squirt Texas Tea,
And give a condom to Congress to stretch the siege,
Best believe, you'll catch disease,
Siphyllus of the spirit,
Arthritis of the knees,
And you can watch on the idiot box,
This NBC is like Spice, alright!

[Chorus]
You'd better MAKE SURE your game is tight,
'Cause you don't wanna risk bein' a lame tonight
'Cause that PIMP HAND will smack you down,
Make you hit the road don't come back around

You'd better MAKE SURE your game is tight,
'Cause you don't wanna risk bein' a lame tonight
'Cause that PIMP HAND will lay you low,
Don't hate the playa, just the way it go

    "He listens to The Neptunes, She Mystikals" should be "He Listens to The Neptunes, She Mr Kells" as in R. Kelly.

    You know this because he then says " So while his head was in the clouds, She was on the Down Low" Down Low is an R.Kelly track

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
