Hey, hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it
What you waitin' for?
Do it, ('cause I'm a) do it, ('cause I'm a) do it
What you waitin' for?
Do it, (you know we) do it, (you know we) do it

Let me hear ya say big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Ball on these niggas, bein' broke is not an option

Now do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, ('cause I'm a) do it, ('cause I'm a) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you know we) do it, (you know we) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it

Let me hear ya say big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Ball on these niggas, bein' broke is not an option

Now do it to the maximum, take it why you askin' em
Don't listen to them suckers when they say you too irrational
See, I said it on "King" and them lames started laughin' and
Same suckers now want the King on a track with 'em
I composed several classicals, you know like "Top Back"
"Dope Boy", "Bring 'Em Out", and "What You Know About That"
Now they ask how I talk, what you know about that?
Dominated o six, now I'm goin' right back (do it)
See me rain hell, I just showed you like that
Even Denzel say, "Damn, I ain't know it like that"
Nigga yeah, still Bankhead, you can tell
Ain't nothin' changed but the name on the mail
I still kick in doors with them things in the air
Up in Benihana's, see me slang in the chair
I will slang 'caine, no such thing as a jail
Say you need a hundred squares?
It just came off the scale

Now do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, ('cause I'm a) do it, ('cause I'm a) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you know we) do it, (you know we) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it

Let me hear ya say big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Ball on these niggas, bein' broke is not an option

Now do it like a ball player
Where you see me ball at
Stacks tall as ball players
From the stage to the air
Whether in Miami, Cincinnati, or the Riverdale
Arizona, California, make it rain anywhere
Pullin' out that pistol nigga, who you think you fin' to scare?
Twenty rounds of missiles have you pissin' in your underwear
I tote a pair of forty cals so you better tone it down
Or I suggest you just prepare yourself for when it goin' down
A-Town, West Side, club where you'll catch me
Right up at the top where Big Kuntry, Dro, and Mack be
Jack o' Lions say they caught me slippin', how could that be?
I'm something like a stalker, I be everywhere the strap be
The trap be, jumpin' with them hundred dollar slabs
If I want it nigga, I could get a hundred on the tab
Sell 'em all, double down, nigga do the math
Think I won't pull up in something with two hundred on the dash?

Now do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, ('cause I'm a) do it, ('cause I'm a) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you know we) do it, (you know we) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it

Let me hear ya say big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Ball on these niggas, bein' broke is not an option

Now I do it like I wanna do it and do that shit in front of you
Real nigga vision pimpin', I ain't seein' none of you
I do it for my nigga Phil's daughter and his mama too
I do it for my oldest sons and their grandmama too
Do it for my daughters and my youngest son's mama who
Go buy what she want because she know it ain't a problem to
You do something to them and to you I'll bring the drama to
You do it for a day or so, we do it for a month or two
I do it for my partners, go make sure them niggas stuntin' too
We do it with them choppers, ain't no problem, where you runnin' to?
I do it for the block, that why ain't nobody stoppin' me
I do it for my pop and my cousins too, they watchin' me
I did it nonstop, now see how these niggas copy me
I made it from the bottom to the top where I oughta be
Who do it did good and do it did fresh
No matter what I do you know I do it to death

Now do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, ('cause I'm a) do it, ('cause I'm a) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you know we) do it, (you know we) do it
Hey what you waitin' for?
Do it, (you better) do it, (you better) do it

Let me hear ya say big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Big shit poppin' and little shit stoppin'
Ball on these niggas, bein' broke is not an option

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
