Car Thief Lyrics
Some static started in the pool hall
Hit a motherfucker's face with the cue ball
Then I met this girl she tried to gank me
So I smacked her in the booty with a Plank Bee
Cause me and my crew were out breaking windows
The bingo the lotto you know I'll never win those
Possession is half the law
I had my routines before all y'all
Your whole life is coming apart at the seams
You ain't nothing but a car thief biting routines
See I'm a city slicker I ain't no townie
Right now I wish I had another hash brownie
Like Ricky always said you've got to toke and pass
Or Mookie's gonna kick your fuckin' ass
You try to take what isn't yours like a God damn rat
*See I personally I wouldn't even to go out like that*
I'm a writer a poet a genius I know it
I don't buy cheeba I grow it
*I'm a farmer*
People always trying to get next to me
I had a beautiful experience on ecstasy
Smoked up a bag of elephant tranquilizer
Because I had to deal with a money hungry miser
Had a caine filled Kool with my man Rush Rush
Saw my teeth fall in the sink when I started to brush
You be doing nose candy on the Bowie Coke Mirror
My girl asked for some but I pretended not to hear her
You can't deny me you always want to try me
Yo you're just gonna get your ass kicked
Homeboy throw in the towel
Your girl got dicked by Ricky Powell
The Godfather of Soul in the belly of the beast
Smoking that dust at St. Anthony's Feast
All the wife beaters and all the tax cheaters
Sitting in the White House pulling their peters
Buy me cheeba from the cop down the street
The only cop with a rope chain walking the beat
Like a sneaky pouch time bomb tickin'
Like the beat to my rhyme just kickin'
Space cake cookies I discover who I am
I'm a dusted old bummy Hurdy Gurdy Man
Five-O caught me now I'm going to the mountains
Said good-bye to my girl my lawyers and accountants
My mind is kinda rhymin and I think I oughta think
So I'm rockin all the rhymes and I'll have another drink
So the lights are flashing my mind is spinning
I feel like it is always the beginning
Of another rhyme I'm rapping M.C.'ing I rock
You ain't nothing but a car thief who must be stopped

Easily the best Beastie Boys song ever...
....and that's saying something!
Definately the best Beastie's track off their best album.
Ricky being Rick Rubin of course.
@Omnicide Ricky is actually Ricky Powell.

This is one of the greatest Beastie Boys songs out there. It's about a night someone (or they?) had while on drugs. It's hard to understand what this song really means. My guess is maybe a car thief stole their car that was full of drugs/money? I listen to it for the flow of the words and the imagery that you can portray in your mind with the music it delivers.
i love how they used the sample of the jackson five's i'll bet you
I'm not exactly sure which is my favorite Beastie song, but Car Thief certainly comes to mind when asked. It's the perfect example of how great the Beasties are. It's an album track, not a single. Easily the best song on Paul's Boutique.
@kanoe13 Egg Man is the best track on Paul\'s Boutique
