The Potion Lyrics

Lyric discussion by BigDaddyChaCha 

Cover art for The Potion lyrics by Ludacris

"but still a bigshot plus i gotta big ("Cock")"

"I'm bout to feel aboard" should be "I'm bout to fill a void," as in what the music industry has been missing.

"like imma slip not," should be "like I'mma slipknot." I think he's talking about being hanged/lynched.

"kondike Bar"=Klondike Bar.

"Jump down turn around Pick a bell of cotton Jump down turn around Pick a bell of hay Oh Lordy pick a bell of cotton Oh Lordy Pick a bell of hay"
In each case here, it should be bail of cotton/hay, not bell. He's talking about slavery, and cotten and hay have never been measured in "bells."

"bells like a bondsman" = "bails like a bondsman." (The bondsman is the person you pay your bail to in order to get out of prison. Somebody must have bells on the brain here!)

"life no different that ozar ("than ozar"? no, it's "THOSE ON") minimum wage mo money but still locked in a similar cage either losers of tomorrow ("OR WE'RE WINNERS TODAY") Now just that and theres really nothin missin to say but..."

"freaky-deaky yellow man ("AND I'M SAYIN' 'HELLO,' MAN") to all the lovely ladies that like to jiggle like Jell-O, man"

Now, all corrections aside, I think this is one of the most awesome Ludacris songs out there. It's also one of the few rap songs that I would consider introducing my parents to because it is talking about issues of race more than sex/drugs/violence.
