[English]

We gonna drop this next bomb for a money makin' playa that ain't with us no mo

Yeah, Notorious B.I.G.

Hell no, we gonna do this for a gangbanging thug that never seen it comin'

Yeah, Tupac Shakur

Nah bitch, I'm talkin' 'bout motherfuckin' Falco and shit

What? Falco?

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Rock me Amadeus

Tried to O.D. on the Cold-Eeze

Golden Girls got me sweatin' to the oldies

Hangin' out like double D's

Sip Long Island Iced Teas

Wrote to Mayor McCheese

Send a Shamrock Shake please?

Three o' clock on the dot

Time to cruise for eighth graders

Rather tape the Weather Channel

So that I can watch it later

Reruns of Rerun

So what's happening?

Dee's knocked up and Rog on crack again

Deep throat a whole Nutty Buddy

Make whoopie to a batch of Silly Putty

Make a Spam and Colgate sandwich and ate it

Go through National Geographic and draw panties on the natives

So I like to dance naked in front of my pets

But my cat was inattentive so I sent him U.P.S.

Play spin the bottle with my mom

I watch Cops with no pants on

Must've blown a fuse

Nothin's goin' on

Lamer than the Pope

Climb the walls like King Kong

Buggin' out like Tori Spelling's eyes

Deader than the parents on a Party Of Five

Luciano Pavoratti on a treadmill

Not goin' nowhere

Slim chance we will

Less hip than Bo Jackson

Bored like wood

Dick around like Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Relax don't do it

When you wanna go to it

Relax don't do it

When you wanna cum

Relax don't do it

When you wanna go to it

Relax don't do it

When you wanna cum

Nowhere to go

I can't wake up late

Just sit around and wait for my Old Spice to activate

Stalemate jailbait in My So-Called Life imprisonment

Amazing what a good breakfast pickles make isn't it?

I like to pretend I'm speed reading

Never lose the sight of the girl sneezin'

Don't need a shower today

Just some Brut by Faberge

Smell the ass of my jeans

Clean, they'll do another day

And I recycle

I sniff my own farts

I dial the wrong number

Hope a conversation starts

I mean I might as well be listenin' to Journey

Givin' myself a mullet

The Flowbee to the Kirby

Make a prank call pretendin' I'm a mime

Get stuck in traffic just to pass the time

Sent a letter in the mail in Braille to Johnny Quest

Send me back my Pencil Test

Must've blown a fuse

Nothin's goin' on

Lamer than the Pope

Climb the walls like King Kong

Buggin' out like Tori Spelling's eyes

Deader than the parents on a Party Of Five

Luciano Pavoratti on a treadmill

Not goin' nowhere

Slim chance we will

Less hip than Bo Jackson

Bored like wood

Dick around like Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Relax don't do it

When you wanna go to it

Relax don't do it

When you wanna cum

Relax don't do it

When you wanna go to it

Relax don't do it

When you wanna cum

I'm mighty, tighty, whitey and I'm smugglin' plums

When you wanna cum

I'm mighty, tighty, whitey and I'm smugglin' plums

When you wanna cum

I'm mighty, tighty, whitey and I'm smugglin' plums

When you wanna cum

I'm mighty, tighty, whitey and I'm smugglin' plums

When you wanna cum

Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo! What it is motherfuckers?

Aw shit, here comes Pac-Man

Hey Pac-Man, what's up?

Me you bitches! I'm high on crack! Wanna freebase?

No, Pac-Man, drugs are bad

Nope, can't help you man

Pussies

Whoa! Holy shit!

Must've blown a fuse

Nothin's goin' on

Lamer than the Pope

Climb the walls like King Kong

Buggin' out like Tori Spelling's eyes

Deader than the parents on a Party Of Five

Luciano Pavoratti on a treadmill

Not goin' nowhere

Slim chance we will

Less hip than Bo Jackson

Bored like wood

Dick around like Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Relax don't do it

When you wanna go to it

Relax don't do it

When you wanna cum

Relax don't do it

When you wanna go to it

Relax don't do it

When you wanna cum

Holy macaroni

Holy macaroni

Holy macaroni

Holy macaroni

Holy macaroni

Holy macaroni

Holy macaroni

Holy macaroni
