Poem
Let me tell you ‘bout this cosmic cat, somebody you really oughta know Got the coolest walk, the hippest talk When he enters the danger zone, his heartbeat slows ... Giving casual yawns, while everyone is running for their life He’s mellow maxing out, waiting for the madness to stop And he gets a private sit-rep from the first arriving cop He’s a hero for the people, a legend of the mean streets Got good gorilla in his blood, and Tarzan is his sidekick peep You know playtime’s over when you hear the big Caddy lady sing His bounce is heard on the asphalt grapevine, serious road flow ... raise the neon curtain It’s show time ... Here’s comes Phat Pocket Lean He’s not much wider than the end of your favorite baseball bat Wearing his signature florescent, pearl-white Kangol hat He’s got a cool, sauntering swing, a Detroit trouble-can-wait gait Was given the name Phat Pocket Lean, ‘cause he made heavy wallet money the right way He invested early on in dot.com crime, his cyber security firm is top-of-the-line He was a veteran survivor of the ghetto wars, busted down a lot of city dope den doors, raided a lot of suburban escort hotel floors That’s how he met Tarzan, a tender cub of week four And ever since then, Tarzan became his sidekick peep Now brotha believe me ... you don’t wanna see Tarzan showing his teeth And did I forget to mention, Phat Pocket Lean is a lion who legally walks the street Phat Pocket Lean got a cool, sauntering swing It’s a made-in-Detroit walk that’s Simba sweet, an E’side stride Brewster Project bouncy beat Wearing his signature golden loafers on his feet And you know good times is about to begin When Phat Pocket Lean takes you under his wings, and tells everybody that you’re his new friend He treats everyone like royalty; whether high or low, big or small ... smart or slow A laid back kinda of fella, whose humble good to go He always has a rich interest in the plight of the poor Phat Pocket Lean is a lion of a man for sure And everybody knows who’s coming ... when they hear him and Tarzan roar!
