3 Featuring Lyric Man

There once was a hippopotamus that turned into three, A Hip, a Pop and a Thomas. Hip was cool he stayed in school, Pop did not stop he was a fool, Thomas was a donkey, a maul. Hip worked hard always first to start, Pop lived his life out of a shopping cart, Thomas trafficed drugs in the dark. Hip finished school after working hard, Pop just sat around all day in bars, Thomas got caught with cocaine up his a.... Hip got married and lived life happy, Pop just drank and got real saggy, Thomas made sure there were drugs in the baggy. Hip grew old and his kids had kids, Pop choked one night on his own fluid, Thomas went to prison for being stupid. So kids listen to Lyric Man when he says, "it pays to be hip".
