When Rico Call
When Rico call,
it’s best to press delete ... quickly
Let the message fall
on a deaf -mute discreet ... hurriedly
When you see Rico coming,
walking down
the shady side of the street,
I advise,
you better get to fast pace stepping
Don’t greet his eyes ...
urgently run to the other side
Lower your friendly pride,
and start beep-beep moving like a felon
If he catches you
then you better hope that his five-dollar ask,
don’t get bumped into
a six-finger handshake W squeeze eleven
When Rico call,
receiving bad news is a given
And his sympathy card
always got a “Help Me” donation that’s missing
Needing you to do
some extra charity ball Benjamin fixing
When Rico call,
it’s best for you to delete that phone pall —
Do it quickly ... don’t stall
He’s gon surely ask for an unpaid favor
Babel Tower small,
and another loan install
Dread when you hear Rico’s celly ring,
it can only mean
one vexing, request thing —
How much cash can you instantly bring
