Swagger Daggers---Hooked On Ebonics, Vol 1

*written for Verlena's Contest "EBONICS, Let's Do Some Slang"


SHAWTY,

Yir' boy fin' ta' told ya' bout some lessons in what the Man call Ebonics.
Cus' I gots' this!
Like the young fellow named Carmello on the New York Knicks, 
and girrrrrl I got mo' slang in my verse than the words of them nerds
down at Hooked On Phon-ics

I TRIED TA' TOLD YA"LL...

I keeps my flows tight,
Fam , 
cus word is bond like James
and I ain't talkin' Rick James, RIIIGHT!
 
Ya' see, round cheer, 
between Normandy and Western, 
what we call this is a little "Twennie Twin Twin"
but round the way,
where you stay, 
they just may call this a "Sinny Sin Sin!"

Yo, hold up baby girl...
Lemme ax you suh-um...
Who you be with?
cus Shawty, how you look, 
is off the hook,
and Boo-Boo you is suh-um I can see me with with!

Yo Yo Yo! Wait! Hold up girrrl! Where you goin'?

'Sup honey child, 
You know my favorite basketball player used to be Yao Ming!  
Ya-Mean?
Get it Yao Ming?
Yaa-Mean!?!-----(crickets chirp-ing fir' certain)

Lady Queen, come on back to me!
Yo, my jokes may be stupid, but they clean, 
B'sides, I coulda' been' said something idiotic like Idi Amin,
Yaa-Mean?
And the homey don't even play no basketball, ya dig? 
Yes YESHall! ...

Better put that ON SOMETHIN'! 
And you KNOW THIS!----(awww heck naw, Shawty dipped...)
