Pabst Blue Ribbon

Got pabst blue ribbon
for american rhythm 
and now presenting 
some sophistication;
ladies and gentleman 
stay clear i'm pissing
straight jameson; 
on these rocks here
still sipping on my beer;
cheers...

Rap Jesus

i sling rhymes
like i fling stones;
miraculous style
bound to rock your dome.
i got metaphors
like a fortune teller;
for sense like a psychic
when i predict futures. 
my two cents
make so much sense
i gain interest.
i'm a bank-teller storytelling 
shorty loving typo fellow; 
clever like a rapper but lazy
wont spit it loco gringo.
just pen it and sling it 
type borracho. 
best go get your poncho 
cuz im turning water to cerveza
then im dropping some rain on ya.
tasty styles token so your bound to be saying 
is this hound playing or was he born easter morning?

Country Road

Now god dang darn nabbit if I'm a gonna have it,
any other way then the way I done describe it.
Countryside road hellbent on winding;
barely getting by just trying to survive.
And if cleanliness is godliness 
I'm satan himself, living in filth;
happy as a tornado in a trailer park.
Twisted as the chew strands, i've been dipping;
stinking like the juices in my spit can...
And I'm pretty damn sure 
it's in my blood that;
if I aint driving racecar then 
I'm wasting my time.
And I ain't fixin on wasting no time.
Cuz I ain't got time for that ya'll;
what with the misses bitching and all.

Spring Feeling (An Ode To Michigan)

I love farmland in spring 
and new beginnings 
and winning in extra innings. 
I love a fat lady singing;
barbecues, chilling, grilling; 
no curfews, imported brews;
a lime or two beautiful women;
swimming in ocean michigan.
Bonfires waterside 
with fire flies flying by;
whiskey bottle by my side;
sitting, sipping, simply wishing 
summertime would continue. 
But autumn's harvest wont be far off
and winter blowing in is looking grim.

The Necessities

I'm too able bodied to be this poor,
too intelligent to ignore, 
the establishment 
f$cking us over anymore. 
Why's the working class
the poorer class?
And who does the more 
important tasks?
For profit everything; 
everyday swindling; 
minimum wage 
that doesn't pay
for the necessities...  
Reassess your priorities 
as population booms
mass produced, industrialized
automation of consumption...
Maybe free market thinking 
isn't quite so free any more. 
And how is it that in the 
age of information 
education isn't free?
When it comes to the necessities  
who has the right to profit off these?
It's time we end poverty,
wise up and save our trees.
My life of luxury ain't 
stressing bout necessity; 
just eating well with shelter, 
public transit and i'll prosper.

Purgatory Prayer

Getting high like cocaine 
as i fly higher then your rogaine;
wishing i was snowboarding 
not falling outta college.
When i die, lord may i touch the sky
and get smashed by a meteorite. 
Bright like fireworks delight,
slope side friday night lights, 
Cliff drops down crater runs, having fun;
praising Allah for five hundred or so 
extra vertical, name it mount heavenly. 
My ghost will call it mount purgatory; 
invites for eternity; who's joining me?

Plain and Simple

take sanctuary in my city; 
and live peacefully with me. 
we're just people, plain and simple; 
and that's good enough for we.
we're just people, plain and simple; 
and that's all we'll ever be.

United States of Apathy

wake up hysteria, 
good morning america;
don't panic but your 
countries senile;
the politicians are evil.
what's the media feeding you?
propaganda and slander, 
B. S. by the bushel, 
big oil officials, 
deceit by the barrel
thats current america.
But I pledge allegiance 
to corporate america;
to the united states of apathy
and oxymorons; one nation 
under Allah with liberty, justice 
and health insurance for
those who can afford it.  
my country isn't free,
sweet land of irony.
