[Intro]

Damn, I'm broke

My feet hurt

Inside the mind of a car jacker

And that bitch is slipping

It makes me wanna creep

Damn, it makes me wanna creep

I got something for your mind, your body and your soul

I got something for your mind, your body and your soul


[Verse 1]

Damn, I'm such a G it's pathetic

Here comes the big-headed

Nigga that's dipping

Sipping on Courvoisier

Goddamn I must have the floss today

Now pimping ain't easy but it's necessary

So I'm chasing bitches like Tom chased Jerry

I'll put the pedal to the floor

In my two-tone Ford Explorer

You know how it's done

Sounds bumping

Ain't that something

Jumped on the 110

She's flying in the Blazer

Like go Speed Racer

But I ain't gonna chase her

Like Racer X

But I won't flex

Til it's time to have sex

So when you wanna get together

Cause you know a nigga like me

Is down for whatever

Damn, and I'm down for whatever

Damn


[Verse 2]

When I was little I didn't wanna be like Mike

I wanted to be like Ike, cause

Papa Was A Rollin' Stone in the sixties

And he liked green just like Bill Bixby

Told me that my best friend was a ten and a twenty

Pockets never skinny

Played Let's Get It On in the living room

And when he got drunk, you'd better give him room

Cause he'll turn the party out saying

"This is MY muthafuckin house!"

And y'all gots to go through the door

And if you can't find the door

He'll help you with the four-four

Talking much shit on the grass

And straight down to blast

I'm still in my PJs;

He's in a turtleneck sweater

And we down for whatever


[Interlude]

And I'm down

Solid Pro is down for whatever

The Don Jagwarr is down for whatever

Yeah

And it don't seem to stop


[Verse 3]

Now, uhh, I don't talk a lot of shit

But when it's time to get busy with these hoes, let's go

Cause I'd rather see a skinhead dead

Then my niggas wearing blue or red

Cause I got the gift

To hit these hoes swift

And I'm smelling like a fifth of something

Yeah, that's right

I'm standing in the store

Koreans act so nice

Cause I got potentials to blow up a Winchells

Donut

And you know what

I'm Cool Like Dat like Digable Planets

But don't take a nigga for granted

Cause whether it's a verdict or the L.A. four

You just don't know

That this rapping-ass nigga will change with the weather

And be down for whatever

And I'm down


[Outro]

Creep

And I'm down for whatever

Bump it in your Jeep

Ice Cube - D'voidofpop

And I will never dance for you trick-ass niggas

It makes me wanna creep

It makes me wanna creep
