    A Bird In The Hand

    Hey look at this! I was cleaning out my nest
    and I found a book of my old poetry


    Fresh out of school cause I was a high school grad
    gots to get a job cuz I was a high school dad
    Wish I got paid like I was rappin' to the nation
    but thats not likely, so here's my application
    Pass it to the man at AT&T
    Cuz when I was in school I got the a. e. e.
    But there's no s. e. for this youngsta
    I didn't have no money so now I have to hunch the
    Back like a slave, thats what be happenin
    but whitey says there's no room for the African
    Always knew that I would boycott, jeez
    but welcome to McDonalds can I take your order please
    Gotta sell ya food that might give you cancer
    cuz my baby doesn't take no for an answer
    Now I pay taxes that you never give me back
    what about diapers, bottles, and similac
    Do I gotta go sell me a whole lotta crack
    for decent shelter and clothes on my back?
    Or should I just wait for help from Bush
    or Jesse Jackson, and operation Push
    If you ask me the whole thing needs a douch
    a masengel what the hell cracker sale in the neighborhood
    To the whorehouse bitches,
    Miss porker, little joe or Todd Bridges
    Or anybody that he know
    so I got me a bird, better known as a kilo
    Now everybody know I went from po' to a nigga that got dough
    So now you put the feds against me
    cause I couldn't follow the plan of the presidency
    I'm never givin' love again
    Cuz blacks are too fuckin broke to be republican
    Now I remember I used to be cool
    till I stopped fillin' out my W-2
    Now senators are gettin' hired
    and your plan against the ghetto backfired
    So now you got a pep talk
    but sorry, this is our only room to walk
    Cause we don't want a drug push
    But a bird in the hand is worth more than the bush

    tell the politicians, the hustlers: live and let live (yeah)
    tell the politicians, the hustlers: live and let live (yeah)
