Dont Take Me Seriously by MC Shy D Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 1987

[Verse 1]
I woke up one morning about half past noon
I had to catch a plane, and I'm talkin' about soon
Collie called me up and said "Are you ready to go?"
With sleep in my eyes, I said "I guess so"
So I took a plane that was at least 40 high
And I asked DJ Man why we had to fly
'Cause I'm​ no friend to the friendly sky
'Cause every time i'm up there, I think I'm gonna die
So all the way up, cocktails get served
So I have to buy 2 just to calm my nerves
You know why?
'Cause i'm scared

Check it out

[Verse 2]
I said news is a program, that you should all watch
You get to the president, or Mayor Koch
News is made, for you and me
You get, to learn, about our ci-ty
Back then, one day, you might run outside
Think it's nice enough for a nice joyride
You get outside, you start to sneeze
But when you look, down, the snow is to your knees
You didn't even know it was ten degrees
You ran upstairs, you put on your Lees
Football, is a good cold sport
But you should've been watchin' the weather report
You know why?
'Cause it's cold
[Verse 3]
And one day, I came in early
'Cause it was boring
Walked in the room and my father was snoring
Came in my room, and lit up a joint
And then my mother came in, got straight to the point
She said "I don't mind reefer, I don't mind beer"
"But one damn thing: you don't do it in here!"
So I went outside, I went to the store
The brew went out, and I wanted some more
Well all they had, was Colt 45
I didn't really care 'cause they all get you high
I walked down the block, I saw my friends
So I knew I was gonna get high again
I packed my bag of Cheeba, I packed my brew
I didn't really care, 'cause he had Cheeba too
So we lit up a joint, and we ran a train
And a motha fuckin' reefer circulated through my brain
Jennifer walked up, looked me in my face
She said "Damn Shy D, you sure looked spaced"
You know why?
'Cause i'm buggin'
