Charlie by The Last Emperor Lyrics
Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
How may people in here called- Char,char, charlie Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
Yeah, a-ha,[Charlie Brown, x2], it's just me and Charlie Brown yo'
(How many people in here called...)
It's a real story yo, check it out-
This is the tail of a neighborhood legend
Who got his first glimpse at the age of eleven
Then inner city streets with its troubles and flaws to him
A new world full of wonder and all
Hangin' out with his boys trying to make some noise
Still he moves through the neighbourhood with grace and poise
How can such a young man learn how to run scams
Peepin' in, sneaking in, to all the neighbourhood jams
He observed the teenage romances, and learned how to do all the new dancers
Exploring the hour as his curfew advances
Charlie was the type that likes to take chances
[Chorus]
Charlie, he's the life of the party
He make the girls get up move their body
He like to hang out late and act naughty
If all night is a crime welll I'm sorry
A little late does not a criminal make
See Charlie know how to make the ladies wiggly and shake
Ain't no shame in his game or the pretention in fame
Showing out for the ladies who be calling his name
His name is Charlie
(How,How How, many people in here called:
Charlie Brown, Charlie brown x2)
Charlie started his one man mission
Somewhere on the corner of dream and ambition
Man listen
I know the brother had vision
Amidst the crack rocks, slap rocks and hand rippin'
He dreamt of a better place, where he could get away
And blow up off the skills he could detonate
Collect mad chips, hang out with fast chicks
Here he goes racing through the block like a drag strip
The hard-headed non-listening type
If you ain't close to your homies
Ya'll ain't kickin' it right
Instead of learning to love, he was livin' to fight
I used to quiz my man Charlie of his mission in life
He said, "I want to live loud and still never be afraid, drive a fast car
Be a rap star, get paid. Even if it means I gotta rank game like arcade
Let the ladies scream my name for the next decade
My name is Charlie."
(How,How How, many people in here called:
Charlie Brown, Charlie brown
X4)
Charlie is the kid you can find around the way
Hanging out on the corner on any given day
Life was a game and if he knew how to play
Safe to say, he would be with us today
Charlie, hangin' out getting naughty
Lost his life right infront of the party
I told him slow down or else he'll be sorry;
Thought he was sronger than the streets, but not harldly
With guns drawn, they hit him with the cheap shot
Caught him at the party because they knew it was his weak spot
He was unique, moving to his own rhythm but damn all of the scams
Finally caught up with him
Since then, the neighbourhood's not the same, the first young brother to be caught up in the game
Finally made his way in the ghetto Hall of Fame, a young cat with a legendary name
Charlie, was the life of the party
Make the girls get up move their body
He used to hang out late and act naughty
Now he's gone and I am sorry.) x2
Yo, yeah, some real story ya'll

Yeah, it's my man
Ah, ye...
