I am a wannabe 
You better be careful around me 
I come from far away, where mustang dreams are made 
And we are fashioned in the image of the Don's who have come before us 
We all kiss the rings of sand like our fathers told us. 

'Cause I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack 
I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack 
I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack, better go back to far away. 

Like a lemon pie a la mode, my nine is easy to load 
Aall hail Jericho 
Turnpike Teck 
That's where I go to learn the things about the universe I'll need 
So I can build a stamped 
'Cause I'm all up in your face again, I'm all up in your face. 

'Cause I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack 
I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack 
I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack, better go back to far away. 

A wannabe gangstar, a victim of the chromosome prankster 
I thanks ya, I sits back in my chair to contemplate my hair 
OOH DAMN, I reak of cologne 
But yo I'm lookin' snappy, I'm nappy, I'm crappy, got jimmy hats from pappy 
So now I'm trigger happy 
(Girl did he just rhyme 'crappy' with 'happy'?) 
Yeah, so you girlies wanna get wit this nit wit, got Cheese Whiz or not? 
Then I'm a hafta blow up ya mail box BIATCH! 
Or toilet paper ya front yard, show the cops my Suburbs Card 
They gotta let me go cause they know that I'm hard 
It's the deal it's for real, ya betta listen to what I'm tellin' ya . . . 
'Cause I'm a wannabe gangstar. 

'Cause I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack 
I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack 
I'm a wannabe gangstar, better go back to Commack, better go back to far away.
