[Intro]

Just bang with it

Dedicated to Hawthorne High

Just bang with it



[Verse]

I'm just another rapper trying to make the hands clapper

Be in Teen Bop magazine that's what I'm after

But lately things ain't doing to well

Trying to excel but still in my Tercel

And one light's broke the other don't work

So I can't take my girl out at night yo what a jerk

Well anyway I got a brand new demo

A hit song that's takes me to Jay Leno

Then I can finally treat my girlfriend right

And go swing dancing in the middle of the night

Cause I've been shopping my little demo for three years

And I'm tired of hanging out with the same peers

I wanna sow and grow and plow with my rhymes

But most of my friends love to waste time

I'm speaking on the real

I'm sick of basing my whole life on a record deal



[Chorus]

I should've known yo I should've known

Should've got a real job and digital phone

My highschool reunion is soon from now

And I only got two dollars in my checking account boy

I should've known yo I should've known

Should've got a real job and digital phone

Maybe a wife and some kids and picket fence

But now I get by trying to scrape up rent



[Verse]

My most people my age is in a corporation

Not in the Inglewood jail for a citation

With my girl out there she bailing me out

Most of you niggies don't know what I'm talking about

You got a pretty wife and two kids up in the crib

I'm eating canned chili with no shirt showing my ribs

What I'm gonna say when they ask "what I been up to?"

I'm looking for a record deal and looking for work too

They say they got a PHD

Ni***s I'm eating chili burritos at Taco Bell on Beverly

Getting refills this caffeine got me ill

I'm surrounded by well dressed Americans paying bills

And I've been late for months yo I'm a try to fake it

But they gonna smell the front and slowly be awakened that

Pigeon John's a joke three times broke

And he's dreaming and he can't be woke cause



[Chorus]



[Verse]

Pigeon John's a joke three times broke

And He's dreaming and he can't be woke

About Caddillacs, minimalism and contracts

Futon beds and downtown spreads and how to act oh boy

Pigeon John's a joke three times broke

And he's dreaming and he can't be woke

About Prada slacks, screenplays and Kerouac

Living in Maine and sailing the seas without a map like swish



[Chorus]
