Cripple

[Intro]

Turn the beat up some more

Ay-yeah-yeah, anchors

[Verse 1]

Uh, rectangle full of color

Complicated man sits, dedicated to the rudder

Under Apollo, over feeling under as a swallow, Wadjet wallows

Instead he looks for Yetis in tomorrow

And do-gooders become regretters for giving garble

At the art show out in Park Slope

Broken dancers rather flatten cardboards than work at Arco

Flippers who feat feets riff contortionists hips and grease slippers

Tweezers release slivers

From lines with deep splinters, paws for sweet skippers

Another key-figure's of East River's who eat liver and drink liquor

And root for Bird due to an unconscious urge to beat niggas

Who prefer sweet, steep sleep

And to pull hoes with the ease of police triggers

Sikhs at the hair show, Arabs at the airport

Caucasians in the projects, niggas anywhere though

[Refrain]

People lovingly exclaim

People lovingly exclaim

People lovingly exclaim

People...

[Hook]

Beauty is the largest

Obstacle to obsess

Decorate the sergeant

Community resistance in progress

[Verse 2]

Pull out game strong like the Waco Kid

But also like a lifeguard, now that don't even make no sense

But since, if the swimmers ain't got no rings on

Don't be a fag, let me stab that Yoo-Hoo with my ding-dong

Fruits of interracials, my banana's bigger than King Kong

Both ways seem wrong like nobody in China is good at ping-pong

Seem wrong?

That's evidence they shouldn't be passing their genes on

That was racist, but I'ma run with it

Like every sagging pair of pants has to have a gun in it

So I undid it, like a Singapore with gum in it

Does that mean if I let you ride it, I can put my thumbs in it?

Uhn—nasty, but let the moment pass, only wave if they ask

And catch me at the scene of the crash, karma

They hate blood like Blade

So they hate cuz like an English teacher grades

[Hook]

Beauty is the largest

Obstacle to obsess

Diaspora and sonnets

Community resistance in progress

[Refrain]

People lovingly exclaim

People lovingly exclaim

People lovingly exclaim

People...

[Verse 3]

The city: population control, occupation parole

Hope the swayed persuades and this conversation cajoles

Not to be Enron

Alexander Hamilton of Cassandra's Agamemnon

The environment is more than just a panda at the wind farm

Looks cool but it's bull as cool fusers

And the abusers fuel the duel losers

To make fools of the schools and pool Bueller's

The crusade to legislate oxygen

And put it in a box just like Desiree Washington

Fortune cookie, First Panda accelerated profit

And hope Santa fill my socks with highly-decorated moccasins

My, how the roles have reversed

So now we gotta eat 'em for dessert

Bop the kids just to free 'em from the curse

Dress up the thots in lingerie and feed 'em to Levert (uh-huh)

[Hook]

Beauty is the largest

Organize the objects

Diaspora and sonnets

Community resistance in progress

[Outro]

Diaspora and sonnets

Community resistance in progress

Woah—the people lovingly exclaim (people lovingly exclaim)

People lovingly exclaim (people lovingly exclaim)

People lovingly exclaim (people lovingly exclaim)

Community resistance in progress

Pe-pe-people lovingly exclaim (people lovingly exclaim)
