Art Rap Party

[Verse 1]

It's a shelter for battered artists

With nightly contests to see who's been smacked the hardest

But only press half the charges

Cause we love the punishment like any other passive martyrs

It's the Stockholm syndrome

A house full of runaways that's not gon' get home

It's not where overly macho men go

We killed bravado

With a steel Silverado

Twelve step program for pills or the bottle

And right down the hill from a brothel

Sorry sex addicts

Sometimes the party gets crackin'

Groovin' to a soundtrack of REM sadness

(Fiesta!)

We use the term very loosely

We play bid whist and serve cherry juice drink

Dr. Serengeti has a Burberry mood ring

And goes on rants like an absurd Gary Busey

[Hook]

Ain't no party like an Art Rap Party

Cause an Art Rap Party's so smart(x4)

[Verse 2]

With or without 'shrooms

A boom bap odyssey

Arguing how to record the two-track properly

(Hey, yo, who's that?)

It's new rap possibly

Fucking up my discussion of Bloom's Taxonomy

What's the point I was making?

Debating on whether Barack has joined with the Masons

Various platforms are poised for the taking

Like whether or not 'Pac was anointed as sacred

(Two queens just walked in)

With Grade A faces

In low cut bald fades and gray laced Asics

To get 'em you need to be talking paid vacations

Or have original game like James A. Naismith

(One of 'em's knock-kneed)

The other walks pigeon toed

(One brought Saki)

The other brought dinner rolls

(One wears red locs)

The other's light indigo

(One likes Death Note)

The other likes Ninja Scroll

[Hook]

Ain't no party like an Art Rap Party

Cause an Art Rap Party's so smart(x4)

[Verse 3]

C'mon raise your glasses up

As Regan recites a page from Britannica

On the life of Jack Kerouac

Killing everybody like Iraq air attacks

I know you'd like to write scary tracks

Princess Superstar would like her mascara back

Somebody spins Paris Zax

Bringing folks together like the twins in the Parent Trap

Around a Fat Tire keg

We're rappers discussing what other rap writers said

White Rabbit made a wallet out of black spiders' legs

Then we all rap about it 'til the campfire's dead

[Hook]

Ain't no party like an Art Rap Party

Cause an Art Rap Party's so smart(x4)
