0:191-I wish I was little bit taller
0:21I wish I was a baller
0:22I wish I had a girl who looked good
0:24I would call her
0:25I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
0:27And a six four Impala
0:29I wish I was like six-foot-nine
0:30So I can get with Leoshi
0:32Cause she don't know me but yo she's really fine
0:34You know I see her all the time
0:36Everywhere I go and even in my dreams
0:38I can scheme a way to make her mine
0:39Cause I know she's livin phat
0:40Her boyfriend's tall and he plays ball
0:42So how am I gonna compete with that
0:44'Cause when it comes to playing basketball
0:45I'm always last to be picked
0:47And in some cases never picked at all
0:49So I just lean up on the wall
0:50Or sit up in the bleachers with the rest of the girls
0:52Who came to watch their men ball
0:54Dag y'all I never understood black
0:56Why the jocks get the fly girls
0:57And me I get the hood rats
0:59I tell 'em scat skittle scabobble
1:00Got hit with a bottle
1:01And I been in the hospital
1:03For talkin' that mess
1:03I confess it's a shame when you livin' in a city
1:06That's the size of a box and nobody knows yo' name
1:09Glad I came to my senses
1:10Like quick-quick got sick-sick to my stomach
1:12Overcommeth by the thoughts of me and her together
1:15Right
1:15So when I asked her out she said I wasn't her type

1:41And everywhere I go yo I gets laughed at
1:43And when I'm in my car I'm laid back

1:47But that's flat
1:48And do you really want to know what's really whack
1:50See I can't even get a date
1:51So what do you think of that

1:54With the hood rats you can hold tight
1:55But really tho' I 'm a figaro
1:56When I'm in my car I can't even get a hello
1:59Well so many people want to cruise Crenshaw on Sunday
2:01Well then I'ma have to get in my car and go
2:03You know I take the 110 until the 105
2:04Get off at Crenshaw tell my homies look alive
