Lyrics

0:13Why oh why must you hoodswoop through the
0:15Like everybody from the hood is up to no good
0:18You think all the girls around here are trickin'
0:20Up there lookin' like Super chicken
0:23At night I see your light through my bedroom window
0:26But I ain't got sh*t but the pad and pencil
0:28I can't wait till I hear you say
0:30"I'm going down mayday mayday " I'm gonna clown
0:34Cause everytime that the pigs have got me
0:36Y'all rub it in with the flying Nazi
0:40Military force but we don't want ya
0:42Standin' on my roof with the rocket launcher
0:44"So fly like an eagle "
0:46But don't follow us wherever we go
0:49The sh*t that I'm saying make it's heard
0:51Motherf**k you and your punk-a** ghetto bird
0:55"Run run run from the ghetto bird"
1:00"Run run run from the ghetto bird"
1:04Now
1:05My homey's here to lick on a trick for a Rolex
1:08And let me try the four next
1:10Now the four I was driving was hotter than july
1:13Looked up and didn't see it whippin' in the sky
1:15Saw a chopper with numbers on the bottom
1:18"Calling all cars I think we've got em "
1:20I hit the gas and I mashed past Inglewood
1:23I think I drove through every single hood
1:26South Central Compton and Watts
1:28Long Beach bust a you here come the cops
1:31Wish I had a genie with about three wishes
1:34Metal flake green on D's I look suspicious
1:37You know that I'm running
1:38Sh*t I hear it humming
1:40F**k I see it coming
1:41Is it a bird Yup
1:43Is it a plane No
1:45I hit me a right on El Segundo
1:47Wanted to holla had to ditch the Impala
1:50Let's see if they would folla
1:52Me hit a fence hit a fence and another
1:55Met me a baby pitbull and his mother
1:57Ran up in some peoples house and looked out of the window
2:01My I wish it was ten-four
2:02Had to pull a strap on a fool named Louis the Third
2:05'Cause I'm getting chased by the ghetto bird
2:08"Just put his hat ehrrr
2:10He combed his hair and then put his hat back on
2:13He's acting nonchalant up there in that cockpit going 115
2:17Miles an the hour police chasing with him
2:19They're not gonna be
2:20Real happy when they catch up with him no matter what the eh
2:25They hate they hate a bigmouth even worse "
2:28Officer Bird's on his way and I don't want to see him
2:31Could you please give me the keys to the B M
2:34See I didn't want to gank you
2:36But don't make me bank you thank you
2:39Tried to get yo the hood and you might guess
2:42That a fool like me woulda shot Cyrus
2:45Incognito Ghetto Eagle
2:47Saying "F**k where did he go "
2:50I bust me a left from Rubellon Park
2:52The 735 and I'm bailin'
2:55Went to my homegirl's house and got a hug man
2:57She helped me run like Harriet Tubman
3:00Looked out the window by the black bed
3:03I saw the pigs and the four on a flatbed
3:05Then the light from the bird hit me in facethe
3:08I close the blinds cause I didn't want to catch a case
3:11All that night I heard the bird circle
3:13While I was eating fish and watching Urkel
3:16She said I could sleep on the couch
3:18By two A M I was digging her out
3:21Ghetto F**k birdthe
3:21"Which way is he going now "
3:23"Ok now now he's he's actually southbound on a service street
3:27And uh Gee whiz uh I'm gonna get my maps out here and figure
3:32Out which street service he suddenly turned off on Uh the sheriffs
3:34Are are well I know that Sheriffs ground units got thrown off"
3:39Motherf**k you and your punk-a** ghetto bird
Why oh why must you hoodswoop through the
Like everybody from the hood is up to no good
You think all the girls around here are trickin'
Up there lookin' like Super chicken
At night I see your light through my bedroom window
But I ain't got sh*t but the pad and pencil
I can't wait till I hear you say
