Clownin' in the Yay


It's my last night in Cali
my time is done
I love the Bay
but this ain't where I'm from

I play the guitar
I beat the drum
People call me mister
but I been known to go dumb

Got my stunna shades on
I'm a push you all in
Be at the casino all night
cuz I'm here to win

Just got a suitcase on Shattuck
Throw some deez on it

I be rollin' in Berzerkeley
with my punked out hair
I ain't no vegan
and I just don't care

Gonna move to Tanzania
where they call me mzungu
you don't know about me
cuz you don't come from where I do -

The suburbs
yeah I'm stacked like that
it don't matter
cuz I'm black like that

Baboukar Sallah
Gambian Boss
I pray to Allah
when I'm at a loss

Yo I'll come to your block
But I'm a stay in my car
and keep my doors locked
