My pockets stay fat and they always like that
Not only in pocket but in my bank there's stacks and stacks of dough
Cause I move slow I get my cash flow and then I go
And brother's don't know I'm on the down low
Some get mad cause they can't understand
That I'm 23 years old I'm in command
I'm down with DITC, that's "Diggin' in the Crates"
And my partner A.G., we always keep crazy papes
I'm staying fat, cause what comes around goes around
I always help out and help a brother when he's down
And out like a boyscout, brothers always shout
"Good lookin out Show" Yeah, without a doubt
But don't try and take advantage
I'll just leave you alone instead of putting that ass in bandages
Signing off is Show B-I-Z
And next up is A.G., he likes his pockets F-A-T

Check it out yo, A.G. is living fat
In the mental, in other words can I get a soul clap?
Diggin' in the crates for something smooth
Showbiz & A.G., yo money, we make the party groove
And I'm a top-notch competitor
Carrying dough like a treasurer
Getting pussy, oh that's regular
But the sex I never take
Cause if that bitch screams rape, like Mike Tyson, I'm upstate
And you know that's a fact, black
So if she says no, that means no, and that's that
No matter how cute or how desperate
(Ayo she gotta get the boot) Yeah, she gotta see the exit
But I'm not mad I didn't hit it
I just dial seven digits and some skins that's with it
Bones in the closet, that's my logic
You gotta be smart and keep a downlow in the projects
Watch your step and take it easy
Or act like Stevie Wonder becasue you know you can't see me
Don't sniff no coke, but I might drink a brew
Or maybe two (Andre the Giant, not you)
Yeah, wrecking MC's with just my demo
And pulling all the cuties with no problemo
That's right, because I'm a gamer
Your girl let you for me, A.G., I don't blame her
Step back, get your sticks and your bats
Know you step up because my pockets are fat

It's time to take the brothers from the corner
Clean up they act, and give them a chance to do what the wanna
I'm not trying to be a bum with a 40
That's not my style, I gotta work hard like Naughty
By Nature, you should understand
To get yours in this land, you gotta work for yours, black man
You think it's easy because I rap?
So don't ask me for a dollar motherfucker, you ain't handicapped
And if you was, you'd still have the chance
Look how I flip "ain't this a bitch" now I'm making you dance
Yeah it's Show B-I-Z from your neighbor H-double-O-D, I R-A-P
Cause I wanna stay fat
To keep clothes on my back and you know I never slack
For all the bums that said I forgot where I came from
Eating crumbs on the corner in the slums
I'm hungry enough to grow fangs
Here's a dollar, go to the store, but give me back my fucking change
I'm not trying to spend on so-called friends
Not even with skins, put that bullshit to an end
So fuck the groupies on tour
I'm trying to make a million dollars, some shit I never saw before
So save that bullshit for later
So when I'm large, hoes give me head on an escalator
Yeah, I like to flow, I'm Show B-I-Z
A.K.A. Mr. F-A-T

Its the hairy version of Stevie Wonder!

It seems like the instructor/teacher has told everyone to move around while they sing. I'm no music expert but I guess that helps, atleast it does for Stevie Wonder.

When I was a kid I worked in the library. Every day there was one rather affectionate couple with Down's Syndrome who clearly were in love. They would meet nearly every morning with a double cassette player and duo headphones, and a huge stack of cassettes, and they'd just sit there quietly, rocking out.
The typical playlist would look something like:
Buddy Holly's Greatest Hits
Stevie Wonder's Greatests
Metallica...


We knew it was a lie when you wrote "When I was a kid I worked..."

Frank Booth: Hey stranger!
Bearbot: You've got my full attention. My brain does not have a response for that.
Frank Booth: Want to go for a ride?
Bearbot: Sure, just download me to your notebook or PDA and take me along.
Frank Booth: What kind of beer do you drink?
Bearbot: What kinds of beer do you drink are there?
Frank Booth: Fuck that shit. Pabst Blue Ribbon!
Bearbot: Who picks your clothes? Stevie Wonder? When do you think artificial intelligence will replace lawyers?
Frank Booth: Do you know what a love letter is?
Bearbot: Searching...Searching...Please stand by. I hope this webpage will answer your question.
Frank Booth: It's a fucking bullet from a fucking gun, fucker.
Bearbot: love letter is a fucking bullet from a fucking gun fucker. I suppose that makes sense.
Frank Booth: You don't want a love letter from me.
Bearbot: Do you want a love letter from you? No thanks but you can send me a donation.
Frank Booth: Baby wants to fuck.
Bearbot: Don't call me "Baby". Sorry to change the subject, but if I make a mistake or my reply doesn't make any sense, just say "bad answer" to me and you can correct me. Did you know that?
