Jump Ship
by: Down With WebsterCocky like I'm rich, even though I'm piss poor,
Cause I'm gonna get more shit than you can wish for,
It's straight to motown, passed on the big war,
Albums so dope I'm-a cop it when it hit stores,
You don't need nothing I can hit you up directly,
You're a golf ball and it's t-time, TETLEY!
We get big, real big, like a venti,
Blow you out the water on our entry, BOOM!
Direct hit, I'm never gonna miss,
Watch em jump ship, I bet they jump quick,
Direct hit, I'm never gonna miss,
Watch em jump ship, I bet they jump quick.
Cause they don't mean nothin', th-they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', but they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', they don't mean nothin',
I'm about to throw em outta the water, got a finger on the button!
Blowin' up like a cannon, watch me go BOOM!
Smash into the room like the kool-aid man,
Cause, we're the ship, you're the fist stuck inside a 6-pack,
Gettin' more chap every time you let your lips smack,
Killin' it, lit up like filaments, drinks I'm refillin' it,
Call me tech cause I'm billin' it,
Do your tab and there is no concealin' it,
Put a half a mill on it, then bounce like I'm fillin' it.
Direct hit, I'm never gonna miss,
Watch em jump ship, I bet they jump quick,
Direct hit, I'm never gonna miss,
Watch em jump ship, I bet they jump quick.
Cause they don't mean nothin', th-they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', but they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', but they don't mean nothin',
I'm about to blow em outta the water, got my finger on the button!
I'm gonna wave my flag, a whole new breed,
I'm gonna take your land and plant my seed,
Yeah, let 'em talk I got the swagger in my walk I said,
I got my hands up in the air just like I'm rockin'
I'm a lookin' for my next meal,
God damn you don't know who I am, the bitch slam,
Go back to standing in the outer field, man,
Take another swing and watch me hit it again.
They don't mean nothin', th-they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', they don't mean nothin',
I'm about to throw em outta the water, got my finger on the button!
They don't mean nothin', th-they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', they don't mean nothin',
Th-they don't mean nothin', they don't mean nothin',
