All My Shootin's Be Drivebys

Ah yeah, that's right mother****ers!
I'm back riding a funky track.
I got a story to tell you all,
So listen up!
Yo! Trip on this!

Verse 1
I'm rolling through the hood on a Saturday night,
got a 40 in my left hand, my dick in my right,
some chronic in my lap, a pager in my cap,
and a 9 millimeter in the small of my back.
I'm just chilling no place to be,
I take another pull off my 40 z.
I'm thinking 'bout spinning a fat ass tree,
a B to the L to the U-N-T.

Then I get a call on my dope cell phone,
check the caller ID, what up homes?
Yo, it's the Doom and his news ain't good:
"little Pookie got capped last night in the hood."
I feel like the world is fading away,
I saw Little Pookie just the other day.
Pookie was my boy we shared Kool-aid in the park,
now some punks took his life in the dark.

I ask Doomsday who the mother****ers be,
"some punk ass bitches from MIT."
The ****ing Institute, man I should've known,
I say meet me at my crib and hang up the phone.
Playtimes over I got a job to do,
and the world will be less crowded by the time I'm through,
and I'll keep rolling while bullets fly,
cause all my shootings be drivebys.

Verse 2
One minute to midnight we hit the street,
cold as a cadaver, hard as concrete.
Doomsday's packing a baby Mac,
got my AK-47 and the nine in my back.
The Alpine's glowing, P-E's flowing,
got my swerve on tight and my game face showing.
Them damn punks are gonna pay,
the Hawks on the case a bird of prey.

Then up ahead cold chilling in the street,
six mother****ers from MIT.
I flick off the safety, check my grip,
and load a dum-dum clip.
I glance at the Doom to make sure he's packed,
his fingers on the trigger of his baby Mac.
Time to give a Newtonian demonstration,
of a bullet its mass and its acceleration.

Nine on my lap AK in my hand,
I roll up slow like a snake in the sand.
I wait till I'm sure they can see my face,
then I bust out slugs to the beat of the bass.
The streets sketched out in the full moon light,
MIT punks dying left and right.
There's nowhere to run don't even try,
cause all my shootings be drivebys.

Verse 3
Then silence hits the street like a bomb,
an eerie calm like the eye of storm.
Beneath the glow of an old street light,
dead MIT punks be the only sight.
6 mother****ers no longer alive,
and Pookie's been avenged 1 for 1 plus 5,
and we'll be long gone 'fore the cops arrive,
'cause all my shootin's be, Drivebys.


Ah yeah! I'm busting more **** than an incontinent man at a chili cook-off!
The moral of the story is:
Don't **** with the Hawkman, 'cause the Hawkman ain't down with that eye
for an eye bull****.
**** that! You take an eye and I'll take your mother****ing head!

snip the online courting

I'm not much of a romantic, unless the idea of going to a Slayer concert
is
your idea of romance. : )

Martha
it is mine...

Well now, I'd have to say going to a Shania Twain concert is romantic. I
saw her in December in Portland with a gal I was dating at the time. I'd
probably pass on the Slayer concert however, but I'd have to hear them
first. (I actually love blues.) I asked my son about them tonight, and he
said it's old style heavy metal. I like a lot of my son's music. That is
until they start screaming like they have a hot fire poker up their ass.
But most of the stuff he listens to I like.

I guess I'd have to say my idea of romance would be a nice dinner over a
couple of cocktails, then passionate sweaty sex for a couple of hours in
various places around the house.

Okay, it's time for you two to go get a room and spare us the courting
ritual.

Nobody knows. You can measure the effects, but you cannot fully predict

Nope. I don't buy it. Sclerosis of the liver, lung damage due to
smoking, and other damage from substance abuse are all documented
medical conditions and I would think some studies have been done about
the body's ability to repair or at least recover from that damage.
If, as you say, the effects can be measured, as can the improvements,
then statistics can be used to predict them. That's how studies work.

I'm talking '60s moreso than the '70's.

Demographics factor into that, too.

I spent many years sequestered in the Northeast woods. Those books
were handy at one time.

Cirrhosis of the liver does come to mind, but not sclerosis.

Anyway, while such conditions have been linked to substance abuse, it's
not possible to predict them reliably in people who engage in substance
abuse. Some alcoholics develop cirrhosis, some don't.

... and I would think some studies have been done about
the body's ability to repair or at least recover from that damage.

It's good that you would think that, but it sounds like you don't
actually know.

If, as you say, the effects can be measured, as can the improvements,
then statistics can be used to predict them. That's how studies work.

Statistics aren't very useful on an individual basis.
