I’m the cream of the crop, I’m the cock of the walk, From the bottom to the top, I’m runnin’ this block. ‘Cause I’m runnin’ the show, But I still want mo’(re), Not standing toe to toe, ‘Cause i’m runnin’ the show. Can’t afford to stop, So go ahead and mock, Use me as a prop, While all your ladies flock. ‘Cause I’m runnin’ the show, But I still want mo’(re), Not standing toe to toe, ‘Cause i’m runnin’ the show. ‘Cause I’m runnin’ the show, But I still want mo’(re), Not standing toe to toe, ‘Cause i’m runnin’ the show. I’m the bass in the drop, And I’m always on the clock, Best go grab a mop, ‘Cause I’m squeezing every drop. ‘Cause I’m runnin’ the show, But I still want mo’(re), Not standing toe to toe, ‘Cause i’m runnin’ the show. ‘Cause I’m runnin’ the show, But I still want mo’(re), Not standing toe to toe, ‘Cause i’m runnin’ the show.

Easy Peasy 03:03
Easy peasy nice and greasy, In the windy city it’s always breezy. Easy peasy nice and greasy, Though she may be dirty though she’s never sleazy. I say whoa, whoa, whoa, And it chills me to my bone. Well i’ve got some education, But I learn more from the streets. The only thing i’ve gots to gots to know, Is how to keep this funky beat. And I say whoa, whoa, whoa, Not just anybody knows. Easy peasy (Nice and greasy) Easy peasy (Nice and greasy) Easy peasy (Nice and greasy) Easy peasy (Nice and greasy) Easy peasy (Nice and greasy) Easy peasy (Nice and greasy) Easy peasy (Nice and greasy) Easy Peasy yeah Easy peasy nice and greasy, In the windy city it’s always breezy. Easy peasy nice and greasy, Though she may be dirty though she’s never sleazy. I say whoa, whoa, whoa, And it chills me to my bone. And I say whoa, whoa, whoa, Not just anybody knows.

Bike Shorts 02:40
(Bike shorts) On a hot afternoon, He’s got them (Bike shorts) Oh they help keep him cool, (Bike shorts) Oh they’ll put you in the mood, With them (Bike Shorts) You should see him in the nude Everybody gather ‘round and listen to them funky sounds, ‘Bout a man on a mission of the utmost importance, Searching for pants of incredible shortness. “There are no pants short enough for me, so I’ll just hang loose and let it hang free” I say, “Hell no, this cannot be!” But it was way too late, “Don’t look,1-2-3!” (Bike shorts) On a hot afternoon, He’s got them (Bike shorts) Oh they help keep him cool, (Bike shorts) Oh they’ll put you in the mood, (Bike Shorts) You should see him in the nude There has to be some compromise to the both of our sides, And the answer was right before your eyes and also right there between your thighs. You don’t style when you got spunk And you don’t need looks when you got this junk. Put on some briefs or some tighties of white, Say “They’re bike shorts” and everythings alright (Bike shorts) On a hot afternoon, He’s got them (Bike shorts) Oh they help keep him cool, With them (Bike shorts) Oh they’ll put you in the mood, (Bike Shorts) You should see him in the nude (Bike shorts) On a hot afternoon, He’s got them (Bike shorts) Oh they help keep him cool, With those (Bike shorts) Oh they’ll put you in the mood, He got them (Bike Shorts) You should see him in the nude

Ain’t got no time, To listen to you bitch and whine. Ain’t got no reason, To hate upon any given season. Ain’t got no rent, So you can just go get bent. Well I can’t give what I don’t got to ya, And if you don’t comprehend then the hell with ya and screw ya. Right on baby. Right on baby. Ain’t got no aim, To keep playing with your mind games. Ain’t got no point, So I might as well just smoke this joint. Ain’t got no excuse, To keep from just busting loose. Well I can’t give what I don’t got to ya, And if you don’t comprehend then the hell with ya and screw ya. Right on baby. Right on baby. Ain’t got no time, To listen to you bitch and whine. Ain’t got no reason, To hate upon any given season. Ain’t got no rent, So you can just go get bent. Well I can’t give what I don’t got to ya, And if you don’t comprehend then the hell with ya and screw ya. Right on baby, Right on baby, Right on baby, Right on baby.

Pipe Dreams 04:15
Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Spending all the money that I didn’t even have, On limousines, jetboats and blue velvet suits. I don’t trust banks, keep my money in a box, But I went and spent it all on fruit suits and hoots. But I don’t let no lack of money keep me down, Feet keep on runnin’ when I hit the ground. Chasin’ them Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Maximum withdrawal from the bank of mom and dad, Withdraw fees literally kicked me in the ass. So I’m out on the mean streets trying to get by, Feeling low means but living high class. I don’t let no lack of money keep me down, Swimming deep in debt trying not to drown. Chasin’ them Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, You’re giving me Pipe Dreams, Dreaming about a tour bus while sitting in my car, Wish I never had to haul a piece of gear. I’m pining for shows in other countries, But the funds don’t agree so I guess I’ll stay here. But if Josh is in the mood and if Scott is wearing pants, We’ll make the people get funky and dance. With our Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams, Pipe Dreams

Leanah 04:08
Leanah, Wanna lay it on ya. Show you that my mind is reeling, Tell you that my soul is screaming for your lust. Leanah, I know you wanna, Open up my world to see, That you and me were truly meant to be. But the distance between us has torn us apart. If I would have known would i have ever tried it from the start. It’s easy to see now you were the trap and not the pearl. I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Oh darling I bet you’re wondering What’s going through my mind, Thoughts of you aren’t hard to find. And darling You’ve got me crawling Crawling on my knees Begging baby please just see what you’re doing to me But the distance between us has torn us apart. If I would have known would i have ever tried it from the start. It’s easy to see now you were the trap and not the pearl. I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Leanah, Wanna lay it on ya. Show you that my mind is reeling, Tell you that my soul is screaming for your lust. But the distance between us has torn us apart. If I would have known would I have ever tried it from the start. It’s easy to see now you were the trap and not the pearl. I wouldn’t trade it for, I wouldn’t trade it for, I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Highway 5 04:11
Started out in Lethbridge, Colorado bound. Found good friends and family so we stuck around. With a quick ride we were Vegas wilds, But I couldn’t wait to be a California child. Cause highway 5 is getting funky tonight, Highway 5 promises to be one hell of a ride. Temperature gauge is high and the gas gauge is low. As long as I believe I’ll get where I need to go. South on highway 5 just trying to survive, Somehow I’ve never felt so very much alive. First it was Santa Cruz now I’m Portland bound, Time to load on up for another round. Cause highway 5 is getting funky tonight, Highway 5 promises to be one hell of a ride.

Get The Funk 05:26
Alright everybody listen up to the classic old story, you know, where you decide to throw a party at your parents house but then all of a sudden things they get a little way to out of hand. At first man you ain’t to worried about it, everyone’s dancing, they laughing, having a good time, but then you realize something, oh they having too good a time. It’s 3:30 in the morning man and this party ain’t slowing down for noone, and you just know you gotta shut this motha’ down before they burn this motha’ down. But here’s the thing about a rippin-roarin’ soiree man, when it’s a bumpin’ you just don’t wanna go. So nobody be listening to you man, and that nasty groove it just keeps rolling on. Here’s the thing, you know you trying to be a good host and show everyone a good time but they just walking all over you. That’s when you gotta speak up, put your foot down, and tell em’ Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk, (No way man), Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk I make my rounds through the party shit is getting out of hand, (We came to funk, we came to party) Chips and liquor on the floor slippin’ like quicksand, (Worked all week just to make some money) I appreciate you coming to our fancy shindig, (This right here is a hell of a wing ding) But we gotta shut it down do you feel me do you dig, (Whoa now buddy I’m not done drinking) Whoa you’ve got to go, Whoa hell no. Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk, (No way man), Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk Ain’t messing around don’t treat me like a fool, (You can’t stop what’s already started) I just saw a guy jump from the roof to the pool, (If you shut this motha’ down you’re stone cold hearted) Turn that down, put that out, the cops are probably on their way, (Hey man, let loose and get funky) I see my couch chillin’ on the lawn, someone’s gotta pay, (Not my circus, not my monkey) Whoa you’ve got to go, Whoa hell no. My memories erased, the kitchen tables on fire, (Not our fault, said he was a magician) This soiree’s hit it’s limit man we gotta retire, (I ain’t leaving til I’m hammered and my beer is missing) I see some headlights in the driveway, not the RCMP, (Come on man, you’re killing our groove) It’s my parents and they’re pissed and they’re back from Maui (Kick the tires, light the fires it’s time to move) Whoa you’ve got to go, Whoa hell no. Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk, (No way man), Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk, (All right man, we’re going), Get the funk, Outta my house, Get the funk, Get the funk, Get the funk, Outta my house
