You know, I don't see why ODB
Isn't celebrated as all that we're trying to achieve
With his child-like topics that he's rapping about
And some sing hey-dee-ho's, he don't leave a doubt
That if we were all a bit more like Ol' Dirty
We'd still be fully backward, but at least completely free
Free to sing about Jacques Cousteau
Who couldn't get this low (AHH)
What? Whatever that means
It would still be better than those little old wickedy creamity schem-ity schemes
Played by the man on top, uh!
Said, "pop," get that Osirus in full stop
If he weren't dead of course
But what's worse?
The dudes in there now?
The partisan Plow?
Or Dirty's hip-hop resource?
To stick it - To stick it -
Dirt McGirt's out in full force
Run ODB, run, run for me
For the ones left behind and the problems of our times
Baby come one, step to me
It's not the Brooklyn Zoo
But rather it's the whose who
Of do nothing, blame others, smoke and mirrors and fool you
If the ODB step in that mess
I'm not sure what would improve or be of interest
But certainly the propositions of the ODB will not be seen
As inferior to those of the rest of that glee-filled and pathetic theater
'Cause Ol' Dirty's got to be somebody (Be somebody)
Practice that art that we know from his party
And if we had him in there, we'd still be nowhere
But at least the dude would give us a reason to stare
'Cause his antics is crazy
And like the others "concerned greatly"
He don't even care that there's so much "stunt flyin' up there"
News Cast:
Russel Tyrone Jones, also known by his stage name Ol' Dirty Bastard, or by any of his other stage names Dirty, Dirk McGirt, Big Baby Jesus, the Specialist or simply ODB, declared his candidacy for the House of Representatives for New York's first district two weeks ago.
Pushing a platform built heavily on unintelligible utterances and wild ranting, the voters at his rallies say his message, although vague, resonates more than that of the other candidate.
For his part, Jones's opponent has gone negative. But his message has gained little ground with voters.
Despite the negative barrage, Jones continues to draw riotous applause at his rallies. In fact, most spectators know the words of his, at times, incoherent chants and often sing along with the congressional hopeful as he ambles across the stage, red-eyed due to apparent lack of sleep while on
the campaign trail.
