[Intro]
This story you are about to witness is only... the beginning
[Verse 1]
Kids, gather 'round the fireplace
All the kids, gather 'round the fireplace
That's right, Tommy, you too
Mr. Nogatco
Billy, come on, everybody gather 'round, Shelly?
As a child growing up collecting marbles and roaches
Little insects was my pets
Lightning bugs under my sneakers
Scraped on the concrete
The green streaks light up the rugs
The mouse collector, with Big Blow Bubble-Gum
Y'all remember, Jolly Ranchers, Apple Green
Mouth full of a hundred Bazookas
Brown bags with Lemonheads and Bubble Yum
Kids walking up the street
Sour pickles
Look at the kids, strange
My mom would go to school, P.T.A. meeting
Teachers quote "He's strange"
He's very spacey, he's a wizard kid, incredible
With a Captain Kirk and Spock shirt on
He's out of range
[Hook]
The Alpha and Omega (x4)
He's out of range (he's out of range)
I continued my quest for the top words
Parental advisory made me a big curser
I only got better, critics thought my career got worser
Creating the stuff no rapper even done
Twenty guys in one, different alter-egos
Flyin' on planes to exotic places, havin' fun
Rap was invented, I made it son
But after that, I was the Chairman of the Celestial Division
I was the first position
I was Bobby Brown of my group, just like New Edition
8 million songs recorded, check the store
For everything I put out they re-ordered
[Hook]
I didn't spend too much time, like some guys
Eat and die by the websites
Perverts and k**ers on the chat line
In reality? I hate that line
2000 billion people bored to d**h
Moving a mechanical mouse up and down
Cities all over the world, get a life
Turn off your Apple
Take a shower
800 pound women, stop hiding behind the computer
A nice voice is deceiving
I want you to gain confidence and come downtown
[Hook]
