"Dead Or Alive" - TOO $HORT[00:00:00]
I heard there was a rumor Too $hort was dead[00:00:01]
Walked in the house and got shot in the head[00:00:02]
I know you don't believe it if you do you're wrong[00:00:05]
How can I die and rock it all night long [00:00:07]
I'm Too $hort baby spit that rap[00:00:09]
I put Oakland California on the map[00:00:12]
It's so hard got you telling lies[00:00:14]
Can't hold me back so you say I died[00:00:17]
It's incredible I came back to life[00:00:19]
I never let 'em bury me without my mic[00:00:21]
I keep breathing don't stop that breath[00:00:24]
Now everybody's talking about Too $hort's death[00:00:26]
Am I a zombie or something close [00:00:28]
I'm not Casper I mack all the ghosts[00:00:30]
Oaktown style is the only way[00:00:33]
I catch a new freak every day[00:00:36]
It's not the Yellow Brick Road it's called the Foothill Strip[00:00:38]
Stand on your toes make your heels go click[00:00:41]
Three times it's no place like home[00:00:43]
So why you wanna bury me all alone[00:00:45]
I bring a new meaning to underground rap[00:00:48]
Dead or Alive I'm still Born to Mack[00:00:50]
Always on the pop charts straight rapping[00:00:52]
I'm not dead I'm just macking[00:00:55]
So as the word turns I'm a living soul[00:01:07]
I even heard a rumor that I overdosed[00:01:09]
I'm not a reincarnation of something old[00:01:11]
Like King Tut I was buried in gold[00:01:14]
Why you wanna cry when I'm still living [00:01:17]
Word got out and the rumors started spreading[00:01:19]
My momma called one night[00:01:22]
Said "Todd are you all right [00:01:24]
The whole family's got the Too $hort blues[00:01:26]
I heard it last night on the evening news"[00:01:29]
And that's bad it's not even true[00:01:31]
I told my momma like this "Let's sue"[00:01:33]
So many times I heard I died[00:01:36]
I guess I'm like a cat and I got nine lives[00:01:38]
Well I'm the P-L-A Y-E-R[00:01:40]
I lay bunnies like Hugh Heffner[00:01:43]
I'm her flavor kinda saucy[00:01:45]
I lay back and let the young freak toss me[00:01:48]
Even if she don't like serving a pimp[00:01:50]
I'm still living so let's do it again[00:01:52]
I keep rapping hard as hell[00:01:55]
Cause your rumors make my records sell[00:01:57]
If you continue I'll soon be rich[00:01:59]
Riding around town going "Biiiitch "[00:02:02]
People always say "Too $hort can't rap"[00:02:14]
Now I drive a Benz and my bank is fat[00:02:17]
It's like crap put a "c" on a rhyme[00:02:19]
Ain't nothing left homie but a scandalous crime[00:02:21]
I'm the best damn rapper you could ever hate[00:02:23]
Say I died on the freeway in the earthquake[00:02:26]
Say I'm washed up say I'm through[00:02:28]
But the fact still stands I'm better than you[00:02:31]
You got rhymes Well I got more[00:02:33]
I take you on a trip to my rappin' store[00:02:36]
You find rhymes and raps poems and caps[00:02:38]
Way more raps than any rapper could rap[00:02:40]
Cause if you rap like me he wouldn't have to be[00:02:42]
Weak on the mic like my boy MC[00:02:45]
It don't stop to the funky beat[00:02:48]
I know you like dancing with a real big freak[00:02:50]
I can't dance but I sure can rhyme[00:02:52]
I sold a million in '89[00:02:55]
And if you didn't know baby it's the 90's now[00:02:57]
Old Short Dog got a new breakdown[00:03:00]
I went to Miko's fresh candy paint[00:03:01]
Now I'm doing things that the suckers can't[00:03:04]
If I was dead they'd call it "Dead Man's Rap"[00:03:07]
But on the real Short Dog is back[00:03:09]
Funk funky off the Parliament[00:03:31]
I'm still living so let's do it again[00:03:32]
It's incredible even if I die[00:03:36]
I never let 'em bury me without my mic[00:03:38]
I bring a new meaning to underground rap[00:03:40]
Dead or alive I'm still Born to Mack[00:03:43]
I say "What's up" to my homies in Santa Rita[00:03:45]
Right about now I know you need a[00:03:48]
Too $hort rhyme to get you through the day[00:03:50]
Oaktown style is the only way[00:03:53]
I came up and now I've sworn[00:03:55]
To rock this mic til I can't no more[00:03:57]
And that's game straight pop the most[00:04:00]
MC rapper from the West Coast[00:04:02]
Too $hort dead or alive[00:04:04]
I still chill on the Eastside[00:04:07]
Cause I remember how it all began[00:04:09]
House parties in East Oakland[00:04:12]
Now it's on the pop charts still rapping[00:04:14]
I'm not dead I'm just macking[00:04:16]
