A Bird In The Hand (得手) - Ice Cube (艾斯·库伯)[00:00:00]

Written by：William CollinsRonald/DunbarO'Shea/JacksonMark/JordanGeorge/ClintonDonnie/SterlingGarry/Shider[00:00:00]

Hey look at this[00:00:00]

I was cleaning out my nest[00:00:01]

And I found a book of my old poetry[00:00:03]

Fresh out of school 'cause I was a high school grad[00:00:15]

Gots to get a job 'cuz I was a high school dad[00:00:17]

Wish I got paid like I was rappin' to the nation[00:00:20]

But thats not likely so here's my application[00:00:23]

Pass it to the man at AT&T[00:00:25]

'Cuz when I was in school I got the a e e[00:00:28]

But there's no s e for this youngsta[00:00:31]

I didn't have no money so now I have to hunch the[00:00:33]

Back like a slave that's what be happenin[00:00:36]

But whitey says there's no room for the African[00:00:38]

Always knew that I would boycott jeez[00:00:41]

But welcome to McDonalds[00:00:44]

Can I take your order please[00:00:45]

Gotta sell ya food that might give you cancer[00:00:47]

'Cuz my baby doesn't take no for an answer[00:00:49]

Now I pay taxes that you never give me back[00:00:52]

What about diapers bottles and similac[00:00:55]

Do I gotta go sell me a whole lotta crack[00:00:57]

For decent shelter and clothes on my back[00:00:59]

Or should I just wait for help from Bush[00:01:02]

Or Jesse Jackson and operation Push[00:01:05]

If you ask me the whole thing needs a douch[00:01:08]

A masengel what the hell cracker sale[00:01:10]

In the neighborhood[00:01:13]

To the whorehouse b**ches[00:01:14]

Miss porker little joe or Todd Bridges[00:01:16]

Or anybody that he know[00:01:19]

So I got me a bird better known as a kilo[00:01:21]

Now everybody know[00:01:24]

I went from po' to a ni**a that got dough[00:01:26]

So now you put the feds against me[00:01:30]

'Cause I couldn't follow the plan of the presidency[00:01:32]

I'm never givin' love again[00:01:35]

'Cuz blacks are too f**kin broke to be republican[00:01:37]

Now I remember I used to be cool[00:01:40]

Till I stopped fillin' out my W 2[00:01:43]

Now senators are gettin' hired[00:01:46]

And your plan against the ghetto backfired[00:01:48]

So now you got a pep talk[00:01:51]

But sorry this is our only room to walk[00:01:53]

'Cause we don't want a drug push[00:01:56]

But a bird in the hand is worth more than the bush[00:01:58]

Tell the politicians the hustlers live and let live yeah[00:02:06]

Tell the politicians the hustlers live and let live yeah[00:02:12]
