Checkin' Out The Ave. - Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard[00:00:00]
Gotta check out the avenue[00:00:01]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:00:02]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:00:05]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:00:07]
Living in the big city not just New York every hometown[00:00:09]
Has a place where things are known for going down[00:00:12]
Where you can learn a lot of things that you shouldn't know[00:00:14]
It's a place where people tell ya that ya shouldn't go[00:00:17]
All the kids that go dere they end up misled[00:00:19]
Cause of a hardhead some of 'em turn up dead[00:00:21]
Mothers cry as they identify their child y'know[00:00:24]
In the morgue wearing a tag on their big toe[00:00:26]
I'm saying listen you should go to school and learn[00:00:28]
But fast cash and respect is what you wanna earn[00:00:31]
So you stand for days and days on the ave[00:00:33]
To make enough to get the things that you didn't have[00:00:36]
Getting five for the vial some two for seven[00:00:38]
But losing out on your childhood's what you're really getting[00:00:40]
But if that's the way you get respect I pity you[00:00:42]
Checking out the avenue[00:00:45]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:00:48]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:00:49]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:00:52]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:00:54]
Living in the big city the big city is where I come from[00:00:56]
Not the slums but where poor is many more than none[00:00:59]
A young man grows up and then grows to rump[00:01:01]
With the girls wild now got a child and he's stuck[00:01:04]
Dirt poor hits the block he's selling the rock[00:01:06]
Gets nabbed by the cops hits the cell block[00:01:08]
Listening to lou rawls while looking at the blue walls[00:01:11]
Of a jail cell cause he tried life and he failed[00:01:13]
So now the hardest job is keeping a smile[00:01:16]
Stay in line for survival in the penile[00:01:18]
This is your worst nightmare how cheery it isn't[00:01:20]
None of your family or friends don't even come to visit[00:01:23]
So you're forced into a line of behavior[00:01:25]
Cause you don't wanna catch scars from a razor[00:01:27]
And it's your fault you couldn't make it I pity you[00:01:30]
Checking out the avenue[00:01:32]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:01:35]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:01:36]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:01:39]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:01:41]
Checking out the avenue[00:01:44]
Checking out the avenue check it out[00:01:49]
The city never sleeps I stay awake 247 days a week[00:01:52]
Thinking bout all the things that I consider deep[00:01:56]
Literally ladies live life lonely singing the blues[00:01:58]
And to make matters worse the eye witness news[00:02:00]
From anything to everything that's under the sun[00:02:03]
What's next a mother using her son for sex[00:02:05]
Bad lives battered wives hiding they black eyes[00:02:07]
And then they decide their husband has got to die[00:02:10]
She's on trial there goes another broken family[00:02:12]
Unless she gets off on temporary insanity[00:02:14]
Then there's a single mother her man deserted her[00:02:17]
Two year old grows up to be a mass murderer[00:02:19]
There ain't nobody around that's left to raise 'em straight[00:02:21]
There ain't nothing we can do but sit back and wait[00:02:24]
A sad life to live some pity me too[00:02:26]
Checking out the avenue[00:02:29]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:31]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:33]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:36]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:38]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:41]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:42]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:45]
Got ta check out the avenue[00:02:47]
