Chubb Rock - The Night Scene lyrics

rate me

The night time is an ill time cause nuff crime

happens that never gets aired on the prime

TV stations, public relations

gives the okay for what gets aired in the nation

You got the whole world lookin at "I Love Lucy"

Talented bitches on the corner sellin pussy

A variety'll give your friend for a 10=spot..

.. Christians doin rimshots!

Do more heads than barbershops will

Open their legs to the public for a meal

Damn it's a shame, the shit looks unreal

College graduates sometime kneel

Check out the crack scene over there

Those two motherfuckers gonna make about a million this year

Sell to their friends for a Benz

Kill their race for a taste

for what they call or see as being the good life

Gold nuggets, lots of ducats

Beeper number 1-800-Asshole

Sellin stone so we can see your bones

cause most crackheads don't have fat legs

Skull all soft, it can crack like eggs

You fiend for the flavor, steal for the hit

Grandma's walkin home, so you bust her shit

Send her to the hospital - for twenty bucks

Beam for a half an hour - that's fucked

Other (?) your high, for a few stay low

Ten minutes later, you need some blow

So you'll eventually croak - maybe by a stroke

You don't want the good life - no you want coke

Now come the robbers, they just steal

They move like cats - some on crack

They'll vic anything up to Jeeps

These motherfuckers play for keeps

They'll do anything that's on their mind

They come nine deep, plus pack nines

They don't care - won't shed no tears

Don't try to appeal for pity cause it's silly

They wear Polo coats, baseball caps

The elderly is the main course and the snack

These young kids that leave their cribs

hang on the streets, then these squids

slide up on the scene with a certain lean

and then slide out but they're countin your green

And now you're vexed and you want to redeem

but it's a different world with different rules:

The night scene

Yo baby check this out

Times is gettin kinda hard, youknowhatI'msayin?

Yo bitch, you gonna have to get me some serious money

out this motherfucker, youknowhatI'msayin?

You better go out there and,

find some friends for five dollars or some shit

Cause y'know, if I don't get my money

you know what's gonna happen right?

Somebody gonna get hurt out this motherfucker

You know that, you know that

The night time is a different time to flow

You gotta know the rules or they'll let you know

Your heart can't take the pressure, of the scene

Periphreal vision and decisions must be keen

Cause this is a place that's far from clean

Apocalypse Now - but later on you say it's a dream

But it's not a dream, it's reality

Stand on the corner and you're a goner

Go home and chill under your mom's wing

I will sing, hopefully bring

a new alternative to make some green

But stay home - not the night scene - come on!

WHAT? Yo where the motherfuckin money at huh?

Nah I don't wanna hear nuttin about no

college and tuition shit

I just want my motherfuckin money - NOW BITCH!

So let's do this alright?

You ain't holdin out tonight

cause I'll fly that motherfuckin head

right about now, okay?
