Roots - Pass The Popcorn lyrics
rate me[Black Thought]<br />
It looks like another one's comin around (3X)<br />
So the Black Thought gots to get down y'all, yeah<br />
<br />
* in background: "Pass the what? (Pass the popcorn)" 4X *<br />
<br />
It looks like another one's comin around (3X)<br />
So The Square Roots gotta get down, bust it<br />
<br />
Yo, I wrote this, basement, Never Never Tunnels type portion<br />
Just to accompany some audio distortion<br />
Bust the popcorn, drop it onto my cassette and<br />
Bust it, Kid Crumbs, how ya feel? (I'm feelin blessed man)<br />
Yeah, The Square Roots be the setters of examples<br />
Findin rhythm in the static of your samples<br />
Makin you move to the groove as we sooth<br />
The ear of the listener on the musical<br />
Prisoner G, now you're free you can be all you wanna be<br />
Go where you want or go and see all you wanna see<br />
Because yo, your ambitions I won't neglect<br />
And to the brothers who ain't here, nuff respect<br />
So BROther ?uest, how ya livin, what ya givin black?<br />
To me the brother with the linens and the applejack;<br />
Busy til the break of dawn<br />
The first verse is poured I pass the popcorn<br />
<br />
* in background: "Pass the what? (Pass the popcorn)" 4X *<br />
<br />
It looks like another one comin around (3X)<br />
So the Black Thought had to get down y'all, yeah<br />
<br />
* in background: "Pass the what? (Pass the popcorn)" 4X *<br />
<br />
It looks like another one comin around (3X)<br />
?uestion would you come and get down, bust it, c'mon<br />
<br />
[?uestlove]<br />
Check it out, secondly<br />
It's me the BROther ?uest from the S-Q-T (Square Roots)<br />
And he's Black Thought, the boy you know is (FUNKY)<br />
The rhythms I recycle sometimes prehistoric<br />
The mic for the popcorn's like it's metaphoric (metaphoric baby)<br />
So many different factors in the ?uestion's style<br />
Arrythmic by the end, I'm givin more than one child<br />
Abstract soloist comin from the heart<br />
All the way from Philly, from the West part<br />
Relax your mind and let your body be at rest<br />
Flow in slow mo', and let the BROther manifest<br />
Now the second verse has been pourn<br />
On to Kid Crumb I pass the popcorn<br />
<br />
* in background: "Pass the what? (Pass the popcorn)" 4X *<br />
<br />
[Black Thought]<br />
It looks like another one comin around (3X)<br />
?uestion ripped the set and got down baby, yeah<br />
<br />
* in background: "Pass the what? (Pass the popcorn)" 4X *<br />
<br />
It looks like another one comin around (3X)<br />
Kid Crumbs would you come and get down, c'mon<br />
<br />
[Kid Crumbs]<br />
Blessed is the next at the second still before the 4th is passed<br />
I'm gassed off the edible raps, and that's illegible<br />
Tommy used to bug, when I come around<br />
Screamin at the top of my lungs -- you gots to get down<br />
Now, they heard the sound and wanna give the kid a pound<br />
On the down low *whispering* Relax baby, keep it underground yo<br />
From the crown of notty hair that I wear to the funk feet<br />
Wonder why the sisters dig the brother missin five teeth<br />
Peace I gots to rock so pass the popcorn and shit<br />
Quick to lick a shot to umm, Wheezy, and Cricket<br />
Used to kick it in the house until I got myself evicted<br />
Now The Crumbs is restricted to the popcorn, elected<br />
From The Roots, I griff the rest and share the stash of popcorn<br />
Back to Black Thought, rock on (and on)<br />
And on (and on) and on (and on)<br />
And on (and onnnnnn), pass the popcorn!<br />
<br />

Kid Crumbs ripped the set and got down Baby Pah!<br />

It looks like another one comin around (3X)<br />
Black Thought, you know I gotta get down, bust it, yo<br />
<br />
Honey, glazed, amazed at the art Black Thought dis-plays<br />
I get mad props and the compliment pays<br />
Makin me more funky and it shows on stage<br />
Word right BROther cause I'm goin through a phase<br />
I wanna be a pioneer so trails I blaze<br />
Straight past the days when I used to be enslaved<br />
But don't eat all the popcorn BROther ?uest (What?)<br />
Yo BROther ?uest say it<br />
A bit for my hit makin it legitimate and give<br />
Credit to the attitude you set it don't forget well it's<br />
Gotta be live, cause that's the way I'm rockin it and<br />
Pop-corn is in my pocket then I guess it's rockin yo,<br />
The S-Q-T'n, Black Thought of seeing<br />
I know you're all agreeing, I'm rocking and I'm being<br />
Ripping another chapter, just for you to clap ta<br />
To the sounds of vexed I make you step just like a camper<br />
I pass, the popcorn, the mix I drop on the mic<br />
Gon', have you hummin my song, all the way home<br />
It's cool and as long, as you and the song, be mellowin out<br />
Together cause it's kind of peace I'm not embarrased<br />
As I pass the popcorn, and get off the dome<br />
Yo BROther ?uestion, yo Rubber Bandz Square Roots<br />
Take it home<br />
<br />
