Fat Chance Lyrics

311

(intro)
You know Im ready, yes to rock steady
My names not betty or teddy, but nick
And Im what you might call a heretic
Yes, and I am from nebraska
My girl is satisfied, you can ask her
You know Ive never visited alaska
Huh, where the oil was spilt
That drunken captain should be killed
For polluting the sea, an atrocity
He still walks free, well
This one goes to all the birds that drown
Fuck the bullshit its time to throw down - (4x)
Just fuck the bullshit ?
Its time to throw down and so I said it words of
Wisdom that will keep you guessing cause
Im tired of laying and Im tired of messing around
With all those suckers
Yes, those stupid mother fuckers
Who put down what we do
We stand alone with the group thats new
If I was a dwarf, Id surely be dopey
Im a stone wheat thin you can not culture
Kick in the teeth a condescending frown
Fuck the bullshit its time to throw down - (4x)
Yeah, right about now Id like to turn the mic over to my man, sa martinez
I am sly in the mix I am the mix master
Death and destructor, lyric conductor
Rollin with the rhythm of the rhyme Im rollin
? ? ? ? ?
Tim, he leads guitar, hes got the jets
Now the b-boys rockin breakin moves on the floor
311s stepping out and youre yellin for more
Im hoping, Im poetry in motion
? ? ? ? ?
P-nut, the bass drum is booming
And in your mouth the rhythm is booming
P to the n to the u to the t
Just fuck the has-beens and their stupid-ass rambling
Brothers saying bullshit you cant come through with
Do it in the basement no complacence
Its time to kick the fuck in
Begin to win no sin and then
Share it, declare it in the public domain
Refrain
Id be perfectly glad if rap was a fad but its not
So Id thought Id come out with a shot
Super dumb lyrics make you think Im a clown
I dont give a fuck its time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit its time to throw down - (4x)
Thats right, knockin them down
Nineties, all that
