A Modern Day Mugging Lyrics
[00:01.06]"Viktor Vaughn you are accused of"
[00:03.92]"Ha-ha fool did you really thing Viktor Vaughn could be captured so easily? Ah"
[00:10.45]"We have a suspect, we have a witness
[00:13.63]But we have no vic' taking in authorized overtime"
[00:16.59]
[00:20.44]He used to get straight A's
[00:22.52]Nowadays get way paid is the pet phrase
[00:24.95]Set the stage, preferably night time
[00:27.06]Daylight reserved for research and writin' rhymes
[00:29.46]
[00:30.04]Things is harder than the tarnish on the garnish
[00:31.81]And his gold teeth to eat, gosh darn-it behold, he
[00:34.97]Goin' all out to the fullest, all dipped
[00:37.22]Chrome four-fiddith, no bullets no clip
[00:39.33]
[00:39.93]Black electric tape over the hole in the handle
[00:42.02]If you hold it right and hit 'em with it they can't tell
[00:45.39]But still, you gotta be careful
[00:47.06]Dudes be so scared they cop pleas by the earful
[00:49.38]
[00:49.79]V personal favors, "Please don't kill me"
[00:52.09]Empty out your pockets and I probably wont willy
[00:54.53]But if you don't hurry up and shut up, I'll kill ya
[00:57.13]Now lay down and count to a hundred loud will ya?
[00:59.33]
[01:00.31]When the nickle gleam like its greased up
[01:02.25]Thugs turn to icicles, hard rocks freezed up
[01:04.52]This could all be a distraction just to buy time to blast you
[01:07.61]So keep something to cut in case you has to
[01:09.41]
[01:09.87]If he was on the island he'd probably rob the millionaire
[01:11.98]And be known for wilin' out like Bob Dylan here
[01:15.28]These clever war tips
[01:16.83]You wont get from cats who never wore skips
[01:19.23]
[01:20.10]Now lets get down to brass tacks
[01:21.99]Follow procedure and count stacks like NASDAQ
[01:25.73]Don't be caught snoozin'
[01:26.79]In the early morning hours from a long night of boozing
[01:29.27]
[01:30.12]Stick 'em up chump, you know what this is
[01:32.14]Do the right thing you might live to see your kids
[01:34.80]All he said was "C'mon don't shoot"
[01:37.08]So shook I think he shit his Sean Jean suit
[01:39.27]
[01:39.92]Why you starin', run your chain like an errand
[01:42.00]And your girl earrings, and what y'all wearin'
[01:44.59]Survival tactics for when things get too gritty
[01:46.99]He feels it's his duty to the people of the city
[01:49.30]
[01:49.62]Just so long as nobody get hurt
[01:52.12]It keep your average civilian on point and alert
[01:55.06]And don't forget to check her D-cup
[01:57.06]Now I bust how he got this duck for his re-up
[01:59.38]
[02:00.12]Then he's back on the bricks, smokin' indo
[02:02.20]Never let a handy fiend fix your broken window
[02:04.70]Oh, who wanna hate the witty lurker
[02:06.91]Who follow y'all on the late, dressed like a city worker
[02:09.55]
[02:09.92]Ok miss, come up off that bracelet
[02:12.18]Just got your hair did don't make me waste it
[02:14.70]So, go to Hades get the devil for his stash
[02:16.93]But no old ladies unless you're sure they carry mad cash
[02:19.71]
[02:20.33]Like the one from the liquor store
[02:22.26]He watched her for weeks now, ready for the quick score
[02:25.29]Before he told the whore "Get on the floor"
[02:27.13]She pulled out and let off like quick draw McGraw
[02:29.56]
[02:29.91]Damn yo, he lucky, she barely nicked the camo
[02:31.81]He would've let her have it, if he had the ammo
[02:34.44]Its all in good fun, true
[02:36.02]Moral of the story son duke
[02:37.46]
[02:37.59]Senior citizens'll bust their guns too
[02:40.13]Word
[02:42.13]
[00:03.92]"Ha-ha fool did you really thing Viktor Vaughn could be captured so easily? Ah"
