| Dear George
|
| This may seem a little premature
|
| But let me inform and reassure you what I’m here for
|
| See:
|
| There’s three of four MCs I simply adore
|
| And I can’t really afford for them to be ignored
|
| They rap with purpose, challenge your belief and more
|
| Than scratch the surface, Grand Wizard Theodore
|
| You see, I hear you perform
|
| And then I feel all tingly and warm
|
| Like these things are seeing porn
|
| Therefore:
|
| I thought it’d be mint if we recorded
|
| So if you want to do this thing, give me a call, it’s
|
| Another pale kid sitting in his bedsit
|
| Spinning syllables in a ball, it’s a head trip
|
| I want to give props, though I’m not often a dick sucker
|
| And it isn’t often that I kiss butts
|
| Yes, but it isn’t often that I hear lyrics bringing this stuff
|
| So let me pucker my lips up and give love
|
| Your subtle lisp just gives a certain crispness
|
| To your presence, like red ribbon at Christmas
|
| You lyrically bring a vision, images and pictures
|
| To widen the line of our sight like strabismus
|
| Listeners reminice for the time
|
| Rap was a little bit deeper than just the meniscus
|
| You must have missed or dismissed this missive
|
| That insists on simplistic lyrics to get hits
|
| 'Cause our business is a harsh mistress
|
| When MCs receive more spins than a discus
|
| But the chips don’t stack quick, I’m left listless
|
| So I might just get down with the thickness
|
| But hold on, there’s another way
|
| Watch, see?
|
| You can be a geek like me, Watsky
|
| Or any other bugger keeping it real
|
| With stuff for people to feel
|
| Regardless of if it leads to a deal
|
| The secret to really having fun for yourself
|
| Is to differentiate between money and wealth
|
| I spent years trying to be somebody else
|
| And then I realised it wasn’t good for my health
|
| Rap’s in need of a bit of positivity
|
| So maybe a love letter is a good place to start
|
| 'Cause I love letters (hah)
|
| Hey George, George
|
| Isn’t rap fun?
|
| It’s like weaving a tapestry of language
|
| I luv it
|
| Why don’t more people do this?
|
| Imagine if the great musicians, playwrights, poets of the past
|
| Had this technology at their disposal
|
| What would they do with it? |
