Bubblegoose (Bakin' Cake version) - Wyclef Jean

When I was young, Mum bought me a guitar

A microphone an' she said I'd go far

She said, "Just keep it raw, the lyrics hardcore"

Listen to my talk an' get up, I'm on the corner with my

Hey kids, gather around, it's Wyclef an' Melky Sedeck

I got a story to tell, here we go

Sit right back an' hear a tale

Of a hustler 'round my way

Who used to clock around the block

From where my grandma stayed

Black BMW with rims to match

Windows bulletproof

One night, he jumped out the car

An' caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

You can be at the party gettin' loose

But you can catch a bullet in your bubblegoose

Hey yo, hey yo, my pen's in my hand

Okay, what should I write next?

Oh, yeah, an' if you don't know

Success brings stress

I'm vexed, my phone rings, collect call from Jeff

The operator say, "If you accept, say yes"

"Yes, what's the deal, son?", "Yo, I got bad news"

Yo, by the tone of his voice, I heard the ill street blues

"The friends will make you, then too can break you

They plan an execution like Fu Man Chu", "Who?"

"You know the character from Channel 5 Kung Fu"

"Slow down, man, Jeff, I'm losin' you"

"Hey, yo, your cousin Rohann", "Uh huh", "Who used to sell bang" "Uh-huh", "DT's found his hand in the back of Binnigans"

"What?", "In a plastic bag with a note attached"

"Sayin' what?", "A million an' a half or he won't be back"

"So meet me by the Brooklyn, 12 o'clock sharp"

"If not, at the funeral, you gotta play the harp"

Yo, why they wanna start an' make me play my part?

Don't they know like Sting, I could turn this murder into art?

I jumped into my car, there's gotta be a joke

Traffic's backed up, who's in town, the Pope?

S-s-someone blew the horn, I turned an' looked left

To my surprise, it was my sis, Melky Sedeck

Sit right back an' hear a tale

Of a hustler 'round my way

Who used to clock around the block

From where my grandma stayed

Black BMW with rims to match

Windows bulletproof

One night, he jumped out the car

An' caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

You can be at the party gettin' loose

But you can catch a bullet in your bubblegoose

You're shootin' in the opposite position, I'm thinkin'

"Should I fire or hold back on ammunition on your wig transition?"

My mission, like Take 6, is spread love

But all you screwed mugs got me wearin' black gloves

You up in my face, I see the fear in your eyes

You wanna feel the pain like a grown man gettin' circumcised

Shalom, shalom, pardon my left

But my right hand's on your throat, massagin' you to death

You provoke the cycle, call Michael

You're lookin' in the mirror, well, I'm in your window, oh oh

You hear me, Urkel, your blood will turn purple

Like the color, you holler, ballin' for your mother

No one hears you even though you knock

You used to walk around the block with the

Things done changed since your spark got hot

Now you got your knot wocked with your very own glock

Sit right back an' hear a tale

Of a hustler 'round my way

Who used to clock around the block

From where my grandma stayed

Black BMW with rims to match

Windows bulletproof

One night, he jumped out the car

An' caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

You can be witcha girl gettin' loose

But you can catch a bullet in your goose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose

You can be at the party gettin' loose

But you can catch a bullet in your goose
