Aw man Put that ol' dumb horn down

Hey Jazzy

Jazzy Show this boy what some real music 'posed to sound like

He-he-ha 1-2-3-4

Now that's a record

Now that's a record

Go Jazzy go

Jazzy go

I want to be remembered for the songs that

I sing Not only for the humor but for the knowledge

I bring To broaden the horizons of others is why

I rap this

Enlightening minds with my lyrical tactics

In life everything ain't always what it seems

But people are enchanted by things that gleam

You know bright fancy cars big yachts and mansions

On the beaches of

Aruba with a girlie romancin

Now I'm about to tell you a very artistic fable

More fun than when you first got cable

The moral to be learned from this story to be told

Is that everything that glitters ain't always gold

On July 11th

I was sittin at home

Talkin to my girlfriend

Geena on the telephone

Flippin through the newspaper checkin the news

When I saw an advertisement for a

Carribean cruise

It said '

Sunny skies and romantic nights

On an incredible ship' and

I got hype

It said it's like the

Love Boat baskin in the sun

Promisin fun for you and for everyone

I said That's dope Baby you're down

She said Yeah we could leave right now

The very next day

I put the check in the mail

And one week later we were ready to sail

The brochure said that the boat was large

But it was nothin but a broken-down barnacle barge

And if it wasn't for my girlfriend

I wouldn'ta went

Because the captain was a cross-eyed hunchback with a limp

The cruise was paid for and the food was free

So I said what the hell and set out to sea

It didn't take long to notice something was wrong

The ship was a mess and we were the only ones on it

I didn't wanna panic so

I chilled for a while

Till the captain pulled up to what we thought was a deserted isle

We looked on to the beach and almost went bezerk

We saw 300 natives with spears and grass skirts

The said Hung-a-dung-a-digi-dung-da-doa

I said Hey baby I guess that means get off the boat

Their chief said they needed a human sacrifice

I said Well just take my girl - he-he - syke

I was jokin but things got serious

Their leader came out and he was curious

He got in my face and his breath was the worst

I said Hey baby you got some mints in your purse

His breath was stinkin with filthy brown teeth

And two big crusty ashy hairy feet

The worst thing he had no toenail on his toes

And a big

Teradactyl bird bone in his nose

I tried to reason with him he wasn't with it

He said Tenga-shanko that meant 'forget it'

He said Gunga-shang-tang-da-bong-da-boo

That meant 'tonight we're having

Fresh Prince stew'

Then I saw it - no it's not

The big Indiana

Jones people cooking pot

I wanted to fight em but there was no way to beat em

I thought to myself '

Where's Tarzan when you need him'

Just as they were contemplatin cookin us up

We had a major struck of luck

a Navy ship pulled up

The troops came off and they got us out of the pot

And I said to the chief Yo I get witcha hops

The guy that rescued us said

I hate to tell you The captain of your ship

he had just escaped from Belview We've been following him and finally

we got him We're sorry

there's no way that you can possibly get a refund

A thousand dollars and a weekend island drained

But a lesson well learned so let me explain

There's a very important message that needs to be told

It's that everything that glitters ain't always gold
