The ’Wood

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Watchin' soft porn with Cindy In our basement livin' room We're takin' snappers from Granddaddy Just doin' what we do In a town called Inglewood Well, most folks would be afraid But to us, it's no big deal Just a typical kinda day [Chorus] In the 'hood (You wanna play craps?) [Verse 2] Well, there's gangsters, but they're friendly Because of my puppy I learned on my side of Crenshaw It's "wear blue" territory (Don't wear red) And shoppin' was a rip off When I lived on the west side (West side) Over here, it's way cheaper (Twenty-nine cents?!) And I'm blamin' it on the blight [Chorus] In the 'hood In the 'hood, I'm not lookin' for an award The only white girl on my block, and I'm not bored And no, I'm not a hipster, it's all I can afford In the 'hood (Barbecues every weekend!) [Interlude] Sha-na-na-na-na-na [Verse 2] The ice cream trucks competing With their songs throughout the day And on weekends, there are three But no tune they play is the same (They got Bomb Pops!) Every home's got barred up windows And pets they don't adore (It's disgusting) I rescued a sightless kitten (Meow) Every other fuck ignored [Chorus] In the 'hood In the 'hood, you never wanna point or stare (The fuck are you lookin' at?) In the 'hood, just find your set, and you'll fit in Unless you're some kind of poser with no street credit In the 'hood (Yeah, yeah) In the 'hood (Yeah, yeah) In the 'hood, in the 'hood It's where I live [Outro] In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!) In the 'hood! (When I'm!)
