If It Ain’t One Thing It’s Anuddah (Bruddah)

Lyrics

[Intro: Prince Markie Dee] Man, all these problems in our world today I just don't know what to do, man [Verse 1: Prince Markie Dee] If it ain't one thing, it's another Sell a million copies? They put me on a magazine cover I sell one or two, they claim that I'm played out My girl nags me at home, so I shoulda stayed out I buy a new car, it runs out of gas In school, I was always gettin' kicked out of class Mom would say, "Be like your older brother!" If it ain't one thing, it's another [Interlude: Prince Markie Dee] You know what I'm sayin', man? I mean, all these problems Let me tell ya `bout the time when I Well, let me break it down for ya [Verse 2: Prince Markie Dee] Picked up my date at eight in a happy mood Drove to City Island for some seafood $3.99 for all you can eat Shrimp galore, bon appétit We ate hearty 'till we couldn't eat Went to the Marriott, paid for a suite She was anxious even more that me And, man, I got busy as a bumblebee When we were done, I drove her home Proceeded to my house, all alone It started rainin', I was playin' Bobby Brown I missed my exit, so I circled around And that's when it happened, I didn't get far A pole jumped in front of my car I broke my leg, man, do I stutter? If it ain't one thing, it's anuddah, bruddah [Verse 3: Kool Rock Ski] On tour for so long that it wears me down I've been to every city and every small town And, after a while, things start to ache I want my body to move, that damn thing won't shake Then, one night, the last date on tour From that morning, my throat was sore I started gettin' worried, it wouldn't be long 'Cause the way my throat was hurtin', it would soon be gone Then, wouldn't you know? You know it, yes I tried to say somethin' but I was voiceless Showtime came, I had to lip-synch It got so wild that I couldn't think The show was done, a doctor checked my health I spent the night all by myself Man, what a bummer, what did I stutter? If it ain't one thing, it's anuddah, bruddah
