Life of the Party

Lyrics

[Phonte - Intro] Girl, whatchu MEAN you don't recognize me?! I'm only the biggest rap star in yo' apartment complex, eh! (Hahaha!) OH! Uh, uh... and another one My nigga Nottz on the beat...uh, and another one, c'mon [Hook 2X: Carlitta Durand] Everybody stop the presses Make way for the talk of the town Cause I'm the life of the party Take a look at me now! [Phonte] Uh, I'm the cow's milk, I'm the bee's knees I'm the life of the party, you know you see me And all my team in harmony like the Bee Gees Our name in bright lights like it's 3D People stop and stare, "Look what them boys got" We cain't afford Cris', frontin like we boycott We on the same page, we all on one accord Little do they know we all came in one Accord And them people get sad cause they thank we should be mad At all them niggas wit big money and big chains But the way I see it, as long as I don't blow Each and ev'ry year, I'll be the next big thang! Ten years later, niggas still on the verge Same gray Nissan sittin on the curb I know, you was thankin it'd be gettin on my nerves But maaan, goddamn, this feeling is superb! It's giving me the urge, to write this Even though I say it in jest, I'm not jokin in fact Some niggas spend they lifetime tryna headline But it's so much better bein your opening act So to all of my "Almost Famous" halfway Superstar niggas, we gon' rock up there We bout to get it started, I'm the life of the party You sheep-ass niggas can shut the +flock+ up, baaah! [Hook 2X] [Rapper Big Pooh] It's like, here we go, uh! Then we stopped "Oh we back on?" Then the album dropped Release date came, then the album flopped A stale piece of gum woulda had more pop So I'm headed right back to the shop The new Geto Boys, yo we can't be stopped Unless we standin outside at the spot I hear my record playin but nobody know about, uh Pooh and Tay, two boys from the South Who sounds so dope when these words come out! Standin in the cold, naw I ain't gold But I'm on the list, now I'm gettin pissed "Somebody's fired, who organized this? 'Getback' is a pretty cold dish!" Ha! So we in, went my way to the bar Had Goose lime juice, baby recognize the star The she pointed out one to two And ask me what I do, I'm like, "Yo, you not cute!" I told her, "Take the look at the suit! Wish I knew voodoo, I'd pulled a root On you folk, make you see what I see That Poobie is a star, he don't need TV" Then she said she don't even need me Picked up a drink, switched in the V.I.P., holla! [Hook 2X] [Phonte] I see you laughin at me (Ha ha-ha-ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha HA, ha-ha ha, ha, HAAAAAH) [Phonte cracks up laughing]
