Kool Keith - Livin' Astro lyrics

Yeah every morning I wake up
Lookin' in the mirror
I am the original Black Elvis that's right
When you see me with my wig to the side
Wearin' my short leather jacket
Marilyn Monroe on my back
I'm livin' that life i'm for real with this
That's what I think about
I like to tell my fans

I got my shades on
Big rock star compared to Elvis
Signin' autographs for rappers while
Girls move they pelvis
Write songs strictly for Elton
John or Lionel Richie call up my butler
Get clothes washed by the maid
Ivory soap, dishes clean, feel like Cascade
I count the bills
Roll through Detroit in Sedan DeVille's
I throw my skully on


Big robe like Marvin Gaye
Step in the front row
Primetime I move your way
Budweiser Fest soundcheck
Demanding your respect
I come correct through the Metro
And turn y'all petrol
I'm up here early bitin' donuts
Sippin' on espresso
While you sleep, I creep
Gainin' ground by the week
Ampex reels, makin' phone calls
I'm closin' deals i move with skill
Ride through Philly streets and Cherry Hill
I'm doin' it well, I'm doin' it swell yeah

Flying saucers, spaceships move at warp speed
MTV level three when I fly on BET
Livin' astro, tell me how you feel
One two, one two

Movin roughly, straight to the desert
San Antonio
I talk swift the Rock King Black Romeo
I pack clubs, promoters put me out in Tokyo
Damage your area
I'mma launch a fierce missile i roast fools
Movin' butt like I'm toilet tissue
What is your issue? You over man
I don't miss you scottie soft
You play like Jan Van Breda Kolff
New Jersey Nets real man
You ain't no Darnell Hillman
Bald head like Slick Watts
I run rap like Mayor Koch
Forward your info while Tony
Liu crank the Benzo
Move out your driveway while girls look
Turn they eyeway jealous in fact
Tryna rip the capes off my back
I move with timing, potential
Through instrumentals
Y'all front on BET with slum gold
Drivin' rentals
I get real dino, runnin' groups like a rhino
Endin' careers, that's my job
Yo your rap is final cancel your in-stores
Your new job is moppin' floors
Fixin tiles, stoppin' potholes up on the roof
You work for service no tips
Man I speak the truth

Flying saucers, spaceships move at warp speed
MTV level three when I fly on BET
Livin' astro, tell me how you feel
One two, one two
Flying saucers, spaceships move at warp speed
MTV level three when I fly on BET
Livin' astro, tell me how you feel
One two, one two, one two

Pull your hoods down
I bumrush your afterparty
Have your manager scared
The radio station saying sorry
Pack your bags
I move my luggage to the coliseum
Infinite prime piece with statues
In the rock museum changin' my zones
Drinkin' cocktails on cellular phones
I tour with Anthrax through Texas
With the Rolling Stones
Booked by the agency
Famous artists payin' me
Hotels with fly room with sneakers
Starin' at the moon mad atmosphere
Ridin' first class on British Air
Lobster and steak, while y'all back in time
Doin' remakes
I'm futuristic, nine-nine, to the year 4000
I make announcements, drop skills
Then I bounce with
Fly young ladies, AMG kicks
Two thousand Mercedes
Brand new models, only seen one in Colorado
Light green metallic in the Shark Bar
Eatin' salad lorenzo wheels, valet park
Shoppin' in Beverly Hills
Step up your wildest spaceship kid
In the Plymouth Prowler comin' down

Flying saucers, spaceships move at warp speed
MTV level three when I fly on BET
Livin' astro, tell me how you feel
One two, one two
Flying saucers, spaceships move at warp speed
MTV level three when I fly on BET
Livin' astro, tell me how you feel
One two, one two
Flying saucers, spaceships move at warp speed
MTV level three when I fly on BET
Livin' astro, tell me how you feel
One two one two
