Matti Elliott, Slick Vik, The D.U.C., Queen Latale, The Notorious A.V.I. - Sumerian Economy lyrics
[Matti Elliott, Slick Vik, The D.U.C., Queen Latale, The Notorious A.V.I. - Sumerian Economy lyrics]
Right about now, MWA court is in full effect
Judge DUC presiding in the case of MWA
Versus the Sumerian economy
Prosecuting attorneys are Notorious AVI
Matti Elliott and Slickram Vikram
Order, order, order matti, take the stand
Do you swear to tell the truth
The whole truth and nothing but the truth so
Help your Mesopotamian self?
You’re goshdarn right
Well, why don't you tell everybody what
The heck you gotta say?
8, 000 years ago in 6000 BC
Sumerians started trading
Sounds like bartering to me
Mesopotamians bartered with various goods
To many different cities
Or in AVI’s terms "hoods"
In Sumerian culture, trade was essential
Since they lacked materials such
As stone, wood, and metal
They traded with spices, teas, weapons
And food also with human skulls?
Which just seems kinda rude
It was later adapted by Babylon
As well as Phoenicia it just kept on growin’
My verse is almost over i must conclude
Mesopotamianz With Attitudes
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su- sumerian Economy
Pull your goshdarn butt over right now!
Aw shoot
Now what the heck you pullin’ me over for?
‘Cause I feel like it
Just sit your butt on on the
Curb and shut the heck up!
Man, freak this stuff alright, smart-mouth
I’m taking your mesopotamian
Butt to Gilgamesh slick Vik
Will you please give your testimony
To the jury about this messed up incident?
For a bit, bartering was lit
But Sumerian homeslimes found
This inconvenient they had no ways of trade
So they were lenient some people came along
And shared their plan of a currency system
Sounds good man sumerian, Mesopotamian
We’re MWA, not Wu Tang Clan
Sumerians adapted currency
They adapted, unlike avi
With the introduction of the currency system
Bartering and trade
Sumer started to miss ‘em
Bartering was brought back wasn’t removed
Instead it was just heavily improved
That’s all I have on the economy
So I’ll pass it to my slime queen LatAle
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su- sumerian Economy
Knocking yeah, man, what you need?
Gilgamesh, open now (Aww, shoot)
We have a warrant for Queen Latale’s arrest
(Battering ram)
Get down and put your hands right
Where I can see ‘em (Move freaker, move now)
Man, what the heck did I do
Man? What are y’all doin’?
Just shut the heck up and get
Your motherfreaking butt on the
Floor! (You heard the man, shut the heck up)
But I didn’t do anything
Man, just shut the heck up!
Queen Latale, won’t you step up to the stand
And tell the jury how you
Feel about this dumb stuff?
5000 years ago in 3000 BC
We went and made some coins
The start of currency
The coins were made of bronze, silver, tin
But these coins are kinda thin
People liked the coin 'cause they could
See what it was doing then came the shekel
People knew it was special
Made of silver, it could be minted
That’s not all, bogos binted
This was done in 650 BC
'Cause they found it not too easy
They also had these tokens made of clay
These are the ones the people used everyday
And that’s it from Queen Latale
Gonna pass the mic to Notorious AVI
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su- sumerian Economy
First, rings made of gold
This crap got old and converted into bullions
This was the first money
Discovered by Sumerians
Surpluses in the cities were
Collected in temples
A new system developed which
Kinda went mental not a british drill rapper
But I got dapper met this sumerian kid
And I might just slap her
I don’t ride no mules
I don't hang with fools
And as you all know, AVI’s here to rule
Whenever I'm rollin'
Keep lookin’ in the mirror
You might just see me strollin
Back of the club where I’m bowling
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su-
Sumerian economy, su- su- sumerian Economy
The jury has found you guilty
Of being a bartering, Sumerian
No good motherfreaker wait, that’s a lie
That’s a goshdarn lie get him outta here
Get him the heck out my face out right now
Freak you you Mesopotamian motherfreakers
