Snoop Dogg - Vapors lyrics

Can you feel it, nothing can save ya
For this is the season of catching the vapors
And since I got time, what I'm gonna do
Is tell you how it's
Spreading throughout my crew
Well you all know Nate Dogg
Who sings on my records
"Never Leave Me Alone", "Ain't No Fun"
Now check it
Back in the days before Nate Dogg began
He used to try to holler
At this girl named Pam
The type of female with fly Gucci gear
She wore a big turkish?rope? with
A weave in her hair
When they tried to kick it, she'd always fess
Talking about, "Baby please
You out here serving stress"
Since he wasn't no type of big chronic dealer
The homie Nate Dogg didn't appeal to her
But now he wear boots that
Match with his suit's
And push a Lexus Coupe that's extra cheap
And now she stopped fronting and
Wants to speak and be coming round the Pound
Every single weekend
To get his beeper number
She be begging please
Dying for the day to eat these

She caught the vapors she caught the vapors

I got a little cousin that's kinda plain
He bring the heat with the beat
For the Dogg Pound gang
A mellow type of fellow that's laid back
But back in the days he
Wasn't nothing like that
I remember when he used to scrap every day
When my auntie would tell him
He would never obey
He wore his khakis hanging down
With his starks untied
And a blue and grey cap
That said the Eastside
Around my neighborhood the people
Treated him bad they said Daz was the worst
Thing his mom ever had
They said he would grow up to
Be nothing but a gangster
Or either in jail, or someone would shank him
But now he's grown up to their surprise
D-A-Z got a hit record slanging worldwide
Now the same people that didn't
Like him as a child
Bumping Dogg Food, Doggfather, and Doggystyle

They caught the vapors
They caught the vapors

I got another homie from tha L-B-C
Known to y'all as DJ Warren G
He cut, scratch, transforms with finesse
Scratching and all that mess
I remember when we first started to rock
He tried to get this job
At Calvin's Record Shop
He was in it to win it, but the boss fronted
Said "Sorry Warren G but
There's no help wanted"
Now my homie Warren still tried
On and on and on til the like break of dawn
To work at tha V-IP would be the lick
But they looked right past him
So my homie straight dipped
Now for the year after Regulate
Warren G is having papers so
My homie's like straight
He walked into the same record shop as before
And the boss be like "Warren
Welcome to my store"
Offering him a job, but nah he don't want it
Damn it feels good to see people up on it
Cause, I remember when at first they wasn't
Now guess what they caught since he busting
The vapors

They caught the vapors
They caught the vapors

Last subject of the story is about Snoop Dogg
I had to work for mine to
Show I was a true hog
When I was a teenager I tried to be down
But since they wasn't trying to hear
Me I made the Dogg Pound
I saw a crew on 2-1 street and said
"Can I be down champ?" they said no
And treated me like a wet food stamp
After getting rejected
I ain't run off the set
I sat and wrote some Dogg doo
Doo rhymes at my rest
When I used to go to parties
They'd make me wait
Would have to beg to get on
The mic to set MCs straight
I ain't never love no hoes I
Was just into my music
They acted like I wanted to keep
On hanging with the juzi
But now things switched from West to East
"Yo dog do you remember me from 21st Street
G? We used to see Daz back in the day"
It happens all the time
So brother don't be amazed

You caught the vapors you caught the vapors
