Ugly Duckling - If You Wanna Know lyrics
[Ugly Duckling - If You Wanna Know lyrics]
My mother told me if you got it
There's no need to flaunt it
Cause everything I'll get depends on just
How bad I want it
I said this to myself one day
Minding my own beeswax
When this big, buff tough guy stepped to me
And I'm like "Ease back, sleezestack!"
Before I knock your big butt silly
He then pulled out a gun
I gave him a hug and said "Don't kill me"
You don't wanna waste a bullet
On a bum like me, scum like me
I want my mommy, help me somebody
He started pulling my arm and jerkin me (Oww)
Stop it man, you're hurting me
Reminded I had a gun to my head
So I said ok certainly, you the man
(Need a hand?)
Where's Superman when you need him?
Should I feed him a knuckle sandwich
Or play possum and stop breathing?
I'm leavin
Competition's cool and all of that
But, I didn't get into rap to be attacked
I'm packin my backpack strap to
Bust a thinkin cap
And just laugh at the people who
Don't know how to act
See the derailed hate the on track, in fact
Alone they cower
So the blind bind to find power
That's why I'm lookin out like the Hubble
Telescope lens for the trouble
See when you're as tight as Bowser's trousers
Or "Saturday Night Fever" slacks
Macks and G's attack, hopin you flee
Steady mobbin like Robinson Crusoe
It's as primitive as can be
Now if you (if you) wanna know (wanna know)
The real deal about the crew
Well, don't you know (don't you know)
We're Ugly Duckling
And we're doing it just for you
I said, if you
(if you) don't know (don't know)
The real deal about the crew
Well, don't you know (don't you know)
We're Ugly Duckling
And we're doing it just for you
Sometimes I feel I've got to run away
I've got to find a place to
Play like my own sandbox
So I can do a Mr spock
(and use my Vulcan mind)
To leave the grit and grind
Behind the foul line
Shootin two, who's the owl giving a hoot
(Not you) help Woodsy spread the word to
The so called nerd
To stay Huffy tough luff or
Get knocked on his duff by a vulgar ogre
Holder of all the hall passes
(Who broke into my locker and
He smashed my glasses)
Courage fled Herman's head but it was
Too late to back out
He took my lunch sack and went
To the rack like Jerry Stackhouse
(Oooh!) blackout, out comes the mouthpiece
But the Mick he quickly picked me
Back up on my feet i said, look over there
(Over where?) over there he looked
A left hook had him shook
(That's the oldest trick in the book)
I followed through with the 1, 2
Knockin him on his keister
Then leavin the barrio I said
("Adios mister")
Pale rider, saddle bags tied tight
(Happy trails) into the night
Now if you (if you) wanna know (wanna know)
The real deal about the crew
Don't you know (don't you know)
We're Ugly Duckling
And we're doing it just for you
I said, if you
(if you) don't know (don't know)
The real deal about the crew
Don't you know (don't you know)
We're Ugly Duckling
And we're doing it just for you
Don't you know (don't you know)
We're Ugly Duckling
And we're doing it just for you
Don't you know (don't you know)
We're Ugly Duckling
And we're doing it just for you
There's no need to flaunt it
Cause everything I'll get depends on just
