Asher Roth – Cannon

you know the world's gone mad when blacks wear plaid
and mariah has married nick cannon
or when a boy from the burbs has the nerves to converge
on a mixtape with dj cannon

aw goddamn it
thats the last straw, can't stand it
you all must be reprimanded
spank that fanny, manny, so uncanny
ginobli flow left handed

yes i am a fan of dakota fanning.
and i am sam - outstanding
my sean pendmentship is fancy
yeah, my rhetoric is dandy
i circumvent my words, and vent for the burbs
i have emerged ad venti
dos anos, vamos, pronto, let's go
her lipgloss tastes like candy

got more jazz than jerry sloan,
pizzazz and swagg alone,
i have a bigger head that that of barry bonds;
y'all eat scraps, i eat salmon
with fresh fruit, covered in dannon
if da boy had a boy with brad pitt in troy,
then out from the loins, i'd be born.
if jason bourne was to record and join forces with zack morris,
they'd form my performance

beats and rhymes fornicate, form greatness,
like, "let's face it, he's so amazing"
yeah, with lasiks, he still can't ace my eye exam
nah, man, let's try again
i've got lungs like iron man
i hit the bong, while you must extend your diaphragm
but, let's get higher, man
i gotta a brand new strand that i got out in ireland
from a wild, frantic irish man,
who said his name was shannon

higgins, killians, and a pint of guiness,
and i aint gon' stop til i'm finished
til i learn yiddish, or find a little kid who likes spinach
can't nobody beat me in quidditch
not any widditch, spidditch, wits, i'm sick wit it,
riddidick, my spit game is vicious

disses never did shit for my image;
college kid is where i found my niche, snitch
tell the whole world i'm the shit, un-
tell the whole world on my dick, then
hell yeah, word, i'll be rich, and
i'll buy the whole world sega genesis
spittin lint to come,
hell yeah, i got a cannon
see me on the streets, take a pick with yo cannon
then get it laminated, frame it, save it,
cause in a couple days, i'll be famous

then you can say, "holy shit, there he is! that's the kid!
i forget what his name is... starts with an 'a', ends with a 'sher'."
bringing hip-hop into the burbs
