The Party - Funky DL

Verse One

I didn’t have no money

But my friend called me and he told me bout' a party

Whose going?

He told me everybody

So I put on my Pierre Cardin cardy

I gave a quick call to Charlene

But her sister picked up told me that she’s busy sorry

I made my way to the party

Nuff' people inside we packed like sardines

They playing Talib Kweli

They played Bob Marley and even Gnarles Barkley

Now they playing «Ladi Dadi»

We don’t cause trouble we don’t bother nobody

Bre’s' acting like they just joined the army

I spotted three girls sitting in the corner calmly

All dressed up like Barbie

The middle one was Asian and she had a nice body

Sipping lime and Bacardi

I’m looking in her eyes they’re saying «charm me, charm me»

So I said «pardon me

I love the way you smile girl you’re sweet like honey»

Her friend said «don't waste your time honey

She doesn’t speak English only speaks Guajarati»

«don't she understand a word I say?»

«Hardly

Plus she got a boyfriend and he’s over by the bar see

Now there’s no need to worry

But the is a boxer kinda' like Muhammad Ali»

«you taking me for Laurel and Hardy

What’s the worst he can do?

Feather and tar me?»

I don’t really gotta leave in a hurry

But I just step even though it’s kinda funny

Now I’m on my solitaire

Brock' pocket acting like a millionaire

Searching for my friend but don’t see him anywhere

Probably went out to get fresh air

So I pulled up a chair

And kicked back like the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

Feeling kinda' fly in the clothes that I wear

Had some fresh Nike-Air and my Pierre Cardin

I get recognised by a bre'

Trying to talk to me on some reh teh teh'

He was kinda' boring me like Tony Blair, Blair, Blair

So I listened to him then I told him «yeah, yeah, yeah»

Am I bothered?

Do I care?

Looked at the time and the time was weird

It said 14:20 oh my watch ain’t repaired

Then I felt like a beer

Double check my pocket but there ain’t' no money there

It only made me more aware

I need to work harder just to have a better year

Cos life ain’t' easy when you’re broke man I swear
