bop gun

(apologies to Parliament, George Clinton and Ice Cube)

Ready or not here I come, getting down just for the phunk of it
cold frozen morning, so sick of winter
longboard dreams, longboard wheels
longing for warm dry days, wishing for some big Sector 9's,
new day rising, spring just around the corner,
big phat wheels, sticking to the concrete,
gliding over the hubbas, catapault through the corners,
ready or not, knee deep, don't want no drama,
can imagine the sun on my skin, sweet on my bald head,
no place to go, nothing to do,
but just to find myself, find where i'm going,
getting down just for the phunk of it, getting down,
glide and push, trying to find the flow,
i'm gonna have some fun, handcuffs on yo mama,
swerving to miss some groms, swerving to miss some dude,
here's my chance to dance my way out of my constrictions,
ask the buffalo girl to go around the outside, one nation under a groove,
one nation on the board, one nation under the sun,
One nation and we're on the move, Get it on my good foot, good gawd
frantic sweat spills outta my skull, frantic chills shoot down my spine
a whole afternoon to undo the destruction of one winter
pressure's building, pressure's gonna blow
If you hear any noise, it's just me and the boys, Playin with our toys
skating with my kids, the very definition of bliss
Do not attempt to adjust your radio, There ain't nothin' wrong
hit the board, hit the crete, hit the bong,
dropping in, dropping out, falling out, falling down
Flashlight, red light, we don't like cops on the bike
no wrong no right, in this game of skate
do what feels good, ride till it feels tight
Hittin them dips, cd skips but I'm straight
As I bounce, rock, skate, now I'll toast to that
hit them hips, hit the half wall
throw in a boneless, watch me on the lip
watch me panic, watch me stall
So wide you can't get around it, So low you can't get under it, So high you can't get over it
gonna hit you with this bop gun, gonna hit me with this bop gun,
riding up and down, scraping skin as I go along,
Much more ba-e-ya-e-younce, Ice Cube comin' with the half ounce
sun up to sun down, don't let my fall down don't let me fall down,
Not Just Knee Deep, jeep fulla smog
take a deep breath, inhale exhale all there is
ride the long board, the new school and the old
Tear the roof of this mutha like we did last night, son
And hit you with the bop gun
ride on a piece of driftwood for all I care, slap some trucks on
grab onto your momma, let it all out let it go
One nation under a groove, Gettin down just for the funk of it
One nation and we're on the move, Nothin can stop us now
