Текст песни Percy The Poet

Dury-McEvoy

Hello, babies, I'm sharper than splinter, I'm meaner than minter
I'm cooler than winter and smarter that Pinter.

From coast to coast I'm the most verbose and my royal boast is I'm the ace
When I rhyme on time, I'm so sublime that your troubles will climb right out of your face
Hypnotize your ears and eyes while your bootie flies to outer space
Percy the poet, I know it cause I show it, I'm aglow when I bestow it, on the bass.

Stepping to the rhythm, dressed in baby blue
Mr. Flash and Fancy, Mr. You know who.

I'm Percy the poet, I'm Percy the poet, I'm Percy (yeah) the poet, Percy.

If going to the library was as important as going to the lavatory
Doing art would be just as natural as [fart]
So speaks the royal noble overlord of amazing phrasing
Prince, duke, sir, king, poet, laureate, count Dracula of spectacular vernacular
After you, my dears.

Stepping to the rhythm, dressed in baby blue
Mr. Flash and Fancy, Mr. You know who.

I'm Percy (yeah) the poet, I'm Percy the poet, I'm Percy the poet, I'm Percy the poet.

Without a doubt I'm the king of sprout so jump about cause here I come
Tout de suite my beat right up your street, I will unseat your very bums
As I speak of my technique for those who seek delirium
Poetry Percy, it's a controversy, mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy.

I'm Percy the poet ...
