"Hello Pete" lyrics
Atmosphere, Slug & Ant Lyrics
(feat. Buck 65 & Kool Keith)
[Slug:]
Hello Pete I think it's time to read them receipts
Tighten up the light bulb and write your own speech
Change the pillow case, unplug the wireless
Following a fever like it doesn't bug the viruses
I wish there was an island you could drive to just to
Occupy the time with a little peace and quiet
To balance all the violence that you've had to carry
And pick up some new vocabulary
And I ain't trying to suggest how to handle the stress
But everything's dirty with a capital F
Keep a canister of Narcan in the man purse
Put your hands in the air like you've got all the answers
If you know then you know how it looks
Some of these tattoos probably could've been books
And everybody's name might as well be Peter Piper
Cause we are all graffiti writers
We keeping it live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
We keeping it live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
[Buck 65:]
Hello Pete dope beat yo got a front row seat
Eating good goat meat cook it over low heat
Lookit, these are crow's feet growing old I don't cheat
Home run hitting 'em balls landing 20 rows deep
White bread or whole wheat
Children building muscle mass
Cause you gotta hustle fast blinded by the muzzle blast
Soaking in a bubble bath, smoking like I'm Al Pacino
Jalapeño crack a cold one ride a golden palomino
Yo, so many classics in my oeuvre
Hang a photocopy of my album cover in the Louvre
I like to move it-move it shovel and a sturdy bucket
So disturbing dirty fuck it Kentucky derby Kirby Puckett
Winner's circle worthy of it celebrate with rebel yells
Camouflage and metal shells working out with kettlebells
Walking where the devil dwells like LL I need a beat to be complete
I'm outta here, see ya Pete
We keeping it live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
We keeping it live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
[Kool Keith:]
Pete get a job fill out an application
With a pen in formation you gonna need the work instead
Of struggling for handouts otherwise you gonna be a man down
Like 2pac said keep your head up
Improve and get it together
Get a suit for an interview not a Matrix leather
In the basic weather
Now let's prepare you with a face to face letter
Enroll in that course of success and open doors
I'm a businessman, no one cross
Blaze on with the cigar I'm a boss
Don't worry about the shark in the water like Jaws
Just make sure you get that job
Personally I don't want you to hang out with people that steal and rob
Motivation this is the big mountain to climb
Let me direct you follow the right sign we keeping it live
We keeping it live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
We keeping it live
(Is it live?)
Live
(Is it live?)
(Is it live?)
Live
