Everything That Glitters Ain T Always Gold lyrics

Aw man!
Put that ol` dumb horn down
Hey, Jazzy
Jazzy
Show this boy what some real music `posed to sound like
He-he-ha!
1-2-3-4

Now that`s a record!
Now that`s a record!
Go Jazzy, go Jazzy, go

I want to be remembered for the songs that I sing
Not only for the humour, but for the knowledge I bring
To broaden the horizons of others is why I rap this
Enlightening minds with my lyrical tactics
In life everything ain`t always what it seems
But people are enchanted by things that gleam
You know, bright fancy cars, big yachts and mansions
On the beaches of Aruba with a girlie romancin
Now I`m about to tell you a very interesting fable
More fun than when you first got cable
The moral to be learned from this story to be told
Is that everything that glitters ain`t always gold

On July the 11th I was sittin at home
Talkin to my girlfriend Geena on the telephone
Flippin through the newspaper checkin the news
When I saw an advertisement for a Carribean cruise
It said sunny skies and romantic nights
On an incredible ship and I got hype
It said it`s like the Love Boat baskin in the sun
Promisin fun for you and for everyone
I said that`s dope baby you`re down
She said yeah we could leave right now
The very next day I put the check in the mail
And one week later we were ready to sail
The brochure said that the boat was large
But it was nothin but a broken-down barnacle barge!
And if it wasn`t for my girlfriend, I wouldn`ta went
Because the captain was a cross-eyed hunchback with a limp
The cruise was paid for and the food was free
So I said what the hell and set out to sea
It didn`t take long to notice som
