Illusion Coma Pimp And Circumstance lyrics

She knew which fork 2 use but she couldn`t dance

So he hipped her 2 the funk in xchange 4 the finance

Who`s pimpin` who if nobody gets a second chance?

This is the story of illusion, coma, pimp & circumstance


She was older but rich beyond compare

She`d drop a thousand dollars at the saloon just 2 get her hair did

He was good at compliments, better in the bunk

She laced him with a crib in Paris, he hipped her 2 the funk


Way 2 fine he was 4 her

A dirty dog in expensive fur

As long as she`s providing chips and whips

We can do this funky thang

As long as she was playing the host

He figured he would make the most of them hips and lips

He hooked her up, rocked her coast 2 coast


Ugly...

So ugly, rich beyond compare

She`s dropped a couple hundred thousand dollars on a silver whip

Just 2 match the color of her hair

She said `Eye got plenty of what U need.

Put the spoon down honey, c`mon, let mama feed U`


She knew which fork 2 use but she couldn`t dance

So he hipped her 2 the funk in xchange 4 the finance

Who`s pimpin` who if nobody gets a second chance?

This is the story of illusion, coma, pimp & circumstance


Where was Eye? Oh yeah...

A gentleman he was

He never spoke about her nose

So prominent because in the dark it`d glow

If she was only tan instead of so lily white

Her name was Doris but he called her `Fluo`

As in `-Rescent` - That ain`t right

Fluorescent every night

A situation bound 2 fail

As sure a Doris` skin was pale


Money might talk, but what does it say?

U better get busy if U wanna get paid

`Boy, Eye was fine back in the day`


She knew which fork 2 use but she couldn`t dance

So he hipped her 2 the funk in xchange 4 the finance

Who`s pimpin` who if nobody gets a second chance?

That`s the story of illusion, coma, pimp & circumstance

Now, dance


Dance


He spent her money oh so well

Take a bath in cold Kristal

He took a trip 2 burn an old flame in `Frisco, like wow

But Doris caught him in her arms

She shrugged her shoulders and said `No harm`

Just put Ur name on this pre-nup and we can all hit the disco


She knew which fork 2 use but she couldn`t dance

So he hipped her 2 the funk in xchange 4 the finance

Who`s pimpin` who if nobody gets a second chance?

This is the story of illusion, coma, pimp & circumstance


She knew which fork 2 use but she couldn`t dance

So he hipped her 2 the funk in xchange 4 the finance

Who`s pimpin` who if nobody gets a second chance?

This is the story of illusion, coma, pimp & circumstance

Now, dance


Dance
