I heard it said somebody had told me way back when
|
That when we dream its always in black and white
|
Well that's something I cant really attest too
|
You know because I dream in technicolour
|
I dream that dr julius irving walked right to the YMCA
|
On 52nd and chestnut street
|
He had on a top ten on one foot and a jack prosell on the other
|
So he said he wanted to go
|
I wanted to head down to kung fu theatre
|
At the golden you know or something like that
|
Said the ?? jill scott and patti labelle
|
Ooh we're playing at the spectrum
|
He was like I don't know it was weird he had a basketball for a mouth
|
And when he spoke it was like I don't know arrhythmic dribble or something
|
It was cool you had to be there
|
So all of a sudden we're at bartrem high
|
And their playing grabs and hank gathers are there
|
And bo kimble
|
And pooh richardson
|
Remember him
|
Well I do
|
And lionel simmonds and randy wood it was like a oasis of athletes
|
And bob overton and you know dawn stayley
|
Remember remember
|
How she ripped it at tavis had him wide open
|
The whole city would come and see
|
And I was their with dr julius irving right
|
So I went over and maurice cheeks and alan iverson are rapping
|

|
And like bobby dance and lady b was having a party
|
Somebody told me and cosmic kev

|

|
On the boom box

In my neighbours kitchen I get up on I get up on the counter and im wearing my flip flops
