[00:00.00]Short but Funky - Too $hort
[00:10.07]Life is too short but now it's kind of funky
[00:12.63]I make the beats for me and my homies
[00:14.88]Newspaper reporters and others always ask me
[00:17.44]Why I'm X-rated and I rap so nasty
[00:19.68]When I was a teen I did nothing else
[00:22.05]But pick up a pen and express myself
[00:24.43]The things I wrote were obsene and kind of dirty
[00:27.05]But mama always said the truth couldn't hurt me
[00:29.48]She also said that it would set me free
[00:32.04]I guess she was R-I-G-H-T on the nail
[00:35.15]Cause now I'm out making my mail
[00:37.02]It all started out from a freaky tale
[00:39.34]If that's what sells then I'm a stick with it
[00:41.71]Short Dog ain't changing so forget it
[00:44.08]You can sell out if you want to homie
[00:46.77]But I'm a stay short but funky
[01:08.85]Don't stop just call it verse two
[01:11.28]It's Short Dog baby from the Dangerous Crew
[01:13.46]Not your average everyday fake rap on the micro
[01:15.96]I might say something that your mother don't like so
[01:18.65]Don't play it loud if she's around to see
[01:21.01]But you can play this cause it's rated PG
[01:23.26]When I'm rated X I'm just having my fun
[01:25.76]I bring a smile to each and every one
[01:28.13]But there's a serious side in everything I say
[01:30.68]Life is too short for you to wait 'til the next day
[01:33.38]Just straighten up your life and you can start right here
[01:35.74]Drop the coc*ine and the bottles of beer
[01:38.18]People always say it ain't right to preach
[01:40.43]But take my advice get wise and reach for the sky
[01:44.04]So you can live like a king homie
[01:46.29]And I'm a stay short but funky
[02:27.35]You never catch me on the mic rappin' a dance tune
[02:29.47]I like it kind of mellow with the sound of the bass boom
[02:32.09]The style is mine I've been doing it for ten
[02:34.52]You might say it's simple but I'm making my ends
[02:36.84]See I don't trip on a punk cause I jack him
[02:39.40]Too $hort plus the cuss words equals platinum
[02:40.89]What would I look like dancing on a stage
[02:44.19]I wave my hand and do it like the old days
[02:46.87]But some dumb fool want to take it out of hand
[02:50.34]With 50 million dancers and a big old band
[02:52.15]That ain't me I'm from the old school
[02:54.15]Play the instrumental get the mic and I'm cool
[02:56.34]Cause I'm an Oaktown mack and it's like that so
[02:58.90]It all comes out in my records and my stage show
[03:01.52]In my category I'm the one and only
[03:04.26]And I'm a stay short but funky
[03:09.77]Hey yo that's it
[03:18.88]Baby Jesus
[03:44.12]Dog baby from the Dangerous Crew
