Kicking it nineteenth century style
MC Lars has some great songs. How many people mention Einstein in their song, let alone giving him "Props on that whole Theory of Relativity thing." Mr. Raven just came on the ipod. It's worth posting the lyrics of the first half of the song. It's strange to hear one of the more famous American poems be rapped (and to be updated to include Paris)
We got EAP in the house tonight, Edgar Allan Poe. / America's favorite anti-transcendentalist. / We're taking this back, way back, nineteenth century style.
Who's that (who's that) rapping? / Who's that rapping at my chamber door? / Mr. (mister) Raven! / All up in my grill like, "Nevermore."
Kick it! Once upon a midnight dreary, while I kicked it weak and weary, / Dark and cold just like Lake Eerie, Brand New sample, someone clear me. / While I nodded nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping. / Up like, "What?", this thunder clapping in my brain like graphic Halflings. / Staffing me, I put down Milton. Cell phone mute like Paris Hilton. / Open window, halfway built-in. Times a changing like Bob Dylan. / Twenty-pound bird black as could be, cold feet cold eyes aimed straight at me. / Grim face, grim stare, death carnivore, quothe that raven "Nevermore."
