lyrics

P44
Back in the day, been the crocodile king since I rocked the chorus,

Rolling with the Wolf and the shark, what they called us,

Hill got on some werewolf shit like polymorphers,

Me and Steve turned into Mega Shark versus Crocosaurus,

Escaped from the shackles, raising my hackles,

Screw the year of the rabbit, this is the day of the jackal,

Bunch of shook ones, rattlesnake rappers,

Course you’re about to choke with a python round your throat,

On that Mufasa swag, please,

King of the jungle’s nothing to a wilderbeast stampede,

Snapping at your heels, giraffe type, head up in the clouds,

Wingspan of a pterosaur getting me around,

No time for earthworm rappers, left the underground,

It’d take a peregrine dive attack to get me down,

Graeme Baseing ya, Animalia, no baby pretensions,

Crazy eyes, ravenous, rabies infected,


CHORUS
Better hope they don’t send this jackal to slaughter ya,

Baboons on the bassoon, pelicans backing the chorus the,

Parrots are squawking, panthers flashing there claws as they’re,

Chopping up, sampling and scratching the formula,

Couple gorillas on the drum set, jamming the floor with a,

Flamingo in each hand, bet you have to applaud for the,

Kangaroo kick and elephant bass, having a ball with a,

Rapping marauderer, this is a fucking animal orchestra,

P44

I’m a lover not a fighter, but I’d love to be a fighter,

Never fight to be a lover, if I find her Ima fuck her,

And we’re lying under covers, I’m a lion under covers,

Say you ain’t enjoy yourself, then you’re lying undercovers,
2 birds in the bush? I can take seven at a time,
Parrot on my shoulder, 50 dead canaries in the mines,
Tigers prowling my roof, vultures circle my house,
Late night owls on the booze, and the circus is out,

Bunch of monkeys in the backyard, flamingos in my bed,

And there’s a shisha pipe and a flock of emus in my head,

I ain’t need to cut the grass to see the snakes, cos there’s a great,

Big anaconda curled up on my lawn in a figure 8,

Figures mate, hear no, see no, speak no evil,

Planet of the apes right before the animals escape,

Sailing on the seas with an albatross’ gait,

Navigating straight through a category 8, fuck slamming on the brakes,

CHORUS
Better hope they don’t send this jackal to slaughter ya,

Baboons on the bassoon, pelicans backing the chorus the,

Parrots are squawking, panthers flashing there claws as they’re,

Chopping up, sampling and scratching the formula,

Couple gorillas on the drum set, jamming the floor with a,

Flamingo in each hand, bet you have to applaud for the,

Kangaroo kick and elephant bass, having a ball with a,

Rapping marauderer, this is a fucking animal orchestra.

Givin ya raw fish when i pen my rappin
I’m a mythical norse squid how i get it kraken
Smackin camels right out when i spit on em
9 rounds to make tigers crouch, when i sit on em
Gimme Ritalin when I step proud I’m a rhinoceros
Better keep ya head down just like some ostriches
Flocks of kids want a flow, I’ll supply otters n
I don’t know if your girls a cow or I’m just lactose intolerant
But I’ll persist she wants to swallow it n she’s offerin
I said if you wanna be with me you know where the pollen is
Obvious she’s the hottest chick her eyes are lethal
I’m chasing the foxiest lady, coz I’m a beagle
N when she’s in my bed I’m beating my chest
Then find out she’s a sadist mantis coz she’s eating my head
Now I’m bleeding and dead just for a piece of the best
Damn, I shoulda gotten me some beaver instead

CHORUS
Better hope they don’t send this jackal to slaughter ya,

Baboons on the bassoon, pelicans backing the chorus the,
Parrots are squawking, panthers flashing there claws as they’re,

Chopping up, sampling and scratching the formula,

Couple gorillas on the drum set, jamming the floor with a,

Flamingo in each hand, bet you have to applaud for the,

Kangaroo kick and elephant bass, having a ball with a,

Rapping marauderer, this is a fucking animal orchestra.
