tipesh mode

My spirit is angelic

I got more beats than Tom Selleck

'Cause I'm not drunk, I'm just psychedelic

I'm a thug

Like Melissa & Doug

Tripping on toy ships

Sweeping trucks under the rug

'Cause when I play Duck Hunt

I hit the trees harder than James Blunt

So get behind me Satan

Cause I'm going in front

But the details always got the devil in them

That's why I'm crabbier than Crabtree & Evelyn

I'm a rebel without a spiritual level

Lately I've been having trouble with my treble clef

Or maybe I'm just tone deaf

But I still stone you like an Iron Chef

So let the nouveau riche eat quiche

I'm MC Complete and this is my pastiche

chorus:

I'm MC Complete and I'm in tipesh mode

Twisted like an operator overload

Turn off the lights and I'll glow

'Cause I'm a cross between Vanilla Ice and Sonny Bono

And I'm still waiting for your web page to load

'Cause I'm not drunk, I'm just in tipesh mode

I'm living on a prayer
Like A.J. Ayer
Like charismatic megafauna I'm not all there
So share this song with all your friends on twitter
'Cause facebook is my new babysitter
And you record labels might want to consider
My offer to sell my talents to the highest bidder
'Cause I rip off Eminem like I was a counterfeiter
In God we trust
But defraud we must
Until this body returns to the dust
Plus we must write server code in C++

So we can overload the comma operator

And change over less than to make it greater

'Cause I'm an innovator and an imitator

So in the future, come with me to Taba for my seder

I promise you'll be looping like a constant iterator

(chorus)

I bend you and I blend you like mixflakes

'Cause your crew is full of toucans that's sweeter than six cakes

Yo messing with Complete was your last mistake

'Cause I bang out battle raps till my wrists ache

Yo I better take a coffee break before I get carpel tunnel syndrome

Plus I better get a wikipedia entry of my own

Or at least the cover of the Rolling Stone

'Cause I'm 33 years old and I'm still unknown

I bought a prefab sukkah with a subprime loan

Now there's ushpizin everywhere like the attack of the clones

So take a stand like Shuli Rand

'Cause Torah and Hollywood go hand in hand

I'm complete like a breakfast with raisin bran

I just imitate MC Frontalot so I can leverage his brand

(chorus)

Re: Tuna

I posted a new song on my website today. It's a silly parody for kids. Let me know what you think:

Prayer, a Timeless Need

Traditionally, Judaism recognizes three aspects of prayer: praise, request and thanks.

Why do we make requests of God? I ask people for things because otherwise they might not know what I want. But God already knows what I want before I ask. Giving me what I want is not always in His plans (it often is, of course), but He does know. He doesn’t need me to inform Him.

I think that asking God for things and asking people for things might be very different. Maybe asking God for things is really an act of gratitude, just like saying thank you. Maybe it’s like saying thank you in advance. Or you can look at it this way: as all parents know, there are nice and not nice ways to ask for things. Not asking at all and just expecting God to read your mind is not a nice way of asking.
