keep on the shady side

MC Complete
Like a mana tzimhonit
Coming on fresher than a slice of whole wheat
After that, it’s rinse and repeat if desired
Why do I do hip-hop, you inquire?
Why don’t you ask Hashem? He’s the One Who inspires me
See ‘cause some Yiddin come with their emuna hard-wired
But my beliefs are acquired from the Yeshiva Boys Choir
I’m nerdy to the extreme, whiter than caesar dressing
But the sunny side is considered harmful like unit testing
It reminds me of a short story by Doris Lessing
One page and it’s already depressing
So keep on the shady side, steal the blessings
‘Cause the angel changed my name to MC Complete
I used to be continually discreet
Now I’m eating more beets on the shady side of the street

chorus:
Keep on the shady side, always on the shady side
Keep on the shady side of life
Find a cool and shady place
Far away from the ultraviolet rays
When you keep on the shady side of life

Hot sun beating down
Enough to put a frown on Jolly Solly the clown
It’s just a typical November in my home town
Sunshine everywhere like the cosmic microwave background
Oops! There was an error! File not found!
No plugin installed for that page that you crawled
Fortunately I have the antidote so I’m glad that you called
I’ll just shoot you a quick email with a really small attachment
It’s a safer, more secure implementation of Flash
So next time you’re watching punk videos by the Clash
My plugin will sell all your assets so you’ll have some extra cash
It’ll hack your Mac apart and make your Windows crash
Yo, I told you that the internet is a dangerous place
It’ll poison your mind like arsenic and old lace
Before you know it you’re friends with Ken Kaniff on MySpace
(OMG are you Slim Shady??) No, fool, I’m his replacement
Slim Shady is locked in the basement with Dr. Dre
If you really want them they’re on sale on E-Bay
‘Cause that savoy truffle is nothing but trouble and tooth decay
‘Cause it’s easy to be happy when the skies are gray
But it’s the shady side that saves your skin on sunny days

(chorus)

Yo brother where art thou?
We’re getting ready to start now
I got Imitation Vanilla in my shopping cart now
I guess it’s time to checkout
The Grand Design that Stephen Hawking is always talking about
Stephen Hawking an atheist? I seriously doubt it
These days the atheist chat rooms are too crowded
Endowed with nothing but loudmouths and shouting matches
Shuffling assumptions like dynamic dispatches
Hanging on every Babel fish that Douglas Adams catches
You atheists are more myopic than a cyclops with a eyepatch
So you can all just open my attachment

(chorus)
