Uncle Ricky
could you read us a bedtime story
Please huh please
All right you kids get to bed
I'll get the storybook
This is the remix
Y'all tucked in
Yeah
Here we go
Once upon a time not long ago
When people wore pajamas
and lived life slow
When laws were stern
and justice stood
And people were behaving
like they ought to good
There lived a little boy
who was misled
By another little boy
and this is what he said
Me and you tonight
we're gonna make some cash
Robbin' old folks
and making the dash
They did the job
money came with ease
But one couldn't stop
it's like he had a disease
He robbed another and another
and a sister and a brother
Tried to rob a man
who was a DT undercover
The cop grabbed his arm
he started acting erratic
He said keep still boy
no need for static
Punched him in his belly
and he gave him a slap
But little did he know
the little boy was strapped
The kid pulled out a gun
He said why'd you hit me
The barrel was set straight
for the cop's kidney
The cop got scared
the kid he starts to figure
I'll do years
if I pull this trigger
So he cold dashed
and ran around the block
Cop radios in
to another lady cop
He ran by a tree
there he saw this sister
Shot for the head
he shot back
but he missed her
Looked 'round good
and from expectations
He decided he'd head
for the subway stations but
But she was coming
and he made a left
He was running top speed
'til he was outta breath
Knocked an old man down
and swore he killed him
Then he made his move
to an abandoned building
Ran up the stairs
up to the top floor
Opened up the door
there guess who he saw
Dave the dope fiend
shooting dope
Who don't know the meaning of
water nor soap
He said I need bullets
hurry up run
The dope fiend brought back
a spanking shotgun
He went outside
but there was cops all over
Then he dipped into a car
a stolen Nova
Raced up the block
doing eighty three
Crashed into a tree
near university
Escaped alive
though the car was battered
Ratatattatted and then
all the cops scattered
Ran out of bullets
and he still had static
Grabbed a pregnant lady
and pulled out the automatic
Pointed at her head
he said the gun was full of lead
He told the cops back off
or honey here is dead
Deep in his heart
he knew he was wrong
So he let the lady go
and he starts to run on
Sirens sounded
he seemed astounded and
before long the little boy
got surrounded
He dropped his gun
so went the glory
And this is the way
I have to end this story
He was only seventeen
in a madman's dream
The cops shot the kid
I still hear him scream
This ain't funny
so don't you dare laugh huh
Just another case
about the wrong path huh
Straight and narrow
or your soul gets cast
Oh boy
That Uncle Ricky is really weird
I know right
What does he mean
Straight and narrow
or your soul gets cast
I don't know
I think he be
crackin' it up or something
Well I'm going to bed
Good night
Good night
Another
