Saliva
DJ Nu-Mark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Guess who just crawled out the mud the mire
That could make you trust a motherfuckin' liar
A real shuck n' jiver
Vaughn never been a duck n' diver
He spit on the mic, yuck, saliva
Still clutchin' his chest from the heartburn
What's your handle? I need a Zantac, ock
and thanks before I blank into anyphylactic shock
Rock the disco
Chocolate on a Crisco ho ?
Cock diesel
And still tell a joke like Joe Piscipo
Tell 'em the basics
Basically, break the Matrix
And just for kicks, make 'em gel like Asics
That's why they actin standoffish
? by hand like canned raw crawfish
Can you please pass the cocktail sauce?
You might as well know, hell is hot as hell boss
Tell my horse
He said broads call me Vaughny
I make sure I throws 'em back if they's too scrawny
Or boney, phoney MCs use a stand-in
Leave him hangin like if I ain't know where his hands been
Hussy, how bout we bloody up your ?
Bust a knee
Then go feeling study, or plus degree ?
True victory, a new sick story
I never met a chick that was too thick for me
Holy moses, my old earth know me closest
On how I played it back and stayed bent like scoliosis
It's no puzzle
You can ask Doc Zizmor
The slow guzzle got your nizzle crooked like big jaw
Drink like a fishy, she wish she was a Pisces
Live since back in 25 cents Ices
Used to turn your tongue the color red
Now they want to fill ya full of lead
What the fuck that young fella said?
What kid?
It's Vaughn the red blooded
Do yourself a favor or come on, get head butted
Dope him if he run
I'll be there in a jiffy son
With the flame suppressor like off the 151
Quit your bitchin', or get, in your babble-box
Punished with the dry sticks ? and now eat the scrabble box ?
You'll be aight once it pass through your yellow belly
Only thing he said was can you please pass the jelly
Homo say what? Like a promo play the cut
On the late night, before you touch the mic, get your weight right
A lot of crews like to act like a violent mob
They really need to just shut the fuck up like Silent Bob
Either that or get smoked like hickory
Should squash the beef and go wash their teeth quickly
Know the stee ? write a rhyme like a mystery
And sign it on the bottom in calligraphy, "Your nigga, V"
The lyrics of DJ Nu-Mark's song "Saliva" tell the story of Vaughn, a skillful and witty rapper who spits rhymes with ease and confidence. The first few lines describe Vaughn as someone who has emerged from a difficult situation, as if he has just crawled out of the mud and mire. The lyrics go on to say that Vaughn is a shuck n' jiver, someone who can talk his way out of any situation. However, he is not to be trusted as he is a motherfuckin' liar. The following lines mention how Vaughn holds the mic as if he were a drunk driver holding a CB on a sharp turn, and how he's still clutching his chest from the heartburn caused by his fiery lyrics.
The second verse talks about Vaughn's skills as a rapper and his ability to rock the disco like a pro. He is also compared to Joe Piscipo, a comedian known for his impersonations and jokes. Vaughn is described as someone who knows how to break the matrix and make it gel like Asics, a reference to the popular sneaker brand. The lyrics also mention how some people are standoffish and how Vaughn handles this by being hands-on, like someone who deals with raw crawfish by hand. He is also known for being able to handle himself in a fight and never backs down from a challenge. The verse ends with Vaughn's signature calligraphy, which he signs "Your nigga, V."
