Hounddogz
MC Ren Lyrics

The year is 87'
This happened in 1987

Back in the 12th grade G
I was in the 12th grade

When I used to hang with CH to the IP hangin' in the halls
I used to hang out with people with those initials in the school halls

Tryin' to get the young bitches ridin' my ballz
Trying to impress girls with my coolness

We got dissed 'cause we were jog' and kept to ourself shyo
We got ignored because we were quiet and kept to ourselves

Because it's all about self
People only care about themselves

We used to try to get the number and the name
We used to try to get girls' phone numbers and names

But back then - they wanted mothafuckaz in the dope game
But at that time, girls were interested in guys who were drug dealers

We used to try to fuck with ho's
We used to try to hook up with girls

In our graduatin' class there was no woman givin' up the ass
No girl in our graduating class wanted to have sex with us

We go to a dance, we see ho's rollin' eyes on my crew,
When we went to a dance, the girls didn't like us

But what the fuck can I do?
But there was nothing I could do about it

They would'nt even give a nigga like me a chance thou [why?]
They wouldn't even give someone like me a chance, probably because I wasn't cool enough

Because my feet was my transport
I had to walk because I didn't have a car

You ax 'em to dance they start to riff
If you ask them to dance, they will make an excuse

And on the way home niggaz never gave us a lift
On the way back home, our friends didn't give us a ride

But now the tables turned around
Nowadays, everything is different

Every mothafucka and his mom would want to be down
Everyone and their mother wants to be my friend now

I see the bitches at the clubs, the same ones
I see the girls at the clubs, the same ones who didn't like me before

They're thinkin' they're fine and also runnin' the same line :
They think they're hot and are saying the same things to me

"What's up Ren, we used to be in the same class"
"Hey Ren, we were in the same class, remember?"

I'm shakin' my head yeah, now listen to line ass
I'm nodding my head while thinking about how fake they are

They ax me what have I been up to,
They ask me what I've been up to

Knowin' damn well I made money for my record sales
But they already know I've made money from my music

I zip on my drink and say see ya
I finish my drink and leave

'cause only a four leg and pregnant mud can be ya'
Because you're such a mess that only a dog covered in mud could be worse than you

People that used to hate me
People who used to hate me

Now when they see me they speak first
Now when they see me they say hello first

But used to demon raps 'cause I cursed
But they used to criticize my music because I used profanity

They used to say I would'nt make it 'cause I use profanity
They said I wouldn't make it because of my use of curse words

And call myself a Nigga With an Attitude
And because I called myself a Nigga With an Attitude

But once again the tables turned around
But things changed

Niggaz tryin' to be down - walkin' up like a hound
People trying to be my friend, acting like a dog trying to please me

Especially the ones that never had nothin' to say
Especially the ones who were never interested in me or my music

Now they talk to me like enow and everyday
Now they talk to me all the time

Axin' me what's up with Eazy
Asking me about Eazy E

Or Dr. Dre, yo did he marry Miss She'ly?
Asking me if Dr. Dre married Miss She'ly

Or did the D.O.C get his voice back,
Asking me if the D.O.C has recovered his voice

And niggaz think I'm mean when I say I'm not a magazine
And some people think I'm rude when I say I'm not a magazine that can answer all their questions

'cause when I come around I want to kick it
Because when I'm around, I just want to hang out

The ..... is axin' me for concert tickets
People are asking me for concert tickets

The same fools, that used to go to my school
The same people who went to my school

When you see my on the streets just chill and be cool
Just relax and be cool when you see me on the streets

So if you really want to be down -
So if you really want to be my friend

Don't crowd around a nigga like a hound!
Don't be clingy like a dog if you want to be my friend

The hound-dogs, they come in all shapes n' sizes
People who want to be my friend come in all different types

Jackin' 'round Ren with a gang o' surprises
They are trying to get me to do stuff for them

Nothin' but a groopy in sheep's clothin'
They're just pretending to be my friend

The shit makes me lough when the homies want an autograph
It's funny when people who used to ignore me now want my autograph

I feel like I'm on a talkshow
I feel like I'm on a talk show, answering all of their questions

Because they ax all the questions then say they gotta go
They ask a bunch of questions and then leave

Never want to know how I'm makin' out
They don't really care about how I'm doing

All they want to know is when my alboum's commin' out
All they care about is when my next album will be released

Or ax me - 'Yo Ren, when are you goin' on tour?'
Or they ask me when I'm going on tour

I tell 'em 'the same time like I told you before'
I tell them the same thing I've already said

Then there's always one beggin' for me to kick hm down
Then there's always one person begging me to give them something

For pissin' on my leg I never knew you you fuckin' hound!
I'm not going to give you something just because you're clingy like a dog

So go back to your home and fetch yo' bone
Go back to your home and do something else

And quit retrievin' on mine 'cause nigga you got your own
Stop trying to get things from me, you have your own things to do

And talk about me behind my back - nigga please!
And don't talk about me behind my back

So much of a hound, all you're missin' is your flees
You're like a dog, always following me around

Scratchin' all day because you're itchin'
You're always bugging me

You're tryin' to get news wishin' you was in my shoes
You're trying to get information about me and trying to be like me

But trippin' like that you'd never be down
But if you keep acting like that, you'll never be my friend

'cause Ren don't likes a fuckin' hound -
Because I don't want to be friends with someone who acts like a dog

You straight hound-dog!
You're a straight-up hound dog
