Hey
MF Doom [Dead Bent] Lyrics

I only play the games that I win at
I only participate in activities that I know I can excel at

And stay the same with more rhymes than there's ways to skin cats
I maintain my style while consistently producing more rhymes than there are ways to skin cats

As a matter of fact, let me rephrase
Actually, let me say it differently

With more rhymes and more ways to fillet felines these days
Currently, I have even more rhymes and techniques to dismantle other rappers

Watch the path of the black one
Be aware of the path of the supervillain, MF Doom

Supervillian he wrecks clubs for dell
MF Doom is a supervillain who destroys clubs for profit

In a drunken stupor chillin
He is currently intoxicated and relaxing

Ready and willin to inadvertantly foil that plan of any rhymer, whiner or Spoiled brat
MF Doom is willing to unintentionally sabotage any other musician's plan, particularly those who are self-important or complain excessively

Who got more snottier flows than snotty nose?
MF Doom is challenging other rappers who have excessively nasal flows

And holds mics like he knows karate body blows
MF Doom is skillful in holding microphones, as if he is trained in karate

Nobody knows the trouble I see From the mpb fly dirty tailin the eye bubble eye thirty
MF Doom is experiencing troubles, particularly from an annoying insect

For the record this is some shit I just thought of y'all
Just to be clear, this is a new idea I came up with

Science fiction that's not admissible in no court of law
The idea or concept I am presenting is purely fictional and cannot be used as evidence in court

I live to rock mics 3-d
MF Doom is motivated by performing and excelling in rapping

The only reason I seek to stop to snuff the tv
The only reason I stop performing and become idle is to end an annoying television program

I heard beats, they sound like karaoke With monkey rhymers on a leash like don't have this fairy choke me
MF Doom is unimpressed with the beats he hears, and the other rappers sound unskilled like someone being held back by others

Hit 'em with a penny so we can get these peanuts And I thought we was nuts, I used to get free cuts
We need to get some money to buy some snacks, and it's disappointing because I used to get free haircuts

They locks lex luthor up in green haven
A notorious villain has been apprehended and imprisoned

Since when a nigga never really been to clean shaven
The person being discussed has never really been cleanly shaven

Misbehavin rap stars need mistament
Rappers causing trouble or misbehaving need punishment

Call me mista bent I'm at where your sister went
Referring to himself as Mr. Bent, he is where someone's sister is currently located

Intelligent, used to write and be well spoke Now all a nigga want to do is fight and sell, tell a joke
MF Doom used to be intelligent and well-spoken in his lyrics, but now he is more interested in fighting, selling, and making humorous statements

This could lead to catastrophe Bout to stop the violence right after these last three shots from the black Bat got me at headlock
This situation could lead to trouble or failure. Just as the figurative black bat has MF Doom in a headlock, he is close to defeat

Holdin on to sanity while stranded at dreadlock She told me get off I said Bitch, let me set this shit off so I could get rich right quick
While being stranded and overwhelmed, someone tells MF Doom to stop, but he insists on proceeding to obtain riches quickly

Then it hit me like the point of intoxication Nigga come out and rock this nation like oxifacen
MF Doom suddenly realizes that he needs to perform and entertain his fans like a powerful drug

A lot of niggas out is rusty like oxidation In the world's most strangest most dangerous occupation
Many rappers are out of practice and rusty in their skills, which can be the most challenging and dangerous career path

But you could do it, you the super like in your building Villain like trife kingdom wear and all my children
The listener can be successful because they are powerful like a superhero in their building, but also sinister like a criminal organization or a character in a soap opera

Plottin and it sure to pay ends With some more mature women's and more of they friends
Scheming and making plans to earn a lot of money, and also spending time with mature women and their friends

And when bad men roll tight, it's actual true Like a pack of big bamboo with natural glue
When bad men band together, it is difficult to break them apart, like a tightly rolled pack of large bamboo bound by sticky natural glue

Who grip necks of becks next to triple x He just came before d followed the ripple effects
These bad men are very dangerous, to the point that they are holding people's necks in front of liquor bottles and graphic adult materials. They operate in a way that creates a ripple effect of damage and destruction

And it'll lead you right to him Oh snap, it seems you walked into a trap do wrap Zoinks, this place is filled with pretender willies
The situation and people involved will ultimately lead to one man's capture. The listener has unwittingly walked into a trap, and the place is filled with false and phony people

One false move and get broke off like end of phillies
Making even one mistake will result in getting completely defeated, like the breaking of a baseball team's streak

True believers ain't nothin new to a Crook with special powers like how to tell the future uh uh
Crooks are used to true believers, and this is nothing new. The artist has special powers and insight, like being able to predict the future

Rhyme of the month two page long Bustin off two gages with my cake gone wrong
MF Doom has written an impressive and lengthy verse worthy of the Rhyme of the Month. He is also using firearms to defend himself, but he is having difficulty due to a failed plan or mistake

Son it's on remind me of a Raekwon tape song With a fleet of super bad status rae dawn chong
The scene is hot and intense, similar to a popular song by Raekwon. He is also accompanied by a group of very attractive women named Rae Dawn Chong

Let me know if y'alls with me y'all Nasty yo and geographic down to the titty bar
Make it clear whether or not you're on board and approve of MF Doom. He mentions specific, vulgar establishments to emphasize his gritty style

Rap monster outer city y'all
MF Doom is a monster in the world of rap, outside and beyond just one city

To all my brothers who is doin' unsettling bids
MF Doom acknowledges and calls out to all of his brothers who are serving time for uncertain legal situations

You could have got away with it if it was not for them meddling kids
The singer/performer is blaming a group of amateur detectives for ruining other peoples' plans and schemes
