《Dead or Alive》歌词

[00:00:00] "Dead Or Alive" - TOO $HORT

[00:00:01] I heard there was a rumor Too $hort was dead

[00:00:02] Walked in the house and got shot in the head

[00:00:05] I know you don't believe it if you do you're wrong

[00:00:07] How can I die and rock it all night long

[00:00:09] I'm Too $hort baby spit that rap

[00:00:12] I put Oakland California on the map

[00:00:14] It's so hard got you telling lies

[00:00:17] Can't hold me back so you say I died

[00:00:19] It's incredible I came back to life

[00:00:21] I never let 'em bury me without my mic

[00:00:24] I keep breathing don't stop that breath

[00:00:26] Now everybody's talking about Too $hort's death

[00:00:28] Am I a zombie or something close

[00:00:30] I'm not Casper I mack all the ghosts

[00:00:33] Oaktown style is the only way

[00:00:36] I catch a new freak every day

[00:00:38] It's not the Yellow Brick Road it's called the Foothill Strip

[00:00:41] Stand on your toes make your heels go click

[00:00:43] Three times it's no place like home

[00:00:45] So why you wanna bury me all alone

[00:00:48] I bring a new meaning to underground rap

[00:00:50] Dead or Alive I'm still Born to Mack

[00:00:52] Always on the pop charts straight rapping

[00:00:55] I'm not dead I'm just macking

[00:01:07] So as the word turns I'm a living soul

[00:01:09] I even heard a rumor that I overdosed

[00:01:11] I'm not a reincarnation of something old

[00:01:14] Like King Tut I was buried in gold

[00:01:17] Why you wanna cry when I'm still living

[00:01:19] Word got out and the rumors started spreading

[00:01:22] My momma called one night

[00:01:24] Said "Todd are you all right

[00:01:26] The whole family's got the Too $hort blues

[00:01:29] I heard it last night on the evening news"

[00:01:31] And that's bad it's not even true

[00:01:33] I told my momma like this "Let's sue"

[00:01:36] So many times I heard I died

[00:01:38] I guess I'm like a cat and I got nine lives

[00:01:40] Well I'm the P-L-A Y-E-R

[00:01:43] I lay bunnies like Hugh Heffner

[00:01:45] I'm her flavor kinda saucy

[00:01:48] I lay back and let the young freak toss me

[00:01:50] Even if she don't like serving a pimp

[00:01:52] I'm still living so let's do it again

[00:01:55] I keep rapping hard as hell

[00:01:57] Cause your rumors make my records sell

[00:01:59] If you continue I'll soon be rich

[00:02:02] Riding around town going "Biiiitch "

[00:02:14] People always say "Too $hort can't rap"

[00:02:17] Now I drive a Benz and my bank is fat

[00:02:19] It's like crap put a "c" on a rhyme

[00:02:21] Ain't nothing left homie but a scandalous crime

[00:02:23] I'm the best damn rapper you could ever hate

[00:02:26] Say I died on the freeway in the earthquake

[00:02:28] Say I'm washed up say I'm through

[00:02:31] But the fact still stands I'm better than you

[00:02:33] You got rhymes Well I got more

[00:02:36] I take you on a trip to my rappin' store

[00:02:38] You find rhymes and raps poems and caps

[00:02:40] Way more raps than any rapper could rap

[00:02:42] Cause if you rap like me he wouldn't have to be

[00:02:45] Weak on the mic like my boy MC

[00:02:48] It don't stop to the funky beat

[00:02:50] I know you like dancing with a real big freak

[00:02:52] I can't dance but I sure can rhyme

[00:02:55] I sold a million in '89

[00:02:57] And if you didn't know baby it's the 90's now

[00:03:00] Old Short Dog got a new breakdown

[00:03:01] I went to Miko's fresh candy paint

[00:03:04] Now I'm doing things that the suckers can't

[00:03:07] If I was dead they'd call it "Dead Man's Rap"

[00:03:09] But on the real Short Dog is back

[00:03:31] Funk funky off the Parliament

[00:03:32] I'm still living so let's do it again

[00:03:36] It's incredible even if I die

[00:03:38] I never let 'em bury me without my mic

[00:03:40] I bring a new meaning to underground rap

[00:03:43] Dead or alive I'm still Born to Mack

[00:03:45] I say "What's up" to my homies in Santa Rita

[00:03:48] Right about now I know you need a

[00:03:50] Too $hort rhyme to get you through the day

[00:03:53] Oaktown style is the only way

[00:03:55] I came up and now I've sworn

[00:03:57] To rock this mic til I can't no more

[00:04:00] And that's game straight pop the most

[00:04:02] MC rapper from the West Coast

[00:04:04] Too $hort dead or alive

[00:04:07] I still chill on the Eastside

[00:04:09] Cause I remember how it all began

[00:04:12] House parties in East Oakland

[00:04:14] Now it's on the pop charts still rapping

[00:04:16] I'm not dead I'm just macking
