UKULELE CHORDS

Intro:
-spoken-
I feel like hip hop
Used to be a voice for the voiceless, you know?
And now it's become, at least in the mainstream,
a symbol of misogyny, gay panic, fiscal irresponsibility.
So I figure,
If you can't beat 'em,
Join 'em.
 
Verse 1:
Ab
Hittin' the club up vip
Eb
I got a fake mustache and a fake id.
Fm
I look like Wooly Willy
Db
With a really wooly willy.
Ab
And I bypass the bouncer,
Eb
Pass by an ex and I flex and bounce her, wowser.
Fm
Look at all of Bo's hoes
Db
Looking for a ride on Bo's hose.
Ab                           Eb
And I spot a little Latino, booty so big call it Oprah's ego.
Fm                                 Db
We go to it, through it, she says, "Dios mía mi amigo!"
Ab                                    Eb
Pull it out, stick it in your mouth, and I bust in the back of ya.
Fm                            Db
Swallow xxxxx, there's people starving in Africa!
 
Chorus:
Ab
Single every single day
Eb
Do it every single way
Fm
Make the single ladies say
Db
Oooh Bo
Ab
And if I were gay,
Eb
Though I swear I'm straight,
Fm
I'd make the fellas say...
 
Verse 2:
Ab
You're an ice cream sundae with a cherry on top,
Eb
But careful, cherry, 'cause I'm the King of Pop.
Fm
Pop pop pop goes my weasel,
Db
Now ya looking like Jackson Pollock's easel.
Ab
My suggestion is:
Eb
You don't blow 'til you know what congestion is,
Fm
Swallow when you know what digestion is.
Db
Follow Bo, the only question is:
Ab
Have you been splattered before
Eb
By the mad-hatter matador?
Fm
Cake-batter never more
Db
It don't matter whether you're
Ab
Spanish, French, 
Eb
Swedish or Cambodian,
Fm                               Db

Single every single day
Eb
Do it every single way

Though I swear I'm straight,

Verse 3:
Ab
You think that you can handle me?
Eb
Girl, don't make me laugh.
Fm
I said my junk is bipolar
Db
It'll split you in half -yea-.
Ab
And if you're lucky,
Eb
I might just bring you home,
Fm
And I'll have you going down
Db
Like you're growin' an extra chromosome.
Ab
And when you grab me,
Eb
Don't grab me by my buns
Fm                             Db
'Cause I got a bad case of the ru-ruunnnns.
Ab         Eb
I got the runs
          Fm             Db
I got the ru-you-you-uuuns

Do it every single way

And if I were gay,

Though I swear I'm straight,

I'd make the fellas say
Db
Oooh Bo
 
Bridge: Ab Eb Fm Db
-Spoken-
I wanna break it down for ya'll
I came from the streets, with nothin'
Now I'm makin' hit records
For my people still livin' in the streets,
Still livin' in poverty, I wanna tell you
I'm doin' this for you.
My success is your success.
And I know you may be thinkin',
Hey, if you really believe that,
Why don't you use some of your money
To help rebuild the neighborhood
Instead of putting spinning rims on a gold jet ski?
And to that I say -uh, Chorus is comin' up-:
 
Chorus:
Ab
Single every single day
Eb
Do it every single way
Fm
Make the single ladies say
Db
Oooh Bo
Ab
And if I were gay,

Though I swear I'm straight

I'd make the fellas say
Db
Unh Unh!
 
Verse 4:

You gotta fume like a tuna,
Eb
I'll smell ya later.
Fm
I met a fat chick
Db
And I xxxxed her in an elevator.
Ab               Eb
It was wrong on so many levels.
Fm               Db
It was wrong on so many le-le-le-levels.
Ab                Eb
It was wrong on so many levels -unh-.
Fm               Db                Eb
