Baba, Baba, Baba, canât you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your turns of phrase
So even though youâre still broke I love you anyway
Sicker than your average; picture
Any artistic practice, with musicians or actors
Or visual craftsman; just pick an example
And imagine the competitive advantages
That would come with recognition if you have the gift
Now picture the artist with unlimited cash, and with
Picturesque women always givinâ him glances
Or, if youâre picturing a woman, then picture the advances
Of the handsome prince whose attention she catches
Now, picture them livinâ happily ever after
And havinâ kids faster than Angie and Brad Pitt
All because they have this gift with craftsmanship
Now take it from the master of the adjectives
I think itâs adaptive; it has to be instinct
In synch with the rhythm, just listen and sink
Deep into the subconscious of the obnoxious
Sexual selection, Iâm just tickinâ the boxes
And if youâre feelinâ it then mission accomplished
Baba, Baba, Baba, canât you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your turns of phrase
So even though youâre still broke, I love you anyway
Yeah, I could fill you with real scientific
Lyrics, but I confess that my mind is twisted
âCause Iâve been listeninâ to Kanye, Nas and Jay
While reading Richard Dawkins on the opposite page
So now this whole rap thing seems awfully strange
Talkinâ âbout, âHe got game, and heâs not real
And heâs got chainsâ but wait, thatâs a peacockâs tail!
âCause you never hear them say they got it cheap on sale
Which means that bling is meant to represent
How much they really spent, and at the end of the day
Thatâs the definition of a âfitness displayâ
Like a bowerbirdâs nest, which takes hours of work
And makes the females catch a powerful urge
Just like a style of verse or an amazing flow
But it takes dedication and it takes a toll
âCause the best displays are unfakeable
Baba, Baba, Baba, canât you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your turns of phrase
So even though youâre still broke, I love you anyway
