Racing Stripes

[Intro] Grows back Dude, it grows back It's ok it grows back Ma! [Verse 1: Aesop Rock] There is a bowl cut template mapped with a billy can Mega mom scissoring a topiary lego man Mini-ramp cowlick Good ship snot nose Lap rain water out of pigeon hill potholes Rat brain, shovel green peas offa butterknife Racoon hat, moon boots all summer-type Felt pressure at the center of the dog show Better off blending, sweater—off Waldo You! Wanna see a genome mutate? Cut a page boy ‘til it bring home a Cube tape Poof, screw-face wriggle out a chop shop Home-brewed Kool-aid, Disavowing Osh Kosh Simulating television Little rowdy rock snob Bobble-headed shredder playing top-heavy hop scotch You realize you only got a week ‘til you catch him with a set of shitty clippers in the sink Like bzzzzt, motherfucking bzzzzt, bzzzzt That's a quiet kid, buzzing asymmetric rebel lines in Crudely, some say to praise the lord I say you wanna feel saved baby shape the orb And I will see you all in Helven Read he fled a panic room pissed And been searching for animal chin since Bumpin' Johnny Rad, eye on the sauce pan Current mop: 4 months shy on the off-chance Might just reset this whole shit [Hook: Aesop Rock] Start with a text book bowl cut (Bowl cut!) One you can mow down slow as you grow up Learn a couple great new curse words (Pussy!) Buzz a cool rat tail, take 2, your turn [Interlude] “Haircuts! Get your five dollar haircut here! I can do mohawks, fauxhauks, afros, halfros, racing stripes, fringes, high top fades, mullets, reverse mullets, crew cuts and much much more!" "No, I just needed a little off the top" "Mirror? No, you can’t look in a mirror, trust me, you look awesome!" "I just want to take a look" "Give me another buck and I'll trim [?]" [Verse 2: Aesop Rock] I knew this kid Camu who in the lion's mouth Made up a fail safe way to get his life corralled Let's say he short on the rent His land lord is upset He disappears with sheers yelling "I'm going George Jeff" Bathroom door sound like a part—mech barbershop quartet Forced into war with itself What emerge next in a shaft of light is bald up top Long on the back and sides Maybe the blade oil came with a ax to grind But granddaddy half-smile, all mastermind He asked, "How do I look?" I said, "You look insane" He said the haircut come with a theory i'll explain Please do First: no hats allowed Faux nat' male pattern when he out the house And wouldn't crop it up until his monopoly prop pass go ‘til then walk this town like an asshole Bzzzt! Motherfucking bzzzt bzzzt! Last week we were stoney This week he program beats all Monday, sold two Wednesday Pay rent, fabricate a whole new hedge maze Back on his smooth shit friday at noon bitch Wow, just like that A method I encourage you to share and apply and adapt as one day his didn't grow back So, if yours does, get that zig zig zag [Hook: Aesop Rock] Start with a text book bowl cut (Afro!) One you can mow down slow as you grow up Learn a couple great new curse words (Fuckface!) Maybe try a pony hawk, take 2, your turn
