Testo Landlord - Slick Rick
Testo della canzone Landlord (Slick Rick), tratta dall'album VICTORY
This goes out to all the landlords in New York City
All across the world, you know I mean?
Know I'm sayin'? It's kinda difficult
Crazy tenants and all this, know I'm sayin'?
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all (you gotta invest into some real estate)
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all (you know I'm tryin' to tell you?)
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all (check, check, check, check, check)
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all
Well, it's the first of the month, my, where the time went? (Ding-dong)
Hello, you wanna give my rent? (Give me my rent)
You're three months behind, chick, I'm highly disappointed
Tired of huntin' you down like America most wanted
Now hurry up, my car's in traffic
Oh, great, another excuse not to have it
"My poor kid's short, Rick," your excuses sure get sadder
But, chick, you're not payin' my mortgage (my rent)
Instead of lettin' her bird brain high talk
I said, "Find the rent before I boot you on the sidewalk" (my rent)
Got 'til 9:30 to bring this
Then I'm comin' back to unscrew the door hinges
That ought to bring a little effort
Make a motherfucker resort to these methods (give me my rent)
Forgot where I came from talk
When bein' landlord in the city of New York is not easy
Not easy, not easy at all
It ain't easy, not easy, not easy at all (kid, it ain't easy)
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all
Shit sound like a riot
'Til I rang the doorbell and everybody got quiet (give me my rent, shh)
All of a sudden, hearin' failin' 'em
Also got a problem givin' rent to an alien
Can you believe broke wanna act biased?
Not white or Asian, and they were Black like my ass
Instead of grabbin' my TEC, crashin' in there
Yoohoo, derelict, I know your ass is in there (my rent)
The door unlocked, they went, "Rick"
I said, "You know what time it is, please up the rent quick" (my rent)
What I'm gonna do with 'em?
I didn't buy my house just for them to come and ruin 'em
Though I'm poppin' mad shit, they had to listen
Know this type of attitude might send me back to prison
Gettin' my rent from the bitch like hell, it is
Then be tryna move in stupid relatives (my rent)
Couldn't start to count the men the bitch went through
Then be givin' me mad problem when my rent's due
"You need it now?" Mandatory, miss
And could you keep the place clean, you unsanitary bitch?
Roaches, mice, kept floor sloppily
Chick, you know you're lowerin' the value of my property? (My rent)
Forgot where I came from talk
Bein' landlord in the city of New York is not easy
Not easy, not easy at all
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all (I said it ain't easy)
Not easy, not easy at all
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all
So much racket, other tenants can't hack it
What the fuck is wrong with this triflin'-ass crackhead? (Give me my rent)
Stressed the old lady upstairs 'til her heart went mad
Traffic runnin' in and out the chick apartment (my rent)
Section 8 paid welfare follows
Think the bitch could come up with 50 damn dollars? (Give me my rent)
Not to mention the world worst whore
And I heard was sellin' mad crack out my first floor (rent)
Every month, chick comin' up short
So I called Section 8 and said I'm takin' her to court (my rent)
They act like, "Mi no hable English or Spanish"
Then she had a baby and the baby cold vanished
I had to jump, she left out hurriedly
Exterminate the chick apartment thoroughly (give me my rent)
All of this forgettin' where I came from talk
When bein' landlord in the city of New York is not easy
Not easy, not easy at all (kid, it ain't easy)
Not easy, not easy at all
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all (son, it ain't easy)
Not easy, not easy at all
Not easy, not easy, not easy at all (it's not easy)
Not easy, not easy at all (it ain't easy)
Not easy, not easy at all (tryna tell you it's not easy, my rent)
Not easy, not easy at all (my rent)
Not easy, not easy at all (it ain't easy)
Not easy, not easy at all
Not easy, not easy at all (it ain't easy, kid)
Not easy, not easy at all
