21 Concepts

MC Lars

I wrote a song about a fetus named Cletus who tried 
To run for governor before he died 
He lived in California but traveled worldwide 
It was a big huge hit! Just kidding I lied
There's the song about the 90's, I sampled Ace of Base 
But kept it off the album in the interest of taste 
"Cheyenne Rock City," a song about touring 
But rhymes about Wyoming are really very boring 
As for the Churchill song, give me a break! 
How many songs about England could my listeners take? 
There was a track about women and the drama they bring 
"Hot Girls Make Guys Do Really Stupid Things" 
Remember "Geeked Out"? You don't but I do, 
"The geek shall inherit the Earth," it's true! 
I rapped about nerds being cooler than jocks 
But if I wanted biased news, 
I would have just watched Fox 

I've got 21 concepts but a hit ain't one
If you're having lyric problems I feel bad for you son 
I've got a list of songs here I once thought were the bomb 
But when I laid them down in ProTools
They all came out wrong! 

"Las Vegas Invasion" was a sci-fi track 
About aliens addicted to playing blackjack 
I wrote a song about a kid who made his own flick 
But got a bad review in Ranger Rick 
I didn't want to get lynched or punched in mouth 
So I didn't do that song making fun of the South 
I did a song about how girls at Stanford are whack
Called "College Is Where Girls Go to Get Fat" 
There was the KRS slash Nirvana debut 
But the mash-up thing was so 2002 
I did an anti-Bush track, and then I did five more 
But "Rock Against Bush" was so 2004 
I wrote a song about China, how could I go wrong? 
I rapped in Cantonese about Mao Zedong 
It went um goy, neh ho ma?
Nehih sik ying mun ma? 

I've got 21 concepts but a hit ain't one 
If you're having lyric problems I feel bad for you son 
I've got CD-R of tracks I once thought would be tight 
But when I played it for my girl I slept alone that night! 

Write a song about a can that gets crushed a lot 
Write a dental hygiene jam that says, "brush a lot" 
Write a Bill O'Reilly track that says "hush" a lot
No I'm not a player I like Rush a lot! 

I've got 21 concepts but a single ain't one 
"If you're still referencing Jay Z I feel bad for you son" 
So what's the secret to hip-hop, jazz, blues and rock? 
Step one get out a pad and kill your writer's block... start! 
I've got 21 concepts but a hit ain't one

They all came out wrong!
