black thought - yellow lyrics
black thought (as max “matthew” fisher) verse 1:
yellow money, yellow women, yellow taxis
the smell of the city that’s coming at me
pepper head heffers in new york are never happy
rule of threes the main thing that attracts me is
yellow sapphire, yellow diamonds, and gold
if loving her was the “bing” i guess i’m out on parole
out off control i was too sad to try to console
i took my hair out of my durag, went out on a stroll
to hail a taxi, a jiggy?, a cabbie, a gypsy, a hack
someone to get me down 125th street
out on the corner looking for a driver to lift me
to the height of a high yellow mama to kiss me
that old man mini? is probably going to miss me
but that’s ancient histroy i’m trying to get tipsy
some middle mystery mix might come whistlin dixie
and drunk from corn liquor or some bootleg whiskey
in harlem black girls are too high saditty now
i need somebody brand new to new york city now
i need a mama who walk, talk, and look pretty now
and if i could get the milk for free why would i buy the cow
before my
yellow (x14)
yellow money, yellow woman, yellow taxi
black thought (as max “matthew” fisher) verse 2:
uh, look
whoever said black don’t crack was wrong
i need me a saffran jawn to go platinum blonde
matter fact, big blue eyed anglo+saxon swan
with the forked+tongue or h+rns like a capricorn
i need an amazon viking who’s physically striking
she could start of yellow they deliberately lighten her skin
until it’s brightened and visibly whitened
i mean, the polar opposite of cicely tyson
if you need a black lover you can go ‘head brother
i won’t mess with anything less than cornbread color
of the flesh, she might see a tan but only in summer
shes my number one and one is still the loneliest number
without my h+llo, mellow, yellow amber waves of gray
i hope you’re able to love me cause i’ve been raising cane?
and god don’t like no ugly so ima change the g+y?
should i even change my name nothing stays the same after
yellow(x14)
yellow money, yellow women, yellow taxis
black thought (as max “matthew” fisher) verse 3:
ayo the smell of the city that’s coming at me
yellow taxis taking me to my yellow honey
exactly, look at me smelling the yellow money
with my charm on my arm i dare you to take her from me
ima make her love me, ayo bunny listen to me (clears through)
i beg borrow and steal to cop a meal
and dress with superior zest and proper zeal
i should say my middle name is “let’s make a deal”
because getting something for free in life is not for real
last name good first name is dr. feel
if you’re uptown let me know how much time you got to k!ll
if you’re in for a thrill and got a couple dollar bills
we will give your back your money if your dreams are not fulfilled
me and my ominous laz? was on lennox ave
the threads we was wearing cost an arm and a leg, don’t laugh
pulled up at the honky tonk in a cab
i said, “baby, dont worry im paying the tab”
when i dug in my pocket for the gusto
dug in my pocket for the gusto
when i dug in my pocket for the gusto
i had big bills and nothing low, i had
yellow(x14)
yellow money, yellow women, yellow taxi
yellow women, yellow taxi
woman responding to max fisher verse 4:
boy you’re acting funnier than groucho and harpo marx
but you’re a shark who comes with lots of cargo
raising h+ll up in harlem blowing money like chicago
looking for you a lillian gish or greta garbo
to come between use when you’re darker than uncle remus
acting like being green is the ultimate inconvenience
like you’re some kind of g+nius, you’re hoping to find you
an octoroon, a quadroon, a mulatto, or mongrel
what does it take to remind you there’s an ax held above you
and max, i hate to tell you but she’ll probably never love you
but heaven knows you’re wildest desires i’m not denying so
go on try some candies and pluck you a dandelion but
yellow t++th for tarter yellow eyes is jaundice
that’s a fine performance but you’re not an adonis
even if you find yourself an aphrodite or athena
you’ll never see nefertiti or the true queen of sheba
with your yellow money
