ltthemonk - the interview lyrics

[intro]
[the interviewer] why do you want to intern here at uptown?
[ltthemonk] um… i’m trying to give them that swing
[the interviewer] why do you want to intern here at uptown?
[ltthemonk] that new swing…
[the interviewer] why do you want to intern here with us?
[ltthemonk] i wanna make them dance…

[verse 1]
look
i love music
more than amus+m+nt
in star wars
more than george lucas
michael or prince
end up schooled
when you say bebop
bеtter than jazz fusion
i don’t know man
i’m just a student
looked shy
whеn i
walked in the room
i seen all the plaques
heard all the facts
i know so much to learn
from you in
your field with your expertise
tell you bout a time
with easy mo bee
up in the club
i stayed till past 3
had to rap for the man
who worked with biggie
or walking backstage
to talk with smif n wessun
giving donald glover
2 copies of my demo
you see the reference
and man i will echo
ima work so hard
you’ll call me gordon gecko
[chorus]
i’m here to intern at uptown
in the home
where soul and the funk found
give me the task
and ima run round
and while i’m at it
i’ll bring in the new monk sound
if the price is right
then bring me on down
the hardest working
beyond doubt
i ain’t saying
you gotta put me on now
but ima get it
if i’m here at uptown

[interlude] [the interviewer]
i see your job history here on your resumé
soccer coach, dominos
why do you want to intern here at uptown?
why do you wanna intern here with us?
why do you want to intern here at uptown?

[verse 2]
look
my first language
is rapping
melodies added
and if i happen to
be mail stamping
matcha tea grabbing
stand in the stu
as mute as charlie chaplin
i’ll do it all
to be close
first love
love of my life
my love jones
more than a heroin dose
my brown sugar
one day
you’ll see the places i took her
[chorus]
i’m here to intern at uptown
in the home
where soul and the funk found
give me the task
and ima run round
and while i’m at it
i’ll bring in the new monk sound
if the price is right
then bring me on down
the hardest working
beyond doubt
i ain’t saying
you gotta put me on now
but ima get it
if i’m here at uptown
i’m here to intern at uptown
in the home
where soul and the funk found
give me the task
and ima run round
and while i’m at it
i’ll bring in the new monk sound
if the price is right
then bring me on down
if the price is right
then bring me on down
i ain’t saying
you gotta put me on now
but ima get it
if i’m here at uptown
[outro]
uptown
uptown
uptown
uptown yeah yeah uptown
uptown yeah yeah yeah uptown

[interlude]
i want to intern at uptown
because i want to be a star
i want to intern at uptown
because i want to lead black music
i want to intern with you
because i want to lead pop music
i want to intern with you
because i want to make music
that’s mentally hip+hop
smoothed out with some r&b
with a pop appeal to it
i want to intern here
because i want to make people dance
i want to intern at uptown
because teddy riley, jodeci, puffy
these are my heroes
i want to intern with you
because i will serve coffee
i will pick up dry cleaning
i’ll even work in the mail room
just to achieve my dreams
i want to intern at uptown
because i want to make mr. harrell proud
