Lemonade and Bruce Willis?

― Orange, Tuesday, 11 February 2003 19:15 (twenty-three years ago)

"Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is/Something something something Bruce Willis"

Obviously I have no idea what song this is or exactly what the line is, but it seems to get referenced fairly often.

"Fuck being hard: Posdnuos is complicated."

― Douglas (Douglas), Tuesday, 11 February 2003 19:28 (twenty-three years ago)

"Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is/I get more props and stunts than Bruce Willis" Gang Starr "DWYCK" from _hard to earn_(i think it's spelled)

Haven't seen this around on the ohhla, but it's my favorite verse right now & I've found an excuse to transcribe some. From a long-ass freestyle battle between Big L & Jay-Z, Big L says, in his second verse, showing off his fast style:

Ay yo my crew be deliverin' hot lead,
When gats are clenched rappers ejaculence(?)
Nobody can fuck with the way I I be sellin' up shit at rap events
I'm the nigga you expect
to catch wreck on any cassette deck
I'm so ahead of my time my parents haven't met yet
I'm livin' like Billy Bathgate, my rap style is past great,
I love to fuck a bitch from the back, and watch her ass shake
I probably got your mommy strung
Niggas hear me & take more notes than Connie Chung
My clan plans to get Giuliani hung
never had a gassed head, got loot cuz I stash bread
try to tax & I'ma beat your faggot ass half dead
I stomp white cops til they life stops
(pull over low price hops) cuz my blood is colder than a ice box
Who one three nine, you don't want a block war
cuz my crew will kill a nigga from the lobby to the top floor

etc, etc. then Jay Z comes on the mic & does the freestyle choke of all time. excellent.

dunno if it gets puts here but I'm tired of finding out Northern States keeps their beats regal, snoopy is a beagle and chekhov wrote the seagull. I already knew two of those claims and one I've yet to verify for myself.

Let's see who can put on a show best
The creep that tried to sleep got no rest
I got a rap that can trap a slow pest
Where's your girl? She's out on a hoe quest

-master ace

Er war ein Punker
Und er lebte in der großen Stadt
Es war in Wien, war Vienna
Wo er alles tat
Er hatte Schulden denn er trank
Doch ihn liebten alle Frauen
Und jede rief:
Come on and rock me Amadeus

Er war Superstar
Er war populär
Er war so exaltiert
Because er hatte Flair
Er war ein Virtuose
War ein Rockidol
Und alles rief:
Come on and rock me Amadeus

Es war um 1780
Und es war in Wien
No plastic money anymore
Die Banken gegen ihn
Woher die Schulden kamen
War wohl jedermann bekannt
Er war ein Mann der Frauen
Frauen liebten seinen Punk

Lyrics, fill in the gap -- Drop that bass and get the NINJA RAP
Feel it, if you know what I mean -- Give it up for those heroes in green
Just flowin, smooth with the power -- Kickin' it up, hour after hour
Cause in this life there's only one winner -- You better aim good so you can
hit the center
In it to win it, with a team of four -- Ninja Turtles that you gotta adore it's
the:

Chorus
Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP!
GO GO GO
Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go ninja, GO!
Go Ninja, Go Ninja. GO; Go Ninja, Go ninja, GO!
GO GO GO GO

"I'll serve your ass like John MacEnroe
If your steps up, I'm smacking the ho"

At least in my house this gets quoted a lot. And my Japanese roommate has no clue what's going on.

Every time I go into a part I wanna yell KICK IT! really loudly.

And any time I'm told somebody's head hurts I wanna say "You gotta headache? Then I'LL be your aspirin."

Boom batter and my pocket's getting fatter.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Wednesday, 12 February 2003 22:48 (twenty-three years ago)

into a party. frikkin' typos.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Wednesday, 12 February 2003 22:51 (twenty-three years ago)

Anthony, I'm just imagining you getting ready for a "part" in "The Cherry Orchard" or "Roshoman" and yelling "Kick It" to get your thespian self ready. Damn the non-edit function of this board.

― Carey (Carey), Wednesday, 12 February 2003 22:51 (twenty-three years ago)

everytime i drop this line at a show the crowd always reacts

Way too many cats straight BITCH AND TALK
"Running their mouth" before their "LIPS CAN WALK"

and

Peako the "King a' Clubs sometimes "ACE A' HEARTS"
Rock a full house with proses of GREATER SMARTS

― Jordan Peak, Saturday, 24 April 2004 21:22 (twenty-two years ago)

"If skills sold truth be told/ lyrically/ I'd probably be/ Talib Kweli"
This line is very misunderstood, incidentally.

I've still never heard that lemon Bruce Willis song, but I know that line by heart because of ILX.
