This one goes out to the ninjas

Thats been down since Carnival of Carnage

Nah, fuck that, since Dog Beats

Nah, fuck that, since Basement Cuts, motherfucker

[Violent J]

How long will the juggalos be down with me?

How long till they forget me, check it out

What if I grew another fucking head

And his name was Violent Ed

And he head butt me every time I cussed

I would need two microphones when I bust

Would you show me love even with another head

Or would you be like, "Fuck you and Ed"

Or what if I sold out like a bitch

And took the make-up off and went soft, eww

Called myself Detroit Southwest Lover

And put my ugly ass face on the album cover

With R & B top ten hits

And we had Jodeci singing all over our shit (aaahhhh!!!!)

Fuck that, though, yo, I'm a juggalo

So don't forget me like you did with milenko

[Chorus (1x)]

What about when the world's like fuck us kill us, what will you be? (down)

What about when I'm 103, what will you be? (down, down)

What about when the world's like fuck us kill us, what will you be? (down)

What about when the carnival comes to your town? (I'm a be down with the clown)

[Violent J]

How long will you be down with a ghetto puppet

I say I'm sick in the nugget and you love it

I ate a dead body, I ain't proud of it

I told you all about it, and you all applauded (HEY!!)

I got problems, I'm haunted by a carnival

I could run and tell a doctor, but what for

I just put it on tape with a fat beat

And make a quick buck, I'm like fuck

I could of came out sportin some Hammer pants

Kick-steppin with Shaggs, and tryin to dance

Making mom happy, keeping it soft

I'd rather grab my dick and tell your mom to fuck off!

I know then you'd probably start to trip

And swing at me, but hit Violent Ed in the lip

Look I don't even know what I'm trying to say

Just don't forget me like you did with ??

[Chorus (1x)]

I'm a be down, I'm a be down

Down with the clown till I'm dead in the ground [13x]
