Thank You

Thank you, thank you very much for coming out this evening

Thank you, thank you, thank you

you're far too kind.

Hold your applause,

this is your song, not mine.

Thank you, thank you, thank you

Please hold your applause,

for I just apply logic, keys keys open doors

Now a balcony Opera, black tux binocular,

black lux, stop it I shouldn't be so popular

Name keep popping up

face keep popping up

on the tube i'm just watching Pacquiao box em up

how would I know HBO will get shot of us

lyrics courtesy of killerhiphop.com

sitting so close that we almost got snot on us

please don't bow my presence how am I a legend

I just got 10 number one albums maybe now 11

more hits than a Now 11.

that is no reason to treat me like I'm somehow from outta Heaven

Heaven knows that I made my mistakes

that God, what a guy, as I say my grace

who woulda thought by making birds migrate for the winter

I'll be fly all summer, might I say

Thank you, thank you, thank you

you're far too kind.

Hold your applause,

this is your song, not mine.

Thank you, thank you, thank you

you're far too kind.

do me a favor don't do me no favours, I'll handle mines

Hovi baby,

we are really high, really high tonight,

lyrics courtesy of killerhiphop.com

we tipped the waiter one hundred dollars to keep the ice cold alright,

we the last ones to keep the wise guys code alive,

if i cant live by my word then I'd much rather die,

no no don't thank thats just how my suit is stitched,

i'm cut from a different cloth, im just who the shoe fits,

for the colour of money like a Tom Cruise flicks

if I put 8 balls in corners without using pool sticks,

Beautiful music when Champagne flutes click eh,

beautiful women sipping through rouge lips eh,

danger approaches were like, wait who's this,

let us save you some trouble son, what size suits you is,

this way after the ruger shoots through a few clips,

lyrics courtesy of killerhiphop.com

you can lay in your casket just as you is,

we appreciate the target practices,

we'll be sure to send flowers baskets kid

Thank you, thank you, thank you

you're far too kind.

Hold your applause,

this is your song, not mine.

Thank you, thank you, thank you

you're far too kind.

do me a favor don't do me no favers I'll handle mines

I was gonna kill a couple rappers but they did it to themselves

I was gonna do it with the flow but they did it with their sales,

I was gonna 9/11 them but they didn't need the help

and they did a good job, them boys is talented as hell,

so not only did they brick but they put a building up as well

then ran a plane into that building and when that building fell

ran to the crash site with no mask and inhaled, toxins deep inside they lungs

until both of em was filled, blew cloud out like an L, to a Jordan to a smell,

cos they heard the second hand smoke kills.

lyrics courtesy of killerhiphop.com

N-ggas thought they was ill, found out they was eww!

and its like you knew exactly how i wanted you to feel

Thank you, thank you, thank you

you're far too kind.

Hold your applause,

this is your song, not mine.

Thank you, thank you, thank you

you're far too kind.

do me a favor don't do me no favers I'll handle mines

We are really high, really really high no

really really high, really high tonight

We really really high, really high tonight

We really really high, really high tonight

kiss the wife for good night from me
