Special Ed – I Got it Made

*verse 1*

I’m your idol, the highest title, numero uno

I’m not a Puerto Rican, but I’m speakin so that you know

and understand I got the gift of speech

and it’s a blessin,

so listen to the lesson I preach

I talk sense condensed into the form of a poem

full of knowledge from my toes to the top of my dome

I’m kinda young–but my tongue speaks maturity

I’m not a child, I don’t need nothin for security

I get paid when my record is played–to put it short

I got it made

*verse 2*

I’m outspoken–

my language is broken into a slang

but it’s just a dialect that I select when I hang

I play it cool–cuz coolin is all that I’m about

just foolin wit tha girlies, yes I’m bustin it out

I’m Special Ed and you can tell by the style that I use

I’m creatively superior, yo–I never lose

I never lost cuz I’m the boss

I never will cuz I’m still

the champion, chief one, won’t lose until–

I choose

which I won’t cuz I don’t retreat

I’ll run you over like a truck and leave you dead in the street

You’re invitin me, a titan to a battle–why?

I don’t need your respect cuz I–

got it made

*verse 3*

I’m talented, yes I’m gifted

never boosted, never shoplifted

I got the cash, but maoney ain’t nothin

make a million dollars every record that I cut and–

my name is Special Ed and I’m a super-duper star

ever other month I get a brand new car

Got twenty, that’s plenty yet I still want more

kinda fond of honda scooters–got seventy-four

I got the riches–to fulfill my needs

got land in the sand of the West Indies

even got a little island of my very own–

I gotta frog–a dog with a solid gold bone

An accountant to account the amount I spent

gotta treaty with Tahiti cuz I own a percent

got gear out wear–to everyday

boutiques from France to the U.S.A.

and I make all the money from the rhymes I invent

so it really doesn’t matter–how much I spent, because, yo

I make fresh rhymes–daily

you burn me–really?

Think, just blink and I made–a million rhymes

just imagine if you blinked– a million times

damn I’d be paid–

I got it made

*verse 4*

I’m kinda spoiled

cuz everything I want I got made

I wanted gear–got everything from cotton to suede

I wanted lead–I didn’t beg I just got laid

My hair was growin too long, so I got me a fade

and when my dishes got dirty, I got Cascade

when the weather was hot, I got a spot in the shade

I’m wise because I rise to the top of my grade

wanted peace on Earth, so to God I prayed

Some kids across town thought I was afraid

they couldn’t harm me–

I got the army brigade

I’m not a trader

if what you got is greater I’ll trade

but maybe later cuz my waiter made potato -n- alligator souflee–

I got it made
