Coney Island High — текст песни (Tarsha Vega)

I raise the roof like Luke and smack u wit my tactics
Impact u like the tooth u call the wisdom
Shirley Chisolm from the boogie down to b.k. in my pumas and kappas
Tarsha Vega`s a dapper rapper I expand with Frank Zappa
Beta kappa on the mic like MC Lyte drink cappuccino
We flow at casinos from Las Vegas to Reno
Cause life`s a slot machine of dreams and
I`m a verbal fiend been rockin`
Scores of metaphors since I was only a teen

I think I`m winning but I`m losing again
I find religion in a pad and a pen
I plant a flower in the desert
Then I`m back to Coney Island in the middle of the summer

I`m so high Coney Island high
Walkin` on the boardwalk w/ my baby tonite
I`m so high Coney Island high
Beats and cotton candy in the summertime

Tarsha Vega like Suzanne who sang the Luca
Divine like Pink Flamingos
Got`cha searchin` for my lingo
Ridin` on the wheel they call the Ferris like the Buhler
Circle is the motion like the hoop they call the Hula
In the cycle of a lifeless tomb a crackhead`s womb
Build a bridge across the River Phoenix
Impend the doom while I`ll eclipse ya like the lunar
Use your wisdom it`s ya essence
Got the lessons like a professor at the college flipping knowledge

I dig the silence as u holdin` my hold
I dig the rhythm of the waves on the sand
I see the hard knocks on the boardwalks pushin` rocks
And that`s why families don`t come to Coney Island
I flip the script like David Kelly on the tele
Then take ya round the corner score some ginseng at the deli
Melle Mel was like the message but it`s all been convoluted
Love the pictures of the boardwalk when the shit was not polluted

I`m so high Coney Island high
Walkin` on the boardwalk w/ my baby tonite
I`m so high Coney Island high
Beats and cotton candy in the summertime
