Payback Is A Grandmother Lyrics - Like Water For Chocolate - Common

(Common) 

Yo. I don't know what was on y'all niggaz birds(?) 

to go up to the boat - and start robbin old folks 

Now see you done messed with the wrong old lady 

You done went wild; yo, check it. 

 

There was a Hardy Boy mystery I tried to solve again 

Dude that broke in my crib - it wasn't involvin him 

Four in the mornin, my phone ringin 

I'm thinkin, "Who da f**k is this," on the other line screamin 

Told em, "Keep(?) down," but they was breathin hard 

It was my grandmother tellin me that she had been robbed 

I told her hold (hold) tight (tight), I'd be right over 

Freezin but this situation made the night colder 

Knew this was the night (that what?) that she played poker 

with some friends in a club at the boat gettin bub' 

Said she seen these thugs on the boat for a while (uhh) 

Not gamblin but every now and then they'd smile 

Then BLAOW! They had(?) Mag's 

and told everybody, "Put your shit in the bag" 

Made people strip naked, quicker than a Luke record (what?) 

Had the place took in a minute and some seconds 

Asked her how many of it was em? (How many of it was em?) 

Said she couldn't remember 

She was spooked and buzzin, couldn't describe em 

cause it happened too fast (what?) said they looked like me 

with they pants hangin off they ass 

Got her some water - and begin to think 

How these niggaz take her wig, her bracelet and her mink? 

Somebody round the crib know the deal (uhh) 

Whoever did it better have Blue Shield for real 

cause yo, it's the big payback.

(Common) 

Later that day I went to the 'shop, to see what was up 

Them niggaz probably knew somethin plus I needed a cut 

Walked in they was playin Jigga (jihh-gga.) 

Discussin how Da Brat titties done got bigger 

These niggaz next to me, was talkin bout the heist 

Whoever did it even got Jordan for his ice 

Said that it was done so precise the cops ain't know nut-nin 

Had to use all my might not to ask no questions 

 

Put down the magazine, went to the pop machine 

Noticin these cats, had the Bling Bling 

They wouldn't be talkin if they did it; it could be they team 

A week ago neither one of these niggaz had a ring 

This Hype(?) came in, sellin CD's; said the BD's 

was braggin bout robbery they had done 

By now, I'm thinkin bout my gun if I see gramps bracelet 

I'ma play racist (and what?) and make niggaz run 

It's the big payback.

My imagination roamed as I got in the chair 

Thinkin - when shit went down, I was I was there 

F**kin with fam' - who you are, I don't care 

Have your guys pourin liquor witch'ya name in they swear 

These chicks claim they was there, knew the niggaz who done it 

Said it was Smoke and them from the Wild 100's 

Eight million stories got me runnin in place, it's gettin tricky 

(like who?) like dude, that do drum'n'bass 

There was a air in the place, that made me suspicious 

Normally, they'd be talkin like bitches 

My barber cut me with a quickness (what?) 

Asked him where he got the new bracelet; 

he said it was his sister's - I knew then 

What made it official, he gave me my change 

The money clip had gramp's initials (c'mon) 

As I, whooped his ass up, six niggaz masked up 

Pulled up in a Cadillac truck {*gunfire*} 

 

(police scanner) 

. three-alarm fire? and a possible homicide 

The building is entitled "The Ultimate Barbershop" 

There are six unidentified bodies in the building 

They are all presumed dead 

I repeat they are all presumed dead 

However there are no suspects 

I repeat the subjects are at large 

we might need some backup. 

Inform O'Malley that we need backup, over. 

The skit definitely needs more? added to it 

plus a new writer for the script, thank you. 

Someone get Prince Paul on the phone please.
