Hoodz Come In Dozens Lyrics - Del The Funky Homosapien

[featuring ice cube] 

Intro: *various media samples* 

60's frat rock 

Yet the economy was collapsing 

And there's been a wave of minor bombings against amer... 

Gang violence is escalating in such a manner i think the 

The mere violence itself has become part of of the gang life 

Part of the thrill 

(yeah!) 

Verse one: del 

Thieves in the night stick you in the alleyway 

They might cause fright, they stick you up for bally suede shoes 

And in the news, and even on geraldo 

You can choose who will lose a pair of shoes (yup!) word 

The ones with the reebok pumps get their rumps rearranged 

For their change now their down in the dumps (yup) 

You sprint two yards, to sport em on the first day of school 

And like a fool, you went out like the worst way 

They pulled out a tool, and asked you to remove them 

Quickly, i told em not to do it and they hit me (what?) in the mouth 

With the nine, i thought they was like kinfolk (punk) 

I never thought crime would elevate up to twin oaks what 

But hey, everybody is a victim 

Hoodz come in dozens, the magic word is (stick em) 

When they spot you and they got you and you can't deal with em 

All because you spent two g's on your boomin system 

Loud enough for the whole block to hear 

But now they caught you at the light and you're drownin in your tears 

(punk you better raise your ass up out this car) 

(come off the car punk 'fore your ass gets blast) 

And never was your fault that your shit was expensive 

You shoulda bought a vault, and now i gotta mention that 

Hoodz come in dozens, read it in the papers 

Seems like everyone caught a little vapors 

You can't escape em, so don't even plan it 

Gangsta boogie fever has taken over planet earth 

Now your life is worth a pair of jordan's? 

Now i wear vans and my fans think i'm poor 

When i walk down the block, with money in my sock and shoe 

I hate you mista gangsta, cause everyone is mocking you 

Now i can't get no rest because your pests keep 

Killing little children like their speakers are worth a million 

Plus, it really is a bummer 

Someone tried to get me for a coat last summer 

(your coat, check it in punk, hahah!) damn 

Hoodz come in dozens so watch your back 

Cause they all on the attack and you'll never know 

When they'll show up, but when they do 

You better throw up your hands like a fan and surrender 

Nigga don't be a pretender 

You ain't the hulk g 

Give up the cash and all the big bulky jewelry 

(all of it) *in what, daylight?* that's the plan kid 

They don't even care if it's candid 

Because passerbys mind they own beeswax 

So they like steppin to you like yo i'll take these blacks 

Give up your cash and your jewels without a argumnet 

Otherwise you'll catch one between the eyes (bang!) 

Don't play hero, cause hero plus a bullet equals zero 

Give up your dough and cheerio old chap 

You didn't get a cap busted in your temple 

See, it's just that simple 

Remember that hoodz come in dozens 

(you're god damn right) 

Hoodz come in dozens 

(like thieves in the night) 

Hoodz come in dozens 

(punks runnin out of sight) 

(so gimme them motherfuckin nike's)
