Deuce A Quarter Lyrics - Prince

CHORUS: 

In my deuce and a quarter feelin' funky funky fine 

And I'm rockin' that stupid shit 

In my deuce and a quarter feelin' funky funky fine 

And I'm rockin' that stupid shit 

Rollin' in my deuce deuce 5 

Convertible top down so I can see the honeys passin' me by 

It's a beautiful day in my neighborhood 

But 5 or 10 minutes, a criminal puts me in a bad mood 

And some would say that's just a black man's perspective 

But nowaday, I find that it's reflective 

Of what I see goin' down everyday 

My brothers and my sisters gettin' played 

So we revert 2 committin' dope, many brothers get hurt 

By another brother who don't like salt in his dirt 

Cuz in the streets, see, that's the way it is 

U keep your mouth shut and stay out of other people's biz 

See, the system wasn't made 4 me or U 

And as a matter of fact, it wasn't made 4 a poor white who... 

Gets their weekly hit 

Or should I say that weekly check and start depending on that shit like a glass dick 

These are some of the feelings that I'm holdin' 

But everything's fine while I'm rollin'...

CHORUS 

(Don't everyday) 

How many, how many times must we commit crimes 

Against people no better off than us, but in our own minds? 

A-havin' it, grabbin' it, tastin' it 

And when U step off, I finally rub your face in it 

See, the local's preacher is not suited 4 the have-nots 

The poor get poorer and the rich continue 2 clock ... not! 

That means U end up with the booty 

And we all know a broke man is a man with no friends 

And that's basically the way society is 

And money talk, pusher walk and sleepin' on the politics 

Soon we must live 2 consolidate 

As we continue 2 consume instead of producin', seal our on fate 

(In my deuce and a quarter feelin' funky funky fine) 

People right now really don't give a damn 

(And I'm rockin' that stupid shit) 

Cuz in the 20 mile radius, there's probably not one black and... 

Hispanic taken 4 granted and left 2 clean their own shit up, huh 

No need 4 panic, I'm out 

That's bullshit!

CHORUS 

In my... in my... in my... 

Rockin' that stupid shit 

Rockin'... rockin'... rockin' that stupid shit
