[DAVEED DIGGS] Hi, I'm Daveed Diggs And I've got something to say I'm tired of worrying whether or not you will like it I'm tired trippin' over whether somebody will buy it I got a lot to offer when life is unfair But under pressure I'm the fresher prince of Bel-air Now this is the story all around town How my life got flipped, turned upside-down And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there I'll tell you how I became the prince of big hair On the west coast, I was born and raised Where horny Californians are hip-hop crazed Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool And check it out, chicks, my rappin', it's cool When a couple of guys who were up to no good Cast me in a musical up in the hood I met Lin-Manuel and Thomas Kail was there They said your talent ups the ante, but why the big hair? I went as Thomas Jefferson and then I got cast But when I rap as Lafayette nobody's as fast I'm constantly confused 'cause I'm a half-black jewish mensch-man Every night though I steal the show as America's rapping frenchman! (Daveed Diggs) I'm gonna get hoarse when I strain and my red throat better than bloodstains (Daveed Diggs) And I'm never gonna stop until my chords all pop and burn them up shattering the pain (Daveed Diggs) Hear me abusing, I'm bruisin', I'm misusing, but (Daveed Diggs) This crazy rap is such fun (Daveed Diggs) But it makes my throat numb Perfect riffs Until the tempo shifts But for this to succeed, we have to pick up speed! (Daveed Diggs!) Jaws squeezed, every word like a wrench But I rap even faster in French I mean- (Daveed Diggs!) Jadu, action movies eventually Their gonna torture me on a bench I mean- (Rap James Bond) I'm a star in the making, that Grammy was mine for the taking (Go for it) When I rap you can stand back (Rap for us) When I'm done bring the band back (Give us more...) Well there you have it Weren't you all impressed? And remember it's even better when I'm undressed My flashy white smiles tempt the ladies fair And my other big parts match my really big hair The freestyle love supremes want me on board It's no wonder I'm the winner of a tony award Why not try my rapid rappin' well don't even dare I'm the king of rapping lyrics and the prince of big hair
