Desi Shoegaze Taiko Lyrics by Heems

Nehru Jackets

[Intro]
Ah, I need to burn more...
[Verse 1]
Back in the day when pagers was the rage
Aqua see-through, I was pagin' all the babes
It must've been like 1995
They rocked the door knockers, lookin' mighty fine
At the 143, my code 76
I was dreamin' and schemin' on gettin' rich
Because Renee used his code 2
When Cheeks ran up to Saint Luke's
Ayo, music gets me high
Before the days of email and press reply
Down like that, brown like that
Who you know make a sound like that?
I was with Mike when the towers came down
Now we make the powerful sounds
I used to do the powder in pounds
Now I'm all grown up, showerin' now
I smell like money
Aha, my money smell funny
Aha-ha-hee-hee
Yo, I keep it one hundred
My folks had the candy shop on Queens Boulevard
Same as back then, the people gotta hustle hard
Moms said bogeys used to cost a buck fifty
Now they cost enough to cost a dude a buck fifty
You ain't 'bout that life, you ain't even gotta worry though
New York native, always in a hurry, yo
Burnin' loosies in my whip, my vision kinda blurry, yo
I'm riding on that DQ with Hot 9 on my stereo
Remember when the other kids in Queens called me Gandhi
Shivani watchin' MTV, Madonna and some Blondie
Lie down watchin' Shandi, lookin' cool as Fonzie
I was watchin' [?] tryna get up on that Dondi
Fab 5 Freddy and the Rocksteady Crew
And Cold Crush Brothers, only '92
I was only seven tryna ride my bike with cousins
Used to talk 'bout whips, now my cousins all stuntin'
Rock the flyest shit 'cause it never cost me nothin'
And these other weirdo rappers ain't weird, nah, they frontin'
Now lemme show you somethin'
[Interlude]
Mike Finito
[Verse 2]
Bad with expressions, child of immigrants
They say I'm white, invisible melanin
Melanoma, Medellin, melatonin, acetylene
Down and out, everything, many things better than
Money things, plenty things, many things, venison
Jameson, Hennessy, I kick it like soccer
Swingin' like tennis, shit make you feel proper
Dick ya real proper
Shannen Doherty, Pete Doherty, cute shorty in Prada
She think I got paper, she don't know that I got nada
Amway, ShamWow, Man Ray, Dada
Guap from her pop, yeah, she get it from her father
Mary Kate, Avon, avant-Akon
Akron, Magnums, action, shake on
Steaks on plates on tables of mahogany
Ebony, ivory, everyone be jockin' me
They wanna be my friend again
And again at Bennigan's, and then again
It's just limerick shenanigans
Lampin' on a couch at Raymour and Flanigan
Ethan Allen, Ethan Hawke, Ethan Coen, Joel too
I be in bodegas, I don't go to Whole Foods
