Drop The Mic Lyrics by James Corden

Drop the Mic

2016

[Round 1: James Corden]
Dave Franco, thank your agent for getting you this bit
We can all agree you're not famous enough for it
Don't worry, there's still time, you'll be discovered
But I'm pretty sure we actually meant to book your brother
And it's Cara Delevingne, from Paper Towns
I wish someone had dropped a match and burned that movie down
You're perfect for Suicide Squad, I'm being heartfelt
'Cause when I see you try to act, it makes me wanna kill myself

[Round 1: Cara Delevingne]
You'll kill yourself, you promise? Is that a fact?
I've never heard a better reason for me to act
I can see it now, the headlines about me
"Cara Delevingne, the woman who saved late night TV"
Dave Franco? Oh, yeah! You're here, too!
I'm like America, I never noticed you
I haven't seen your movies, and I definitely won't
Now You See Me? No, sorry, I don't

[Round 1: Dave Franco]
Cara Delevingne, part of Taylor Swift's scene
Well, here's some bad blood if you think I'm being mean
'Cause you think that you're an actor in movies right now
Trying to hide an accent thicker than your eyebrow
James, your show ends at 1:30 every week
So hello to the pets whose owners fell asleep
British hack who has to sing and dance to break into the scene
You're a less talented, much fatter Mr. Bean

[Round 2: James Corden]
Dave, your brother's cool, while you, you're a nerd
He's Marky Mark, you're Donnie Wahlberg
Don't ever think you have the skills to take me
The only funny thing you've been in is Alison Brie
My favorite Delevingne, I pick your sister Poppy
'Cause she's my favorite model, and you, you're just a copy
Hey, you and Dave, you got one thing in common
You're only famous now 'cause your older sibling's awesome!

[Round 2: Cara Delevingne]
Your Carpool Karaoke hit is purely luck
Stevie Wonder is blind, and even he can see you suck
You get to work with Reggie Watts, that must be fun
Too bad Reggie has to work with a man that looks like a thumb
Over to Dave, you're just like blood
You're thicker than water, and you destroyed Scrubs
You're both shorter than me, and I think that you'll find
I've hooked up with hotter girls than both of you combined

[Round 2: Dave Franco]
Before all your fans tweet that I'm a jerk
I'll be nice and just say, "Let the real actors work"
You're famous right now, but the comedown will be hellish
You're not a household name 'cause no one can fucking spell it
And now to respond to the dweeb across the pond
In a suit, looking like a sad, bloated James Bond
Beating me in a battle? That's a reach
You'd have to steal lines from Michelle Obama's speech
