ICE CUBE lyrics : "Look Who's Burnin'"

[intro: conversation between 1 and 2 + a Nurse]

[1] Ay but, what you doin up here anyway ^!$$%?

[2] Man I came up to get some rubbers man, what you doin up here?
[1] No %#@!? Man, I came up here to get a physical
[1] You know for my job, you gotta get a physical and %#@!, but..

[2] Really?
[Nurse] Philip Brown to the front desk - Philip Brown
[1] Aw that's me right there, hey man you stay up man!

[Nurse] Philip Brown!
[1] Be careful and %#@! you know...
[2] Awright then homey!

[Nurse] Philip Brown?
[1] Yeah?
[Nurse] Can I help you?

[1] Ahh, ah-uh-yeah, I'd like to get
[1] I'd like to get a physical
[Nurse] We don't give physicals here

[1] Oh you don't?
[Nurse] No, all we test for is VD, herpes, syphillis and gonorrhea
[1] I'd like to see a doctor

[Nurse] What's the matter, you BURNING?
[1] Huh??


"Stepped out my house, stopped short, oh no.." [Slick Rick]
"Why is my thing-thing burnin like this?"
[Nurse] You BURNING?

"Stepped out my house, stopped short, oh no.." [Slick Rick]
"What have I, done stuck my duck in?"


[Ice Cube]
I went to the free clinic, it was filled to capacity
Now how bad can a piece of $$# be?

Very bad, so I had to make the trip
and thank God, I didn't have the drips
I was there so a hoe couldn't gimme that

Just to get - twenty free jimmy hats
Now look who I see
Ain't that... yeah, that's the (*##$ from up the street!

With the big fat tail
who always told Cube to go to hell
She thought she was wiser

Now she's sittin in the waitin room, burnin like heat-mizer
Yeah I see ya
First Miss Thang, now Miss Gonorrhea

Man it's a trip how the world keeps turnin
It's 1991, and look who's burnin


[Chorus One: various samples (repeat 2X)]

"Does it get you hot?"

"It's got me hot!"
"This is a girl playin hard to get.." [Slick Rick]
"Burnin up, burnin!"

"What have I, done stuck my duck in?"

[Ice Cube]

Now everybody is a victim, you can go see 'em
and you'll hear more claps than the Coliseum
Sittin there all quiet and embarrassed

Whup - there go that (*##$ who was careless
I remember - she wouldn't give the @@#!
to anybody who lived on the block

Now hoe, look what you got
BEND THAT BIG !#$# OVER for the shot
Cause somebody is pipin hot

Drippin like a faucet, I'm glad I didn't toss it
Got you a college boy, who was worse than me
and he probably $#&@ed the whole university

Still wanted him to dick you down, kick you down
with some bucks, now who got $#&@ed?
With a ^!$$% for the money he's earnin

but ask for some water (*##$, and look who's burnin

[Chorus Two: various samples (repeat 2X)]


"Does it get you hot?"
"Can you get that?"
"This is a girl playin hard to get.." [Slick Rick]
"Burnin up, burnin!"

"Why is my thing-thing burnin like this?"

[Interlude: more samples]

"It burns.."

[man moaning in pain, urinating sound]
"Fitfully, sputteringly to it's end.."
{aww %#@!!!}
".. at which there is, a little surprise"
{That stupid $$#..} "!#$*!!!!"


[Ice Cube]
Yo, it ain't my fault you got the heebie-jibbies
but you still try to act like you didn't see me
So I walk over, and say "Hi,

(*##$, don't try to act surprised!"
You shoulda put a sock on the pickle
and your #~!!@ wouldn't be blowin smoke signals
Man, this is gonna kill 'em
Guess who got a big fat dose of penicillin?
They'll ask, "Who?", and I tell 'em you

The new leader of the big booty crew
And after the day, I'm sorry to say
You come through the neighborhood, you couldn't give it away
To a ^!$$%, who's out to get major paid
but you'll have him, pissin out razorblades
But a (*##$ like you..ll be returnin with the H-I-V, R.I.P.


[Chorus Three: various samples (repeat 2X)]

"You can't trust a big butt and a smile.." [KRS-One]
"I'm burning up!"
"You can't trust a big butt and a smile.." [KRS-One]
"You can't trust a big butt and a smile.." [KRS-One]
"I'm burning up!"

"What have I, done stuck my duck in?"

[Outro]
".. done stuck my duck in?"
"I'm burning up!"
"It's hot.. I'm burning up!"
