What are words worth?
What are words worth? Words


Words in papers, words in books
Words on TV, words for crooks
Words of comfort, words of peace

Words to make the fighting cease
Words to tell you what to do
Words are working hard for you

Eat your words but don't go hungry
Words have always nearly hung me


What are words worth?
What are words worth? Words


Words of nuance, words of skill
And words of romance are a thrill
Words are stupid, words are fun

Words can put you on the run

mots pressés, mots sensés,

mots qui disent la vérité, mots maudits, mots mentis,
mots qui manquent le fruit d'esprit

It's a rap race, with a fast pace
Concrete words, abstract words
Crazy words and lying words

Hazy words and dying words
Words of faith and tell me straight
Rare words and swear words

Good words and bad words

What are words worth?

Words can make you pay and pay

Four-letter words I cannot say
Panty, toilet, dirty devil
Words are trouble, words are subtle

Words of anger, words of hate
Words over here, words out there
In the air and everywhere

Words of wisdom, words of strife
Words that write the book I like
Words won't find no right solution

To the planet earth's pollution
Say the right word, make a million
Words are like a certain person

Who can't say what they mean
Don't mean what they say
With a rap rap here and a rap rap there

Here a rap, there a rap
Everywhere a rap rap


Rap it up for the common good
Let us enlist the neighbourhood
It's okay, I've overstood

This is a wordy rappinghood, okay, bye.
