Nuthin' Nice

Woke with a heavy head from last night's revelry
Tripping momentarily off what I said, was that me?
Now let's see, shit, shower and shave
Stave off hunger pains explain to the guy it's toast for lunch again
Not today, I just got paid
So I'm walking up the corner store as if I got it made
What can I say, it was a lovely day
Just a shame that some cats don't let their love display
So anyway I'm in the store and I'm grabbing bits and pieces
And this girl down by the door is giving
Me a look that says "freeze, kid"
Or "Jesus, is this lady sales or security?"
Scrutiny is new to me in my community
I said "Excuse me, umm what does this cost?"
She is silent staring at me like I'm totally lost
What? Did everybody stop speaking while I was sleeping?
Or do my words appear to her like bubbles from the deep end?
In that case I'm freaking out, without a doubt
But I don't really think that is what we're talking about
I had a similar situation down at the train station
Peek out a carriage shot enough to stay patient
This screw-face is using his suitcase to nudge me
But I didn't budge see, cause he ain't above me
Said nothing when I told him that he pissed me off
I locked my feet beneath the seat and so we missed his stop

When you're asking how you're doing and not just the price
Got to do with being human and it ain't nothing nice
Man it's really damn hard to say hello twice
Got to do with being human and it ain't nothing nice
When you're pizzeria giving you beef with each slice
Got to do with being human and it ain't nothing nice
Nah, it ain't nothing nice, no way
And it ain't nothing nice

So I got off and I'm walking to the club feeling it's all love
I got a pocket full of rhymes and a few new dubs
That I am oh so keen to bust, and I'm dusted
But trust the bouncer to do his job with so much gusto
"Sir, are you intoxicated?" What? You know my face kid
I could sleep for five days and I'd still look wasted
He said "No way", so I called my friend
Who said "There's a fight inside" and I walked right in
So we're getting to the end of the night, been alright
Dancefloor, live as of right and not one mic fight
Until this kid who's having trouble sitting says "Can I spit it?"
I said "Man, unless you mean tobacco I'd say you kid it"
And the next thing you know he telling anyone that'll listen
That he was a mad fan and then I stepped up and dissed him
What? Tonight my stars are out of line, I can't stay
No cabs have picked me up so I walked the whole way

When you're asking how you're doing and not just the price
Got to do with being human and it ain't nothing nice
Man it's really damn hard to say hello twice
Got to do with being human and it ain't nothing nice
When you're pizzeria giving you beef with each slice
Got to do with being human and it ain't nothing nice
Nah, it ain't nothing nice, no way
And it ain't nothing nice
