"James Brown Is Dead"

The man on the radio said
James Brown is dead
The godfather of soul, lays in his bed
(Have you heard what the kids are listening to?)

Yo, uh,
Woke up, (Got high)
Sho'nuff (Sky high)
Got in the ride turned the radio up,
Then they said James Brown was dead
Is it true? Or am i just doped up
Know what? I'm calling my folks up,
They said he died 'cause hip hop sucks
Ain't got no soul like a old pair of chups,
It's about time that somebody stepped up

(Chorus)
And the man on the radio said (I regret to report)
James Brown is dead (just press record)
The godfather of soul, lays in his bed
(Have you heard what the kids are listening to?)

Hit the studio (Check 1, 2)
Sho'nuff, Yo Cisco turn my headphones up
I got a message for the kids of America
Play it loud in your Hi-Fi stereo
Wi-Fi, download the ringtone,
California Love is your theme song
Drop the guitar, letme hear the beat y'all,
Do like Dr. Brown and move your feet y'all

(Chorus)

I just got back from a little vacation
Grew some wings and flew to Vegas
Met a girl, took her 'round the world,
Form New York, New York to Ceasar's
Now i'm sitting in L.A. alone
I fell asleep with my blue jeans on
I woke up had three missed calls
They said: James Brown is gone
(James Brown is Dead)

I regret to report
Have you heard what the kids are listening to?
I regret to report James Brown is Dead
I regret to report James Brown is dead
Have you heard what the kids are listening to?

(Chorus)

And the man on the radio said (I regret to report)
James Brown is dead (just press record)
The godfather of soul, lays in his bed
