Misheard Lyrics:
I remember when Cass and Kay tripped the switch
Taking trips to Zimbabwe
Africa started calling the guards and I'll say, "Ooh, bye, yay! So what!"
If the guards be sticking to their nutrition, lightning stricken
Taking trips to Zimbabwe
Africa started calling the guards and I'll say, "Ooh, bye, yay! So what!"
If the guards be sticking to their nutrition, lightning stricken
Original Lyrics:
I remember when Cassius Clay flipped the script
Taking trips to Zimbabwe
Africans started calling the God Ali Bumbaye, so bwoy
It be the God stricken, God nutrition, lightly stricken
Taking trips to Zimbabwe
Africans started calling the God Ali Bumbaye, so bwoy
It be the God stricken, God nutrition, lightly stricken
The above lines were rapped by Busta Rhymes.
