I'm a rap star, wear lots of jewelrey
with flashy clothes, they're saying who is he?
my album flopped last year, and so i changed my name
but they're still saying who is he?

and thats about the time reason it escaped me
nobody likes a man called "puff daddy"
and think comedians have better names
why ain't ken dodd suing me,
my friends say they forget my name
whats my name again?
whats my name again?

then i pretend, to do a drive-by
i made my name, when my mate died
I bought off all the cops, got my passport altered
the state looks down on fake ID

and thats about the time i got my company
nobody likes a rap star to be cheap
and still gets invited on tv shows
why won't Oprah speak to me
my friends still all laugh at my name
whats my name again?
whats my name again?

and thats about the time my parents spoke to me
nobody knows you when you're thirty three
and still pretends to be down with the kids
magazines won't speak to me
my friends still all laugh at my name
whats my name again?
whats my name again?
