The Legend of Dolemite- Ghetto Superhero




Dolemite is my name
Rappin and tappin is my game
I'm the King of the Jungle
That took Tarzan's crown
Grabbed an elephant by his trunk and swung him around
I arm wrestled a lion and put his arm in a cast
Beat the stripes off a tiger's a**
Man and beast step aside wherever I go
I walked past a cornfield and scared the scarecrow
I picked up a stone and built an empire
Harnessed the power of earth, wind and fire
My strength is disturbing and my might is so unique
Death said if I promised not to hurt him he'd come back in another week
I busted hell wide open and kicked in the door
Told everybody to shut the fu** up
And get on the floor
Soon they accepted me as their leader and as they began to bow
I told Satan to step aside cuz I was runnin sh** now
Yes I've survived many dangers I'm hard to kill
I'm full of so many surprises I could shock an eel
I kicked Monday's a**
And told Tuesday and Wednesday to look out
Made Thursday turn around and made Friday change his route
And when Saturday and Sunday finally came to an end
I was ready to put my foot in Monday's a** again
Dogs have bit me but they didn't pierce my skin
A bee stung me and instead of me swelling up it was him
Im the one that cut off Captain Hook's hand and fed it to the alligator
Took Long John Silver's leg and left him with a peg
I robbed Triton for his trumpet and left him high and dry
I kicked Poseidon out the ocean and watched him shrivel up and die
Ive been known to rise up
But I'll cool down later
I'm a bad motor scooter
I'm the Human Tornado.


Dedicated to Rudy Ray Moore and to all the street poets and ghetto geniuses that never got recognized in their lifetime for their immense talent and their immeasurable greatness.
