  EXCERPT FROM THE SHOW

"MAGIC IN DA GHETTO"Rap by Andrew BancroftWatch the video here!

There ain't no magic in da ghettoEven Pinocchio is stealin' from GepettoEven Cinderella's hella drunk in stilettosCause there ain't no Magic in da ghetto

Once upon a time I had to bust a rhymeCause in Neverneverland there's always hella crimeIt's hardcore, there ain't no Humpty Dance no moreHumpty Dumpty got shot up on the dance floor

And Goldilocks, she wears moldy socksHold up in a crack house she has to bolt three locksThe wolf's huffin' and puffin' in a cell blockCause the three little pigs are all corrupt cops        Witches doing fly-bys every dayTrolls will eat your shorty if you look the other wayAnd people sayin' men are all princes on horsesTell that story to Snow White and her seven divorcesThere ain't no magic in da ghettoEven Pinocchio is stealin' from GepettoEven Hansel's fuckin' over GretelCause there ain't no Magic in da ghettoNow when I say "Billy Goats", you say "Gruff".        Billy Goats. Billy Goats.Now when I say "Pixie", y'all say "Dust"        Pixie! (Dust!). Pixie! (Dust!)Now all the ladies in da house say "Boooty!"            (Booty!)  I said Booty!Now all the fellas in da house say "And da beast!"        (And da beast!). hellll yeaaaahh!Yo!  We gonna get outta here.Pour some of your goblet out for Humpty D- he was my egg, yo, that's myegg!I'm outta here on some jump over the moon run away with the spoon shit.Peace!
