Week in Rap Transcript for October 5, 2009

Updated: October 08, 2009

Hey y'all, this week they found my great great great great grandma,
Found her in the ground Ethiopia ,

Yeah! And they call her Ardi,
With her little brain, bet she wasn't a smarty,

The oldest known human ancestor, buddy,
So old she owes Fred Flintstone money,

And some scientists had a nice surprise,
Brrrrng?. Hello? You won a Nobel prize,

For work on fiber optics and ribosomes,
They have to share, didn't win the prize alone,

Astronomers found the biggest ring on Saturn,
Just because you can't see doesn't mean it don't matter,

Over in Chicago they wanted to claim,
The right to host some Olympic games,

I hope Obama doesn't cry for days,
Because Chicago got the Shaft like Isaac Hayes,

It'll be in Brazil , in Rio ,
We're learning Portuguese in case we go,

So say Tchao to Chicago 's hopes,
And say Oi to Brazilian folks, you know,

Life isn't a dream being a teen,
Cuz Cash Rules Everything Around Me - C.R.E.A.M

Get the money, dollar, dollar bills y'all,
BUT A QUARTER OF TEENS LOOKING, CANT' FIND A JOB

That's the worst it's been in sixty years,
We can't all be rich teens like Britney Spears,

More bad news, y'all just listen,
BUT 1 IN 100 KIDS HAVE AUTISM

The rate so high, they don't' know why, dang,
Is it sunny? Nah, it looks like rain, man,

Across the globe in Afghanistan ,
We're fighting a war with the Taliban, (I know)

But do we have the right strategy and plans?
Obama and his team are reconsidering,

The Supreme Court started up again,
Sotomayor made her debut, and in an hour,

She asked more questions, to be clear,
Than Clarence Thomas has asked in many years,

They're going to decide if dog fight DVD's,
Are protected by the freedom of speech,

Some speech ain't free like libel,
OR some say Cheerleaders who were quoting the Bible,

Flocab - get it, get it, got it, got it, I'm good,
The Week in Rap on the track like you know that we should
