Differences

October 8th, 2014

The other evening while waiting for a train, I decided to write an intentionally terrible rap song about a relationship gone sour due to irreconcilable differences. Here it is in all its glory:

You ride Muni and I ride BART
That’s why we’ll always be apart
I like the Giants, you don’t like baseball
There’s no chance we’ll get along at all
You smoke pot, and I, crack
The differences between us are a fact

 
[chorus]
I say “SF” but you say “Frisco”
The only word that rhymes here is “disco”
At first I liked you, you made me feel at ease
Until I found out you still like Thee Oh Sees
Our differences are tall as Sutro Tower
I give you zero stars like Michael Bauer

 
I live in the Mission but you’re in West Portal
My love for you will never be immortal
Your startup is funded, I’m at the loan shark
We’re as unnatural as Golden Gate Park
Sorry baby but we have to disband
I’m flat broke, I’m moving to Oakland

 

I’m looking forward to my Grammy nomination.

Run Lee

July 18th, 2011

Okay Ed, you need to make up your mind NOW. Are you going to run for mayor? If not, stop teasing people and tell us if you’d like to get your old job back. If so, fine, go for it — you couldn’t be any worse than the last joker we had.

Anyway, I spent approximately 3 minutes making you the best campaign poster of all time. So if you decide to run, don’t be a sucker MC; put on your Adidas and use this poster.
