Shareek the Greek

Back in the day

when I was working my way

out of the depth and the mud

busting my chops

Made a quick buck

Here's what you might have heard

I found a calling card

It looked kinda bizarre

In purple pink letters it read

Shareek the Greek

35th 63

If you want your future read

So I took a drive

to the edge of a knife

And in a shady neighbourhood

a buzzin' neon light

The last house on the right

a big blue hand with an eye

As I entered the room

oriental perfume

hit me like a jolt to the head

There he sat

behind a yellow desk

Shareek the Greek himself

He said sit down my friend

While he shuffled his deck

I felt a chill running down my spine

As he laid out the sun

he pulled out a gun

and aimed it right in between my eyes

Man, what is this all about

He started laughing out loud

Then he laid down the piece and he said

Now you've seen death in the eye

You will be freed for life

from pain, from fear and regret

That'll be a 105

And he cracked a big smile

as I looked for my wallet, confused

That was when I snapped

and smashed him hard in the head

with a crystal ball, so cruel

As shareek the greek

bled to his death

I took back my money and ran

Now if you wanna find out

how your future turns out,

he will never spell it again
