They was told not to ride in Patty's Hearst and stay out of Charles Manson

They took Abraham's Lincoln through the Todd Bridge Expansion

Willis Reeds a map that marks the spot showin'

On his left George Burns a blunt that William's Holden

Tyra Banks the money that Chaka Khanned her for

Alicia Keyed his car for giving Melba Moore

For the Red Foxx she bought off the block but thought twice

As Deborah Cox the gun cuz she beat Kelly's Price

Rosa Parks the truck on a farm in Kim Fields

Linda Tripped for trying to walk in Lauryn's Hills

Water dripped out of Farrah's Fawcett in a glass

If she was Superfly then Curtis Mayfield her ass

Chris Tucker to a show, Ted Turner to a ho

Robert Diggs the Beat but ain't feeling the flow

But he signed it fast for half of Johnny's Cash

Nia Long for the album to drop, cameras flash

Tom Sawyer at the Lucille Ball up in the foyer

Where he confronted Richard Pryor to hiring his lawyer

Suge's Knight removed the rook off the board

Don King was checked then Al Sharpton his sword

I'm wettin' cream I ain't wettin' fame

The fame is the measure

Rap celeb, A place where stars are born

The saints marched in as Curtis Blow Lena's Horne

Tom Cruise the boulevard, Chris Rock the song

For the 100th time they press rewind to the beginning

As they toast to the rhyme the juice spilled on John's Lennon

They took it to Elizabeth's Taylor to dry clean

A known seamstress who was scheming on Al's Green

You know they shoot for the Stars and BuckWild

Like the kids in the yard who play with James Child

A beautician laced Erykah's Badu

Sean Combs through the evidence just to get a clue

The needle in the haystack from out of Eartha's Kitt

Knew a Tiger Woods kill him once thrown in Bradd's Pitt

Jesse Owen the money for the weed Bubba Sparxx

Made his journey seem far as he walked in Dick's Clarks

Jesse's Lyon stuck with a thorn from George Bush

Paul Pierce in the heart as the crowd push

Acting alone Drew Barrymore bones

Of her victims three blocks from Jim Brown-stone

They shared the same bowl he caught Natalie's Cole

A producer threw the butter on Esther Roll

Nipsey Russell him down got his jaw wired in an instant

Brooke Shields him from the gunfire

Angie Stoned him to death with those vocals

Keith Sweat from the workout just from running local Chorus

Larry's Bird flew out of Nicholas Cage

Joe Tex messages from Satchel's Paige

Betty Wright letters with the ink from Sean's Penn

Infinite bars you can't tell where the song end

Glenn Close enough to quickly dub the tape

Richard Gere rip from climbing Bill's Gates

He was a southerner posing as a native New Yorker

Where Jason Kidd took his first steps in Jimmy's Walker

They stayed online chatting with rap celebs

And used Bernie's Mac to search Veronica's Webb

It cost them their life for the advice they gave

Now Pete Rose lay on Vanessa's Redgrave.
