(yo,
check the gutters)
Look down in the drain pipe
Skinny little pale thing scratching in the dark
(kobe's scratches, man)
Creeping down under where the runoff flows Pale skin stretched tight over
crooked bones Whole block calls him Smeagol,
look at him twitch Scrabbling in muck at the bottom of the
ditch Sniffing on crusts that nobody would claim
Mold on the rind,
got no pride to his name Tail dragging mud,
always running on thin
Clawing at the grate just to beg to get in
That's Smeagol in the gutter with the scratches on his back Pale
little freak on a rotten scrap track (kobe's scratches!) Eating stale mold
while the city walks by Scavenging the drain with that sideways eye
(yeah,
look at him scurry!)
Saw you ducking by the curb by the corner store grate Licking
sour crumbs off an old paper plate Looking like a ghost washed
out in the rain
Ribs poking out while you choke on the drain Nobody respect you,
even roaches move fast Left behind in the sludge,
coming dead in last Scratched up and bony,
squeaking for scraps Living in the dark off the city's leftovers and
traps
That's Smeagol in the gutter with the scratches on his back Pale
little freak on a rotten scrap track (kobe's scratches!) Eating stale mold
while the city walks by Scavenging the drain with that sideways eye
(stay down there!)
Look at him hide
(pale little thing)
Nothing but a pest on the pavement
(clawing the concrete)
Got the whole block laughing at you,
rat
That's Smeagol in the gutter with the scratches on his back Pale
little freak on a rotten scrap track (kobe's
scratches!)
Eating stale mold while the city walks by Scavenging the drain with
that sideways eye
(yeah,
look at him run!)
Stay in the sewer,
Smeagol
Kobe's scratches all over you (hahaha)
