Open Mike Eagle - Alternate Endings lyrics

Step inside of my office, about the size a new york apartment Doctor Jarbo, not Jarvis, my mother's name is doris Got my Wu-Tang records on the wall but 3 degrees to dwarf it Soundtrack is NPR had a crush on audie cornish I do orthodontics, prosthodontics, endodontics and surgery And today only, take 10% off cause its my anniversary Am i a rapper? that's a odd query, cause I am a rap listener But i spend my days in my choice of trade which is oral health practitioner Dentist, to the layman - or a DDS cuz my DAT's Were outstanding, its demanding, 8 years of school and still standing Got them weekly readers on deck, or the new york times for the older folks Used to keep some Jet magazines but Page 43, kept going ghost And I don't play games with that nitrous, my practice here is most righteous Yet if i was a musician, I'd probably go out like Linus How'd I pick this profession? it seemed it came so easily Most children they fear the dentist, but my visits went pleasingly So here I am CHORUS You look so familiar but I can't figure out Why i think that i recognize ya, don't know what its about It's like a parallel existence, but i know that's fiction Or is it… or is it.. (Open Mike Eagle) Step inside of my office I heard you lost it Your teacher said you been talking And the lunchroom monitor saw you dumping your sausage Man get off it You acting out like you don't know what this is costing I'm trying to be cool and rap with you But you lose your privileges often You say you trying but I can't tell Cause you ain't in cla** by the late bell And I'm only gone freestyle with the students That act right and behave well And you know this.. You have all the control Focusing on your goals And you too old... Trying to ask me about rapping To some students it's an outlet And to others it's a distraction It all depends on how you be acting Did you finish your application? Cause rap for me was a pa**ion But the path is graduation Be cool... CHORUS You look so familiar but I can't figure out Why i think that i recognize ya, don't know what its about It's like a parallel existence, but i know that's fiction Or is it… or is it..
