Obituary 2010

[Intro: Papoose]
Happy New Years

[Hook: Papoose & Karina Bradley]
Life is sort can you tell?
I'm sendin' a farewell
Here we go again the cradle to the cemetery
This is the 2010 Obituary
Farwell farewell
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo

[Verse 1: Papoose]
Gary Coleman
He was an actor
Diff'rent Strokes
He played an interesting character
Adopted out the ghetto, livin' to the fullest
Famous quote "What you talkin' 'bout, Willis?"
Born February 8th, 1968
He was a child prodigy meant to be great
Harassed by the mеdia none of the least
Hopеfully now he can finally get some peace
The cause of his death
He fell after a seizure
His ex-wife said he fell
Do you believe her?

[Verse 2: Papoose]
Guru
He was a hip-hop legend
When you listened to his words he gave lessons
Had a lot of classic albums great songs
Him and DJ Premier Gang Starr
Born July 17th, 1961
In Massachusetts he rose like the sun
The cause of his death
Cardiac arrest
I don't know if it's true but the story was a mess
A lot of conspiracy with his man Solar
When you violate the dead you'll never go far

[Hook: Papoose & Karina Bradley]
Life is sort can you tell?
I'm sendin' a farewell
Here we go again the cradle to the cemetery
This is the 2010 Obituary
Farwell farewell
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo

[Verse 3: Papoose]
George Steinbrenner
Owner of The Yankees
7 World Series titles he did it greatly
Born July 4th, 1930
Known as the boss for being strong and sturdy
If you didn't do a good job he'll fire you
If you deserved the opportunity he'll hire you
The cause of his death
A massive heart attack
So in his honor I'm wearing my Yankee hat

[Verse 4: Papoose]
Teddy Pendergrass
R&B Soul
Singer and songwriter voice solid as gold
Born March 26th, 1950
His father was murdered as a child out in Philly
5 platinum albums competition was helpless
Back then they used to call him the black Elvis
The cause of his death
He died from cancer
Why? Only God knows the answer

[Hook: Papoose & Karina Bradley]
Life is sort can you tell?
I'm sendin' a farewell
Here we go again the cradle to the cemetery
This is the 2010 Obituary
Farwell farewell
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo

[Verse 5: Papoose]
Lena Horne
She was an actress
Singer and dancer civil rights activist
Born June 30th, 1917
Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn
Home of the kings and the queens
Cause of her death
She passed away from heart failure
She died on Mother's Day

[Verse 6: Papoose]
Teena Marie
It's sad she had to go away
Singer and songwriter Rick James protégé
Born March 5th, 1956
Played on Beverly Hillbillies young actress
Motown artist had numerous hits
Square Biz who can forget
The cause of her death
She suffered from a stroke
But they still waitin' for autopsy results

[Bridge: Papoose]
R.I.P. Manute Bol
R.I.P. Ronnie James
R.I.P. Leslie Nielsen
R.I.P. Hud 6 pour some champagne
R.I.P. to Deasia
The Strongs know what that's about
R.I.P. to SP
It's thugacation to the death no doubt

[Outro: Papoose]
2010 Obituary I swear
I hope I don't have to do this again next year

[Verse 7: Karina Bradley]
Farewell farewell my friend
One day we'll meet again
Goodbye goodbye for now
Til that day comes around
You wake up in the morning
Protected search
How to make sure things are right
So to all my troops talking
Let your family know we're watching
Made the ultimate sacrifice

[Spoken verse: Karina Bradley]
Too many lives have been lost for this great nation
We praise you for your dedication
And remember you for your inspiration
Like
Marine Sergeant David J. Smith
Killed in combat January 26th
We thank you
Army private first class Barbara Vieyra
Killed when her unit was ambushed on September 18th
We thank you
And all our other troops
We thank you
Our hearts and prayers go out to you
And your families

[Hook til fade: Papoose & Karina Bradley]
