Dr. Awkward expresses his struggles on his quest of writing a popular nerd core track.
The artist references a plethora of other hit songs from his peers; hyping the emcees while working through his internal, envious thoughts.
[Verse 1]
Hey yo I'm two years in it
Still ain't got a hit
And I'm looking for an anthem
To prove that I'm legit
And maybe I should rap about Yoda
Hold up, maybe I'll just rap about soda
Rap about Hulk
How I smash nerd rap obstacles
Or crazy drug benders where I end up in the hospital
I'll rap about stuff like King Kong
Or hide a sick track where I talk about ping pong
Hot topic and say I won't shop at
A huge corporation that isn't punk rock
Maybe I'll embrace my old school dork
And write a song about the dark in a game named Zork
Or maybe later I'll just rap about LulzSec
Or the link but I'll spit it on dubstep
FPSs and how I can't be killed
Invite Felicia to join my guild
[Chorus]
Boom Head shot
I wish I would a made that
Or Meganerd
Man I wish I would a made that
I wish I would have rapped about Boba Fett's Vette
But it seems that I haven't earned my nerd cred, yet
Goth Girls
I wish I would a made that
The Rappist
Man, I wish I would a made that
I wish I would have stated that I never want to grow up
Cause then, only then, will my music start to blow up
[Verse 2]
And yo I'm thinking about writing a song in leet speak
Or rocking the kotatsu just to see that I'm a geek
Maybe just rap on some Megaman beats
And give love to the shorties and how I love sweets
Bubblegum Candy
How about Mandy
And maybe I should rap on how the girls can't stand me
Fly spaceships and browncoat pilots
Cause I am ah I am ah I am a pirate
Speak on haterism dis go on my vox
Rap in caps lock and look like Guy Fawkes
Rap behind my eyes and die trying for the river
So I'm a level up with my sword and quiver
Stardate one captain's log
And yo I'd love to write a song called "I Hate Your Blog"
Adapt the style that's punctuated when I spit
And write a song about an evil little virtuoso kid
Jet packs ice cream
Zelda pipe dream
Sonic light beams
Gym class light stream
Write a song about jocks and how they get paid back
Nerds rise up, man, I wish I would a made that
[Chorus]
Boom Head shot
I wish I would a made that
Or Meganerd
Man I wish I would a made that
I wish I would have rapped about Boba Fett's Vette
But it seems that I haven't earned my nerd cred, yet
Goth Girls
I wish I would a made that
The Rappist
Man, I wish I would a made that
I wish I would have stated that I never want to grow up
Cause then, only then, will my music start to blow up
