HEY! IM CANCER
Hi, my name is Cancer
I shoot bullets to the brain
And if you stay awhile, I shoot venom out of stakes
Maybe you can’t relate, but I’m a warning sign for those of you who take my pride
Hi, my name is Cancer, and this is how I live life
You sell a drug to my cell, and I’ll do anything
I spit propane, that’s why they call me Novocain
I hit the cell like dynamite
Hurt like hell? Well maybe you shouldn’t have fell on my tissue cells.
Got a problem? Ask doctor T
Cause my name is Cancer and I don’t do no hysterectomy
Got that adrenaline rush? Drink some punch, it’ll go away a day I messed you up
While I’m on my cycle, sit inside, don’t be shy
Those drugs will make you high
Be happy, you get to shoot hoops like Mike.
When I’m gone, just carry on. But remember me when you thought your dreams would become deadly,
While you tossed and turned in your sleep
Think of me when you’ve thought you’ve run your last race
And you got tripped on a shoe while you walk ‘in kids to school.
Think of me when you disagree with me every time I come against your destiny
Think of me the next time you want to mess with my cancer cells.
