lyrics

Tiger Mom
The Comos

VERSE 1:
You can trust me. I am a doctor
Gynecologist. Ass Proctor
And I ace all them tests that haters try to proctor
Independent Genius, while your parents helicopter

And I know what that’s about. I was raised by a Tiger Mom
Sit your ass up on that couch no games no Pokemon.
But Mom just one more level, I’m about to beat Brock
My friend’s already in Viridian, it’s a game against the clock!

But she ripped my Gameboy up out my hands and kicked it across the room
She threw a tissue box, I blocked it, but in her hands she held a broom saying
Boy you better sit your ass up upon the couch.
You better behave yourself or you gon know what I’m about

Start studying for the SATs. Mom what you talking about?
I’m only in the eighth grade all my friends are trying to get laid. I’m already getting straight A’s I haven’t slept in ten days!
Why do I gotta be the one sitting here formulating ways thinking about how I’m gonna get paid?

CHORUS
Just take the easy route
Just take the easy route
Boy, what you talkin’ bout, just take the easy route!

RAP CHORUS
Work hard work hard. You ain’t got no time to play
All my friends be masturbating, while I’m memorizing plays
To beat or not to beat? Question of the century
All this pressure swirling round me while I’m out here burning trees

Getting high getting high while im smoking purple rain
I be mackin on your girl while she listening to Train
Saying Hey Soul Sister, my name ain’t T-Pain
Cuz I don’t need Autotune to fucking sing love sangs

CHORUS
Just take the easy route
Just take the easy route
Boy, what you talkin’ bout, just take the easy route!

VERSE 2:
They be like Simon Simon. What the fuck you think you’re doing?
Rapping? Stop! Everyone’s already booing.
Look the crowd’s leaving, even before you start
Just acknowledge your skin tone and play your part. Don’t get it?

You’re Korean. Go study or something
Work your ass off in college, be a doctor you’re nothing without an
MD, PHD focus on getting your degree. You’re never gonna be an MC
Just forget about getting on TV

No Marquee no Big screen soon enough you’ll be selling big screens
Are you really gonna waste your life at Best Buy working for the Geek Team?
Making 10 dollars an hour you’ll be working part time flipping burgers dough? Sour.

Cower. You bring your family shame.
Stop frontin’ like you bout to change the rap game.
Your parents didn’t emigrate all the way here from Korea just so you could pursue a shitty rap career. For real?

CHORUS
Just take the easy route
Just take the easy route
Boy, what you talkin’ bout, just take the easy route!

RAP CHORUS
Work hard work hard. You ain’t got no time to play
All my friends be masturbating, while I’m memorizing plays
To beat or not to beat? Question of the century
All this pressure swirling round me while I’m out here burning trees

BRIDGE
Mmm what you talkin’ bout
This is the only way out
Don’t wanna hear you scream and shout
Just take the easy route

CHORUS
Just take the easy route
Just take the easy route
The hell you talkin’ bout
Just shut up and take the…easy route
