Alright Hear This, back in my Professor Booty days I met a girl and we started hanging out. We hung out a few times and she was like "Hold It Now, Hit It." We did it Slow and Low and it was Finger Lickin' Good but in time I realized we weren't meant for each other. We broke up a few times but she would call me to Do It with no strings and I would oblige. She hid it well because She's Crafty but eventually she became obsessed and tried to Sabotage my life with some Crazy Ass Shit. I won't be Dropping Names but I am full of Gratitude that she is no longer in my life.
PS I am reading the Beastie Boys book and it is awesome.
