This Song Is Not About Anything
I'm a cool rapper, like an ice cream cone
Like the cool rapper on an ice cream cone
I throw rappers on the ground, but not wrappers on the ground
I weigh 160 pounds and I'm a big fan of this hound

Uh, now I'll just make some rhyming sounds
Drowned, bound found, wound, noun, all around
You may notice that this rap's not coherent
Well when it comes to lyrics most people don't hear it

They just focus on the beat, and if the rappers on Xanax
So why waste my time with meaning or syntax?
When I'm on the beat I drop it
Editing an image, crop it
Dance like a fish, flop it
Start making sense, stop it

I drop bars, like I drop bars at the gym
The signs at the gym say "Don't drop the bars"
But the signs? I disregard
Cause the weights are too large
For my very small arms

I'm the best rapper around, period
Unless there's another rapper around, semicolon
In which case I might not be the best rapper around, ellipses
It would really depend on the quality the rappers around me

This song is not about anything
(Didn't think of a topic)
This song is not about anything
(Not a single thing)
The only thing that this song's about is how
It's not about anything

Yeah I'm not making any points here, there's no theme or meaning
But maybe there is, maybe on a closer reading
Could it be the pointlessness of this rap is actually
A commentary on society?

Is this rap a meta rap
About how most raps are crap?
All we grasp is the beat in the back
If the words match with the track we say "This song slaps!"
But we should ask for art that's more than that
Much much much more than that
You know?
Cause eventually
We'll start to believe
The things we listen to on repeat
So if we only listen to songs about money and girls
We'll start to think those are the only
Important things in the world
And if we listen to songs about nothing at all
We'll start to feel petty, meaningless, and small
Is this rap saying we need songs
That make us think about ourselves
Is that what this whole thing is really about?
No, it's not

This song is not about anything
(I thought that was clear)
This song is not about anything
(I really tried to make it clear)
The only thing that this song's about is how
It's not about anything

And am I the only one that thinks it's really fucked up
How when you go to Starbucks and they give you a cup
It's coated in wax, you can't recycle that
So you gotta throw recyclable things in the trash
You should be able to ask for a cup without wax
Or without their new plastic lids
Which actually uses more plastic then their plastics straws did
But this rap isn't about the environment
I'm tired of writing lyrics
This is making too much sense
Blabbedy bloo, blabbedy bench
Just make sounds with your mouth and no one will care
Bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbear

Wow this rap was really easy to write
Maybe making meaningless art can be alright
I was gonna spend all day writing this song
Now I can just spend it smoking a bong

See ya
