Open Mike Eagle
Everybody’s Birthday
[Chorus]
Everybody's rappin', everybody's sellin' clothes
Everybody's picture-takin', shootin' videos
In the city of LA, follow me is what the shirts say
'Cause every day in the city is everybody's birthday
Every day in the city is everybody's birthday
Everybody's rappin', everybody's sellin' clothes
Everybody's picture-takin', shootin' videos
In the city of LA, follow me is what the shirts say
'Cause every day in the city is everybody's birthday
[Verse 1]
Everybody has their own cupcake and twitter updates
Say I must make every event, but I'm slow on the uptake
And what makes me the target demo for your club date
I'm a nutcase displayin' an obvious what-the-fuck face
And what makes a dude promotor, a crew, and a host
[?]
When the music is over there's puke on the sofa
And he's stuck singing a sad ass song, choose the composer
In LA, the label promoter is just a code word for a broke herb
Trying to get the homies [?]
Live music or spoken word, the shadiness is observed
And pre-scale tickets, homie, you must be outcha 'burb, 'cause...
[Chorus]
Everybody's rappin', everybody's sellin' clothes
Everybody's picture-takin', shootin' videos
In the city of LA, follow me is what the shirts say
'Cause every day in the city is everybody's birthday
Every day in the city is everybody's birthday
Everybody's rappin', everybody's sellin' clothes
Everybody's picture-takin', shootin' videos
In the city of LA, follow me is what the shirts say
'Cause every day in the city is everybody's birthday
[Verse 2]
Make a wish birthday boy, don't let the [?]
[?]
A million cats in Los Angeles with dreams as lame as this
There's no communication just people schemin' on angles
Everybody's a label intern or movie catererin'
But their work resume is featherweight and paper thin
They all breakin' in the fame, but they wages stay the same
How you gon' win races, too busy stayin' in your lane
Play the game with your lame name droppin' I won't complain
But in the next rap election, I'm votin' for change
[Chorus]
Everybody's rappin', everybody's sellin' clothes
Everybody's picture-takin', shootin' videos
In the city of LA, follow me is what the shirts say
'Cause every day in the city is everybody's birthday
Every day in the city is everybody's birthday
Everybody's rappin', everybody's sellin' clothes
Everybody's picture-takin', shootin' videos
In the city of LA, follow me is what the shirts say
'Cause every day in the city is everybody's birthday
