House of Pain

House of Pain is an American hip hop group who released three albums in the 1990s before lead rapper Everlast left to pursue his solo career again. The group's name is a reference to the H.G. Wells novel The Island of Dr. Moreau, a reference carried further by the naming of their 2011 tour "He Who Breaks the Law". The group is best known for its 1992 hit single "Jump Around", which reached number 3 in the United States, number 6 in Ireland and number 8 in the United Kingdom. The group broke up in 1996 but reformed in 2010 as House of Pain, after the trio had been members of supergroup La Coka Nostra for several years. more »

[CHORUS]

I said hey now
c'mon y'all
If there's money in your pocket and your walkin tall
Make your way to the bar and get your poison chosen
Drink it old school style in your be	-boy pose

I get off mad flows like a pack of eskimos
On a dog sled in a blizzard
'Cause I'm the Wizard of Ahh [Oz]
Shit I'm bout to wreck your set
And you steppin' to me
Is just an empty threat
Somethin' I can't sweat
Kid you never see me worry
I never been caught 'cause my hands ain't been dirty
Five years from thirty
Come check the age
If you can't rhyme simply turn the page
And I'll engage in this gift that's kicked swiftly
Stickin' to the groupie I'm out like some Jiffy
Peanut Butter
You know my style's butter
'Cause every work I utter
Rocks the sky from the gutter
I'll make ya shutter
When I rock your soul
I do things the way I like 'cause this mic is controlled
And if ya get bold
Well then ya get Vic
'Cause your knowledge is a trip
Kid, it's making me sick

[CHORUS] X2

I'm Danny Boy with the hardcore style
I'm punchin suckers in the mouth like a root canal
Ya get me started then I'm hard to stop
I got forty five calibers ready to pop
And when I pop off
Ya drop off
Ya get blown out the frame
'Cause the more shit change
The more shit stay the same
And I got no respect for your area
From Brooklyn to Dublin
I keep your ass Fumblin
'Cause I'm the fuckin ball busta
Brooklyn heartbreaker
House of Pain pimp money maker

[CHORUS] X2 [INSERT BEER OPENING AND POURING]
