A Rap For Nutmeg

Heard music coming from the basement. It was music with an aggressive edge, music with a message. I wasn't sure of the genre until I heard the Mad Woman yell "Turn that crappy rap music off!" At that moment, with MW's shrill voice still ringing in my ears, I had an epiphany. This, I thought to myself, is a way to make Nutmeg listen. Simply talking to her doesn't work. But rap ... rap is powerful ... rap will help me stand up to my bossy little cagemate once and for all.

I have invited Nutmeg into the pigloo tonight at 7pm. It is then that I will perform "Will ya just listen to me for once, Nutmeg? Please?" (too harsh? keep in mind, I am in love with her)

Here it is:

Nutmeg why you be so mean
You think you are the bloody queen
Nutmeg why you be so rude
You be hogging all the food

Nutmeg, oh my Nutmeg, Nutmeg, oh my Nutmeg
(this is where I beatbox)

Nutmeg you know I love you girl
My head be spinning in a whirl
But why you always put me down

Always turn my smile upside down

Nutmeg, oh my Nutmeg, Nutmeg, oh my Nutmeg
(this is where I start making annoying scratch noises)

So Nutmeg please start to share
Oh Nutmeg please start to care
Or I'll be walking outta here

And I'll never come back .

Word.


So there it is. I am hoping that using the word "down" twice as an ending rhyme will not be my downfall. I welcome any comments or suggestions.
