If life is the road that we're travellin on, then it's a fine line runs between Heaven and Gone So while I got a minute, I can babble a song but if I don't got no love, I'm just ramblin on Swallow too much pride, it's gonna make my belly fat I already know the shit; you don't gotta tell me that Onslaught for an encore? I smell a rat I'm gettin food here; why you wanna sell me crack? That ain't my game. I'm too long in the tooth I'd rather stay broke & spit out a song in the booth Whether what I been doin here is wrong or the truth, I elucidate the mission that I'm on to get proof Hey Hey - I'm out for gain to stay sane So now I call half my friends by stage names Whatever I say, I aim to display brains Even in the way I play games... Whatchu-whatchu want? I just wanna ride Whatchu-whatchu got? Will to survive Whatchu-whatchu gonna DO with your life? One thing at a time - Abide. I used to work 2 jobs, under 25 grand 70 hours a week, and wreckin my hands too burnt from that to keep track of MY plans Now why would I NOT get outta THAT if I can? I keep the mind limber with a drug regimen All-natural; fuck Ritalin Smokin weed in the bathtub? Get it in Now who's at my door & what thug let em in? Cops comin on the home invasion lookin for the home-grown bones I'm lacin It's only me here, stoned & wastin my life on whatever I chose for chasin Itinerary open - nascent You don't know me, so hold the phone & statements Hope cased in jokes of a boastful nation Alone in my own zone's my only placement Wicked producer, decent as a rapper but fame & fortune ain't really what I'm after Stand-up as a comic, lean as an actor Ribs breakin at the seams from my laughter Mr Nice Guy - yeah - I'm a bastard swayin 2 bottles, obscenely fuckin plastered Swingin from the lights, screamin from the rafters and like the hook-up, it only seems ugly after Doin nothing that I wouldn't regret, yep Workin for money that I shouldn't expect, yep I wanna ride thru my hood like a vet and settlin for less ain't good enough. Bet. I'm dancin under water, and never gettin wet while I'm buggin them promoters to check and vet my set It ain't worth the migraine; my head ain't in it yet Is it mornin already? I'm just gettin to bed... Fuck. So what's the moral of the tale as I tell it? Well if your life's gettin stale, fuckin sell it Cuz in this lame economy, pain is a commodity Open your heart up, displayin what it's hard to be Re-present it with a shiny little placard Don't be like me, grimy as ya last heard I miss the 90s & I'm tryin to get the last word The future is shiny, and timing is a bastard I mighta missed my moment; I dunno when it was But I was pissed to know it; I did what any does Then Hunter kicked the bucket, and I invented Buzz My thinkin then was "Fuck It. I still got plenty love." The way I'm goin, though, I'm dead in a year and I don't mean it like I'm gettin the Fear With respect to my peers, You're all blind to the vet in the mirror Til you see it, I'm just lettin you hear...

Sometimes there's a record.

I won't say a great record, cuz what's a great record?

But sometimes there's a record, and well... That's the record for its time and place. It fits right in there. And that's Dude Nukem: The Duke Abides.

Even if it's a lazy record - and that argument could be made here - quite possibly the single laziest thing you'll hear this year. But sometimes there's a record... sometimes, there's a record.

Lost my train of thought there.

Ah, hell. I done intr'duced it enough.
