I've seen those English dramas too, they're cruel So if there's any other way to spell the word It's fine with me, with me   Why would you speak to me that way? Especially when I always said that I Haven't got the words for you All your diction dripping with disdain Through the pain I always tell the truth   Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma? I climbed to Dharamsala too, I did I met the highest Lama, his accent sounded fine To me, to me   Check your handbook, it's no trick Take the chapstick, put it on your lips Crack a smile, adjust my tie Know your boyfriend, unlike other guys   Why would you lie about how much coal you have? Why would you lie about something dumb like that? Why would you lie about anything at all? First the window, then it's to the wall Lil' Jon, he always tells the truth   Check your passport, it's no trick Take the chapstick, put it on your lips Crack a smile, adjust my tie Know your butler, unlike other guys   Why would you lie about how much coal you have? Why would you lie about something dumb like that? Why would you lie about anything at all? First the window, then it's through the wall Why would you tape my conversations? Show your paintings at the United Nations Lil' Jon, he always tells the truth   Cousin   올해 초 발매되어 빌보드 차트 1위를 석권한 앨범, ‘Contra’에서 싱글 커트된 Cousin의 따끈따끈한 새 뮤직비디오를 감상하세요. :)   <EMBED src=http://www.youtube.com/v/1e0u11rgd9Q&hl=ko_KR&fs=1 width=640 height=385 type=application/x-shockwave-flash allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" wmode="transparent" allowScriptAccess='sameDomain'></EMBED>    Cousin   You found a sweater on the ocean floor. They're gonna find it if you didn't close the door. You and the smart one sit outside of their sight, In a house on a street they wouldn't park on at night.   Dad was a risk taker, his was a shoe maker, You, greatest hits 2006 little list maker.   Heard codes in the melodies, you heeded the call, You were born with ten fingers, and you're gonna use em all.   Interest in colors I discovered myself. If your art-life is gritty, you'll be toastin' my health. If an interest in culture, you should be lining the walls, When your birthright is interest, you could just accrue it all.   Me and my cousins, and you and your cousins, It's a line that’s always running.   Me and my cousins and you and your cousins, I can feel it coming.   You can turn your back on the bitter world. You can turn your back on the bitter world. You can turn your back on the bitter world. You can turn your back on the bitter world.   Me and my cousins, and you and your cousins, It's a line that’s always running.   Me and my cousins and you and your cousins, I can feel it coming.               지산밸리록페스티벌 공식 홈페이지 <A href="http://www.valleyrockfestival.com/" target=_blank>http://www.valleyrockfestival.com/</A>   Mnet온라인예매 <A href="http://event.mnet.com/jisan/" target=_blank>http://event.mnet.com/jisan/</A>
