Masterstroke

Written by Bootsauce from The Brown Album, 1990



(Persons with epilepsy are advised against watching the above music video, due to the intense flashing lights throughout.)

Well, I was over at my brother's
He said, "I got something to do"
I said, "Yo, motherfucker, I must be
Talking to you," then it went--

(sick fucking guitar break)
Ooh ooh ooh, yeah

I said, then it got real scary
He just, ah, wouldn't turn it down
I said, looking out the window,
"Yo, your mother must be brown,"
Then it went--

(guitar break)
Ooh ooh ooh, yeah

I just couldn't believe Esther, man
She just freaked right out last night (ah yeah)
Give her one too many, Christ,
Then listen to her shout
I said now, looking out on Sundays
Like they're Monday afternoons
You get really kinda funky
When you're looking for that groove
I said now, Sunday's after Monday,
And I can't believe the grass, sugar
Shake it over backwards
Like you're shaking your old ass

The weekend went real slowly, yeah,
A little give, a little take
I said now, up and down like Casper,
Night went, aw, shake shake

(guitar break)
Ooh ooh ooh, yeah

(Ling, screaming like a feral animal) I said! I can't believe (???) scream! I said, I said, I said you're no (???) Ow! Ow! Too many people at a time! The song is finished! On and on! Do I give a fuck if I don't (???) Ow! Fuck you! Fuck you! Oww! I don't give a fuck (???) This is "Masterstroke"! This is Bootsauce! This is the end! This is, the end! Fuck you, a song! This is a song! This is Bootsauce!

Masterstroke...what are you people...?

Notes

  • "Masterstroke" is a term meaning an extremely clever, timely move.
  • Any tips as to what Ling is actually screaming towards the end of this song are greatly appreciated.
