This is a song about what it's like being a comedy-rap god.
lyrics
Yeah! This is a story you won’t see on Cribs! Or Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous! Maybe Hoarders.
Big-time rapper, I’m a legend in the game
Like that guy from Mega-Man 2, what’s his name?
You know the one with the bubbles, ah whatever, I digress
I’m the best funny rapper ‘cause I’m better than the rest
Devo Spice is the name to remember
Not a Spice Girl, no I was never a member
With an old school flow I can bring the heat
That means I don’t mumble and I rap on the beat
For the nerds and the muggles, yo, I’m rockin’ a sound
Big fish in a puddle now I’m floppin’ around
Countin’ up my money, that’s when I realize
I got enough that I can supersize my fries
(chorus)
‘Cause I’m living that life
The comedy-music life
Yeah, I’m living that life
The comedy-music life
I’ve toured everywhere from the east to the west
And my guide on the Jungle Cruise Ride was the best
Do you know how I know my career’s gonna last?
I’m the number one artist on my uncle’s podcast
Comedy-rap is kind of a niche
So finding new fans is kind of a bitch
But I got fans all around the whole world, I maintain
That there’s two in California and at least one in Spain
I brought enough CDs for everyone at the show
To buy multiple copies, so come on, let’s go
And you know few artists can do this, so I’m proud
That I can name everybody in the crowd
[chorus]
Comedy clubs don’t want music and so
I go to music clubs to put on a comedy show
But they don’t want that so I try at conventions
But rappers in filk circles just raise tensions
But I won’t be stopped, no way I can lose
Now this YouTube video has over seventy views
I’m a legend in the comedy-rap world of the weird
Over-forty-from-New-Jersey-rappers-with-a-red-beard
On my throne I’m the king of everything all around
But when I get up and flush it doesn’t always go down
I hit the town in a car that I got such a great deal
Pimpin’ three-wheel motion ‘cause I’m missing a wheel
I can’t sit down because my wallet’s so fat
Got so many receipts crammed into that
Spending so much money day in and day out
That my credit cards are mostly maxed out
[chorus]
Clerk: Sir.... Sir!... SIR! Excuse me, sir!! That's nice and all, but if you don't tell me what you want to order I'll have to ask you to leave. You're holding up the drive-thru.
Devo: Oh, sorry. Yeah, um, let me have a number seven.
Clerk: What do you want to drink?
Devo: Diet Coke.
Clerk: OK, do you want to super-size that?
Devo: Hell yeah I wanna super size that! You know why?
Clerk: Oh no…
[chorus]

Devo Spice is a nerdcore and comedy rapper from New Jersey who has been called "the red-headed stepson of Weird Al Yankovic
and Eminem." His demented brand of hip hop made him one of the most popular artists on the nationally syndicated Dr. Demento Show. In 2011 Devo Spice released the album "Gnome Sane?" and it went to number #28 on the Hip Hop charts on iTunes....more
Awesome Weird Al tribute album featuring MC Frontalot, MC Lars, MC Chris, Kobi LaCroix, Worm Quartet, Luke Ski, Steve Goodie, Marc With A C, and more! Devo Spice
supported by 5 fans who also own “The Comedy-Music Life”
Technically my favorite track is "You Don't Know Jack (Plan B)", because it's just a great reimagining (Some Jerk with a Camera is now officially a reimagineer).
But a lot of the album is good, and the "Luke Ski Phase 2" stuff is also good, but different. Erin A Cobb
