Annotation

"Michael Joe Jackson used to call me Thriller / All my enemies swear I'm Attila / Vietnam vet, burn down your villa / Captain Crunch scream, serial killer / Out in O-Town I'm a fucking pirate / Think I'm Rodney King? We can start a riot / To a fat bitch, I'm a fucking diet / You in solitary, I'm piece and quiet / This a nightmare on Elm Street / You're just a runaway, where the pimps be / You'se a thirsty man, I'm so empty / At your funeral, no sympathy"
