Make Me Laugh-T.J. Miller/Ugly Duckling

Make Me Laugh (Feat. Ugly Duckling) - T.J. Miller Hey! Uh huh! Woo! Check it, check it on out. Ugly Duckling Now we've done tons of tours out to distant shores If we couldn't afford beds then we slept on floors To play, (sleazy dives?), after ten hour drives Scrapin' by, tryin' to keep the music alive I started off working coffee shops Two blocks from my mom's spot, man I never thought I'd do this for a living, let alone make dough All I ever wanted was the crowd to yell "Ho!" T.J. Let me take you on a journey, yo it's time to embark I would go anywhere for the love of my art So I don't need a limo, just a town car And I could deal if my hotel is four stars I'm roughin' it, man, RIP Liz Taylor As long as I don't have to share a trailer And if they sold out of the first class tickets Heh..heh.. I migh- I might like to fly business U.D. Business class, wow. Man, we gotta drive to shows. T.J. Yeah, well, you know, for me it's making cutbacks It's all about paying dues, right? U.D. That's not really paying dues, T.J. Here we go From coast to coast, y'all, all over the map It's not about the money, it's all about the craft They think it's so easy, but they don't know the half Let's take it to the stage, man you only make me laugh You only make me laugh <repeated> Now, it's no joke the way they promote materialism Imma kick a little lecture, get your head up and listen It's a course, dead set, to a head on collision You'll end up dead or in prison, make a better decision My bank account doesn't hold huge amounts And I'd be lying if I said I wrote a check that never bounced Don't need the whole cake, just a slice or a portion Don't do it for the fame, won't do it for the fortune T.J. People all about the greed and it's tasteless So in my life, I only need the basics Food, shelter, and my dad's Rolex Plus a couple tropical spots in which to relax Hip-hop isn't about the money that you make It's about other people's ideas and which ones you take You talk about the chicks and the nuts that you bust I prefer to pay one hooker, I'm monogamous (I'm monogamous, I'm monogamous...) U.D. Yo, yo, man. Calm down, brah. TJ, relax, man; you gotta be cool. T.J. Well, I kinda messed up the verse beforehand So then I went all DMX, I don't know what happened. U.D. Here we go. T.J. Alright, alright. From coast to coast, y'all, all over the map It's not about the money, it's all about the craft They think it's so easy, but they don't know the half Let's take it to the stage, man you only make me laugh You only make me laugh <repeated> Einstein, go! <turntable scratching> Hey! Woo! Andy Cooper, Dizzy Dusty, Einstein is the D.J. Rockin' it, who we rockin' around here... T.J.! Dude, you sound soft, speak up for goodness sake I'm just a little nervous, could we do another take? We haven't got all day for you to learn to M.C. Yeah we gotta the road, yeah we're doing this for free I thought it's all about the money, it's not about the craft Man, we drove from Long Beach, you could help us with gas Well, we'll talk about that later 'cause I wanna finish strong Fine we'll do a little back and forth, you can rap along But make your voice deeper, yeah get the rhythm right Come on, I ca-I can do this, then step into the light 'U.D.'s in the place, watch out, you'll get smacked T.J. Miller! Who're you? I'm not a haaaaaaah U.D. What's a 'haaaah? Man, you told me this guy was d**e. Let's just do this last chorus and leave.. From coast to coast, y'all, all over the map (Why was there a whistle? - Oh is that part of the beat?) It's not about the money, it's all about the craft They think it's so easy, but they don't know the half Let's take it to the stage, man you only make me laugh (Okay.. can we go back and do it again?) You only make me laugh <repeated> T.J. Make me laugh! Yeah... Is there any way we could do another take? ...No? So you're just.. you're just gonna go to the end of the song? We're just finishing the song? Wasn't happy, with the thing that I did I wasn't very happy with the thing that I did I'd like another shot with the thing that I did Laugh-laughin' at ya. Woo! Hurrah! Goodnight. Bye! UD:That's it! Is there any way I can do it one more time? I don't know why... I.. The song just ends.. This is my record, and I don't get to decide... U.D. You know what, T.J. Um, you know, I'm used to working with professionals And what you did, to this beat that I made...It's a bunch of bologna, man, and you know, I just need to be alone right now for a second I'm- I need a drink and a hotel room T.J. Could we try my part again- look they're clearly walking out. Of the other booth. Or- is it dinner? Are you getting dinner.. U.D. Hey, call me, man. Good luck with the project! T.J. Oh tha- Thanks for being on the record! -
