I’m A Hustler (Interlude) Lyrics

[Intro]
Life of a
Life of a, (Ooh!)
Life of a hustler

[Song: Jorma Taccone & Andy Samberg/Akiva Scahaffer]
Well I'm a hustler, (hustler)
That's just what I do. (Ooh!)
I'm always hustling on the avenue (avenue)
I can sell water to a whale (water to a whale)
Or even a shell to a snail

I'm a hustler, (life of a hustler)
That's me
I've been this way since I came out my mama's puss (puss)
I'm always thinking of a scheme (Ooh)
I'm good at what I do
And I know a thing or two about hustling

You have to be born with a certain swag
A je ne sais quoi, that makes hustling your bag
Hey! At eight years old, I got my hood pass
Then at nine, I got my first piece of ass (Hey!), (ass)

Ice to an Eskimo, spaghetti to a wop (wop)
I know that sounds racist, it's just how I talk (ah senór?)
In the crap game, I am the number one (number one)
I wouldn't mess around, you'll get your money taken
(Jumbled)
Never talk on the phone, that’s rule number one
I'll punch you in the spine
So many rhymes on my brain, sometimes I feel insane
I’m in the kitchen, cooking up crack
(Laughing) So anyway, that’s probably uncool, right?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

An interlude from The Wack Album.

Jorma sings stereotypical hustler lines in a weird, high pitched voice. The joke is that he clearly doesn’t sound like someone who would actually be doing these things.
