Biz Markie - I'm A Ugly Nigga (So What)

Hey hey hey, know what I heard?
Beauty`s only skin deep, ugly is to the bone

Back in the days, I`m not gonna lie
They used to say I`m ugly, a hurting guy
They would crack on my lips, and my powder
Saying I look like yuck without the house or ?Wig Howard?
From junior high to high school they thought I was retarded
Just because the way I looked, they said I farted
I was very very sad and you wonder why
Because my looks and my gear wasn`t ultra fly
I wouldn`t even attempt to ask a girl out
Cause she get around her friends and began to shout"
"Guess who asked me out to the movies girlfriend
It was Mark, I told him if the world would end"
But my parents told me beauty`s only skin deep
If that`s true then why do girls think that I`m a creep?
I even joined the football team to get some recognition
But that didn`t spark the key in a girl`s ignition
They said I`m so ugly I give Anican a headache
Aw man, that is the icing on the cake!
So I kick this to all the girls from houses to huts
I don`t care what you think, cause you all are nuts

I`m an ugly nigga, so what?
If you don`t like the way I look, you can kiss my butt
I`m an ugly nigga, so what? So what? Ewwwww [x2]

I`m a tell you story that`s really bugged
About a guy with a Benz and he`s dealing drugs
In the begining before he got his riches
He was so ugly, he gave me the itches
I mean, if you see him, you think I might be kooky
But homeboy looked like, um, God-zooky
I used to crack and joke and say he looked like a star
And everybody laughed when I said "Mon-star"
I can`t laugh now because it`s a new decade
My guzu-friend got the girls and got it made
I guess having jewels, having money, having a vehicle
Makes you sexy, handsome, gorgeous, and adorable
When you`re spending money, giving girls what they want
Behind your back they talk about you say you`re ugly and you front
Why do you go to bed with someone that you don`t like
Just because they got a nice car like Reverend Ike
It would be wrong if he heard what you`re thinking
Thinking that he look like, um, Stinking Jenkins
But let me tell you a secret, he has ESP
And this is what he whispered in my ear to me

I`m an ugly nigga, so what?
Just because I got loot, that`s why you give me the butt?
I`m an ugly nigga, so what? So what? [x2]
Let me tell you how poor I was

Dome to the doo, and doo to the dome
For the dome I go to school and for the doo I use a comb
Now people always ask how are these things known
Cause the dome does the doing for things that are done at home
That`s why I keep a pick in my knappy fro
And for lunch I eat Ragu with my sloppy joe
But at night I be starving, like Messy Marvin
I get cheap and go settle for the White Castle bargain
They offer me a lot in the army
But I`d rather get it second hand from the Salvation Army
Cause times are getting harder than boot camp
Man I`m so poor I need to print my face on a food stamp
So if my hooptie breaks down, I just have to suffer
And tell Minekie "I`m not gonna pay a lot for this muffler!"
So I keep clear thoughts as the weeks run
But even on the beaches, they call me a beach bum
Something ain`t right with me, and that really frightens me
Cause nowadays girls don`t even like to sprighten me
Some say I`m embarassing, but I got some comparison
Like if I was on TV, I would be Oscar Madison
Is there another like me? Only God knows
Man I should even rap in church cause I wear holy clothes
But for now I`m just going to do the strut
And this is what I say to girls from houses to huts

I`m an ugly nigga, so what?
Just because I`m poor, that`s why you won`t give me the butt?
I`m an ugly nigga, so what? So what? [x2]
