[03:42.00]The Legend of Rip Venice - Kelley James
[03:42.00]
[Chorus]
[03:42.00]He's been smoking all day
[03:42.00]Video games
[03:42.00]Checking the waves
[03:42.00]Cuz he wanted to
[03:42.00]Wakes up late when he likes
[03:42.00]Tequila and sprite
[03:42.00]Girls stay the night
[03:42.00]Cuz they wanted to
[03:42.00]Some days I wish I could live like him
[03:42.00]Some days I wish I never got out of bed
[03:42.00]Cuz I wanted to
[03:42.00]His mode
[03:42.00]His call
[03:42.00]Everybody wants to get it all
[03:42.00]Making life decisions off
[03:42.00]Projections from their ma and pa
[03:42.00]Not him
[03:42.00]That's rip
[03:42.00]Maybe you should make that trip
[03:42.00]Venice California is just waiting
[03:42.00]For you to take a sip
[03:42.00]He's everything you want to be
[03:42.00]But don't admit to friends
[03:42.00]He's everything you think about
[03:42.00]When you've come to the end
[03:42.00]With all the
[03:42.00]Bullshit that they always
[03:42.00]Try to send, do you ever think about
[03:42.00]Getting out, we don't get to do this life again
[03:42.00]All the shirts he wears were free
[03:42.00]Half of those don't have sleeves
[03:42.00]Half the reason he believes
[03:42.00]In his path so peacefully
[03:42.00]For a quarter century
[03:42.00]He was told he must achieve
[03:42.00]A certain place financially
[03:42.00]So the people across the street
[03:42.00]Could look at his family
[03:42.00]At *****tail parties while they eat
[03:42.00]And sip Grand Cru Chablis
[03:42.00]And say oooh they raised a chief
[03:42.00]But the Indian left the tribe
[03:42.00]Found his own horse to ride
[03:42.00]To California's western side
[03:42.00]With a heart filled with pride
[03:42.00]And a soul, as his guide
[03:42.00]His arms, open wide
[03:42.00]Good morning everybody
[03:42.00]The prince of Venice has arrived
