Herbs, Good Hygiene and Socks - Nathaniel Merriweather, Lovage, Afrika Bambaataa

I don’t dig a lot of the establishment

Well, your ideas and values

They may work for you but

They don’t all work for me

As far as I’m concerned

Some are with it

And well some aren’t

Hmm, that’s a hard one to say

It’s hard to say, I’d say

Well wash your ass every day

Wash your whole body every day

And brush your breath at least 2 or 3 times a day

With your teeth, and then you know, wash the face

Do any of these things prevent venereal disease, besides the rubbers?

Carry some of your herbal or salt or pepper around in your pocket

Stuff, it opens up in your pocket and gets mixed up with your lint cotton

Or mess with the flavour cause when you take the herb and put it in your mouth

Then you gonna be eatin' somethin' then you got little strings of lint pullin'

on your teeth

So you just take it out and use the string for flossin'

That’s… that’s far out

What do you feel is the best way to

To keep from getting a, a chick pregnant?

I mean…, what do you do?

Well, you need different pairs of socks

You know, some times you need the coloured socks

That’s if you’re gonna wear one pair of socks to hide your dirt

Then every, every, every other couple of days I mean, you wear the white sock

You can wear them probably 1 or 2 days

Until you try to walk aroun' an' they get caught in the carpet

Then the dirt used up from the carpet gets up into your sock

Then you get the little black spots on the side

Or you can go and get, you know, the different types

There’s other types of socks that’s made for shoes

But then they get funky and your feet start sweatin' and stuff

Or you can get sweat socks that grab the sweat so they won’t be funking

And you get the powder into put it in so you won’t get the funk or the funky

feet

Or that little feet and the stink is you have to be the funk

Cuz when you die you go back to the funk

And if you got sock funk you got to be funky cause it stinkin

Or something ran up in your ass and just died
