Artist: House of Pain
Album: Eddie Soundtrack
Song: Punch Drunk

You know I rock microphones
Like they got back bones
And I'll roll on your shore like some biscuit dough
Yea you study bitin' styles off the next man's flow
Think your Jackson
But your name ain't Bo
I'm only hittin' chick fine as madeleine stowe
Got a closet in my crib where the hydro-phonic grow
Act like you know
Lee toast the chronic
It ain't the season
The reasons strictly economic
So pour the gin and tonic
Pump the Tony Bennet
If wifey ain't watchin' then I'm runnin' up in it
I'll make ya hot and spicy like some huevos rancheros
Then hit the Knicks game with my man Don Terros
And if the Knicks are winnin'
Then Spike Lee's grinnin'
Next I hit the spot with Stretch Armstrong spinnin'
Sippin wiskeys to my favorite cuts
Watchin' all the earthpieces shake their butts
Some People think I'm nuts cause I act a little funny
But play me soft I'll beat ya down like ya stole money

[Hook]

Throw your hands in the air and shake your caboose
Politicking with your chickens it's time to get loose
It's the wicked Pain inflictor with the MICKEYs deuce deuce...

I see a million motherfuckers goin' out on the bottle
The Heavy-Weight Champion never was a role model
I keep it idle with my B-boy bravado
From downtown Brooklyn
All the way to Colorado
So run play the lotto kid if you feel lucky
I'm not a toy but I'll hunt you down like Chucky
You must be buggin' cause I heard you want to buck me
You must be trippin' cause your women wants to fuck me

[Hook]

Throw your hands in the air and shake your caboose
Politicking with your chickens it's time to get loose
It's the wicked Pain inflictor with the MICKEYs deuce deuce...

It's four for the cores
It goes on behind closed doors
When you go for yours
It matters the most
You like to brag and boast
And drink and make a toast
When you don't come up close
Kid, you be coming up ghost
Plus, you playin' hardclose (?) like your cosa nost
But you girls on my Jimmy
Try to give me pesos
Before you finish, kid that's Spanish for kisses
I'm nuttin' up, cuttin' up
The first man who disses

[Hook]

Throw your hands in the air and shake your caboose
I'm politicking with your chickens It's time to get loose
It's the wicked Pain inflictor with the MICKEYs deuce deuce...

Before you play yourself, kid, put your head in a noose
It's the wicked Pain inflictor..

House of Pain

Everlast was barely of legal drinking age when he released his major label rap debut, Forever Everlasting, as part of Ice-T’s Rhyme Syndicate. Next he teamed with his high school pal Danny “Danny Boy” O'Connor, a hype man and graphic designer, to form the Irish American-centric House Of Pain, backed by Everlast’s longtime DJ, DJ Lethal (who is of Latvian/Russian descent).

“Jump Around” (produced by DJ Muggs) pushed House Of Pain’s debut to multiplatinum status, followed by the crossover rap/rock remix of “Shamrocks & Shenanigans.” After tours with Beastie Boys and Rage Against The Machine, their sophomore album went gold, but the group disbanded by the time their third album dropped.

DJ Lethal joined Limp Bizkit and Everlast went solo, going multiplatinum yet again on the acoustic/rap hybrid, Whitey Ford Sings The Blues. House Of Pain has reformed for festivals and club dates here and there ever since, often performing with Everlast’s backing band.
