[Intro]
Here he comes again!

Hey, quick folks come over and put a coin in the eggplan- uh uh
The jukebox.
The jukebox! The jukebox!
[Instrumental]

[Beat Scratches]
Here he comes again!
We're gonna break it down- down- down- down- down-
A little something like this on the funky side
We gon- get this, y'all
Once again- now- now- now- now- now-
Check 'em out, Check 'em out
Check 'em out, Check 'em out
Once again

Where ever you go!

[Verse: MF DOOM]
Villain get the money like curls
They just trying to get a nut like squirrels, in his mad world
Land of milk and honey with the swirls
Where reckless naked girls get necklaces and pearls
Compliments of the town jeweler
Left back now schooler, trying to sound cooler
On the microphone known as the crown ruler
Never lied to ma when we said we found the moolah
Five-hundred something dollars laying, right there in the street
Huh, now let's try and get something to eat
Then he turned four and started flowing to the poor
That's about when he first started going raw
Kept the 'dro in the drawer
A rhyming klepto who couldn't go up in the store no more
His life is like a folklore legend
Why are you so stiff? You need to smoke more brethren
Instead of trying to riff with the broke war veteran
Spliff made him swore he saw Heaven, he was seven
Yup, you know it, growing up too fast
Showing up to class with Moet in a flask
He ask the teacher if he leave will he pass
His girl is home alone he trying to get the
If you want to sip get a paper water fountain glass
How I'm 'posed to know where your mouth been last?
Hands so fast he can out-spin the Flash
Known to smoke a whole mountain of hash, to the ash
Boom-bash, leave the room with the stash
Assume it's in a smash, DOOM get the cash

[Outro]
Come on
Hmm

Madvillain is the highly praised hip-hop duo of producers and MCs MF DOOM (of N.Y.) and Madlib (of L.A.), signed under Stones Throw Records.

According to a Pitchfork article, the two met after then-manager Egon Alapatt sent some Madlib instrumentals from California to DOOM, who was in Kennesaw, during 2002. Following, they began working on their only (but highly exalted) collaborative album Madvillainy in 2004.

Since then Madvillain has been largely dormant in producing new material, beyond a few Stones Throw compilation tracks and some remixes. Madlib has stated in interview that a second album has been recorded, but the delay ultimately comes down to avoiding a current
