heres the rest i gotta go to work
Genuine is real, a face card is a hundred dollar bill
A very hard, long stare is a grill
If you sneakin’ to go see a girl, that mean you creepin’
Smilin’ is cheesin’, bleedin’ is leakin’
Beggin is bummin, if you nuttin you comin
Takin’ orders is sunnin’, an ounce of coke is a onion
A hotel’s a telly, a cell phone’s a celly
Jealous is jelly, your food box is your belly
To guerrilla mean to use physical force





You will always be in my heart Nantucket

a few updates that list,

"na meeen" is now "figga deal me,"

at least uptown and in the lower east side,

hot girl is no longer "Dime," now its"Buffer"

key of blow went from "pie" to "bird"

"fly" is now back to "fresh" which it used to be in the late 80's

and my new favorite one is the term for any criminal drug dealer or shady person of latino descent
"Gwalla Gwalla's,"

a few more updates

New clothes-Fresh Tags

Cops are now "D's" not "jakes"

you forgot a very important work after "Duece" which is UGLY, a "Duece is a honey thats Ugly," as quoted from the song

$100 bill from face card to "C" as in "oh what, you gotta a C, Brooklyn Style baby, brooklyn style"

and anything that happens in the middle east or Iraq, Israel or whatever in the news is now referred to as happenning "over in SAN-NIGGASTAN somewhere," or if someone has a friend in the army i;ve heard it used like "yeah, my bro's over there in SAN-NIGGASTAN," which is really offensive and really really funny,

if i could find a way to combine gwalla gwalla and san-niggastan in the same sentence i might be able to die a happy man.
