Lyrics:
Long legged Larry was a frog at the pond. Jump so high might miss him while he gone. Jump over anything, even King Kong. Jumping Jack Flash was his favorite song. Now once upon a time there was a cat in a tree, chased a squirrel up, been stuck since 3. The fireman came, said “It's too high for me!”.  How's that cat gonna ever get free?! Young Jack Turner was a staple on the block.  Said he knew about a frog with an XL hop. The neighbors started laughing, but Jackie wouldn't stop. Ran off, came back, guess who he got? Well it was Long Legged Larry - didn't open his mouth.  Like a rocket to the moon through a cumulus cloud. Touch down safe, lay the scaredy-cat on the ground.  If you listen real close you can still hear the crowd...

Go Larry, Go Larry, Go Go Go Larry 
Go Larry, Go Larry, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go

Larry doesn't care.  Jump so high grow a beard in the air.  Jump over anything, even Times Square, yelling “Long Legged Larry for mayor!,  Here! Here!” Now once upon a time there was a princess in a cell, in the tower of a castle, through a forest on a hill.  Half the men that ever sought her out had fallen ill.  All the men that ever tried to climb the wall had fell. Handful gather at the base of the place.  Each claim way braver than the bravest you've faced.  Bunch of dingbats yapping about saving the day.  But wait, a silhouetted amphibian face in haze…Well It was Long Legged Larry on the back of a steed.  Leapt up yelling "Jordan!” Kiss the girl on the cheek.  Touch down safe, show the lady back to her peeps.  If you listen real close you can still hear the streets…

Go Larry, Go Larry, Go Go Go Larry 
Go Larry, Go Larry, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go

Larry's on the case. Jump so high pluck a star out of space.  Jump over anything, even Salt Lake. Jump into the mosh pit, jump out of a cake. Now once upon a time there was a circus in town. Some went for the cotton candy, some for the clowns, but the high wire act was the most profound, had a poodle on a unicycle, rose in her mouth. 10 o'clock show get the poodle in position.  10 seconds in the unicycle starts tipping.  Now the poodle barely clinging to the wire by her mittens, but what the heck is that thing in the distance? Ribbit! Long Legged Larry, a sight for sore eyes.  Known to give a dog a ride seconds after he arrives. Touch down safe, give her some kibbles and rawhide. If you listen real close, you can still hear the vibe…

Go Larry, Go Larry, Go Go Go Larry 
Go Larry, Go Larry, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go

If you've been around long enough, then you've probably helped someone else in their time of need.  In most instances, the help you give allows them to bounce back from adversity as a much stronger version of themselves.  However, there are times when helping someone seems to do more harm than good.  In this episode of the most infamous podcast on planet earth, we take a deep dive into the ways we can make sure that our help is actually helping and not hurting or enabling someone.

SOME BODY

Flip the coin. Decide your fate.
One side for love. One side for hate.

We're all born the same, and maybe all too soon.
Do you face famine, or feed from the silver spoon?
Worlds apart, between so advanced.
Where's the justice of this being down to chance.

We'll sing a song, they'll drop a bomb.
It's not your choice where you belong.
Shift the blame, conceal the shame.
Enforced mandate to contain.

We are all one and from the same giant sphere.
Ours waters are shallow but drown us in fear.
The desperate cries we choose not to hear,
and bridges we burn are lives that we seer.

Life of luxury, a safety net for the great.
Of life of struggle, man-made desolate.
A flip of a coin laid out your own fate.
One side for love, one side for hate.

Up the gain, do you feel the pain? This is no joke, this is no game.
Turn your back and tighten the reign.
Up the pain, did you find the vain? This is no joke, it's all the same.
Steal the coin and hide the shame.

If looks could kill, who'd be a sinner?
A stare of death, an instant killer.
You feed on yourself like a virus.
Feeding your ego whilst all else is dying.

Calling the shots you crave.
In a land of high horses, no morals you pave.
Give up the pride you save, it's no use to you when your dead in your grave.

Call off the shots that you crave.
You've no morals to save.
Now walk on the path that you've paved.
Your sense of importance in self is depraved.

Flip The Coin

Although we are both MCs, we are also avid beat-makers.  And as beat-makers we have both been in our fair share of record stores hunting for the dopest records to use in our beat-making process.   In this episode, we're talking about record shopping or "diggin in the crates" as they say, giving 8 tips on how to get better at it.  Even though this conversation is for beginners, it should still be relevant for the experienced crate-digger.  Let's go!

Tantrick Ape decided to make electronic music due to the inability to actually play real instruments. This is proof.
