(Who?)JANE the chickenhead radio host Who be yappin&#039; &#039;bout beef between east and west coastHe said &quot;;This one&#039;s a bullet, you got ta give it run!&quot;;The chicken said &quot;;Thanks.&quot;; and spanked it #1He went outside, was gettin&#039; props all overThen he dipped into his ride, the 4-point RoverRaced up the block doin&#039; 83Some cats with Hennessey saw him at a R-E-DHe winked his eye like his star status matteredThey rat-a-tat-tatted to make his blood splatter&quot;;You rockin&#039; crazy ice and all you do is cling static
