MACBETH RAP  
There was a Scottish brother
by the name of Macbeth
He wore a giant helmet
and he had terrible breath

He was loyal, he was good,
he was a thug for his king  
And he never even wondered
what tomorrow would bring

When the Scotts had a turf war
against the Norway gang
He chopped them and he stabbed them
He just  blew them all away

He was out on the moors
just a washing off  the gore
he saw the 3 Wyrd Sisters,  
And said “I want to know some more”
They look weird, they got beards
they got creepy kinds of bodies

The sisters say  - Macbeth you know
this ain't our little hobby
We look into the future and yours looks kind of tight
Hang on you freaky Scotsman
cuz you’re going for a ride

You’re the thane of  Glamis - now don’t you frown,
you'll be the Thane of Cawdor
then You're gunning for the crown

Macbeth wrote a letter and told his wife
That the witches had predicted
that his future was bright
She was happy she was psyched
she was totally down
She wondered how she’d look
when she was wearin’ the crown

King Duncan came to visit
and she made her move
Macbeth you big old dummy
better get in the groove
You’re a wussy, you’re a baby,
your’re a terrible wimp,
Get your daggers -  kill the King -  
and you're my number one pimp.

King Duncan he was murdered
and his sons became afraid
Malcom went to England so
he could  fight another day

Now Macbeth was the King
but he wasn’t really thrilled
He was worried about Banquo
and if  he should be killed.

The witches were just grooving
they  was gettin kind of bored
so Macbeth went back to see them
and he  took his big sword

They were chantin they were cookin
they were beatin on their drums
By the pricking of my  thumbs
something wicked this way comes
double double toil and trouble
fire burn and cauldron bubble
mmmmm love to love ya baby

They said he was invincible
and couldn’t come to harm
he wouldn't get killed
by any man to woman born

He wouldn’t loose a battle
til the woods got up and walked
and he know he was safe
unless Lady M  talked

Now Lady M was going  crazy
cuz her hands she couldn’t clean
All that blood was buggin her
and only made  her scream
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Well Macbeth went into battle -
thinking he was safe
Lady M took the short way down
and landed on her face
AAAAaaaa.  Splat. Ouch.

Now Macbeth lost his mind
when the woods began to move
A thousand bushy soldiers
were marching  to the groove

Malcom went to battle -  
for defeat he was preparin’ him
Malcom not of woman born,
Cuz he was born cesearian

Macbeth you big old dummy
now you totally dead
Who's the  King of Scotland now?
He Just chopped off  yo head
