Skypager

Lyrics

Do you know the importance of a Skypager?
 Uh, uh, uh, uh (welcome to the Skypager)
 Those who don't believe, see you're laid behind
 Got our sky pagers on all the time
 Hurry up and get yours 'cause I got mine
 Especially if you do shows, they come in fine
 If you're with a G and you're sipping wine
 Eating cacciatore with a twist of lime
 Gotta meet your lover at a quarter to nine
 Joint by the base, then you get your high
 If you get your high, then mines are next
 The "S" in Sky page really stands for sex
 The beeper's going off like Don Trump gets checks
 Keep my bases loaded like the New York Mets
 At times I miss the pager, so you don't get vex
 Having bad days like a voodoo hex
 Conceptually, a pager is so complex
 That I'll be standing by the phone, ready to flex
 ♪
 Welcome, wel-wel-welcome to the new Skypager
 Wel-welcome to the new Skypager
 Welcome to the new Skypager, new Skypager
 Enter the telephone number or other numeric message
 Uh, so funky
 Uh, so funky
 Uh, so funky
 Uh, so funky
 The batteries I use are called Duracell
 They last for three weeks, so they do me well
 Don't be going through no phases, my joint stays on
 If you're in Costa Rica on a sunlit beach
 Your greed for the Phifer, I can be reached
 A number of importance, I just put it on the lock
 You leave code "69", which means you want some-
 People tend to think that a pager's foul
 Well, it kinda is 'cause it makes me scowl
 But it really hurts when you're on the prowl
 Brothers know it hurts when you're on the prowl
 Grabbin' on my joint cause I'm an eager owl
 Get paged by a G or a business pal
 My shit is overflowin', they won't allow
 Another page, so I'll just end this now
 (Message sent, thank you for calling Skypager)
