Special Occasion - Jackie Onassis

With a silly grin stuck to my chinny chin chin

I’m gonna huff and puff until she’s given in

Rap some air into the sails of my fairy’s tale

Get off the phone, kick the beat, lets begin

My crews all dead shits hooked, looking for the next head trip

Going set to set since the music went electric

Paint the town red make the inner west epic

Gonna do what I can do, so you gon' recognise the set list

The lessons coalesced, and unless I’m mistaken

I’m more or less here to soothe the aching

Just an acorn, eyeing your ears like a plaything

Put me in your chest and we can grow something amazing

I’m making a new start, hell it got too hard

My true heart died when I tried to be like you are

So now I rock a me on the 1, 2, 3

Help the people oscillate, ain’t that something to see?

Yes, this is a special occasion

Everybody with a glass go raise em

This is a toast, goes out to all of those

Who get the party started despite the complications

Yes, this is a special occasion

Everybody in the place go apeshit

This is a toast, goes out to all of those

Who don’t need no reason for celebration

From the old school to the new school

To the cats who reckon they too cool, to the indy rapping hopefuls

Lets make tonight a little more than a nose full

Let me and I’ll chase your pulse all around this oval

And I’m just another local, taking in your social psyche

Slightly sober, armed with my insight and my vocal mic

Wading through the spider webs and drama, it gets harder

Not to raise my eyebrow for how they try and bribe their karma

Neither a saviour nor a martyr, I’m a next door neighbour

Dying to blow the speakers out your CD player

But don’t get it twisted, I’m not that seedy player

Here to grease your ears or make the real disappear

Cause I’m not fly like Dapples Cities

Spend my days blue like a pack of Winnies, coaxing out the rapper in me

But he’s here now to reach around the back and let your hair down

Ain’t gonna leave until your hands are in the air now

Yes, this is a special occasion

Everybody with a glass go raise em

This is a toast, goes out to all of those

Who get the party started despite the complications

Yes, this is a special occasion

Everybody in the place go apeshit

This is a toast, goes out to all of those

Who don’t need no reason for celebration

It goes like bounce bounce, throw your hands up in the house

And if you ain’t that way inclined, why’d you bother coming out?

Cause right now I’m ticking off my wish list

Grab my bowl and mix it, till we all get lifted

So deal with the real, heal, kill the sun

Put your heels on girl tonight’s only just begun

No matter who you are, baby you the one

So put your hands up and do it till its done

Yes, this is a special occasion

Everybody with a glass go raise em

This is a toast, goes out to all of those

Who get the party started despite the complications

Yes, this is a special occasion

Everybody in the place go apeshit

This is a toast, goes out to all of those

Who don’t need no reason for celebration

Its not for me to tell you how to get down

But if it was make some noise, pump your fist flip your frown

Its not for me to tell you how to get down

But if it was make some noise, pump your fist flip your frown

Its not for me to tell you how to get down

But if it was make some noise, pump your fist flip your frown

Its not for me to tell you how to get down

But if it was…
