They call this happy street
we’ve got super happy beat
Every time we make our sound
The motherfucking cops come around
These guys by my side
We’ll be fused until we die
Don’t you fucking question why
Our stories they start in a garage
They always surprise us, it’s one big mirage
We met these bloomers, they really let us be
They showed us a piece of their ancestry
We walked to Walgreens, knifed into a tree
Slept next to the killers teepee
As the ash fell to the ground
I’m so happy for these people I’ve found (x2)
Don’t forget these days
Try to live the Contento Way (x2)
You can always come to the place to be
As long as you tip your hat to Mr. G
If you’re lucky he’ll pour you some tea
And spike it to make you even lower than me
