Down to Earth Page #4
- Where's the nearest subway? | - You wanna take the car?
What's up, Snoop?
With so much drama | in the L-B-C
It's kinda hard | bein' Snoop D-O-double-G, but I
Keep comin' up with funky-ass | sh*t like every single day
- Rollin' down the street | - What's up, museum?
Sippin' on gin and juice | Laid back
With my mind on my money | and my money on my mind
- Rollin' down the street | - Hello. Yeah!
- Sippin' on gin and juice | - Here it comes!
With my mind on my money | and my money on my mind
- Rollin' down the street | - Put up your "W."
Sippin' on gin and juice | Laidback
With my mind on my money | And my money on my mind
Now that I got me | Some Seagram's gin
Everybody got they cups | but they ain't chipped in
Now, this types of sh*t | Happens all the time
You've gotta get yours | But, fool, I gotta get mine
Everything is fine | When you're listenin' to the D-O-G
I got the cultivatin' music | that be captivatin' he who listens
Are you ready for more comedy?
Our next act-you've seen him on TV. | You've read about him in the paper.
He just won a spot on | the last night of the Apollo.
Give it up for Joe Guy!
What's up, brother? Whoo!
Look at this place. | It lookin' fine, boy!
Got some fine-lookin' sisters | in the h-h-house. Except for you, girl.
You sure this is such a great idea?
This place does seem a little-
A little what?
It's a little dark in here.
Relax.
These are my people.
And there is no more America. | There's no more little towns.
No, no, no. | You know what all it is?
Malls. | The whole country is malls.
And every town's got two malls. | Every town's got two malls.
That's right. | They got the white mall...
and the mall white people | used to go to.
That's right. 'Cause there | ain't nothin' in the black mall.
They don't got nothin' in the black mall | but sneakers and baby clothes.
I guess that's all we doin'- | runnin' and screwin'.
And white people will abandon a mall. | That's right.
White people like their black | the same way they like their seasoning-
just a dash.
You go to a white mall, | it's all nice.
Everything. The stores are all nice. | You got personal shoppers.
You go to a black mall and people say, | "Can I help you with the cheap sh*t?"
White people get some money, | keep it. Stay rich.
Kids get rich. | Black people get some money,
it's the countdown to | "When this brother gonna go broke?"
That's right.
White people die and leave a will. | Brother die and leave a bill.
I'm fine. I'm fine. Fine.
Hi, it's Sontee.
Leave me a message. | I'll call you back.
Hey, Sontee. | Charles Wellington here.
The bastard. | Remember me? Anyway,
it was cool havin' you | break into my house the other day,
and I was just wonderin' if we can | get together and get somethin' to eat.
You know, catch a movie or somethin'.
Hey, Sontee. Charles Wellington here.
Hope you like the flowers.
Allright. Give me a call.
Hey, Sontee. Charles Wellington again.
You haven't called me. | I was just wonderin'...
if we can get together and catch | a movie, maybe a play, somethin'.
Are you there?
Are you screening this call?
Okay, I guess you're not there.
Hey, Sontee.
Charles Wellington. | Are you there?
I know you're there!
Pick up the phone! | I know you're there!
Hey, just playin'. | Just playin'.
All right. | Give me a call, okay?
Good mornin'. Did you know | your answering machine is broken?
No, it's not broken, | but it is full.
- What are you doin' here? | - I was just in the neighborhood.
Oh, you were in Brooklyn.
What were you doin', | shuttin' down some old folks home?
Don't be so mean. | I thought maybe we could...
get in the Rolls | and go by the Four Seasons,
have a little brunch, | discuss this whole hospital thing.
Oh, so you're trying to impress me | with the car and the money.
Look, I really don't care | what you have, okay?
Ifyou want to impress me, | do it at the board meeting on Monday.
I thought maybe we could | spend some time together.
Why don't you spend a little time and do | something positive with your money?
That was brutal.
You got a nice touch | with the ladies.
I can't get a girl in this body, | and I definitely can't get any laughs.
- Have you found me anything yet? | - I'm workin' on it.
I was just in Havana. | You want one?
No, I don't want one. What I want | from you is a body that works.
I want a body, | and I want it now!
What, are you gettin' tough with me? | I'm a friggin' angel.
You don't want to be in heaven, | you don't like it here.
- There is a third option, you know. | - I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. | I just need a body.
You know what? There's a big | rap concert in the Bronx tonight.
Somebody's gonna die.
Go to the rap concert.
It's over between you and me.
- I can't do this anymore. | - Let's just get out of here.
We could take the plane. We could | go someplace he'll never find us.
Chechnya, East Timor. | It'll be fun.
No, I can't.
I mean, after all, | he is my husband,
and I love him.
And I'm gonna do whatever | I can to get him back.
That's sweet, Winston,
but it's too late.
We cannot allow Wellco to take over!
I just think | this is an extremely bad time...
to be making | a personal appearance.
I've been lookin' into | this hospital thing,
and I think | Sontee Jenkins had a point-
Let's just handle this | the usual way, okay?
You do the strong, silent thing. | I'll field all the questions.
I'm the velvet glove. You're | the iron fist. I won't let you down.
- We can't have that. | - No!
There's one man that's responsible | for all this- Charles Wellington.
You're a bad man!
Get outta here!
Leave our hospital alone!
- Scumbag! | - White oppressor!
Mr. Wellington, now that you own | Brooklyn Community Hospital,
are you gonna be sending those | without health insurance...
to public facilities | outside their own community?
- Yeah, a**hole! | - Mr. Wellington doesn't have time...
to answer any questions | right now.
Let me address that. | I don't care what you got.
Cancer, rickets, polio, | swine flu, the clap, dandruff-
- What else you got? | - Lyme disease.
Lyme disease, lemon disease. | It don't matter. We'll take you.
Liar!
- Won't take you. | - Mr. Wellington, is the-
Thank you. Thank you all.
Well, here they are, | Mr. Wellington,
the faces that you were | too much of a coward to confront.
So what do you | have to say to them?
Hey, what's up, Wheelie?
Crutchie Crutch, | how you doin', man?
Hey, Big I.V. Save me a sip. | I want a sip, now.
I know what's wrong with you.
Your breath is destroying | the environment.
Why don't you tell them that | you don't care about them?
While you're at it, how come you locked | the staff and press out of this meeting?
You know what? | I must've been out of my mind.
Was I takin' ecstasy that day?
We goin' in there. | Sklar, grab a stretcher.
- We're goin' in. Everybody. | - Allright!
