4. Grand Marquis
Words and Music by Inside Joke
Additional Vocals by Kevin Schuer

Several yeas ago was doing some car shopping
Not very pumped about the cash that I be dropping
When baby's momma got a call
"How about you buy my car?" it was her Grandpa!
Now before I proceed I think you got to understand
Buying a sweet ride, was The Joke's plan
So when the offer came, I said "no way"
But then he made an offer we couldn't turn away
So here I am the owner of Mercury
I don't believe this is what Allan Jackson mean
Cuz I'm floating down the road, homies laughing at me
With an airbrushed license plate of his doxin "Barnie"
Yeah, "Are them chrome rims? Everybody asking
Shoot I wish, my rims are made of plastic
Now I truly be the J O K E
The for the foreseeable near future i'll be rolling in a Grand Marquis
Chorus:
He's Got a Mercury Grand Marquis (repeat)
M-e-r-c-u-r-y
We ain't talking about the planet, we're talking about my ride
And that's why, I'm getting love that is out of this world
From all the old ladies with the silver curls (holla!)
Yeah, I am the youngest man owning a Mercury
Big, long, and red: it's a Grand Marquis
And if you think I'm joking wait and see
Check the age of other owners and you'll believe
That there ain't no young folk driving these
Unless they rolling undercover for the state police
In fact, that's who most think we are
People see me coming and they pull over their car
All worried that they just caught for speeding
It''s true what they say, looks can be deceiving
Because I ain't the "po po" and never will be
I just happen to get hook up on a Mercury Grand Marquis
Chorus:
Several years into it, Man it's turned out good
Nice roomy ride, V8 under the hood
Best of all I can roll six deep
Who would have known the back seat fits three car seats!
Little G be saying, "Daddy i love this ride
I got Emma on the right and Kendy to my side"
Shoot it ain't called "Grand" for nothing
Bench seat in front allowing for some loving
Ha ha, yeah! You know the trunk is big
If the man takes our house in the trunk we could live
And I just finished getting it all jacked up
Curb finders on the side for when I back up
Four flat screens rollin up onto the scene
Now if there be laughing now its coming from me
"How much will take for it? "Man please
This be Inside Joke's Grand Marquis

From Lexington, KY, Inside Joke takes rap music back to the days when it was fun, made you dance, and actually rhymed! At the same time, Inside Joke brings a new school vibe, spirituality at times, and a little country grammar to boot! ... more
