about

"A song inspired by a trip my kids took to "BB's" (grandmaw's) and intended to shame kids of all ages who have so much wisdom that they are able to see with precisions all the problems and faults of others thus missing out on the blessings of today"

lyrics

It’s a special weekend, kids going to BB’s
Junk food and watching lots of movies
We pack up their bags, there is knock at the door
“BB is hear yo it’s time to go!”

Kids go nuts at as she steps in the door
At home it’s “a little” but at BB’s it’s “more!”
So away to BB’s they all roll in the van
The rest of the story we got second hand

Apparently, right a way Beau threw a fit
Couldn’t comprehend the fun he’s about to get
Didn’t bother BB one bit, and her grandma ways
Looked over her shoulder and spoke her phrase:

Chorus
Hush now we gonna have a good time here (x4)

Kids know at BB’s the party gonna start
But first BB swings by Walmart
They all scream “yay!” except Neva cries “no!”
She doesn't realize she gets presents when she go!

Neva just wants to go to BB’s and watch a movie
Can’t understand what BB is doing
Kendy try’s to help her (it’ll be fun), but she don’t succeed
BB and her magical words is all she need (she say)

Chorus
Hush now we gonna have a good time here (x4)

At BB’s house it’s everything they’d dream
Mac and Cheese for dinner with a bowl of ice cream
Nintendo 64, scary stories at night
Splishy splash in the hot tub with neon lights

But then a fight breaks out between Emma and Guy
An argument about who gets the last piece of pie
But why? Two other whole pies on the counter
Logic and reason don’t seem to matter

BB steps in like she been doing for years
Set’s both kids on her lap to make herself clear
Looks em in the eyes, speaks these words in the ears
“Hush now we gonna have a good time here”

Chorus
Hush now we gonna have a good time here (x4)

(It’s my party… you can’t cry… even if you want to!)

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
