[Verse 1: Chanting New Orleans female MC, loud and rowdy, every line on the kick] Eight months now and it's still in the street Big enough to swallow a car and a seat Called the city on Monday, they put me on hold Called back in July and the music got old Neighbors losing hubcaps, Miss Pearl lost a shoe Mailman went around it like he's paddling through So I put out a cone and I painted it pink Said if they won't fix it, we'll party at the brink [Chorus: Chanting New Orleans female MC, shouted, full chest] Hole in the road and we throwing it down Biggest dance floor in the whole of the town City won't come, so we bring the sound Hole in the road and we throwing it down [Verse 2: Chanting New Orleans female MC, chanting call-outs, building] Saturday morning I'm hauling the pot Crawfish and corn and the water real hot Kiddie pool sitting in the middle of the crack Grandma in a lawn chair with her feet on the back Uncle on the grill and the cousins on the curb Cards on the porch and the block in a swerve Speakers on the stoop and they rattle the glass Whole street shaking like the pothole got bass [Chorus: Chanting New Orleans female MC, shouted, full chest] Hole in the road and we throwing it down Biggest dance floor in the whole of the town City won't come, so we bring the sound Hole in the road and we throwing it down [Bridge: Chanting New Orleans female MC, wheel drop, a shiny black car rolls up slow, the beat cuts on one loud clunk, then the bass slams back] Here come a black car with a flag on the front Window rolling down for the mayor's little stunt He said what's the noise, I said look to the right Front wheel went in and the bumper said goodnight [Verse 3: Chanting New Orleans female MC, laughing, full force] Mayor in the hole with his shoes in the mud Crawfish in his lap and his suit full of crud Block went quiet and then Pearl said hey Now you know how it feels every single day He climbed out the pit with a cop holding his arm Said he'd have it fixed by the morning alarm Six in the morning, I'm still in my gown Road crew on the block and the asphalt down [Chorus: Chanting New Orleans female MC, shouted, full chest] Hole in the road and we throwing it down Biggest dance floor in the whole of the town City won't come, so we bring the sound Hole in the road and we throwing it down [Outro: Chanting New Orleans female MC, chanting, the drums ring out] Fixed it overnight All it took was a party Next one on your street [End]
