🎤 "Marionberry, No Crack!" [Intro – Hype Voice] Yo! Step to the mic, it’s time for the fact, Marionberries sweet, but they don’t smoke crack! Washington D.C. had a mayor with a name, But the berry in your jam? Whole different game! [Verse 1] Well it’s the M-A-R, the I-O-N, Berry so fresh you’ll eat it again. It grows in Oregon, black and plump, Put it in a pie, man, that’s the jump! But don’t get it twisted, don’t get it wrong, This fruit don’t party with a pipe or a bong. It’s breakfast, it’s cobbler, it’s jam on toast, Health food hero with the mostest boast! [Chorus – Call & Response] 🎶 “Marionberry, Marionberry, keepin’ it clean!” (It’s a berry, not a scandal on your TV screen!) 🎶 “Marionberry, Marionberry, sweet on the track!” (It’s in your yogurt cup, not a hotel crack!) [Verse 2] Now Mayor Marion Barry, he made the news, Cameras rollin’, late-night crews. But don’t confuse the fruit with the man, One’s on a plate, the other’s on C-SPAN. Your grandma’s pie ain’t contraband, Farmers growin’ berries all across the land. So spread the word, let the people know, It’s antioxidants, baby, not a late-night show! [Chorus – with hype man ad libs] 🎶 “Marionberry, Marionberry, tart and sweet!” (It’s the jam in your fridge, not the crack on the street!) 🎶 “Marionberry, Marionberry, Oregon pride!” (It’s a fruit for your mouth, not a mayor’s wild ride!) [Bridge – Talk-rap breakdown] Don’t smoke it, don’t toke it, don’t light it up, You bake it, you shake it, you blend it in a cup. Put it in a smoothie, stack it in a cake, Marionberry’s clean — let’s set the record straight! [Outro] So next time you hear the name, don’t trip, It’s a juicy lil’ berry, not a scandalous slip. From the farm to the table, from the bush to the rack, Say it with me loud: “This berry ain’t crack!” 🎶 Marionberry, no crack attack! 🎶 🎶 Marionberry, yo, we got your back! 🎶
