The Lyrics

Oh yeah, I’m smelling something—
I think you understand.
Now I’ve got that something:
A warrant to hold grams.
My haunt is Oaksterdam,
I haul to Oaksterdam.

When police say to me:
“What have you got there, man?”
To police, I say: “See:
Warrant, no tokster ban!”
My haunt is Oaksterdam,
I’m off to Oaksterdam.

They cannot touch me,
It is the law to abide.
And so they’re greeting
Me and then
Off they ride. . .

Those crews have got something
To sell that isn’t banned
If you’ve got that something:
A warrant to hold grams.
My haunt is Oaksterdam,
I haul to Oaksterdam.

And when I’ve got weed,
I feel happy inside.
It bucks that feeling
Of knife stuck through my hide,
in my side,
And then pried.

I rue at that stuck-in sensation—it ain’t grand;
Don’t rue when I’m puffin’
In vaunted Oaksterdam.
My haunt is Oaksterdam. . . .

A "High"ly amusing parody!

Hadn't heard about that, so I just Wiki'd it. LOL that they named the place after the stoner capital of the world. UK stoners love Amsterdam because it's the nearest city with legal "coffee bars". Couldn't be bothered to read the whole Wiki page, so didn't find out whether it's "real" weed or just the non-THC medicinal kind that's legal in Oakland.

Your words are a joy to be spoken
We know often times you be jokin'
Though thoughts cross my mind
On some JB rhymes
"My gosh what has this man been smokin'?"
;-)
