«I’ve done something new for this fight.
I’ve wrestled with an alligator, I’ve tussled with a whale,
I did handcuff lightning, and threw thunder in jail.I’m bad.
Last week I’ve murdered a rock,
injured a stone and hospitalized a brick.
I’m so mean I make medicine sick.Last night I cut the light off in my bedroom,
hit the switch and was in bed before room was dark.I’m so fast man
I can run through a hurricane and don’t get wet.
When George Foreman meets me he’ll pay his debt.I can drown and drink the water and kill a dead tree,
wait ‚til you see Muhammad Ali.
