Witness to History Lyricsby . From Brooklyn The Musical Witness to History by STREETSINGER Yeah, they say if you were in attendance that night, then you, my friend, were a witness to history. Ah, but with a touch of mystery. You see, before her final bow, Brooklyn would always sing the "unfinished lullaby" BROOKLYN La la la la, la la, la la la la, La la la... STREETSINGER ...though she would never sing the words. Y'see, if you remember, only one other person knew the words and she longed to hear his voice sing them back to her. So Brooklyn would us her new found fame in America to call for her father. Ah, but fame in the land of the pilgrim's pride ain't no fairy tale. You see, a lot of people want it, few get it, and once you got it, you ain't gonna ever give it up. Oh, and people let me tell you, nobody knew that better than the Brooklyn born and bred Ms. Paradice! PARADICE Now this may come as quite a little shock to you all, but I did'nt know me Daddy either. STREETSINGER A force of nature, a natural born world shaker. Born on Mean Street right across from Ugly Road, honed on hustle, raised on riot. Educated in the Red Hook projects, got her Ph.D. in survival, and would to whatever it takes to remain America's diva of the decade. Oh, and people, let me tell you, don'tchu ever musspell her name, that's P.a.r.a... PARADICE ...d.i.c.e 'cause I was born on with nothin' but a pair-a-dice around my neck. And from that pair-a-dice, I built me a paradise. And no one... [Thanks to angeliner@msn.com for lyrics]
