Not-so-Fresh Prince

Come and listen to my story about how
The Oscars got turned upside down
I’d like to tell you a story, sit right there
About how I slapped Chris Rock to you-know-where
 
In a Bel Air mansion I was TV raised
With Uncle Phil and Aunt Vivian spent most of my days
Goofing on Carlton, making 'em all laugh
And Geoffrey the butler was a stitch and a half
 
When the series was over I went off to Hollywood
Started making movies and the times were good!
My films were big hits and I made lots of money
People paid to see me act strong, tough, and funny
 
I was nominated for an Oscar, the acting prize
And at the ceremony were all the big guys
Everything was good and the place was rockin’
That is, until a comedian started mockin’
 
My wife, for all the hair that she was losing
So I got up to smack him for the words he was using
When I won the big award just a few minutes later
I tried to give a speech to explain I’m not a hater
 
The Academy said that they would start a review
And everybody sees me in a light that’s new
But I’m still a big star and I’ve got the award
With the statue of a golden man with his sword
