[Jay-Z Talking]

Thank you, thank you very much

For comin' out this evening

[Verse 1]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

You're far too kind

Hold you're applause

This is your song not mines

Thank you, thank you, thank you

Please hold your applause

For I just applied logic Keys keys open doors

Now I'm balcony, Opera, Black Tux, Binocula

Black luxe, Stop it I shouldn't be so popular

Name keep poppin' up Face keep poppin' up

On the tube I'm just watchin' Pacquaio box 'em up

How would I know HBO would get a shot of us

Sitting so close that we almost got snot on us

Please don't bow in my presence How am I a Legend?

I just got 10 #1 albums Maybe now 11

More hits than a Now! 11

That is no reason to treat me like I'm somehow from outta heaven

Heaven knows that I've made my mistakes

Thank God, what a guy as I say my grace

Who woulda thought by making birds migrate

For the winter I be fly all summer Might I say

[Hook]

Thank you, Thank you, thank you You're far too kind

Hold your applause This is your song not mines

Thank you, Thank you, thank you You're far too kind

Do me a favor, don't do me no favors I'll handle mines

[Verse 2]

Hovi Baby

We are really high, really high tonight

We tip the waiter a hundred dollars

To keep the ice cold, alright?

We the last guys to keep the Wise guys code alive

If I can't live by my word Then I'd much rather die

No no don't thank me, This is just how my suit is stitched

I'm cut from a different cloth, I'm just who the shoe fits

For the Color Of Money like a Tom Cruise flick

'Cept I put 8-balls in corners without using pool sticks

Beautiful music when champagne flutes click

Beautiful women sippin' throught rouge lips

Dangers approaches We're like wait who's this?

Let us save you some trouble son

What size suit you is?

This way after the Ruger shoots through a few clips

You can lay in your casket just as you is

We appreciate the target practices

We'll be sure to send flower baskets kid

[Repeat Hook]

[Verse 3]

I was gonna kill a couple rappers

But they did it to themselves

I was gon' do it with the flow

But they did it with their sales

I was gon' 9/11 'em, but they didn't need the help

And they did a good job them boys is talented as hell

Cuz not only did they brick they put a building up as well

They ran a plane into that building and when that building fell

Ran to the crash site with no masks and inhaled

Toxins deep inside their lungs until both of them was filled

Blew a cloud out like a L into a jar then took a smell

Cuz they heard that second hand smoke kills

Niggas thought they was ill found out they was...ILL

And it's like you knew exactly how I wanted you to feel

[Hook]

[Jay-Z]

We are really high, really high tonight

Lucky Lefty, kiss the wife tonight for me
