Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangster Lyrics

Everyone has a favorite scene from cult classic "Office Space", and yours is the opening scene -- where the unfortunately-named Michael Bolton is singing "Damn It Feels Good to be a Gangsta" lyrics during his hellish commute to Initech. Who doesn't identify with that? Being put in the position of having to spend your days trapped in a tiny, airless cubicle is enough to make anyone want to start spewing "Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta" lyrics. The problem is, no matter how big a fan you are of the late great Geto Boys, it's kind of hard to come off as, well, hard when you don't even know "Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta" lyrics.

In case you need reminding, the Geto Boys, which consisted of Scarface, Bushwick Bill and Willie D., formed in Houston in the late-80's and released their self-titled debut to critical, well, outrage in 1990. If you think that the "Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta" lyrics are questionable, you should hear "Mind of a Lunatic", in which they rap about slitting a girl's throat during sex. And "Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta"'s lyrics ain't got nothing on Scarface's song about a freaky girl happily riding him when a rival busted in the door and blew off her head with a shotgun. Damn, son.

But you probably didn't need to know all that -- you just want to be able to impress your friends by singing along with Michael Bolton as your favorite cubicle hero-flick starts up. That's cool, but now you have some Geto Boys trivia, too; which is even more impressive than just some random "Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta lyrics". 

Here are those lyrics (to the first 3 verses), by the way:

Verse 1. Damn it feels good to be a gangsta  A real gangsta-ass nigga plays his cards right  A real gangsta-ass nigga never runs his fuckin mouth  'cause real gangsta-ass niggas don't start fights  And niggas always gotta high cap  Showin' all his boys how he shot em  But real gangsta-ass niggas don't flex nuts  'cause real gangsta-ass niggas know they got em  And everythings cool in the mind of a gangsta  'cause gangsta-ass niggas think deep  Up three-sixty-five a year 24/7  'cause real gangsta ass niggas don't sleep  And all I gotta say to you  Wannabe, gonnabe, cocksuckin', pussy-eatin' prankstas  'cause when the fry dies down what the fuck you gonna do  Damn it feels good to be a gangsta 

Verse 2. Damn it feels good to be a gangsta  Feedin' the poor and hepin out wit they bills  Although I was born in jamaica  Now I'm in the us makin' deals  Damn it feels good to be a gangsta  I mean one that you don't really know  Ridin' around town in a drop-top benz  Hittin' switches in my black six-fo'  Now gangsta-ass niggas come in all shapes and colors  Some got killed in the past  But this gangtsa here is a smart one  Started living for the lord and I'll last  Now all I gotta say to you  Wannabe, gonnabe, pussy-eatin' cocksuckin' prankstas  When the shit jumps off what the fuck you gonna do  Damn it feels good to be a gangsta 

Verse 3. Damn it feels good to be a gangsta  A real gangta-ass nigga knows the play  Real gangsta-ass niggas get the flyest of the bitches  Ask that gangsta-ass nigga little jake  Now bitches look at gangsta-ass niggas like a stop sign  And play the role of little miss sweet  But catch the bitch all alone get the digit take her out  And then dump-hittin' the ass with the meat  'cause gangsta-ass niggas be the gang playas  And everythings quiet in the clique  A gangsta-ass nigga pulls the trigger  And his partners in the posse ain't tellin' off shit  Real gangsta-ass niggas don't talk much  All ya hear is the black from the gun blast  And real gangsta-ass niggas don't run for shit  'cause real gangsta-ass niggas can't run fast  Now when you in the free world talkin' shit do the shit  Hit the pen and let the mothafuckas shank ya.
