Lyrics · 8 lines0:02 / 0:12
  1. Fridge light glowing like a stage at night,
  2. your name on the box but the box looked right,
  3. one little bite turned into the tray,
  4. now I'm hiding the fork and I'm walking away,
  5. you're asking around like a cop in the hall,
  6. I'm acting surprised, didn't see it at all,
  7. but the sauce on my shirt is telling on me,
  8. yeah, I ate your leftovers, now you know it was me!

Real example

A normal photo works

This laundry day rap came from one plain photo. A clear face, good light, looking at the camera: that's all it needs.

The lyrics

  1. Shoes laced tight and my collar real clean
  2. Spinning like the dryer in the laundry machine
  3. Socks went missing but I'm still on beat
  4. Fresh out the wash and I'm owning the street
