88-Keys – “Baggage Claim”


    88-Keys:

    Uh, yeah! My name is 88-Keys & that’s the name you’ll see on the manifest on Oceanic Flight 815. We’ve been Lost for a few weeks now. I don’t think anybody’s coming for us. Man… I remember this like it was yesterday; When I lost my bag on day one.

    1st Verse:

    I woke up from a concussion
    With sand on my feet
    No futher discussion
    I’m a son of a beach

    Where’s my briefcase?
    It was in reach
    I gotta drill these people
    Just like a prez before he gets impeached

    Let me go straight to the liar & pack rat
    Scratch that
    Take it to the man
    With the desire for that hatch

    Locke – Don’t give me that
    Philosophical crap
    I know is gonna spew
    From you esophagus track

    Just tell me where my box is
    Before I let everybody know
    You couldn’t use your limbs
    Where your sock is

    Save it!
    I’ll just ask Sawyer
    Now let’s face it
    He’ll say he didn’t take it

    So now I gotta go to Kate
    To sweet talk Sawyer
    Just to get my briefcase
    For a kiss like cheap dates

    Sawyer doesn’t have it
    Nobody said they grabbed it
    Now they’re all acting like
    I’m chasing down a white rabbit like Jack did

    Chorus:

    My bag got lost
    So now I’m looking for it
    My bag wasn’t found
    I got tooken for it – Lost
    Have you see it
    Anywhere around here? – Lost
    Tell me if you see it
    When the ground clears

    I’m not taking orders from Jack
    Like I’m his soldier
    I don’t trust Katie
    As far as my arms could throw her
    Expect the unexpected
    When they do drop bombs so

    2nd Verse:

    Gotta investigate this matter further
    This madam that I never heard of
    Using words
    So absurd to

    Me & everybody else
    Except for Shannon
    Distress calls
    Who got balls like cannon?

    To tell me where my briefcase is
    How ’bout you Michael?
    You know us brothers gotta
    Stick together

    I tried to play the race card
    But my plan faultered
    The only one he’s cares about
    His lil’ man Walter

    That’s the kid
    Who could
    Make reality
    Alter

    I ain’t messing with him
    So I slid
    Back to Shannon
    Just to see if I could find Sayid

    And he’s over there
    Talking to Boone
    Let me see if I could get closer
    And get the scoop like a spoon

    I heard him say,
    “Stay the Hell away from my sister!”
    Mr. Overprotective brother
    Not only does he lover her but he used to kiss her… Under the covers

    Chorus:

    My bag got lost
    So now I’m looking for it
    My bag wasn’t found
    I got tooken for it – Lost
    Have you see it
    Anywhere around here? – Lost
    Tell me if you see it
    When the ground clears

    I’m not taking orders from Jack
    Like I’m his soldier
    I don’t trust Katie
    As far as my arms could throw her
    Expect the unexpected
    When they do drop bombs so

    3rd Verse:

    Now I searched all over the island
    For my stuff
    Man it’s rough
    When these dead bodies are piled in

    There’s only so much
    That Jack can do
    With polar bears running through the forrest
    Attacking you

    Now let’s not forget Claire
    She needs the prenatal
    Care – Make the wrong move
    And Charlie makes it fatal?

    I’m not really here for friends
    Just my bag
    I don’t care about you, your drugs
    Or Drive Shaft

    Now why did Sun laugh
    If she only speaks Korean?
    There’s something she ain’t telling
    There’s something Jin ain’t seeing

    She making ginseng
    Just to poison human beings
    And everybody on the cave & beach
    Disagreeing

    I should’ve asked Hurley
    Early
    ‘Cause he took a head count
    He knows everybody on the island

    I described my baggage
    He said he knows who had it
    Now we gotta figure out
    Why Ethan’s name wasn’t added to the manifest

    Chorus:

    My bag got lost
    So now I’m looking for it
    My bag wasn’t found
    I got tooken for it – Lost
    Have you see it
    Anywhere around here? – Lost
    Tell me if you see it
    When the ground clears

    I’m not taking orders from Jack
    Like I’m his soldier
    I don’t trust Katie
    As far as my arms could throw her
    Expect the unexpected
    When they do drop bombs so

Shouts:

  • Needlz – for producing this crazy beat. The beats he gave to me to get this song done are C-R-A-Z-Y!!! If I was a grimy dude, I’d probably put out another 88-Keys album… Entirely produced by Needlz (whether he’d like it or not). :D (Don’t laugh! You’d be surprised how often that happens with songs). *smh*
  • Irko (The Audio Nutrionist) – for blessing me, once again, with an awesome mix. He knocked this out in the matter of minutes practically. Needlz’ tracks are heavily layered so you could just imagine what Irko had to go thru to get this sounding proper. (“What’cha say Hammer? Proper!” © Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest)
