Lyrics
Mighty Cracker Fly

he was mighty, mighty
mighty cracker fly
he wore his hair in an afro
he loved black cherry pie
he wants to be like the brotha’s
but his skin’s too milky white
so he wrote himself a theme song
mighty, mighty cracker fly

ooo-ooo
mighty, mighty cracker fly

what kind of funky thing will he do next

he doesn’t talk like a white boy
he’s crackin’ jaws in da hood
he want’s to be such a bad, bad boy
but he’s so bloody good
his teeth were cut on Motown
he hopped aboard the Soul Train
he wanted to be all up in the P-Funk
so he changed his name

ooo-ooo
mighty, mighty cracker fly
ooo-ooo
mighty, mighty cracker fly

what kind of funky thing will he do next

get your maple bar shoe wearin’, hush puppy, blue eyed soul singin’,
want to have street cred skinny ass out of my face
your little theftified wanna be Super Shaft theme song is just not enough

ooo-ooo
mighty, mighty cracker fly
ooo-ooo
mighty, mighty cracker fly

what kind of funky monster has he created

Get down with your bad self!
Funky! Funky! Funky! Made me want to turn the speakers up and just cut loose in the library. (I restrained myself, however.) Too much fun. Perfect for a Friday.

Man, you are one bad mutha.....

I'm all better now
Eh eh eh...

If this doesn't fly to the top, I'm gonna stop flapping my wings in favor of this place, you, mighty fly thing...

I was feeling pretty much as low as a maggot this morning, but that was before this went buzzn' 'round my head.

Thanks, ...errr..., whatever your name is!... Macca

Whoo!
This is fantastic! I'm a-grooving and a-moving! Love the sound; the production is terrific, with that lovely bass sound! Vocals are out of this world. Did somebody say Prince? Lovely funky guitar, and clever, hilarious lyrics, observant and very well-crafted. An outstanding job. Nicely done. Kudos. Peace.

Prince!
Wait... I don't remember His Purpleness having quite this wavelength of humor. This is the tastiest slice of funk I've heard in a while, tho - what kind of funky thing will he do ne-e-ext? O yeah.

Mighty... mighty... music. OOoooooooooo...

Nice change of pace here
Prince is the obvious choice - but how about Terence Trent D'Arby just for a real blast from the 80's past?!

Love it!

Love (love) that funky stuff. Esp. that li'l clean guitar line that keeps filtering in and out...

You really got it goin', here, Mr. Spike...and as a white boy who's played in some funk bands, I can definitely relate a bit to this...there were some hurdles to overcome...'till the pocket was created and sustained...then there were no more questions. Like with this tune. It's really great, man...

Self portrait? LOL. Great sounds. Excellent production and vocal harmonies, wanted to hear it louder but my volume switch only goes up to 11 (Spinal Tap quote) :).

This is so cool
Another killer funk tune. Reminds me of the band "Dag". the bassline is badass and the organ and wacka guitar are tasty. More like this please.
