Biography:
Madvillain was an American hip-hop duo consisting of two MCs and producers, MF DOOM and Madlib. Their debut album Madvillainy was met with wide critical acclaim for its unique approach. Their short songs, obscure lyrics and sparse choruses made for a sound that was generally unfriendly to commercial radio, but was lauded as a key aspect of their identity as an underground act.
In 2006, Madvillain was featured on Stones Throw Records and Adult Swim's DVD/CD Chrome Children with a new song and live performance.

We did this research for true nerds and two birds

From the most retarded-est artists this year and forever
A# Am
Villain 'nem, the mean big brothers love ya
C
Definitely felonies, telling me
Bm A# Am
Treacherously MC, yelling B, set 'em free
C
Let me see, that strategy's misleading

Caught me, almost shot a eye out
Bm A#
Felt good though, even with the cotton dry mouth
Am
Time out
C
Okay, time back in
Bm A#
Never seen a living human being with black skin
Am C
What's crackin'? Besides smoking trees and wheezing
Bm A#
With no reason working like a broken tetrahedron
Am C
We get paid and get even
Bm A# Am
Building, still get mad when it's time to get v-vanim
C
They thought the Don had gone silent
Bm A# Am
Since deep in his studies he's accepted non-violence
C
Don't make him have to skip some classes
Bm A#
And open up an old can of whoop-ass with the fastness
Am C
Cut the raw with melatonin put a little more in
Bm A#
Strip club full of whores and grown men snoring
Am C
Keep the block sown like Thread and Bobbin Bonus
Bm A#
And make sure the seeds know they'd never ever own this
Am C
Beat a dead pony and sell the corpse for glue
Bm A#
Get a portion off the proceeds for the shoe
Am C
No need to bleed if there’s no big to do
Bm A# Am
Flew a fly flow with the speed of Mr. Magoo
C
Blew a wad on a platinum card debit
Bm A#
Come back broke as hell ask the god for credit
Am
Dead it
C
The mask is like a hand crafted ghillie suit
Bm A# Am

Waitin' for the date to drop the tape like bait
