    I’ve always thought this was a pretty good one:

    real G’s move in silence like lasagna

      I don’t get it. What is lasagna, here?

          Except it’s not really, because it changes how the N is pronounced

          Sure, but what does lasagna have to do with being silent?

            It’s a metaphor.

            The “g” is silent in the pronunciation of lasagna.

            This gives the meaning that “real gangsters” operate silently.

    On Doomsday, ever since the womb ‘Til I’m back where my brother went, that’s what my tomb will say

    Right above my government; Dumile. Either unmarked or engraved, hey, who’s to say?

    -MF Doom, Doomsday

    I really love the wordplay with his government name ‘Dumile’ having a double meaning of ‘Doom’ll lay’. There are a bunch of other MF Doom lyrics in contention for goat status, in my opinion.

      I never listen to him myself, but everything I hear of his lyrics are genius on another level, I’m unsure anybody else can really compete, at least not as consistently

    I like big butts and I cannot lie

    Or

    when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in your face you get sprung

    Really that whole song is a masterpiece.
