Lyrics
Deadpool:
Oh, is it me? Well, here's my first issue:
I barely even know enough about you to diss you!
But do you guys honestly think that I would screw this feud up
And lose to the dude a huge toothie cootchie chewed up?!
That's bananas! I do damage when I brandish my katanas!
Man, I'll slice you up then vanish in my lady bug pajamas!
I'm one of a kind; you're a xerox of your papa,
Doing temp work for Vader and odd jobs for Jabba!
I'm tight; you're mad baggy! I'm toned; you're so flappy!
Mad 'cause Sam Jackson killed your clone daddy!
Somebody oughta put a bounty on that cape!
Maybe I'll write a letter and mail it in your face!
Boba Fett:
Good thing I keep Tums in the Slave 1 'cause your style makes me spacesick,
And your bars are like your old pal, Cable: fucking basic!
I'll smack a merc in the mouth if he doesn't quit running that lip off!
Bitch, who you calling clone? You're a Deathstroke ripoff!
You stole Spider-Man's eyes and Snake Eyes' weapons!
You got Wolverine's powers; man, you're comic sloppy seconds!
That Dr. Killebrew dude needs to go back to med school
'Cause right now, you're no good to me, Deadpool!
Deadpool:
Ooooh, what's that? A missile backpack?
Well, I guess you'll be alright if a fucking bird attacks!
Presenting the most overrated character anyone ever saw,
With five lines in the trilogy, and one of them was, "AAAH!"
Boba Fett:
I only need five lines 'cause I look fucking great.
You look like someone spilled lasagna on your face!
But you're worth a lot to me if I bring you back dead.
Schizophrenics pay triple: one for each head.
Deadpool:
Who you calling schizophrenic?! You've got two different voices!
You're like your holiday special, man: full of bad choices!
Boba Fett:
You think your chimichanga's hot, but you couldn't be milder.
You should've made the choice to ditch the prick from Van Wilder!
Deadpool:
And the coolest things about you got straight up abandoned!
You let a kiwi hold your gun and he fucked up your canon!
So maybe don't talk about movies 'cause you've got dick to say!
Wrap that arm dart around Jar Jar and go far, far away!
Boba Fett:
I'm a legend; you're a trend. You ain't got half the skills I got.
I'll beat your ass with one eye closed (ugh!): Boba Fetty Wap!
And then I'll call Domino's. (Ooh!) She likes what I'm shaking.
She prefers my durasteel to your Canadian bacon!
Now take a lesson from a genuine assassin who's blasting foes!
I come equipped with a full set of sick Mandalorian flows!
Everybody knows you got that power of regeneration.
Now run home and heal from this disintegration.
