I now present to you all the posted lyrics on Genius.com for the scatting section of Tribute
Ah-rah, dee
Soo-guh-goo-gee-goo-gee
Goo-guh fli-goo gee-goo
Guh fli-goo, ga-goo-buh-dee
Ooh, guh-goo-bee
Ooh-guh-guh-bee-guh-guh-bee
Fli-goo gee-goo
A-fliguh woo-wa mama Lucifer!
Oh man, I gotta see if that section is annotated.
The annotations on Genius.com are my favorite thing in the world. About 40% of them just restate the lyrics nearly word-for-word but using synonyms, and about 40% misinterpret very obviously figurative and poetic expressions as being very literal. The remaining 10% are Eminem writing extensive, insightful, and revelatory essays about his songs.
EDIT: Update, that section doesn't have annotations.

My go-to example for this:
Billy mocks the typical human belief to blame the world for the pain we cause ourselves through destructive behaviors.
The comparison to a vampire supports the idea that living slowly drains your health until you die.
“The world is a vampire” could be a reference to Cain killing Abel in the Bible (Genesis 4), and how the earth was cursed from him drinking Abel’s blood.
Also as Billy later talks about Jesus it could be about the martyr-thing Jesus did… he went through a lot of pain for his father, belief and humanity. What exactly did he get? A place in heaven?

I've had decent success using Genius, but I've mainly been looking at local music that isn't super-internationally famous. When I looked at a Lonely Island song the annotations were definitely ridiculous.

I think this might be my favorite song from the Donkey Kong Country games.
Since this is now a DKC Music Appreciation thread (which I am 10,000% OK with), let me just tell you that the OCRemix DKC2 album, Serious Monkey Business, is extremely legit. My favorite pieces from it are probably:
Of special note is Monkeys Disarm Their Kremlings, the metal remix of Crocodile Cacophony: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLp-5FLvTbI
I like the music, but I also like that this song has the lyrics "Yum yum yum, potassium!" sung in a death growl.

No, you have to wade through the mucky muck.
Hmm, I'll consider it anyway.
How about the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away?
both the song and the game
That's telekinesis, rhylith
Oh it's a new Wii Sports? Well my folks will like it at least.
to move you

Let's just say I'm pulling that rounding error scam on annotations. I'm gonna retire on these here annotations.
"Ride or Die" confirmed Dominic Toretto, as they took off to find the Dragon Balls in hopes of reviving their friend Sonic
wait, back up a second
did I miss a new Hotel Dusk thing getting announced
Also cing is dead as a doornail so don't expect a third hotel dusk
Was that totally not a Hotel Dusk thing from a while back any good
Chase: Cold Case Investigations, that was it
It's only like 2 hours long, but the characterization is pretty solid, so the cing staff that arcsys poached nailed the most important thing
Wet fart of an ending and the gameplay isn't nearly as polished as hotel dusk
These Jake Hunter games supposed to be good?

Zonnie have you heard Jake Kaufman's remix of that song for OCR? It's incredible.
Backwards Room (remix of Run, Rambi! Run!)
and
Trapped in the Minds (remix of Mining Melancholy)

Not yet!
I've been listening to Good Knight Production's reproductions of it though and it is very good.
Gonna get Zelda! Maybe Splatoon 2 or Mario also!
I haven't been a Nintendo fan boy since the Wii came out, but the Switch is the best system.
I hit some Bokoblins with a stick and then blew myself up accidentally so now I am watching Regular Show on it while cooking dinner
Tip for Mario: play the game it's perfect and amazing
Tip for Switch: buy a pro controller. I had to sell mine in a time of poverty (lol every day) but it's the most comfortable controller I've ever used
