[Mission in Bolivia Rap]
We're Duke E Dubya B
5 kids n Dr. Beaule
Heard about a Bolivian village
that really needed a bridge
C.L.A.C.S., Lord and P3
wrote a lotta grants n we got the mo-ney
after surveying Saturday morning
we're finally getting going
on a mission in Bolivia
ready to read stadia
gonna build a bridge
takes a lotta courage
When we landed in La Paz
customs cried a faux paus
Ga-Young couldn't get a visa
Go back home, Date prisa
There was nothing we could do,
then one day out of the blue
the Korean embassy came through
picked her up at the airport like a book overdue
we're on a mission in Bolivia
almost in hysteria
gonna build a bridge
almost missed it by a smidge
