About Like a Boss

"Like a Boss" is a song written and recorded by comedy hip hop troupe The Lonely Island and released on their debut studio album Incredibad. The song is a parody of the song of the same name from Slim Thug's debut album Already Platinum. The song is narrated by a businessman (Andy Samberg) who describes his increasingly outlandish daily activities as "the boss". The music video initially aired as an SNL Digital Short on Saturday Night Live with actor Seth Rogen. In 2011, it was subject to a lawsuit from the producers of the song, who claimed they never received proper compensation for their work.

F*ck that nigga Slim! You the motherfucking boss!

I call shots (like a boss)
Stack knots (like a boss)
Cop drops (like a boss)
On top (like a boss)
Paid tha cost (like tha boss)
When I floss (like a boss)
Big house (like a boss)
Rep the North (like a boss)
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? You see the motherfucking boss!

I'm Slim Thugger motherfucker! Tha boss of all bosses
That's right! AKA, he who the king of the North is!
Wars won, no losses, who want to compete?
With the chief of the police, who got the keys to the streets
I'm a full time hustler, part-time rhymer
I'm having thangs Pha-real, you punks ain't no Grinders
You fools just went to school and learned to use Pro Tools?
And tried to cop you a G, lose, on the ten o'clock news
You can't survive in my shoes or afford to pay my dues
Wit your cartoon crews, you niggaz destined to lose!
I rock Eminem and 50 Cent crowds
And spend most of my weekends cruising above clouds
From the West to the South way to the East coast
I switch time zones more than ho's switch clothes
I was born to be on top (top), born to call shots (shots)
Born to cop drops and trick off fats knots, like a boss!

I call shots (like a boss)
Stack knots (like a boss)
Cop drops (like a boss)
On top (like a boss)
Paid tha cost (like tha boss)
When I floss (like a boss)
Big house (like a boss)
Rep the North (like a boss)
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? You see the motherfucking boss!

Call me Sarge, I'm the head nigga in charge
You see the be	 on the 'Nage parked in the garage?
I'm the coach, I wrote them plays for my team
Hah! I'm the mastermind behind these teams wit green
I call all the shots, provide all the knots
Supply all the rocks and sponsor all the spots
I stay on the top floor, got the executive suite
Sit in the corner chair where me and my niggaz meet
Sport the presidential Rolly, got a driver that drive
I don't open doors no more, he do it from outside
At the club, they lock off V.I.P. for me
And send bottle after bottle to my section for free
Hah! You see this rock hanging on my pinkie ring?
I'm respected in these streets, they treat me like a King
I get accepted like family, your house is my house
I guess that's why they call me "Slim Thug Tha Boss!"

I call shots (like a boss)
Stack knots (like a boss)
Cop drops (like a boss)
On top (like a boss)
Paid tha cost (like tha boss)
When I floss (like a boss)
Big house (like a boss)
Rep the North (like a boss)
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? You see the motherfucking boss!

I call shots (like a boss)
Stack knots (like a boss)
Cop drops (like a boss)
On top (like a boss)
Paid tha cost (like tha boss)
When I floss (like a boss)
Big house (like a boss)
Rep the North (like a boss)
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? Who the motherfucking boss?
Who the boss nigga? You see the motherfucking boss!
