These is words from the Arch Bishop, some call it six up
The Betty Crocker, marvel cake stakes admissor
Wax janitor, black Jack Mulligan from Canada
Slam dance, tarantula style, youse a fan of the
Monopoly king, Slavic poetry
Carnegie Hall’s off the hook, let’s push through the armory
With lyrical quotes like that, I don’t know why I even have to bother explaining this new Slangology theme for any of you. Anyhow, for almost a decade I’ve wondered what the hell GFK was talking about when he mentioned “blackjack mulligan from Canada”.
I had convinced myself it was some sort of clothing or garment brand, perhaps a winter toque, a down vest, or suede leather jacket that Ghost picked up in Canada or stumbled across in the earlier Wu days. 10 years and a quick google search later, I’m pretty sure he’s talking about Blackjack Mulligan, a former pro wrestler (from the WWF), who by the way, isn’t from Canada… he’s from somewhere down in Texas.
