Here have a dollar
Infact no brother man
here have two
Two dollars means a snack for me
but it means a big deal to you
be strong, serve god only
know that if you do
beautiful heavens await
that's the poem i wrote for the first time
I saw a man with no clothes no money no plate
mr wendal
that's his name
no one ever knew his name
cause he's a no one
never twice about spending on an old bum
till i had the chance to really get know one
that i know one to give him monrey isn't charity
he gives me some knoledge
i by him some shoes
to think that blacks spend all their money on big colleges
still most of us come out confused!
Mr wendal has freedom
a freedom that you and i think is dumb
he's free to be without the worries that are quick to this society
cause mr wendal is a bum

Who is Mr. Wendal?

Mr. wendal was the title of a song by the hip hop group Arrested Development back in 1992. Why he came with this thread is a mystery to me.

Two dollars means a snack for me
but it means a big deal to you

Wow its over a year since this was posted.
I remember Mr Wendal, Everyday people, Give a man a fish, Tennessee, and a few other tracks from that album. They made a jazzy-funky afro brand of hip hop back music then. . . was cool. That was the rap in the song mr wendal. . .

Title: Mr. Wendal

Here, have a dollar,
in fact no brotherman here, have two
Two dollars means a snack for me,
but it means a big deal to you
Be strong, serve God only,
know that if you do, beautiful heaven awaits
That's the poem I wrote for the first time
I saw a man with no clothes, no money, no plate
Mr.Wendal, that's his name,
no one ever knew his name cause he's a no-one
Never thought twice about spending on a ol' bum,
until I had the chance to really get to know one
Now that I know him, to give him money isn't charity
He gives me some knowledge, I buy him some shoes
And to think blacks spend all that money on big colleges,
still most of y'all come out confused

[CHORUS:]
Go ahead, Mr.Wendal (2x)

Mr.Wendal has freedom,
a free that you and I think is dumb
Free to be without the worries of a quick to diss society
for Mr.Wendal's a bum
His only worries are sickness
and an occasional harassment by the police and their chase
Uncivilized we call him,
but I just saw him eat off the food we waste
Civilization, are we really civilized, yes or no ?
Who are we to judge ?
When thousands of innocent men could be brutally enslaved
and killed over a racist grudge
Mr.Wendal has tried to warn us about our ways
but we don't hear him talk
Is it his fault when we've gone too far,
and we got too far, cause on him we walk
Mr.Wendal, a man, a human in flesh,
but not by law
I feed you dignity to stand with pride,
realize that all in all you stand tall

[CHORUS]

Mr.Wendal, Lord, Mr.Wendal

Always in ma playlist.I love the video too.

One of the most reasonable rap tracks ever, though old, it appeals to elites and thinkers, definitely not the best for pary and shake that ass heads

Whot bout everyday people?

His only worries are sickness and an occassional harrasment, by the police and their chase,
uncivilized we call him, but i just saw him, eat up the ffood we waste,
civilization: are we really civilized? yes, or no, who are we to judge? whenn thoousands of innocent men can be brutally enslazed or killed by a racist grudhe, mr wendal has tried to warn us about our ways, but we don't hear him talk

Is it his fault that we got too far? or we got to far, cause on him we walked?
Mr wendal, a human, in flesh, but not by law, i bid you dignity to stand with pride, realising all in all that you stand tall, Go ahead mr wendal

what really happened to that group? hope they are still alive, but i doubt if that old man in their midst is still alive
