The song (free MP3 download for Phantom Tollbooth readers): 
Assault With a Deadly Woman(Lil' Kim's Attack on Teen Minds) 
From the forthcoming CD, Shrink Rapped: 

well, her motto is 
wear less, and have more sex 
and her words flow smoother than honey 
and she'll put you to the test 
but her words are poisonous to youth 
though I know that sex sells 
and if they buy it 
well she'll take these teens 
through utter hell 

assault with a deadly woman 
attack on the adolescent mind 
assault with a deadly woman 
her words are weaspon to the soul 
of the adolescent mind 
Assault with a Deadly Woman...by Dr. B.L.T. (c)2005 

Let the nightmare begin.  Here's an example of the lyrical nightmare that's generated when Lil' Kim hooks up with 50 Cent, her "partner in rhyme":See PT 50 Cent article 

 
[Chorus: 50 Cent]
I got the magic stick
I know if I can hit once, I can hit twice
I hit the baddest chicks
Shorty don't believe me, then come with me tonight
And I'll show you maaagic
(What? What?) Maaagic
I got the magic stick

[50 Cent]
I'm a freak to the core
Get a dose once, you gon' want some more
My tongue touch ya girl, ya toes bound to curl
This exclusive sh** I don't share with the world
I have you up early in the mornin, moanin
Back shot, proper or low can't stop us
Been a fiend for this since Rakim made hits
Get the position down pat, then it's time to switch
I'll rock the boat, I'll work the middle
I skeet it up, straight beat it up..
.. and I ain't in the hood with my toast out loc'n
I'm in the telly workin up a sweat strokin
Tonight's the night, you can fall in love
You can call your mama right now, tell her you met a thug
I pop a lot of s*** cause I can back it up
My left stroke's the death stroke... 

Message to teen boys: If you're a guy, it's cool to be a sexually promiscuous.  Go ahead and pimp it and pumpt it like 50 Cent if you want to please the ladies. Lust or bust.  No regard for consequences.    

Message to teen girls: To please that young man, you must do as Lil' Kim says she does in this song: give it up, and get as nasty and as often as possible. Don't worry about God's will, just take the pill and chill. Don't worry about STDs, don't worry about where the man has been.  Don't worry about consequences.    

Do we dare move on? 

QB ya s*** s***t is crazy yo
Can't f*** wit you
Fo real
They can't f*** wit you
They can't f*** wit you
What's wrong wit ya'll b**ches man
What's wrong wit ya'll niggas man
C'mon The f*** is wrong wit ya'll niggas
Where you at nigga
C'mon nigga
Where you at Where you at nigga c'mon

Yo Check em out Yo yo yo
When it's murder on my mind, I do it all the time
Got tombstone flow, wit a casket rhyme
Your gats is plastic, I got platinum nines
With gold shells Banger Vegas tap ya spine
I'm the type to spaz out and take back what's mine
Rep for my hood niggas slingin crack and dimes
Half is mine
So you know it's half my time
In the pen or the box
Wit my man on the ox
We gon do it like we did it on the block
Let's roll
Like wit 60's 30's
40 niggas wit me
Rep ya hood
Rep ya block
Rep ya city 

Message to teens: Cuss, don't communicate.  Violence is cool, racism is cool, the best way to communicate with other homies and to threaten them.  Drugs are the way to go.  

Moms, dads, teens, you beginning to get the picture? Lil' Kim's lyrics are bad for your mental health and, parents, even worse for the mind(s) of your teen(s).  

Let's listen in on more of Lil' Kim: 

*first 30 seconds: woman moans as beat slows down*

I gets right to the point -- no time to play around
When it comes to this cheddar -- lay a nigga down
Bust shots at his Rover if he dare come back around
Pay me on time or I gots to take mine
At first I seem friendly; but that's just in me
I warn you -- when I blow, it gets a little windy
You make me wanna fight you, I ain't nothin like you
Y'all "Paper Thin," my s*** recycled
They call me Lil' Kim, a.k.a. Cover Girl
Sometimes I feel like I'm from another f**kin world
Niggaz buy me glass slippers and diamond fingernails
and awwwww, shit, I got it all in this b**** 

(Chorus) x2
Goodness gracious, the papers!
Where the cash at? Where the stash at?
Nigga pass that!
We rollin in tinted Nav's
TV's in the dash, see we love the cash

To all my b***hes in the strip club -- shakin they a**
(I ain't mad, do your thing mami!) Get that cash!
And all my hustlin niggaz still out on the ave.
Fightin over blocks and who got the best rocks
and "Goodness gracious," the struggle never stops
The things we all do to keep our pockets filled with knots
People f*** to my music -- they say it's pornographic
My Billboards is nice; one day gon' be a classic
I f*** with dudes, with "Members Only" jackets
that sleep on brass beds, with money for a mattress
"Gettin' Money" b***, and I roll with dimes
Take pictures with our nines on the cover of New York Times
Tattoos down our spine with the the picture of a dime
Cuttin niggaz short like inmates for phone time
Everything I get is -- custom made
Niggaz, wanna get laid; I, gotta get paid
(The papers..)

Message to teens: I'm your role model.  I have no moral standards, and neither should you.  Do whatever you feel you need to do to survive, regardless of the consequences.  Indulge yourself in sexual promiscuity.  If someone gets in your face, tear their face off!  Say whatever you want in your songs, as long as it gets you on the Billboard charts.  I have no self-esteem.  I have no self-respect.  Neither should you. 

Song: Custom Made (Give It To You) 
Album: The Notorious K.I.M. 

Young minds are weakened everyday by Lil' Kim's lyrical poison.  Instead of offering teens a proactive, positive problem solving perspective, she offers them violence, drugs and indiscriminant sex---dead ends that kill.  Instead of encouraging young people to be actively engaged in solving life's problems, she encourages them to contribute to those very problems, and to compound those problems by engaging in ruthless, mindless, soul-less, self-destructive actively, without regard for consequences.  Instead of inculcating within young people, skills that will help teens gain positive attention from others, she encourages them to provoke others with threatening, disrespectful and untoward behavior.  Instead of offering teens faith in the future, courage, integrity and faith in God, she offers them meaninglessness, emptiness and hopelessness.  Instead of encouraging teens to stay in school and to strive for a bright and successful future career, she encourages the very behavior that leads teens to drop out of school, to become disengaged in living, and woefully engaged in destroying themselves, destroying others, and destroying the future.    

Seen enough? Had enough? There's plenty more where that came from. Lil' Kim, a lil' poison goes a long way.  Get in line. Save teen minds. Stop her rhyme. Stop this crime: Assault With a Deadly Woman!
