Clyde "Silky" Malone Clyde "Silky" Malone always lived in the shadow of his big brother, the legendary Soulfire Curtis Malone. While Curtis was out saving cookouts and slapping raisins out of potato salad bowls, Clyde was back home in 1976, trying to make a name for himself with his brand new single, "You Better Put Some Water On That Damn Sh*t!" Inspired by a real-life breakfast crisis, Clyde had turned his struggle—running out of milk for his cereal—into a full-blown funk anthem for the hungry and hopeless. Clyde's big debut came at the Funky Bowl-O-Rama in Macon, Georgia, where the crowd was half there for the soul music and half there for the two-dollar shoe rentals. Decked out in a purple crushed velvet jumpsuit, platform shoes, and a gold "Silky" nameplate belt buckle, Clyde took the stage with a spoon in one hand and a bowl of dry cereal in the other. "This one’s for everybody who had to suffer in silence... with tap water and cornflakes!" he hollered, before launching into the funkiest, most heartbreaking jam the world never knew it needed. The performance was pure chaos. Folks in the crowd started passing around empty milk cartons like protest signs. Some women fainted when Clyde hit the high note during the third chorus. A fight nearly broke out when a man tried to actually pour water onto his neighbor’s nachos. By the time Clyde got to the final "DAMN SH*T!" scream, the building smelled like burnt popcorn and broken dreams—but Clyde knew he had arrived. Though he never quite reached Soulfire's legendary heights, Clyde "Silky" Malone carved out his own corner of the funk universe—forever known as the Patron Saint of Dry Cereal. And somewhere deep down, Curtis was proud... knowing that Clyde did check the fridge first, faced the cold, empty truth like a man, and still turned his struggle into pure, unfiltered funk [Intro] Mmm-hmm… Let me tell y’all a little story ’bout childhood pain… A story of hunger… heartbreak… and hydration. Yeah… we didn’t always have it all. Sometimes… the milk was gone. Sometimes… mama had to say somethin’ wise. She said… [Verse 1] Mama worked nights, Daddy drove a truck Times was tight, man, we had no luck I tiptoed to the kitchen, bowl in my hand Dreamin’ of sugar dreams and Raisin Bran Got my spoon, got my groove, I was feelin’ blessed But that fridge was empty, it put me to the test I called out loud, tears in my eye "Mama! Why the milk gotta say goodbye?!" [Pre-Chorus] She looked at me calm, with a hand on her hip Popped her gum once, then let it rip— She said, "Boy don’t trip, don’t you throw a fit…" [CHORUS] You better put some water on that damn sh*t! My cereal's dry as a bone, I can't eat it like this You better put some water on that damn sh*t! Without some milk, baby, it just ain't bliss [Post-Chorus] (Water, water) Pour it on now (Water, water) Don’t let me down [Verse 2] Woke up this morning, feeling so fine Reached for my cereal, it was breakfast time Opened the fridge, what did I see? No milk at all, it was a tragedy I shouted out loud, "Lord, what a twist!" I ain’t never lived through a crisis like this So I turned on the tap, heart full of gloom Poured that water like it was perfume [Pre-Chorus] Standing in the kitchen with my empty bowl Stomach's getting angry, out of control What’s a hungry person supposed to do? When the milk is gone, I tell you true... [CHORUS] You better put some water on that damn sh*t! My cereal's dry as a bone, I can't eat it like this You better put some water on that damn sh*t! Without some milk, baby, it just ain't bliss [Funky Breakdown] Better Put Some Water On That Damn Sh*t! DAMN SH*T! (Uh Huh) DAMN SH*T! (OK Now) DAMN SH*T! (Mannnnnnnnn!) Better Put Some Water On That Damn Sh*t! DAMN SH*T! (AAAHHHHHHHH!!) DAMN SH*T! (AAAHHHHHHHH!!) DAMN SH*T! (AAAHHHHHHHH!!) Better Put Some Water On That Damn Sh*t! [Bridge] You ever tried water on Corn Flakes? It ain’t right, it just ain’t right… But when you got no options… no choice… no milk… You get creative, baby. You get desperate. [Bridge] I tried Kool-Aid, orange juice, and even Sprite But nothin’ hits the same when the milk ain’t right I even cried into the bowl to make it wet But tears ain't creamy, and I still regret… [Final Chorus] You better put some water on that damn sh*t! (Ohhh Lord, help me now!) My cereal's dry as a bone, I can't eat it like this! (Say what? Say what??) You better put some water on that damn sh*t! (Breakfast blues never felt like this...) Better Put Some Water On That Damn Sh*t! DAMN SH*T! (Uh Huh) Better Put Some Water On That Damn Sh*t! DAMN SH*T! (Uh Huh) DAMN SH*T! (OK Now) Better Put Some Water On That Damn Sh*t! [Bridge] You ever tried water on Corn Flakes? It ain’t right, it just ain’t right… But when you got no options… no choice… no milk… You get creative, baby. You get desperate. [Bridge] I tried Kool-Aid, orange juice, and even Sprite But nothin’ hits the same when the milk ain’t right I even cried into the bowl to make it wet But tears ain't creamy, and I still regret… [Final Chorus] You better put some water on that damn sh*t! (Ohhh Lord, help me now!) My cereal's dry as a bone, I can't eat it like this! (Say what? Say what??) You better put some water on that damn sh*t! (Breakfast blues never felt like this...) Without some milk, baby, it just ain't bliss! [Fade-Out] You better put some water on that damn sh*t! (Woo! Somebody get the faucet!) My cereal's dry as a bone, I can't eat it like this! (Pour it slow, pour it low!) You better put some water on that damn sh*t! (That tap water ain’t sweet but it’s all we got!) Without some milk, baby, it just ain't bliss! (It just ain’t, it just ain’t...) You better put some water on that damn shit! (Ba-dum, ba-dum, ooooh!) Put it on, put it on, put it oooon now... You better... you better... Put some water... on that DAMN... SH*****TTTT! "I told you! Ain’t no milk today! Now eat and hush!
