Shalt. Is that Chalmattian for shallot? I mean, what kind of God would go around saying “You’re not an onion, you’re not an onion.”
“I’m green on the top
and I wave it all around
I’m white where it counts
and I’m sticking in the ground
I got roots, mutha fucka
and I’m big on the sound
I’m a rap, rap-scallion,
I’m a rap, rap-scallion.
Bitch, ho.”

If I had a rap group I’d call us “The Rap Scallions” and we’d all wear onion-themed outfits. Related: this is why I don’t have a rap group.
