linin' the cut

1. Relaxing at home, staying out of trouble, laying low (see example)

2. Sitting in jail

"Now the kid was kick-back, linin' the cut
Eatin' some fish and chips
And this freaky little groupie
From the funky side of town
Begin to give him some lip..."

From "The Tales of Kidd Funkadelic", track: "The Undisco Kidd"

cut the grinnin and drop the linen

Cut the grinnin and drop the linen would be a situation between a man and a woman when they are about to embark on a sexual escapade, but it hasn't quite happened. In those waning moments before it starts, quite possibly over drinks. Then, it's hammer time.

"Dionne, I think it's time we cut the grinnin and drop the linen."
