Whip$ and Chain$ - Flobots[00:00:00]
Strange fruit I roll up in my ford taurus[00:00:09]
Emissions I won't pass like Gandalf at Moria[00:00:11]
Way out of order[00:00:14]
Sedan with four doors[00:00:15]
Pull out garage and lost side view mirror[00:00:16]
My credit card final fantasy breaks the limit[00:00:18]
I just paid just brakes to break my lemon[00:00:20]
Won't make enough juice for my pessimism[00:00:22]
So I'm not for given 'till my debts forgiven[00:00:24]
Skim off the top[00:00:26]
Convertible roofs[00:00:28]
Thinking spanish[00:00:29]
Green sounds like the truth[00:00:30]
Got it on lock jaw to the tip o' the tooth[00:00:31]
Way I floss no dental insurance to boot[00:00:34]
But my chain hangs low' I could double dutch[00:00:36]
Keep my eyes to the floor so don't stumble much[00:00:38]
I shine at night from all the carrots[00:00:40]
'Cause it's not who you are but who you're wearing[00:00:42]
Stay sportin lashes from the old massa's[00:00:45]
And what's under the chassis[00:00:47]
Clasps on the neck says[00:00:49]
'Property of the masses'[00:00:52]
The block is gentrified while the governor's classic[00:00:54]
Don't know who the boss is do I hold the power[00:00:56]
Or am I powered like horses[00:00:58]
Whip is blowin' out my back like I'm exhaust-ed[00:00:59]
Pipes blowin' more fire than pentecost[00:01:01]
Who killed o [00:01:03]
Why and what's the reason for [00:01:05]
Who starts homicidal wars [00:01:08]
Rich man poor man either or [00:01:09]
Who shows us what we knead [00:01:12]
Who's got the bread for the luxuries [00:01:14]
Who told us it's ingrained [00:01:17]
We who hold these whips and chains[00:01:19]
If there's no lock who needs a key [00:01:21]
When did we stop being free [00:01:26]
I see things vis a vis a sea change[00:01:28]
Full fathom five people became remains deep beneath chains[00:01:33]
We pay into easing these pains[00:01:35]
'Cause the history is difficult[00:01:37]
Wish the results could be flipped like reciprocals[00:01:39]
Allow me to renumerate aloud the typical rude awakenings[00:01:44]
Of the drowsy consumer base[00:01:46]
Bass boom will make the crowd sing and syncopate with[00:01:48]
The views that they're espousing[00:01:51]
Synchronize to the stupid take a thousand[00:01:53]
Sinning like every excuse they make is valid[00:01:55]
Simon Williams I Wonder Man[00:01:57]
Just how did our oil get under their sand [00:02:00]
And how did our homes get onto their land [00:02:02]
And how did our foes get guns in their hands [00:02:04]
Conflict diamonds[00:02:07]
Child labor tennis shoes[00:02:07]
Genocide energy[00:02:09]
Gentrified gin and juice[00:02:10]
Slave trade banks[00:02:11]
Rape-based internet movies[00:02:12]
What's a simple straight-laced human to do[00:02:13]
With a strange fate twist and fame[00:02:16]
Except talk sh*t and name off a list of gains[00:02:18]
But do you realize I'd find my lips in flames[00:02:21]
If I tried to take pride in these whips and chains[00:02:23]
Who killed o [00:02:25]
Why and what's the reason for [00:02:26]
Who starts homicidal wars [00:02:29]
Rich man poor man either or [00:02:31]
Who shows us what we knead [00:02:34]
Who's got the bread for the luxuries [00:02:36]
Who told us it's ingrained [00:02:38]
We who hold these whips and chains[00:02:40]
Who holds these[00:02:43]
Who holds these[00:02:44]
Who holds these traps and circuses[00:02:45]
We want it[00:02:47]
They own it[00:02:48]
So we're going half-berserk for it[00:02:49]
Let's take it[00:02:51]
Let's take it[00:02:53]
Let's take it back before cassettes[00:02:54]
Pepsi cans and packs of percocet[00:02:56]
1910 all the factory workers said[00:02:58]
Yes we can demand a weekend[00:03:01]
If we can get the man to weaken[00:03:03]
So if you're ready than send a beacon[00:03:05]
To be continued and to begin[00:03:07]
We can't be content to steep in the anaesthesia[00:03:09]
Invisible hands of phantoms depend on[00:03:12]
Ya fantasies have been poisoned[00:03:14]
But we've got the panacea [00:03:15]
Who killed o [00:03:18]
Why and what's the reason for [00:03:20]
Who starts homicidal wars [00:03:23]
Rich man poor man either or [00:03:26]
Who shows us what we knead [00:03:28]
Who's got the bread for the luxuries [00:03:30]
Who told us it's ingrained [00:03:33]
We who hold these whips and chains[00:03:34]
Who killed o [00:03:37]
Why and what's the reason for [00:03:39]
Who starts homicidal wars [00:03:42]
Rich man poor man either or [00:03:43]
Who shows us what we knead [00:03:46]
Who's got the bread for the luxuries [00:03:48]
Who told us it's ingrained [00:03:51]
We who hold these whips and chains[00:03:53]
