Once Upon a Time |
| Aaaah |
| Bring out the marching band |
| Tumi, Zubz, Chinese Man |
| Shhhh |
| AaAAAaaah |
| Once upon a time in this great land |
| European settlers would set off on a cave man quest |
| Dutch king summoning Jan Van Beek… |
| The rest was Queen Elizabeth conquest |
| As portrayed quite well by Cate Blanchett |
| Great actress, wait I may digress ! |
| Before that was pyramids and villages where pigmy little men and other such |
| denizens rest |
| Complex systems of living some fishing some building and others out killing |
| Matriarchy where the kings were tribe women |
| Painted art still seen today in tribe Symbols |
| Its a cycle your beginning is your ending and your interim |
| Your appearance is a historic coincidence |
| But they link it to your incorrect conditioning |
| Now everybody screaming racism as a consequence |
| Bring out the marching band |
| Let ‘em play an anthem for our continent |
| You went and botched the plan |
| Liberate the mind, but forgot the land |
| Bring out the marching band |
| Let ‘em play an anthem for our continent |
| Why you dun' botch the plan |
| Liberate the land, but forgot the man |
| Feel the momentum of an unspent force |
| A liberation found another one get lost |
| Magazine kept while the gun get tossed |
| Perpetual previsions of the sunset clause |
| No wonder they demand more |
| Nobody planned for |
| Brazilian cuts in the pubic crotch of the land court |
| In a Mexican stand-off |
| Picture a poverty stricken finger |
| Twitching on hair pin trigger |
| And pause… |
| Can’t deny my stress |
| I know better than to blame, the wild Wild West |
| As to reign the higher address as a mind set |
| Bigger the jail, the less serious the crimes get |
| So the tumbleweed rolls through these empty streets |
| They shot the sheriff all we have is the deputy |
| And he definitely does not went to rock the boats |
| So we work hard chopping, bloat, and forget we plead |
| Bring out the marching band |
| Let ‘em play an anthem for our continent |
| You went and botched the plan |
| Liberate the mind, but forgot the land |
| Bring out the marching band |
| Let ‘em play an anthem for our continent |
| Why you dun' botch the plan |
| Liberate the land, but forgot the man |
| He bought a range but his aim’s off for the plane |
| But it ain’t take off JFK straight shot |
| Great Lakes paying for it, hate makes the air foggy |
| NSA takes notice, play it safe same result |
| So David Blane got the rainbow sold to y’all |
| You can rise away till the Neuralizer tapers off |
| Break a law, take a farm you get our your acres I’d sooner root for that than a |
| handout with the arms embargo |
| It’ll be my own Zimbabwe so Colin Powell will swallow my bow and arrow and |
| follow that |
| With his chosen angle to photograph |
| My ass know a power to recover from all of that, NASTY |
| All about poverty playing that off happy |
| Skin too thick in the middle tin o' acne cream or Vaseline |
| You wait till them Somali kids |
| Give you a take from that Bruce Wayne alley scene |
| Bring out the marching band |
| Let' em play an anthem for our continent |
| You went botched the plan |
| Liberate the mind, but forgot the land |
| Bring out the marching band |
| Let' em play an anthem for our continent |
| You went botched the plan |
| Liberate the mind, but forgot the land |
