Lyrics In It for a Minute - Foreign Beggars

In It for a Minute

Even that you’re thinking that you’re in it for a minute
That minute could be linking to spilling over your limits…
(Metropolis)
Damn!
Late to work
Boss on beef and I hate the jerk
Could have been a day full of grace and mirth
But I figured last slave and I’ll make him hurt
So I reached for his throat, (?) his shirt
He’s pretty weak for a bloke, gave a little scream
Then he breezed in his coat pretty fast man
All I could see was the smoke
So I left a note
It said: «Dear Mr. Jones, I quit!»
Next time I see you, better have my cheque
And if you don’t, well I know where you live
I’m a come around gully up your house in the sticks
Now I’m just pissed, looking for somebody to rough up
And anybody (?) getting stuck or bruck up
And One Shot’s bruv got snuffed from one punch
Chucked up last night’s dinner and 'nuff lunch
Guess I could’ve left right then
Could’ve headed out, (?) start fighting
But I got a taste for the blood on my knuckle
Start to give chase with a laugh and a chuckle
Hid beneath the table, cowered in the lunch room
Running down the corridor waving a belt strap
Heard a gun shot, felt pain and I fell back
Raaare!
That’s when I thought I was dead
And I didn’t wanna die ‘cos I figure that’s dread
But when I woke up, I was cuffed to a bed in a hospital
Telling this story to the Feds
And I begged, «Please don’t lock me up!»
They looked at me and said, «Blood, you must be nuts!»
Cause we’re the only ones who run around (???)
And we’ll be damned if we let a boy fuck with us, ya know?
(Orifice Vulgatron)
I stand on my lonesome
Man with a plan i was picked by the hand of the chosen
I was jammin' on road when a voice said
Come back down to the land of the broken
Yo, I was standing there jokin'
When a brother straight stepped in my face
Tryin' to hand me a toke ting
I was like all taken aback
At first I was baffed ‘cos I thought he was joking
He was like «take this»
Man was in a rush so I didn’t ask questions
He was on a ting like, «Man, don’t you trust me?»
I was like «Mmm.»
all tryin' to stay patient
Gwaan blud?
Don’t ya wanna feel weightless?
Breathe in the madness once in your life
That’s when I looked in his eyes
Clocked bredder was a nutcase
Holdin' a gun to my side
He said, «Come follow me down this road for a second»
Bredren, listen!
So I looked to the left, to the right, and I looked back
Caught a glimpse of myself stood back in the distance
All baffed in the instance
Wondering How?
When?
Why?
But it happened too quick
Bredder just laughed in my face
Unloaded two clips
So I fell to the ground
Starin' me down was a br’er that was wearing a crown
Surrounded by the light that was blinding
Mind in a mess, stressed out, tryin' to: in the sound
Now something was shaking Under my feet
Felt the ground open up i could sense the danger
Hence I remember the day I was swept away from the blade of a stranger…
