Blue Iguana |
livin in a world |
of hate and corruption |
nobody wins |
you just die of consumption |
of a government |
they have no sentiment |
for you or for your kind |
cause its a state of mind |
in a tropical paradise |
you roll the dice and gamble |
(blue iguana) |
sell your soul and scramble |
in a sauna |
play it cool like a blue iguana |
(blue iguana) |
(blue iguana) |
now that i got this point across |
don’t nobody get cocky |
and think they’re the boss |
the boss is the president |
and you’re a resident |
playin' the part of a slickster |
it takes a thief |
and you’re a trickster |
i spy private eye |
(blue iguana) |
you’re the guy |
who gets the money in the end |
only the irs will win |
(blue iguana) |
(blue iguana) |
break… break-break-break… |
break… break-break-break… |
capitalism describes |
the history of a nation |
the first law of nature |
is self-preservation |
(blue iguana) |
survival of the fittest |
i mean, i ain’t with this |
the money ain’t worth it |
so yo, man, forget this |
(spanish) |
(blue iguana) |
(blue igua… blue igua… blue igua… blue igua… blue iguana…) |
