D.O.B. |
Dirty old streets and dirty young women |
Dirty black skies over dirty politicians |
Someone’s gotta clean up this mess |
Ain’t gonna be me though |
They got cameras in the sky |
Collecting on the damage |
Then they televise the suspect |
The lowly savage |
Like some preachers critiquing |
Strip teases at peep shows |
«All good boys and girls do as you’re told |
Pay your taxes, obey your God.» |
But what do we do when it’s our God or |
Government who has done wrong? |
Father got his books of the Bible |
Puppies got them loveable eyes |
An idol got a slew of disciples |
A thief in disguise don’t need a crowbar to pry |
And I’m a God-fearin' man |
So I’m gon' run as fast as I can; |
No crook in a suit’s gonna take from my hand |
When my babies need food |
And soon they’ll want crayons |
«All loyal subjects, you need not fear — |
If you stand fast, brother provides.» |
But what do we do when our brother forgets |
His blood is just as mine? |
«What's hangin' outta your shirt? |
What’s hangin' outta your skirt? |
You make me want some… but don’t call if you ain’t gon' come |
What’s hangin' outta your purse? |
You gon' fit that in your hearse? |
So lemme have some… but don’t call if you ain’t gon' come.» |
