This brick
|
Which is gripped by my fingers
|
Which shoot out from my hand
|
Which is fastened to my arm
|
That meets up with my shoulder
|
That sits well below my head
|
That surrounds my brain
|
Which is tied up with thoughts of resent-
|
Ment, fear, and loathing
|
Because of your using me in your road to
|
Wealth and power
|
Will crash through your picture window
|
And kill you
|
|
We gon put you in the squeeze
|
We gon put you in the squeeze
|
|
The city is a planet of glass and granite
|
And it's ran by some masters of mack
|
Mechanics
|
We got schools where the facts are
|
Banished
|
We got scams where your stocks'll vanish
|
And the hospitals is gon cost you racks
|
So panic
|
|
All the gangsters throw your triggers up
|
All the stoners throw your flickers up
|
All the drunks throw your liquor up
|
All the bank tellers stick em up
|
Teach them babies how to grip a buck
|
|
When this hits the streets it's
|
Thunder with thesis
|
We'll show where the beast is
|
Make sure it decreases
|
They smolder with speeches
|
We shoulder the leeches
|
Call off them polices
|
This ain't where the thief is
|
|
Janitors
|
Work all night like Dracula
|
Burger flippers grab your spatulas
|
Managers
|
Get your Acuras
|
Big bosses guard your sack because
|
We'll put it in the squeeze
|
Squ-squ-squ-squ-squeeze
|
Squ-squ-squ-squ
|
We gon put you in the squeeze
|
Squ-squ-squ-squ-squeeze
|
We gon put you in the
|

|
|
World poverty has just gone platinum
|
Unemployment checks
|
Need to come with a gat in em
|
Chains and leather whips
|
Slave masters still crackin em
|
This is where I'm scattin from
|
Listen to the battle drum
|
We all got our shackles on
|
|
Ladies shoot your deuce-deuces
|
Bankers tip your masseuses
|
Wardens tighten up your nooses
|
Muthafuckas make noise if you bought
|
Your clothes boosted
|
|
The earth is composed of space and
|
Atoms
|
And controlled by some pimps
|
Without Stacy Adams
|
But one day they're gon taste the cannon
|
When the people rise up
|
And make them muthafuckas face the dragon
|
|
Mercenaries show your paychecks
|
Homeless folks show your blankets
|
Rich folks throw your banquets
|
Tell officials what to say next
|
Cuz they won't be at ease
|
When we put em in the squeeze
|
|
Squ-squ-squ-squ
|
We gon put you in the squeeze
|
Squ-squ-squ-squ
|
We gon put you in the squeeze
|
Squ-squ-squ-squ
|
We gon put you in the squeeze
|
|
Cuz they vote with their guns
|
Cuz they vote with their guns
|
Cuz they vote with their guns
|
Cuz they vote with their guns
|
Cuz they vote with their guns
|
Cuz they vote with their guns
|
Cuz they vote with their guns
|
You know they vote with their guns
