(co-written by E.P., Bran Man, and Liquid)
Et les pièces sont vides à présent et je suis libre de mon temps
Faire un café fumer un joint me semble intelligent
La chose à faire en ce cas-là n'est pas prescrite par la loi
Ni par les Tables de la Foi
Tu n'es pas ici des murs sont disparus tes nus tes photos
et tes meubles rococo
J'arrive d'un endroit où j'ai senti l'absurde d'ici-bas dans un building où on voulait me trouer le dos
Take the money and go Johnny go...
Je mets la clé dans la serrure le bruit me semble un bruit de mort
Je sens une oppression qui vient du vide autour de moi
La nuit est noire et les immeubles me font penser à un immense
fantôme une menace qui me guette un froid dans l'enclos
Je me sens prisonnier d'un immense jeu de drapeaux
je suis dans l'embarras aidez-moi
Take the money and go Johnny go...
Et j'ai vu le grand monde le petit et le gros
Survivre est une loi pour les rois de la riff
Attaque organisée des fuckés sur les ondes
Attaque organisée en 3 minutes 20 secondes
Je connais les pushers les plus drôles en ville
Et je connais aussi monsieur cigares Davidoff
Qui fume des barreaux de chaise à 60$ la pof
Mes amis, ameches, amigos and friends,
I'm pressing pause with the thought to send.
You see, I'm shaking up, breaking up a bet,
I'm the Bran Man cracking the dope of intellect,
With the fibre, to take you higher,
I'm swimming upstream from the downword spiral.
It's so weird...
You're sexist:
Right.
Peace out Mother Nature. Come up.
So if you're acting like life is a big commercial,
Stuffing your face until your tummy is full, full,
Wake up now, don't starve,
'Cause if you're sleeping I'm the wakeup call.
But who am I to holler?
I'm just rhyming for the dollar,
Staying retina on your wallet,
And your ring around the collar.
X, X marks the spot,
We cut our loses and we fuck up your market.
Well Bran Man comes correct,
A triple-decker high not to sound like heck,
I beckon: America unite,
And let your juices flow, As Liquid takes flight.
'Cause it's napalm for real that they have for the candy,
And every fucking day I'm told it's fine and fucking dandy,
So I'm watching 'em eat and then I'm watching 'em die,
So you can push a fucking button and let another child fly.
Cheetah comes as lightning,
Rolling, this thunder,
This microphone'll bury her,
From six feet under.
I'll step under like a lightning strike,
And I'll be smoothing everyday,
Always thinking, always liking.
So you're never gonna ease it,
For real you can't please him,
My finger on the mic and I'll be squeezing.
À vos marques, prêts, partez, allez go!
Sur le tempo de Johnny Go
Vêtue de mon kimono
Rouge, couleur des billets qui te font voir la vie en rose
J'ose sans regret me payer ta tête alors
Bouge
Bouge, alors cette fois
Avant que tu quoi-que-ce-soit
Car le guichet c'est moi
Automatique je ne suis pas
Je profite de l'argent
Mais l'argent ne provient qu'à temps partiel
Vis ta vie et économie
L'asiatique pique ta curiosité
Ne t'en fais pas
Je ne veux point t'acheter
Ta vraie richesse est intellectuelle
Bla bla bla, dis bien ce que tu voudras
La gravité sera plus forte que la mafia.
L'arrivée des médicaments moins chers
Soulage le consommateur français
La princesse Diana accepte le divorce
Les sept victimes additionnelles portent plainte un caca
Un caca de danois fait tout un plat en cour
L'homme au coeur mécanique a reçu son nouvel organe
Avion abattu, Cuba accepte l'enquête
Et les murs sont vides de ta douleur de tes couleurs et de ta parano
Tu me manqueras mais moi je repars survivre ailleurs
Adieu je t'oublierai au détour de la vie car il faut tout d'abord
survivre au ghetto
Je repars ma douleur pour moi seul je sais que tu ne seras plus là
Pour me soutenir au combat alors il fera trop froid
C'est pourquoi
Je take the money et je go
