Flobots - Whip$ And Chain$ lyrics

Your rating:


Strange fruit I roll up in my ford taurus 

Emissions I wont pass like Gandalf at Moria 

Way out of order 

Sedan with four doors 

Pull out garage and lost side view mirror 

My credit card final fantasy breaks the limit 

I just paid just brakes to break my lemon 

Wont make enough juice for my pessimism 

So I'm not for given 'till my debts forgiven 

Skim off the top 

Convertible roofs 

Thinking spanish 



Green sounds like the truth 

Got it on lock jaw to the tip o' the tooth 

Way I floss no dental insurance to boot 

But my chain hangs low, I could double dutch 

Keep my eyes to the floor so don't stumble much 

I shine at night from all the carrots 

'Cause it's not who you are but who you're wearing 

Stay sportin lashes from the old massa's 

Clasps on the neck says 

'Property of the masses' 

And whats under the chassis 

The block is gentrified while the governor's classic 

Don't know who the boss is do I hold the power 

Or am I powered like horses 

Whip is blowin' out my back like I'm exhaust-ed 

Pipes blowin' more fire than pentecost 



Who killed o? 

Why and what's the reason for? 

Who starts homicidal wars? 

Rich man poor man either or? 

Who shows us what we knead? 

Who's got the bread for the luxuries? 

Who told us it's ingrained? 

We who hold these whips and chains 



If there's no lock who needs a key? 

When did we stop being free? 



I see things vis a vis a sea change 

Full fathom five people became remains deep beneath chains 

We pay into easing these pains 

'Cause the history is difficult 

Wish the results could be flipped like reciprocals 

Allow me to renumerate aloud the typical rude awakenings of the drowsy consumer base 

Bass boom will make the crowd sing and syncopate with the views that they're espousing 

Synchronize to the stupid take a thousand 

Sinning like every excuse they make is valid 

Simon Williams I Wonder Man 

Just how did our oil get under their sand? 

And how did our homes get onto their land? 

And how did our foes get guns in their hands? 

Conflict diamonds 

Child labor tennis shoes 

Genocide energy 

Gentrified gin and juice 

Slave trade banks 

Rape-based internet movies 

What's a simple straight-laced human to do 

With a strange fate twist and fame 

Except talk shit and name off a list of gains 

But do you realize I'd find my lips in flames 

If I tried to take pride in these whips and chains 



Who holds these 

Who holds these 

Who holds these traps and circuses 

We want it 

They own it 

So we're going half-berserk for it 

Let's take it 

Let's take it 

Let's take it back before cassettes 

Pepsi cans and packs of percocet 

1910 all the factory workers said 

Yes we can demand a weekend 

If we can get the man to weaken 

So if you're ready than send a beacon 

To be continued and to begin 

We can't be content to steep in the anaesthesia 

Invisible hands of phantoms depend on 

Ya fantasies have been poisoned 

But we've got the panacea!
