TV on the Radio - The Wrong Way lyrics

Your rating:

  

 





Wake up in a magic nigger movie

With the bright lights pointed at me

As a metaphor

Teachin' folks the score

About patience, understanding, agape babe

And sweet sweet amour


When I realized where I was

Did I stend up and testify

Oh, fist up signify

Or did I show off my soft shoe

Maybe teach 'em a boogaloo

Busy playing the whore


Oh loiterers united

Indivisible by shame

Hungry for those diamonds

Served on little severed bloody brown hands

Oh the bling drips 

Oh the bling drips down 

Fallin' down just like rain


I don't wanna cast pearls to swine

I don't wanna march peacefully

No no no no no no no no no

New negro politician

Is stirring

Is stirring

Is stirring inside me

No there's nothing inside me

But an angry heart beat

Can you feel this heart beat?


Oh fear we're fallin' off 

Oh terror we're pained

Oh hunger we're stavin' off

Roasted vermin sustain...

This shit will have to sustain


Shootin' doves from off balconies

They wanna shackle the lame

By now you know their game


Little niña arose

Went to stand by her payphone

Waited for her caller to ring, said

Ask me anything


I just asked for Her

I just asked for her say so

And with permission

I'm gonna take liberty

And I'm tellin' you to take it too

'Cause it's right there in front of you


Hey, desperate youth!

Oh, blood thirsty babes!

Oh your guns are pointed

Your guns are pointed the wrong way

Your guns are pointed the wrong way
