Boogie Down Productions - Who Are The Pimps lyrics

Your rating:

All gwan put your hands up in de air
 and turn around with your face to the ground
 Stick up!!!
 Here we go
 Who are the pimps? Who are the pimps?
 Wimps, sitting behind a desk
 You only get a glimpse of the action or reaction
 when you don't respond to them TAXING
 You fuck a lot when you're tax exempt
 Like with the church, the rules were somehow bent
 The more money you make, the more money you can have
 You lose your mind after a while trying to just
 grab and grab and grab and grab and grab
 until the pimps roll around real mad, what they say?
 "Pick up that money hoe!"
 You done all the work, but now a part of the show
 You're a hoe, you pimped all around real fresh
 Got letters on they chest spelling I, R, S
 And they be taxing, asking, sitting back relaxing
 Pimping asian, european, blacks and chicano
 Hah hah! But they can't pimp a wino
 Why? Because a wino don't want nuttin
 It's when you try to get ahead they start frontin
 Capitalism -- the system of pimps and hoes
 I'm sorry that's the way it goes
 In this particular system everyone's a slave
 Racist is how they want us to behave
 White Johnny, be fighting black Michael
 Both are blind to the system's sick cycle
 In a circle psychotically they slay each other
 with a grin, because of color of a skin
 "Pick up that money hoe!" (3X)
 Now we don't want to get you all alarmed
 A little education never did you no harm
 When Africa's free the African will be free
 Capitalism says we're ALL in slavery
 They're not looking at the color of a human brother
 April 15th they're looking at your mother!
 "Pick up that money hoe!"
 You work all week, and now your money has to go
 to a pimp, and it's you that limp
 They cut your check and take a tenth
 Don't wanna hear no lip, about support of family
 Cause on a piece of paper that's a fantasy
 They don't care if you're in a bad mood
 Your wife needs shoes, your kids need food
 Uh-uh, pick up that money honey
 The pimps so serious they're funny!
 They'll look you straight into your face
 and tell you that your money's going to a good place
 Like Social Security or Welfare
 But if you go to the Bahamas you'll see them all there
 "Pick up that money hoe!" (4X
