Rage Against the Machine

Here we go 9-5 is the blood for your sweat Pay the landlord, he's taking your blood for the rent Yo The balance dead so a bullet's what I get When my Mao-Say-Tung gets offensive like Tet The whip snapped my back My spine cracked For tobacco I'm the Marlboro man Can I make London bridges fall If they do me like Mumia Abu-Jamal Nobody move Nobody move 86 Philly pigs drive a whole city block And I'm campin' like Hampton Read the word of the innocent Yet death row is locked Capitol lie Yes I'm check the wrong rhythm And so they say let Saigons be Saigons But wait a Ho-Chi-minute Waste the day 'cause the night brings a hearse Make a move and plead the fifth, Ya can't plead the first Are you ready to testify? Get ready to testify Are you ready to testify? Get ready to testify The revolutionary aesthetic Black leather, beret and powder blue However meanacing this human form on the outside looks Without revolutionary aesthetic It's ever so transglucentit's ever so translucent I stand admist grandeous gestures Postures and platforms of romanticism Creating more noise than answers Creating more noise than the sirens That keep our children crouched in corners I sit and watch us do the blind man's dance And i can't stand the smell of false composure So i take a Ho-Chi minute to meditate And think And then tune to the word of Jose Matin Doing is the best way of saying Doing is the best way of saying Doing is the best way of saying Doing is the best way of saying 9-5 is the blood for your sweat Pay the landlord, he's taking your blood for the rent Yo The balance dead so a bullet's what I get When my Mao-Say-Tung gets effective like tet The whip snap my back My spine crack Front to back Ohhh what a Marlboro man Can I make London bridges fall If they do me like Mumia Abu-Jamal Nobody move Nobody move 86 Philly [pigs drive a whole city block And I'm campin'] like Hampton Read the word of the innocent Yet death row is locked Capitol lie Yes I'm check the wrong rhythm And so they say let Saigons be Saigons But wait a Ho-Chi-minute Waste the day 'cause the night brings a hearse Make a move and plead the fifth, Ya can't plead the first Doing is the best way of saying Doing is the best way of saying
