[Verse 1: Tumi]
Aaaah
Bring out the marching band
Do me some Chinese Man
Shhhh
AaAAAaaah
Once upon a time in this great land
European settlers would set off on a cave man quest
Dutch king summoning Jan Van Beek...
The rest was Queen Elizabeth conquest
As portrayed quite well by Cate Blanchett
Great actress, wait I may digress !
Before that was pyramids and villages where pigmy little men and other such denizens rest
Complex systems of living some fishing some building and others out k**ing
Matriarchy where the kings were tribe women
Painted art still seen today in tribe Symbols
Its a cycle your beginning is your ending and your interim
Your appearance is a historic coincidence
But they link it to your incorrect conditioning
Now everybody screaming racism as a consequence
[Chorus: Tumi]:
Bring out the marching band
Let ‘em play an anthem for our continent
You went & botched the plan
Liberate the mind, but forgot the land
Bring out the marching band
Let ‘em play an anthem for our continent
Why you dun' botch the plan
Liberate the land, but forgot the man
[Verse 2: Tumi]
He bought a range but his aim's off for the plane
But it ain't take off JFK straight shot
Great Lakes paying for it, hate makes the air foggy
NSA takes notice, play it safe same result
So David Blane got the rainbow sold to y'all
You can rise away till the Neuralizer tapers off
Break a law, take a farm you get our your acres I'd sooner root for that than a handout with the arms embargo
It'll be my own Zimbabwe so Colin Powell will swallow my bow and arrow and follow that
With his strolls and angle to photograph
My a** know a power to recover from all of that, NASTY
All about poverty playing that off happy
Skin too thick in the middle tin o' acne cream or vaseline
You wait till them Somali kids
Give you a take from that Bruce Wayne alley scene
[Chorus: Tumi]
Bring out the marching band
Let' em play an anthem for our continent
You went & botched the plan
Liberate the mind, but forgot the land (*2)
