(Woah, Woo)
(Ha, ha, ha, pick it up, pick it up, come on, yo, go
Ha, ha, ha, pick it up, pick it up, come on, yo)
Rebel alliance
Tunes dedicated to all her malcontents
Still shooting their mouths off
Don't ever stop
Yo
From the start to the end of this
I don't know where or what it is
That's driving us to doing this
I realize I run the risk
Of sounded cynical
But man it's a miracle
To make it through an interview
Without hearing political
Call it hypocritical
Knock yourself out
Forgive us for the lack of love affairs that we sing
About
If I'm making a statement by simply having a statement
To make
Then give me permission to clarify our position
We can't expect a thing to change 'cause we said how
But I can't be the only one with eyes in my head now
Some things that pa** me by (?)
Like seventy thousand people in Iraq are all dead now
Well that's exactly what we should be ignoring
He's mad just 'cause kids find all that kind of talk boring
Well alright wake me up if you've been hearing me
Snoring
There might be other places we've been waging a war in
Won't take the world with a protest song
Tell me something that I don't know
You can only clench your fists for so long
Tell me something that I don't know
Turn 'em off, coming on too strong
Tell me something that I don't know
But I think having a dream ain't wrong
Oh, I really think so
Wot? I only wanna set this straight
I'm not a communist because there's issues I don't rate
I'm not a f*****g hippy 'cause they're races I
Don't hate
I'm not a - easy tiger, we're in England, it's cool
Mate
There's obviously something in your head that's been
Wired wrong
If you care about something then talk about it on that
Song
Well point taken, it's all been done before
There's no money in raggacore we shouldn't bother any
More
As far as I can see it's up to we to want to try to
Make
A kinda difference, a minor kinda give and take
And if I change my mind it's all I leave behind then
Great
And you can carry on with writing all about it
What you wanna what you gotta never knock a mother
F****r for trying
Especially when you make a whole career out of lying
About the world so don't f**king tempt me!
And if that's too political than write to your MP
Won't take the world with a protest song
Tell me something that I don't know
You can only clench your fists for so long
Tell me something that I don't know
Turn 'em off, coming on too strong
Tell me something that I don't know
But I think having a dream ain't wrong
Oh, I really think so
We'll never turn away from having something to say upon
The new rhyme, oh oh
We'll never turn away from having something to say not in this lifetime
We'll never turn away from having something to say upon
The new rhyme, oh oh
Well this is Laila K, and we got something to say, and
This is our time
