Boots Riley - Ass-Breath k**ers lyrics

Y-y-y-you've got a** breath! {*scratched: "And now a word from our sponsor"*} You've got a** breath! You've got a** breath! You've got a** breath! {*"A word from our sponsor"*} [Boots] Some confuse a**-breath for strong halitosis It's been hundreds of years since the first diagnosis By the African doctor Mawangi Misoi Known in the states as Mr. Thomas' boy He found that preventing this affliction was lost With the mention of the phrase, "Um yessir boss!" When that phrase was uttered many stomachs would wrench Some jumped in the Atlantic to escape the stench He know that a**-breath came from kissin a** a lot To be the boss's knight-in-armor like Lancelot Doctor Misoi years later, before he was hanged Developed pills with the taste, of lemon merengue Made from ground gunpowder, of Haitian slaves And sweat from Seminoles who just wouldn't behave He tested first on young Nat from the Turner plantation Then sent a batch off to the French speakin nation It should also be noted a bottle of it was found In the clenched dead hand of the white John Brown Everytime it went 'round new people would find it They would take their essence, put it in and grind it In Russia, Africa, Asia too Mao Tse-Tung made the flavors new In Cuba, the people make new shipments Of this pill that is on the FDA sh**-list That is not recommended, to take befo' dinner When supervisin Presidents and such type sinners Take this pill and say what you wish you said It hardens backbones, they might wish you dead And it's not to be confused with courage juice Which we drank in chains and we still ain't loose These pills really should be taken in groups Cause a**-breath motherf**ers move with troops MLK took half a pill, procrastinatin Once he took a whole pill, they a**a**inate him Take Ass-Breath k**ers, to really get down Wherever rocks, fire, and struggle are found [Singers] When it's time to speak up and you can't make a sound Take the pills that'll make you kick the king in his crown Take Ass-Breath k**ers, to really get down Wherever rocks, fire, and struggle are found "Dr. Misoi's Ass-Breath k**ers" "You've got a**-breath" {*4X*} [Disclaimer] The makers of Dr. Misoi's Ass-Breath k**ers Are not responsible for corporate losses Or topplings of local regimes and/or governments [Boots] So you done took the pill, is it workin yet? (Nah; man is yours workin yet?) I think mine is about to start workin now There it goes "Hey what are you guys supposed to be doin?"
