Boots Riley - Wear Clean Draws lyrics
You know you're my cookie baby and you're too smart I can see it in the lines of your school art True heart I mean courage Expressed with care Go on draw them superheroes with the curly hair You're my daughter My love More than kin to me This for you and the woman that you finna be Tell that boy he's wrong Girls are strong Next time at show and tell play him our song Tell your teacher I said princesses are evil How they got all they money was they k**ed people If somebody hits you Hit 'em back Then negotiate a peace contract Life if a challenge and you gotta team up If you play house pretend that the man clean up You too busy with the other things you gotta do If you start something, now Remember, follow through Later on you gon' blossom like a lotus You'll get into boys and the boys gon' notice It don't matter who you do it with Just remember when I tell you baby you the sh** Handshakes are promises Lies can spoil it Words should be bond and seal Wash you hands after using the toilet Brush after every meal And also *Chorus* Wear clean draws Everyday 'cuz things may fall The wrong way You'll be lying there Waiting' for the ambulance And your underwear Got holes and sh** Wear clean draws Everyday 'cuz things may fall The wrong way You'll be lying there Waiting' for the ambulance And your underwear Got holes and sh** Pam can I get a little scratch right here? (yeeah) Pam can I get a little scratch right here? (oh yeah) Pam can I get a little scratch right here? (yeeah) Pam can I get a little scratch right there? (oh yeah) My boogie baby now The world ain't no fairy tale And it's ran by some rich white scary males To make it simple for you let's call 'em the bosses They take money while the people take losses Stole Black folds from Africa To work for free And we still barely get paid enough to eat That's what I told you I be saying in my vocals That's why the woman got the gun on the logo The star is the future That we gon' create Where nobody steal money from the things we make The revolution takes time and space But you as a woman gotta know you're place That's in the front baby I'm being blunt baby If the get mad say it's they time of the month baby Your face is just like the sun when it raises Thank you for adding beauty to my phrases Handshakes are promises Lies can spoil it Words should be bond and seal Wash your hands after using the toilet Brush after every meal And also *Chorus* Wear clean draws Everyday 'cuz things may fall The wrong way You'll be lying there Waiting' for the ambulance And your underwear Got holes and sh** Wear clean draws Everyday 'cuz things may fall The wrong way You'll be lying there Waiting' for the ambulance And your underwear Got holes and sh** Pam can I get a little scratch right here? (yeeah) Pam can I get a little scratch right here? (oh yeah) Pam can I get a little scratch right here? (yeeah) Pam can I get a little scratch right there? (oh yeah) Clap yo hands Clap yo hands Clap yo hands Clap yo hands Clap yo hands Clap yo hands
