Alltruisms - Clusterbombs Laos lyrics

Let's get that volume up! Oh that's a SICK beat, so sick, I love that Yeah! You mind if I get on that? [Alltruisms] Clusterbombs are like rappers, hundreds drop at a time We need enough spins to blow up, otherwise They'll sit in fields, until a child picks it up and it k**s 'em They gon' make hurt they ears hurt listenin to whack albums There's where the comparison ends and it's no joke Behind winding moutain roads and Mekong fishing boats Grown folks have to plant their land to eat Littered with bombs that can blow up whole families Legacy of our secret war in the other theatre They say it'll take a full hundred years to clear the land Of unexploded ordinance, UXO's, bombies Proxy American war still fightin the commies For the North Vietnamese their defense is the bad weather Kept cargo from targets, pilots couldn't land with it Which explains how statistically, Laos became The most heavily bombed country in human history One planeload every eight minutes for nine years Our Congress and our citizens had no idea While the village guerillas hid a decade, networks of smugglers caves The effort, the struggle, the strain Eight hour bus ride on my birthday, came there to learn Came to see the plated jars, huge funerary burns There we were in a field, Konkoyo from Senegal said don't step there That's not a dusty tennis ball It'll k** us all don't doubt it, some men are so poor They died trying to extract the gunpowder out of it And I found it discouraging, this town didn't deserve To be still dying from 30 years ago's counter-insurgency That accomplished WHAT, hopefully something Besides the CIA opium smuggling, were they smoking something? I can't digest it all, there'll be time later Alltruisms signing off for now Films from an Laos inside this bomb crater ("Feelin that, I'm so feelin that" - *2X*)
