Amon Tobin - Ba**et Hound Anthem lyrics

[Verse one] A normal day for Steve Involves him and Michael trying to get twenty dollars together to pay for a G Pick up a ‘rillo at the Valero And hit those ATMs, Head home To get the spliff rolled He's smoked so many quarters of an ounce That the cash could've paid the first mortgage on a house Now he's smoking on that Cali tree He's never out of weed So every time you see him, he's either high or about to be It starts quickly: A bottle's worth of bennies That's some easy money when you're unemployed, pushing twenty Sharp as a machete, hot as the Serengeti Top-heavy like Charlie O'Leary in the ninth inning Lower the portcullis and rally the battalions To gather where thousands of black stallions are galloping Good people corrupted by bad company You can k** the prophet but you can't ignore the prophecy [Bridge #1] Ba**et hounds looking out for the po's In the back of the lounge up at Crocodile's, yo Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pa** ‘em out slow Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pa** ‘em out slow Ba**et hounds looking out for the po's In the back of the lounge up at Crocodile's, yo Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pa** ‘em out slow Put the cash in the couch ‘cause y'all know (Y'all know) Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pa** ‘em out slow Put the cash in the couch ‘cause y'all know (Y'all know) Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pa** ‘em out slow Put the cash in the couch ‘cause y'all know (Y'all know) Ba**et hounds looking out for the po's In the back of the lounge up at Crocodile's, yo Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pa** ‘em out slow Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pa** ‘em out slow [Chorus] Woah, woah, woah You don't even want to know What's coming for you when I walk through that door Woah, woah, woah You don't even want to know What kind of future they've got planned for you, son They'll be giving you that foul work and pulling out ones [Verse two] He walks calmly but quickly through the commissary Searching every cranny and nook for long rifle casings “Get ready!” Weapon upgrading and alternating It's only been six months since he got into slanging Black beauties inside of the fridge He takes it back to when he was a wide-eyed kid Now fast-forward to the present day: He self-medicates in a bathroom with strange woman wearing negligee [Bridge #2] (You are under my control now) Back to claim the crown Baby, we got that rush sh** that'll make these sheeple bow down when I give it to them (You are under my control now) Back to claim the crown Baby girl bugging like “what?” sh** that'll make these sheeple bow down When I give it to them [Chorus] [Outro] And you don't think that he can give it to them? What makes you think that he won't give it to them? Ladies and gentleman, you've been a terrific crowd Supermurgitroid, thank you And please, folks Tip your bartender, take home our 45 And please, come see us again here at Crocodile's Good night
