Tom Morello - Scars (Hold That Pose) lyrics

[Intro] Drop it! Lock it! Load it! Hold it! [Verse 1] Had a car with stuck doors and primer finish To take a girl out I had to climb her in it She really hoped her friends didn't find her in it When she wanted two drinks, I said "Mind your limit" Show up at the party, new suit and Stacy's Very next day, return it back to Macy's Say "It smells like sweat sir, is you crazy? Gimme my refund or push up daisies!" Me and two friends used to share a pager So every three days I would swear I'm major 'lectricity from the next door neighbor Broke motherf**ers be sharp as lasers I was mo' to' back than a stolen car tag Just used somebody else's card for the bar tab A dollar hot dog wasn't nuttin to bark at It's only funny cause you don't see where the scar's at [Hook] (Scars!) Hold that pose (Scars!) Hold that pose (Scars!) Hold that pose (Scars!) Hold it, smash it! [Verse 2] Got free cable cause I know somebody Got some broke partners that'll throw somebody Not pickin up the phone cause I owe somebody Got a twamp note I'mma photocopy A date with me was all kinda fun Go to the restaurant, dine and run The bank might keep declinin 'em But these hundred dollar checks, I'm signin 'em The rubber on my sneakers used to flap when walkin It looked like two little muppets talkin "Ay, wha**up baby? Do you come here often? Oh, I got some new shoes - they haven't been brought in This old ripped jacket is cause I am an artist I'll burn rubber on you if my car will get started" The third month avoiding landlords is the hardest It's only funny cause you don't see where the scar is [Hook] [Bridge] Welfare checks, food stamps Collection notes, broken amps Paycheck late, shut off notice Pyramid schemes, hocus pocus Welfare checks, food stamps Collection notes, broken amps Paycheck late, shut off notice Pyramid schemes are hocus pocus Hold that pose, hold that pose Hold that pose, and don't ever come down Hold that pose, hold that pose Hold that pose, and don't ever come down Breakdown [Hook] [Outro] Drop it! Lock it! Load it!
