TV On The Radio - The Wrong Way

Wake up in a magic nigger movie With the bright lights pointed at me As a metaphor Teachin' folks the score About patience, understanding, agape babe And sweet sweet amour When I realized where I was Did I stend up and testify Oh, fist up signify Or did I show off my soft shoe Maybe teach 'em a boogaloo Busy playing the whore Oh loiterers united Indivisible by shame Hungry for those diamonds Served on little severed bloody brown hands Oh the bling drips Oh the bling drips down Fallin' down just like rain I don't wanna cast pearls to swine I don't wanna march peacefully No no no no no no no no no New negro politician Is stirring Is stirring Is stirring inside me No there's nothing inside me But an angry heart beat Can you feel this heart beat? Oh fear we're fallin' off Oh terror we're pained Oh hunger we're stavin' off Roasted vermin sustain... This shit will have to sustain Shootin' doves from off balconies They wanna shackle the lame By now you know their game Little nina arose Went to stand by her payphone Waited for her caller to ring, said Ask me anything I just asked for Her I just asked for her say so And with permission I'm gonna take liberty And I'm tellin' you to take it too 'Cause it's right there in front of you Hey, desperate youth! Oh, blood thirsty babes! Oh your guns are pointed Your guns are pointed the wrong way Your guns are pointed the wrong way
