Pyramid Scheme

Take a vow Take a vow of jealousy Falling strangers calling your name but Take a vow It never was you The one to come through You keep me subdued with painted tongues And I get darker as you get lighter And I get smarter as you get dumb I don’t mean to disappoint you But I won’t be your little guy Cause you know I’m gonna fight Through the sunshine and through the night I’m coming! War! Fee-fi-fee-fi-fo-fum I smell the blood of a Caucasian Be we alive or be we dead He’ll grind our bones to make his bread One day I saw one while climbing a tree He said, “I’m gonna let you in on my pyramid scheme.” I said “Thank you for the offer, but it’s not for me, see I’d rather be a man in the skin of a beast Than be a beast in the skin of a man And then he knocked me out Shake me from this wretched dream Staring at the great unseen We ain’t got nothing because nothing’s clean We ain’t got nothing because nothing’s free
