TIME - Portobello Cloud lyrics

rate me

Whatchu gonna do when things go down

Whatchu gonna do when no ones around

Everyone's signed I'm running out of time

Thought I was a king, guess I was blind

My mirror wasn't clear so I wiped off the fear

Everyone's rich, I'm still here

They shake my hand but they don't give a damn

To my face they're a friend to my back they're not

Let me turn around you can see my knife collection

I don't have any weapons cause my enemies the second

So please don't smother me in confidence

I got commonsense plus there's enough nonsense on this continent

When you see that portobello cloud maybe you won't argue

Stop taking life for granted cause those bombs will char you

But go ahead complain, be negative and bitch

And try blaming yourself, instead of your government

Cause it won't matter who's the president or who's your father

It'll just matter who has the most guns and water

(that's right)

Whatchu gonna do when things go down

Whatchu gonna do when no ones around

Radio, airport, traffic jams, chaos

Cyborgs, reptiles, puppets and payoffs

No strings just a trail of money

No truth, just the media, couchs and dummies

Ears full of fear and bladders full of beer

Road rage, one night stands and parties

Nine to five o'clock shadows detentions and tardies

Stomachs full of fast food and piss smelled bathrooms

Reality TV dinners, primetime television

Preacher on a Sunday saying he's got the best religion

Energy drink, espresso, coffee and a latte

Overtime, no vacation, no breaks or off days

But when we see that shitaki cloud and that bright white light

We'll see we're all the same and we don't need to fight

Cause we'll all stop killing when the bombs drop

But until then I'm gonna keep hating my alarm clock

(peace, sing)

Whatchu gonna do when things go down

Whatchu gonna do when no ones around
