Lupe Fiasco - Animal Pharm lyrics
rate meQuiet as a kitten
Reply as silent as a Raphael-given instrument for sticking
Or maybe riot as a lion
Would he tie in tiger for attention?
Tiggers and Poohs, niggas and Jews
Mr. Opulent Christopher Robinson, too
Reversal like when that predetermined term expires on a turtle's life
What of Korea, are you scared?
Or is something not there, like a Welsh rabbit full of hairs
Animal farms and imaginary bears
The body is a house like a kangaroo pouch
Or an oyster-hoisted cow over crescent moons as it looms low in the night sky
Platoons of coons stand ready for the drive-by
Steady as the medley booms from the Akai
Affirm as in aye, aye, like it the second
Like a junior, like a third, like a eye
Like I observe from the view of a bird as it fly high
Sitting heavy like spaghetti in the belly of a wise guy
Who let these G's out the pi sty?
Seems they taking cues from The Wire
Ok decorum in keeping you from wanting to buy it
But you still buy it like you never left its sight
And like a slow gunfighter gun unfired
Cow dung walls, hermit crabs in the mall, sting ray from the stars and barnyard laws
Bizarre
Just ‘cause I got thumbs, that don't mean everybody is dumb
Just ‘cause I got one, that don't mean they not dumb
Quiet as a mouse in the House of God
In the jaws like tyrants in the mouths of mobs
Ripping it to pieces like a picture and a preacher
If a cricket was a speaker, it's its own chicken bones on the garbage can top
Ugly mother freakers is predator opposite on top of it to make it fox
So if similar appeal, administer the seal to make it real
Elephantine but never mind
Half ton gorillas in admittance, they'll never figh
Hungry as a hippopotamus, gobble it 'til your bottom and your body is as wobbly as Skrillex
… and piglets, blind bats nailing tails to a …
Time only limited if you make it
Blind rats nails hold tales of unseeing eye selves
Out is out, so they only seeing thy shells
Ghost Dog, oh lord
Bizarre
Hey they not dumb
I ain't smart just ‘cause I got thumbs, what, say what?
Hey, hey, just ‘cause I got one
That don't mean I'm better ‘cause they got none, say what, say what say what?
The butcher says to the bovines
You're all just pastrami when it's show time
Cowboy co-signs, attack the cat samples
Own worst enemies
Chop down the trees, we need the axe handles
Like a heel in a sandal saying hell no
Or you trapped like the yells of a nail in the shell-toe
Clever as a fishbowl on a sailboat
Landlocked as a ham hock on a railroad
Sandbox by the swimming pool
Two times as clever as a fishing school
Pills for the pressure
Broken seals on the pills for the pleasure
If you feeling ill, whatever
Animal farm, you're all dumb
Tickle 'em with your articulated thumb
A tapeworm will never play the drums, but uhm
These are, these are
Hey, hey, just cause I got one
That don't mean I'm smart ‘cause they got none
Am I not an animal ‘cause I got thumbs?
That don't make me smart ‘cause they got none, say what?
Here we come
Am I not an animal ‘cause I got thumbs, say what?
Say what, say what?
