Mike Patton - Are You Down With It? lyrics

rate me

Are you down with it?

Are you down with it?

Are you down with it?

In the world,

that I'm in,

hand in hand,

across the land,

form a line,

in time,

peace of mind,

for all mankind.

Yeah right,

you know how it is,

and if not, here's a pop quiz,

who's gonna strike first?

what better for worse?

for that's us,

and you're either with us or against us,

so what if I shot up or kill or be killed,

an eye for an eye,

you're gonna get strung up,

like a PO-W,

M-I-A in Californ-I-A,

we're all going AWOL,

like fuckin a-holes,

and there's shit on the flag and blood on the rainbows.

What you want to do?

(x8: background vocals during above)

Buildin's fall,

afterall,

but we're still livin',

drop the bomb,

right or wrong,

but we're still livin',

turn the page,

all a rage,

are you down with it?

Keep on dreamin' on...

Dreamin on.

Buildin's fall,

afterall,

but we're still livin',

drop the bomb,

right or wrong,

but we're still livin',

close your eyes,

I'm surprised,

are you down with it?

Keep on dreamin' on...

Keep dreamin' on.

Are you down with it?

Are you down with it?

Peace and love,

one truth,

high above,

lonely are you,

one side,

one love,

one way,

which side are you on?

Ah...

I'm sick of the smiles, *the Destiny's Child and being lied to*,

I'm sick of the boys and the girls and being paid no mind to,

I gotta look out for number one,

that's me,

a man without a country,

who's lookin' out for me?

who's *carving* my name in a tree?

wouldn't be here without me,

wouldn't sleep here without me,

couldn't die in the street here,

in the land of the free,

gotta talk 'bout my styles and such,

and be all I can motherfuckin' be.

What you want to do?

(x8: background vocals during above)

Buildin's fall,

afterall,

but we're still livin',

drop the bomb,

right or wrong,

but we're still livin',

turn the page,

all a rage,

are you down with it?

Keep on dreamin' on.

Dreamin' on.

Buildin's fall,

afterall,

but we're still livin',

drop the bomb,

right or wrong,

but we're still livin',

close your eyes,

I'm surprised,

are you down with it?

Keep on dreamin' on...

Keep dreamin' on.

Are you down with it?

Are you down with it?

Da da da da,

da da da da,

da da.

(x8)

Are you down with it?
