Lyrics

[00:07.39] If you don't like the news then press eject
[00:08.95] Baby Davis getting older can't take a rain check
[00:10.64] It's time to let'em know what we expect
[00:13.27] Stop building SUV's strung out on OPEC
[00:15.89] Hold up wait up you know we come correct
[00:18.15] You wanna change things up, well hey just get set
[00:21.02] It's easier to sit back than stick out your neck
[00:23.45] It's easier to break things than build it correct
[00:26.21] We've got a president we didn't elect
[00:28.39] The Kyoto treaty he decided to neglect
[00:30.40]
[00:30.96] And still the US just wants to flex
[00:33.33] Keep doin' that wop we gonna break our necks
[00:35.58] It takes a second to wreck it
[00:37.96] It takes time to build
[00:42.02] You gots to chill
[00:43.64]
[00:48.40] Hate filled people wanna keep us in check
[00:51.33] Tearin' down each other is what they expect
[00:53.77] If you want love well hey that's a bet
[00:56.33] We've got to give before we can get
[00:58.52] Waiting like a batter who is on deck
[01:01.21] When it's time to wreck shop then shop I'll wreck
[01:03.89] So let's calibrate and check our specs
[01:06.39] We need a little shift on over towards the left
[01:09.27] I don't really know but I suspect
[01:11.14] I think it's due time that we inspect
[01:13.71] How they get their information and their facts are checked
[01:16.46] Another press conference someone's talking out their neck
[01:18.89] It takes a second to wreck it
[01:22.02]
[01:23.46] It takes time to build
[01:25.08]
[01:28.58] You gots to chill
[01:30.14]
[01:41.96] So step up to the window and place your bets
[01:44.46] Is the US gonna keep breaking necks
[01:47.02] Maybe it's time that we impeach Tex
[01:49.27] And the military muscle that he wants to flex
[01:51.96] By the time Bush is done what will be left
[01:54.46] Selling votes like E-pills at the discotheque
[01:57.02] Environmental destruction and the national dept
[01:58.77]
[01:59.27] But plenty of dollars left in the fat war chest
[02:01.90] What the real deal why you can't connect
[02:04.52] Why you hating people that you never met
[02:07.14] Didn't your mama teach you to show some respect?
[02:09.58] Why not open your mind for a sec?
[02:12.15] It takes a second to wreck it
[02:14.71] It takes time to build
[02:16.27]
[02:19.02] You gots to chill
