O Benjamin O benjamin, Eliiiiiijaah
You were my brothers from other mothers
best friends I had growing up
we've been down, for a long time
it's time for our spirits to rise up
Ben put his body in front of a train
never was heard again
all because he couldn't find a job
why do we make our world so hard
o benjamin o benjamin
it's time for your spirit to rise up
o benjamin o benjamin
we need your ghost to guide us
we've got to live for those who've died
we've got to show a little pride
every single suicide
is a martyr and a guide
o benjamin o benjamin
it's time for your spirit to rise up
o benjamin o benjamin
we need your ghost to guide us

Take a Knee
02:30
|

Take a Knee, can't you see? This is about police brutality
Sports aren't important or patriotism,
not like the lives of men women and children
People shot down, in the streets
you won't see that on your tv
get up off of your couch,
go down to the court house, scream and shout
black lives matter, of course they do
if you don't care it's because it doesn't affect you
All I want is peace on earth, I'm just asking for equality
All I want is peace on earth, all I'm doing is taking a knee
You say that I disrespect the flag, stand up shut up you uppity fag
We've got something called the constitution
freedom of speech is a real solution
I'm not just here for your entertainment
trying to hold up a mirror to this nation
you are the one who doesn't understand!
freedom of speech is what's great about this land
You can't have a free society, with racist public policy
all I'm doing is taking a knee
this is about police brutality
all I'm doing is taking a knee
I've got a right to freedom of speech
freedom of speech, taking a knee, this is about police brutality

Free Palestine
01:59

Free Palestine! Free Palestine! Occupation is a crime!
Ahed Tamimi slapped an Israeli
That don't outrage me, look at her history
checkpoints papers, bullied and abused,
houses destroyed, spirit bruised
She can see the ocean but she can't swim in it
unless she gets Israeli permission
Rather watch soccer or hang out with friends
but this bullshit occupation has got to end
Economic repression, an open air prison
people dying for no good reason
settlers stealing water and resources,
protected by Israeli forces
She was hit with tear gas so many times
it probably doesn't even make her cry
They killed her cousin Musab with a tear-gas can
shot in the head her cousin Mohamed
Killed her cousins Mustafa and Rushdi
but they still say the violent one is Ahed Tamimi
Stand up children everywhere!
War on Palestine was never fair.
Stand up children raise your voice!
Justice is the only choice.
Free Palestine! Free Palestine! Occupation is a crime!

My house is a mess, it's causing me distress
get the fuck out you fucking crackheads!
You stole my chainsaw and my girlfriends keyboards
get the fuck out you crackhead whores!
If I see you comin' through the window
I'm gonna hit you with something heavy
I may look like a harmless hippy
but mess with me, I can be deadly!
My house is a mess, it's causing me distress
get the fuck out you fucking crackheads!

Digital Tears
02:34
|

This is the neighborhood where they shoot you down in your front yard
my heart, my heart, my heart is bleeding will you cry for me?
Digital tears, digital tears, will you cry for me, will you cry for me
my heart, my heart, my heart is bleeding, so much blood everywhere
This is the neighborhood where they shoot you down in your front yard
my heart, my heart, my heart is bleeding will you cry for me?
Digital tears, digital tears, digital tears, digital tears
What's that you say, you had it coming
loud mouth you shoulda kept it shut
what's that you say you should be running
shoot you down, and you're little mutt
my ideas will never die, my ghost will stalk the land
exposing all your lies, from beyond the grave I'll lend a hand
you just made me 1000 times stronger
you have just made me a martyr
you just made your job much harder
you have just made me a martyr
my friends won't forget me
they're gonna make some people see
some day you'll know that I was right
and I didn't go down without a fight
digital tears, digital tears, will you cry for me, digital tears

Dirty Feet
01:09
|
|||
I have a hard time sleeping, sometimes I be weeping
secrets I be keeping, demons are a kreepin'
through my brain, cause I'm insane and I'll say it again
think I'm gonna lay low for a while
try to come up with a new style
See you another day, try to find a new way
something that's gonna pay, so I can be with you babe
wanna start a family, fit into society
but I know it's not for me, probably end up on the streets
the only thing you'll ever see, in the paper is my dirty feet.

This is the plot of, the movie Yojimbo
Directed by Kurosawa, starring Mifune Toshiro!
If the plot sounds familiar, it was stolen by Clint Eastwood and Sergio Leone
(For the movie Fistful of Dollars, it's exactly the same movie but in Mexico instead of Japan, color instead of black and white, guns instead of swords, and not as good)
He walks in to town, not one ryo to his name
(ryo is a japanese gold coin, he actually doesn't have any money at all he's completely broke)
Carrying only, his sword, his soul, and his fleas!
(Toshiro Mifune is really good at pretending to have fleas, he does the same thing in Seven Samurai, it's hilarious)
The town is controlled by, two vicious warring mafia clans
(Except it's Japan so they're probably called Yakuza but I don't know what Yakuza were called in Japan in the 19th century because I didn't research this song that well)
The plot basically consists of, Toshiro Mifune Kicking ass!
And the theme-song by sato masahararaaaa...uh.... goes something like this!
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Go Toshiro!
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Kick Some Ass!
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Kill all the Gangsters!
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Save the Town!
He uses his brain, as well as his brawn
playing one side against the other, that's how he saves the town!
(By destroying it and killing pretty much everyone except his buddy the innkeeper and a few other people)
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Go Toshiro!
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Kick Some Ass!
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Kill all the Gangsters!
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Fuck Clint Eastwood!

Wish I was a Kellogg's Corn-flake
Floating in a bowl taking movies
relaxing a while
living in style
talking to a raisin who occasionally plays LA
casually glancing at his toupee
