Lyrics

U Thin

VERSE:
If you step in dog shit, get mad at the master
The dog is only shittin’ on the ground like he has to
You can take a holiday and be the getawayer
Or be the ascetic in the temple with the prayer
Praying for the day that the gods ‘ll stop the killin’
But who will be the right from wrong and who will be the villain
Chillin’ ‘ll be my credo as I’m risin’ from the cradle
I’m getting’ souped up so I’ll serve you like a ladle

CHORUS:
OI! OI! OI! OI!

VERSE:
Come on and take a look at the Chinook that’s on my hook
Bein’ a typical human I gave less than I took
Bein’ a megalomaniac that’s drunk with the power
Trippin’ on the steps as I’m walkin’ up the tower
Lookin’ to the top at the eye that’s never blinkin’
But who’s gonna stop the ship we’re on from steady sinkin’?
Pre-determined destiny gonna keep us all guessin’
But I for one could never guess if we would learn our lesson

DJ SCRATCH

CHORUS:
OI! OI! OI! OI!

VERSE:
Just the other day I had the thought that made me shiver
Caught without a paddle in the middle of a river
The river is just a metaphor for how things are going
People are getting ripped off without even knowin’
Showin’ a piece of paper to the man in the line up
Make sure you read the fine print before you ever sign up
Sign your life away on a dime if they ask it
Work the day into the night and end up in a casket

GUITAR SOLO

BRIDGE: Middle East Melody

VERSE:
Tax evasion, welfare line
I’ve been tricked for the very last time
Times like this ‘ll be darker than a cave is
They’re gonna tell you what the proper way to behave is
But now they’re clonin’, makin’ you a double
Easily disposed with very little trouble
Tryin’ find your worth from the day of your birth
Controlled by the people who are rulin’ the earth
Maybe you should think about the people that you trust is
Maybe they’re the people you should turn around and fight
Next thing you know they’ll be calling it justice
Breakin’ down your door in the middle of the night
