"Death Of A Profiteer" lyrics

Boss man said he ain't got enough to go around
But he got bread he don't want you to know about
He took it from the sick and the poor
Now his plate full and he ain't never gon' dough it out
Ain't no shock that buddy got got
How could he be stopped?
Well, fuck it, that's how
Spent our whole life looking up at that spot, then drop
Now he looking up at us now

And I'm sure he'd agree that murder ain't good
But death is okay, sometimes (sometimes!)
As long as a loss can create a gain
For someone who needs that, right?
So we can agree? (huh? what?)
So we can agree! (okay!)
Sometimes a death is a need
For you it was money, for us it was just to be free

Ain't that funny?
(Ain't that funny?)
Not so fun when the tables get turned
Ain't that funny?
(Ain't that funny?)

See the boss man's bread goes straight to the law man
Law man says, "I can make a couple calls, man"
Boss man says, "Now, we can have it all, man!"
Then they both laugh, what a real good system!
If the biz requires a victim
Guess what? Then the biz shouldn't be here
Your denial of claims and a ludicrous price will kill ten thousand just this year
See the boss don't know what it's like to be broke, and what he don't know just killed him
If you ain't want smoke when our backs to the ropes
Then you should've thought of that when you billed them

Maybe I'm being too crazy... maybe I'm not crazy enough
Lotta folks be taking their life
Just when they're boutta speak up
Something bout that timing is weird
Something bout that timing is strange
Don't make me pull up their names

So it's fine when you blow the ones with a whistle
But we hit back, suddenly we got an issue
Never before have I seen the opposition move so fast
Just to catch a man with a pistol
Maybe they were shocked that we aimed so high, when we normally aim across the aisle
And the minute they think, we think that we're on the same side
They lose their smile, huh...

Ain't that funny?
(Ain't that funny?)
Not so fun when the tables get turned
Ain't that funny?
(Ain't that funny? Ain't that funny?)

I guess music and life really ain't so different
Looks like we both need a hit, man
If you big leagues don't stop acting like fools
You gon' end up on someone else's list, man
