LUPE FIASCO lyrics : "Animal Pharm"

[Verse 1]
Quiet as a kitten
Reply as silent as a Rafael-given instrument for stickin'

Or maybe riot as a lion
Would he tie in tiger for attention?
Tiggers and Poohs, ^!$$%s in jewels

Mr. Opulent Christopher Robinson too
Reversal like
When that predetermined term expires on a turtle's life

What of Korea, are you scared?
Or is something not there, like a Welsh rabbit full of hairs
Animal farms and imaginary bears

The body is a house like a kangaroo pouch
Or an oyster-hoisted cow over crescent moons as it looms low in the night sky
Platoons of coons stand ready for the drive-by

Steady as the medley booms from the Akai
Affirm as in "Aye aye"
Like it the second

Like a junior, like a third, like a eye
Like I observe from the view of a bird as it fly high
Sitting heavy like spaghetti in the belly of a wise guy

Who let these G's out the PI_STY?
Seems I'm taking cues from The Wire
Okay decorum, and keeping you from wanting to buy it

But you still buy it like you never left it's sight
And like a slow gunfighter gun: unfired
Cow dung walls, hermit crabs in the mall, sting ray from the stars and barnyard laws

These are

[Hook] [Atoms for Peace sample]

Hey hey, just cause I got thumbs, that don't mean everybody is dumb, huh huh?
Just cause I got one, that don't mean that they got none, what what?


[Verse 2]
Quiet as a mouse in the House of God
In the jaws, like Terrence in the mouths of mobs

Ripping it to pieces like a picture and a preacher
If a cricket was a speaker, it's it's own chicken bones on the garbage can top
Ugly mother freakers is predator opposite on top of it to make it fox

So if similar appeal, administer the seal to make it real
Elephant time but never mind
Half-ton gorillas in admittance, they'll never find

Hungry as a hippopotamus, gobble it 'til your bottom and your body is as wobbly as Skrillex
Eeyores and Piglets, blind bats nailing tails to a riblet
Time only limited(ed) if you make it

Blind rats nails hold tales of Unseeing Eye selves
Out is out, so they only seeing thy shells
Ghost Dog

Oh lawd
These are


[Hook 2] [Atoms for Peace sample]
Hey they not dumb
I ain't smart just cause I got thumbs, what, say what?

Hey hey, just cause I got one
That don't mean I'm better cause they got none, say what, say what say what?


[Verse 3]
The butcher says to the bovines
You're all just pastrami when it's showtime

Cowboy co-signs, attack the cat samples
Own worst enemies
Chop down the trees, we need the ax handles

Like a heel in a sandal saying "hell no"
Or you trapped like the yells of a nail in the shell-toe
Clever as a fishbowl on a sailboat

Landlocked as a ham hock on a railroad
Sandbox by the swimming pool
Two times as clever as a fishing school

Pills for the pressure
Broken seals on the pills for the pleasure
If you feeling ill, whatever

Animal farm, you're all dumb
Tickle 'em with your articulated thumb,
A tapeworm will never play the drums, but um

These are
These are

[Hook 3] [Atoms for Peace sample]
Hey hey, just cause I got one

That don't mean I'm smart cause they got none
W-what, w-what
Am I not an animal cause I got thumbs?
That don't make me smart cause they got none, say what?
W-what, w-what

Here we come
Am I not an animal cause I got thumbs, say what?
Say what, say what?
