Chaka Demus

(album: Kings & Queens - 2009)

A lot of people around here lost the white in their eyes.
I see the lust inside your heart, so why don't you go and touch the sky?

Think with their head, argue with a gut,
Draft if you leave the door open it might encourage customers in,
Then I wish the barmaid shut, look like shit, down on my luck,
Two world wars and one world cup,
Screamed by the desperate divided crutch.
Used to have an empire then we grew up.
Lost everything — who gives a fuck?

Money in a jukebox, rocks all night
Same shit bands, too much hype,
Everyone knows, everyone sees fights, everyone drinks in the corner, right.
Everyone knows it's the 'C' blood type, saying we match, too much delight.
I love her, she loves me too, that's why we get together.

A lot of people around here lost the white in their eyes
I see the lust inside your heart,
I don't wanna touch the sky.

He's dizzy for Lizzy, I'm dizzy generally,
Scapegoated by a girl befriending me,
Not that I care, it's the only use of me,
She bounced off walls through doors
Pretend to be everything I wanna be and everything less.
I stress this guess, the part that we stressed
It's heavy, kinda heavy, on your lungs all down your spine,
Show up, pleurisy.

You're leaving alone but you came together,
Who made the sun turn stormy weather?

You're leaving alone but you came together,
Who made the sun turn to stormy weather?

A lot of people around here lost the white in their eyes
I see the lust inside your heart,
I don't wanna touch the sky.

She said tonight Jay, I'm gonna' teach them a ballad, an English man in every coward,
I was kinda impressed by the way she dressed,
I scoured this land to find a girl empowered,
Asked her again why her heart turned sour,
One of the ones that the boys devoured,
If you're gonna learn a song, you gotta sing along,
There's an English man in every coward.

I got money in the jukebox, rocks all night
Same shit bands, too much hype,
Everyone knows, everyone sees fights, everyone drinks in the corner, right.
Everyone knows their 'C' blood type, saying we match, too much delight.
I love her, she loves me too, that's why we get together.

A lot of people around here lost the white in their eyes
I see the lust inside your heart,
I don't wanna touch the sky.

A lot of people around here lost the white in their eyes
I see the lust inside your heart,
I don't wanna touch the sky.
