Dead Prez

Dead Prez - Animal In Man lyrics

Once upon a time

There was a very serious situation growing

There was a farmer and a farmyard filled with animals

And this is the story of their times

Verse 1

Old man Sammy had a farm

Walked the land with the wife

Most of the time shit was calm

His whole life was maintained off the everyday labor

from the mules in the field to the cattle in the stable

This is how we kept food on this table (maxing)

You would have he was disabled by the way he be relaxing

Acting like Mr. Magnificent

But the animals were thinking something different

The sentiment was tension in the barnyard

Throughout the years they had been through mad drama

with the farmer, word is bond

And they all came to one conclusion

They argued there was no way they'd ever be free

If it was up to humans

Therefore the only course left was revolution which was understandable

And since the pigs promised to lead in the interest of all the animals

They planned a full attack

Under the leadership of Hannibal

The fattest pig in the pack

The next morning on the farm

Everything was calm

Just before dawn

But before long

The sun got so hot it made the farm seem electric

Now check it

This is when that shit got hectic

Directed by Hannibal, the animals attacked

Old Sam was in a state of shock

And fell up on his back

And dropped his rifle

Reaching in vain

Each and every creature from the field at his throat

Screaming "Kill, feel the pain."

Chorus

This is the animal in man

This is the animal in you

This is the animal in man

Coming true (2X)

Verse 2

After they ran the farmer off the farm

The pigs went around and called a meeting in the barn

Hannibal spoke for several hours

But when talks about his plans for power

That's when the conversation turned sour

He issued an offical ordinance to set

If not a pig from this day forth then you insubordinate

That's when the horses went buckwild

One of them shouted out

"You fraudulent pigs, we know your fucking style!"

Hannibal's face was flushed and pale

All the animals eyes full of disgust and betrayal

He felt the same way Sam felt

They took his tongue out of his mouth

And cut his body up for sale, for real

You better listen while you can

Its a very thin line between animal and man

When Hannibal crossed the line they all took a stand

What would have done?

Shook his hand?

This is the animal in man

Chorus (4X)
