MADVILLAIN - Strange Ways lyrics

[Cut:]

(They stay... Strange ways)

[MF Doom]

Wreak havoc, beep beep it's mad traffic

Sleek and lavish people speaking leaking to the maverick

He see as just another felony drug arrest

Any day could be the one he pick the wrong thug to test

Slug through the vest... Shot in the street

For pulling heat on a father whose baby's gotta eat

And when they get hungry, it ain't shit funny

Paid to interfere with how a brother get his money

Now, who's the real thugs, killers and gangsters?

Set the revolution, let the things bust and thank us

When the smoke clear, you can see the sky again

There will be the chopped off heads of leviathan

My friend, they call 'em strangers

Everybody talk to him end up in some danger

(They stay... Strange ways)

Can't reform 'em

They pray four times a day, they pray five

Whose ways is strange when it's time to survive

Some will go of they own free will to die

Others take them with you when they blow sky high

What's the difference? All you get is lost children

While abortion shit up behind the desk it costs billions

To blast humans in half, into captured arms

Only one side is allowed to have bombs

It's like making a soldier drop his weapon

Shooting him, and telling him to get to steppin'

Obviously, they came to portion of his fortune

Sounds to me like that old robbery/extortion

(They stay)

Same game

(Strange ways)

Ya can't reform 'em

[Outro/Cut]

..that Mary was goin' around with an old flame

that burned me up, because I know he was just feeding her a line!

But the guy really spent his money like water

I think he was connected, so I left

Outside it was raining cats and dogs

I was feelin' mighty blue... and everything looked black

But I carried on!
