“we can solve this problem with just one bullet”*
you better hope that they don’t think that too
we’re the only ones that gets to have the bombs
you better hope that they don’t think that too
my big ass god can beat up yours
hey, hey, hey
you better hope that they don’t think that too

i’m tired of being smooth
i’m tired of being nice
i’m tired of making it sound pretty
i want you gone like the wind
i want you gone like the wind
i want you gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.
hey…

ak 47, b-52
c-130 transport, f-16
since we’re talking numbers
since we’re talking letters
how about that 401k**

i’m tired of being nice
i’m tired of making it rhyme
i’m tired of making it sound pretty
i want you gone like the wind
i want you gone like the wind
i want you gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.
hey…

it’s the economy stupid
not all the brown people in the world
i don’t want a moron gettin’ this war on
“nucular” is not a word
i want a lot more readin’
and a lot less bleedin’
and “nucular” is not a word
hey…

i’m tired of being nice
i’m tired of making it rhyme
i’m tired of making it sound pretty
i want you gone like the wind
i want you gone like the wind
i want you gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.
