Check it out like living legends Def Jux if you don't know now you're informed, be better informed for the next time this shit goes down, because when it's happening and you're unaware you look like a complete ass hole.


Every leader dead and its making you upset.
La da de dah da da, La da de da da da dow dom
set, set, set...
Every hero dead and its making you forget.
get, get, get.
La da de dah da da, La da de da da da dow dom.


I'm in and out a pig channel serrated by hand feeders
Army of vicious kidney patrol yam peelers
They sleep in barns and whisper looney conspiracy secrets
Increasing payroll to end is blind a.w.o.l. went the leaders
The only marrow officially banned from food chain confer
Finishing for over 25 consecutive years on top is aggravating,
Alarmingly the pulse don't bump right
He's up nights bumping over crunk and bug bites.
Who luck lite this evening
Stay electric mud blood jockeying for the footing
My last supper starts with a filling grit over pickled muppet hearts
While sheep tucked deep in the wood chipper
For the shepherd was a milk carton and scissors
Clammy hands make [???] on a risky Jenga terms
They're all sweating
Hell I'm sweatin' too
Just ain't nobody sweatin' you!
The muck went [???]
Cause on labor perspirator official biz
When auditioning demos by which to live
No whammy, stop
Triple six game never chose me
Trickery it's hoagie
Pick up sticks and ponies
You've got mail champ, blow me
Just trooper with a question mark
Machine needy
Pointed at the heavens like a Bee Gee
On some "where the hell's my freebie"
To clamp war, stupid
No landlords or supers
No hands
Water, no ice cubes, [???]
No plants
No motor movement
No dance
No pyrotechnics to enhance
No chance
Too many grown men calling sick over cramps

I weigh in heavy on the jaded bitter subtract an infernal gimmick
I wanna solve world hungry and fuck a pinup
I wanna find a 21st century carpet crutch worthy of pedestal placement and shitty path walking [???]

I'm the baddest motherfucker touchin' down on these drums
Every leader dead and its making you upset.
La da de dah da da, La da de da da da dow dom
set, set, set...
Drums, drums drums...
I'm the baddest motherfucker touchin' down on these drums
Every hero dead and its making you forget.
get, get, get...
La da de dah da da, La da de da da da dow dom
Drums, drums drums...

Ain't no time to sit and lift stones
So, it's left to the dogs to find their way home
And you grew up in a similar generation alone
With a fistful of humanoid models all on the role
With a blank in your ancient
Fuck if I can find a flesh and bone tour guide to edge me through the makeshift
Every little footprints faded and vacant
Now I stomp through this motherfucker impatient

For the first time in a long line of dog fights
Little Lassie will not be returning home tonight
They're saying someone Everclear spiked the punch bowl of christ
But all I saw was six pits [???]
Lot lizard lung
[???]
Where the lemmings run with scissors
To the closest open jaws, pause
Open the fucking door Hal
[???]
I will not bow to a god that I can't look in the face

See forked tongue and a janky ankle
He stood, escorted Eeyore to sea floor, thank you
Please curb your [???]
Alto spaz, alcatraz to the peace corps [???]
Any sheeps word, any sheep for [???] shoulders to leaaaan towards
[???] consecutive awkward moments
Like "god the inhalers stuck and elevators broken"
One could reach the ceiling panel boosted by the other, but
Suddenly suffocating doesn't seem all that stubborn
Is you with it
[???]
No doubts with her walking stick
Cross the [???] peel back [???] with broke posture
But a daily [???]

When the promised land abortion of keepers and bleeding orphans
Where only the maggots creep outside the box to seize the fortress
I and my crew seek an informal enforcement passage
After receding a timeline laced with [???] packages
Come on baby act with us, who
The other activists
Refusing to pour dummy accusations to the aqueducts

These are the days
When the [???] part ways
Trying to convince the players to fuck the game, but

We don't wanna trouble you
We take "no" for an answer if and only if enhanced with "k" and "w"
We're only warning kitten paws who went escorted through the jungle zoo
This little industry will buckle you

I'm the baddest motherfucker touchin' down on these drums
Every leader dead and its making you upset.
La da de dah da da, La da de da da da dow dom
set, set, set...
Drums, drums drums...
I'm the baddest motherfucker touchin' down on these drums
Every hero dead and its making you forget.
get, get, get...
La da de dah da da, La da de da da da dow dom
Drums, drums drums...

Murs (spoken):
You know, Aes Rock, you know you been waiting, like, how long? He got flow, you saying he was better back then. I've heard this shit, it's killing anything he's ever done. So shut the fuck, love it like you know you want to. Don't be a little bitch. Little bitches get slapped in their mouth. And that's how it happens, every time. You keep listening because maybe you'll learn something, yea. By the way, Can Ox is not broken up, it's just rumor.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
