Bird Flu

I fixed the grammar and capitalization issues for you:

Big on the underground What's the point of knocking me down? Everybody knows I'm already good on the ground

Most of us stay strong Shit don't really bound us Then I go on my own Making bombs with rubber bands

I have my hard down So I need a man for romance Streets are making em hard So they selfish little roamers Jumpin' girl to girl Make us meat like burgers When I get fat I'll pop me out some leaders

A protocol to be a Rocawear model? it didn't really drop that way My legs hit the hurdle

A protocol to be a rocker on a label? It didn't really drop that way Our beats were too evil

But I put away paper for later so I'm stable A better something better come So I could get cable Ghetto pops, food drops I store them in my stable I cook em up, pop 'em down Eat me it off ya a table

The village got on the phone Said the street is comin' to town They wanna check my papers See what I carry around Credentials are boring I burnt them at the burial ground Don't order me about I'm an outlaw from the badland

Put away shots for later So I'm stable Live in trees chew on feet Watch lost on cable Bird flu gonna get you Made it in my stable From the crap you drop On my crop when they pay you

i don't know but this song is crazy in a good way

ditto. but im sooo excited about hearing new mia. she rocks. i love this video. the little girl is so badass!

Amen! God, how cool it'd be to be "the little girl from 'Bird Flu'!"

this song sounds like cabaret spirateur by the les triplettes de belleville or atleast it just reminds me of it

I'm with tania,

plus i love how rebelious she gets... she's celebrating that she CAN record this no matter if she didn't get major label backing in the beginning.

I think it's a response to xenephobia to her lyrics... i didn't know about the american reaction to her, but that makes sense.. anything foreign is terrorist.

"The village got on the phone said the street is comin’ to town"

That's what she sees her message as, i reckon, the third world bringing their authority to the first world. The last lines have got a real sting to them

"bird flu gonna get you made it in my stable from the crap you drop on my crop when they pay you."

all that hype and paranoia about birdflu last year coming from all these far away places really shook some governments up. She's like saying that if it was manufactured, they almost had it coming, and it'd be made of the pollution suffered by third-world countries.

Her music is like that, their ignorance and neglect of foreignness that they like to call terrorist, is coming back to get them.

(Deforestation and dumping due to industry for FIRSTworld consumer products has the brunt of it's impact on the THIRDworld which creates it. )

Does somebody know what the children in the hook sing? it should be Tamil.

i think its about how ova here in america, dey be hatin n tryna stop wat shes doin, sayn shes a terrorist n all dat shit. yeah her beats was too evil but shes big on da underground so wats da point of knockin her down. her spreading is inevitable, like bird flu and wen it comes to bite u in da ass,(it meaning the truth spoken in her lyrics *bite u in da ass meaning being seen by da masses) it'll be well deserved bc of all da crap u droped on da crop wen dey paid u. ya diig
