Slow Bus Movin’ (Howard Beach Party) Lyrics


Born in the 1940s, my parents couldn't vote
X and king were on a march for power true
Black power that is panthers and their attitudes
Sport fresh new business suits, yeh, yeh, yeh !Stricken with determination to rise above a slave
The mayo men used firehoses
To spray the monkeys back in their cages
To spray the monkeys back in their cagesRound and around and around they go
The bus is goin' mighty slow
Brothers in the back seat
Caucs in the front
People gettin' hostile when I kill someoneWell the overlords thought it would be a good idea
To mix the black with the white
But if you're a fly in the buttermilk
They'll chase you all through the night
So go ahead and burn your cross and rape our women in the night
cause the day will come when your cream coated daughter is gonna be my wife

Fishbone is a long-lived, influential band, self-described as jazzy ska-gospel punk rock-reggae. The band was formed in 1979 in the ghettos of South Central Los Angeles, California, USA by Angelo Moore, also known as "Dr. Madd Vibe" (vocals, saxophones ranging from soprano to bass, and theremin); Kendall Jones (guitar); John Norwood Fisher (bass); Philip "Fish" Fisher (drums); "Dirty" Walter A. Kibby II (trumpet); and Chris Dowd (keyboards, trombone). The group came from the same Los Angeles scene that spawned the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Jane's Addiction.
