Somewhere in the World It's Midnight Lyrics


Somewhere in the world it's 3 o'clock
Time to get out of school and think
Somewhere in the world it's 5pm
And quittin time means it's time to drink
Somewhere in the world it's 8 o'clock
Let's get fly, man, and go to the gig
But somewhere in the world it's midnight
And the guerrillas just shot two pigsSomebody needs to bottle
This adrenaline
Throw death the middle fin
Stompin through your suburbs
Like coke, meth, and riddling
Streetlights and little sins
We fight for little yen
Despite the bitter end
And ignite carcinogens
This here's a little shot of
Can't-Be-Stopped

A lot o' Fuck-You-Pay-Me
A little Fuck-The-Cops
Cuz them parasites'll suck your wop
And bankrupt your flock
Chuck you overseas to duck the glock
And in the gallows of San Quentin
The officials were smitten
By the smooth, suave way
Which my initials were written
So they paid no attention
That the scribbled transmission
Read "Imma get outta here,
Pray I don't get ammunition"Somewhere in the world it's 3 o'clock
Time to get out of school and think
Somewhere in the world it's 5pm
And quittin time means it's time to drink
Somewhere in the world it's 8 o'clock
Let's get fly, man, and go to the gig
But somewhere in the world it's midnight
And the guerrillas just shot two pigsSometime the night falls just so
You can't see the scars
Discourse between the stars
Is dialogue of stolen DVD players and VCRs
I know a corner- if you say "cocaine"
They claim that you takin the lord's name
In vein
I cam to spit flames
Until this shit change
Until we switch games
The streets drown in pain
Now
Y'all might just drink and fuck to this
Let's knuckle up and deconstruct the shit
Imma show you what they dysfunction is
They need some nickel-plated acupuncturists
Vile and vulturous
Let's get tumultuous
And bring a multitude
To where their luncheon isSomewhere in the world it's 3 o'clock
Time to get out of school and think
Somewhere in the world it's 5pm
And quittin time means it's time to drink
Somewhere in the world it's 8 o'clock
Let's get fly, man, and go to the gig
But somewhere in the world it's midnight
And the guerrillas just shot two pigs

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Street Sweeper Social Club is an American rock band consisting of Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave) and Boots Riley (The Coup). Stanton Moore (Galactic) performed drums on their upcoming album. Their first known performance as "Street Sweeper" was at the Commodore Ballroom (2008-11-06), where they played a song called 100 Little Curses.

They have recorded their first album Street Sweeper Social Club, which was released on June 16th on East West Records.

- 'It's revolutionary party jams' says Tom Morello 'It's got huge steamroller riffs combined with depth, charge, funk, while Boots unloads clip after clip of incendiary rhymes rich with satire and venom'.

Riley added, - 'This is a time when the working class is being fleeced left and right. More families will be homeless and more people will be jobless. They'll need something to listen to on their ipods while storming Wall Street...'

Their official web site: http://streetsweepersocialclub.com/, features a track called Paper Planes

"The Ghetto Blaster EP" is an EP from Street Sweeper Social Club. The EP is released on August 10, 2010. It features covers of "Paper Planes" by M.I.A. and "Mama Said Knock You Out" by LL Cool J as well a remix of the bands second single "Promenade". They will also cover The Coup song "Everythang". It has also been confirmed that the full touring band has recorded on the album. Tom Morello spoke on the new EP in a press release, saying that they are shooting for an interesting combination of groups. "On The Ghetto Blaster EP we were shooting for a combo of the first Clash record and the Ohio Players greatest hits, interwoven with tractor trailer size riffs of course. This record definitely has more of a 'band' feel than the first, and Boots’ lyrics and delivery have never been sharper." Boots Riley has also said of the upcoming EP “We got a new EP that’s going to come out called The Ghetto Blaster EP. [You can expect] hard, hard, hard music and some raw as lyrics on top.”
