Amon Tobin - Basset Hound Anthem Lyrics

[Verse one]

A normal day for Steve
Involves him and Michael trying to get twenty dollars together to pay for a G
Pick up a ‘rillo at the Valero
And hit those ATMs, Head home
To get the spliff rolled
He’s smoked so many quarters of an ounce
That the cash could’ve paid the first mortgage on a house
Now he’s smoking on that Cali tree
He’s never out of weed
So every time you see him, he’s either high or about to be
It starts quickly:
A bottle’s worth of bennies
That’s some easy money when you’re unemployed, pushing twenty
Sharp as a machete, hot as the Serengeti
Top-heavy like Charlie O’Leary in the ninth inning
Lower the portcullis and rally the battalions
To gather where thousands of black stallions are galloping
Good people corrupted by bad company
You can kill the prophet but you can’t ignore the prophecy

[Bridge #1]

Basset hounds looking out for the po’s
In the back of the lounge up at Crocodile’s, yo
Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pass ‘em out slow
Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pass ‘em out slow
Basset hounds looking out for the po’s
In the back of the lounge up at Crocodile’s, yo
Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pass ‘em out slow
Put the cash in the couch ‘cause y’all know
(Y’all know)
Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pass ‘em out slow
Put the cash in the couch ‘cause y’all know
(Y’all know)
Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pass ‘em out slow
Put the cash in the couch ‘cause y’all know
(Y’all know)

Basset hounds looking out for the po’s
In the back of the lounge up at Crocodile’s, yo
Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pass ‘em out slow
Bag up the pounds, count ‘em, and pass ‘em out slow

[Chorus]

Woah, woah, woah
You don’t even want to know
What’s coming for you when I walk through that door
Woah, woah, woah
You don’t even want to know
What kind of future they’ve got planned for you, son
They’ll be giving you that foul work and pulling out ones
[Verse two]

He walks calmly but quickly through the commissary
Searching every cranny and nook for long rifle casings
“Get ready!”
Weapon upgrading and alternating
It’s only been six months since he got into slanging
Black beauties inside of the fridge
He takes it back to when he was a wide-eyed kid
Now fast-forward to the present day:
He self-medicates in a bathroom with strange woman wearing negligee

[Bridge #2]

(You are under my control now)
Back to claim the crown
Baby, we got that rush
Shit that’ll make these sheeple bow down when I give it to them
(You are under my control now)
Back to claim the crown
Baby girl bugging like “what?”
Shit that’ll make these sheeple bow down
When I give it to them

[Chorus]
[Outro]

And you don’t think that he can give it to them?
What makes you think that he won’t give it to them?
Ladies and gentleman, you’ve been a terrific crowd
Supermurgitroid, thank you
And please, folks
Tip your bartender, take home our 45
And please, come see us again here at Crocodile’s
Good night
