36) One Tin Soldier (3:15) [Math: samples, cuts, recorder, bass]
[Referent: Legend of Billy Jack; Funkadelic, Kyuss Sky Valley; PE “Don’t Believe the Hype”]

lyrics

[Math]: I got a Math problem: what’s 7 + 2000?/That equals the year when all thee lousy get doused in/I can’t put up with this behind the back conniving/I don’t take Ritalin for the sake of rhyming/Besides man I’ve gotten a shot in my arm/Not drugs when I bust I can’t let mind be calm/This is yr alarm: the volume might be jarring
Cos we’re getting louder, shot you select it when you feel/You know that NSFTM has got you jumping thru the ceiling/Cos we don’t allow frustrations to affect us for commercial/With the circle that we lurk in you know that we’re there for you

Keep it focused don’t sympathize, you can’t pay mind if you distract yr eyes
Look for demons that hide behind kind of like a sidewinder slides
Rotting corpse in lustful disguise, they’re tempting lies they offer a prize
But when war’s over who’s on yr side? & one tin soldier away he rides

[NSFTM]: Listen children to a story that wasn’t written long ago/Dropping verses in the basement for Tha Dungeon folk below/Up above they’re getting jealous saying we should change our sound/It’s still a treasure if not discovered so we’re staying Underground

[Math]: Captivity continually shut away out of mind
Can’t confine No Sunlite unsunburned we still shine
So the treasure trove no we don’t hide but we hold
Might be low to the ground tho it works won’t explode
But we certainly don’t allow it to turn gold
& glint for the sake of praise, sell ‘n’ be sold
So those who won’t know put their masterlocks on us
Shackle ‘n’ brace us so the flows back ‘n’ block up
But demons can’t demonize us stuck on bad habits
Only keep us under raps ‘n’ get the crowd to shout “Free Barabbas!”
Oh yeah I hear them screaming
So we’ll kick it into gear ‘n’ quit appearing as tho we fear them
For their threats from great depths don’t mean nothing
Cos our deaths will at least stand for something

[Big Dope Dub K]: I never really get what they’re talking about
But always know what they’re going to say
The more information I get bombarded with
It seems the less attention I pay
