Who Are the Mystery Girls? lyrics
All gwan put your hands up in the air
And turn around with your face to the ground
Stick up!
Here we go
Who are the pimps? Who are the pimps?
Wimps, sitting behind a desk
You only get a glimpse of the action or reaction
When you don't respond to them, taxing
You, fuck a lot when you're tax, exempt
Like with the church, the rules were somehow, bent
The more money you make, the more money you can have
You lose your mind after a while, trying to just grab and grab
And grab and grab and grab, until the pimps roll around real mad
What they say? Pick up that money, hoe
You done all the work, but now a part of the show
You're a hoe, you pimped all around, real fresh, got letters on they chest
Spelling I, R, S and they be taxing, asking, sitting back, relaxing
Pimping, Asian, European, Blacks and Chicano
Hah hah, but they can't pimp a Wino
Why? because a Wino, dont want nuttin'
It's when you try to get ahead, they start frontin'
Capitalism, the system of pimps and hoes, I'm sorry
Thats the way it goes in this particular system
Everyones a slave, racist is how they want us to behave
White Johnny, be fighting Black Michael
Both are blind to the system's, sick cycle
In a circle, psychotically they slay each other
With a grin, because of color of a skin
Pick up that money, hoe
Pick up that money, hoe
Pick up that money, hoe
Now we don't want to get you all alarmed
A little education never did you no harm
When Africas, free the African will be free
Capitalism says, were all in slavery
Theyre not looking at the color of a human brother
April fifteenth, they're looking at your mother
Pick up that money, hoe
You work all week, and now your money has to go
To a pimp and its you that, limp
They cut your check and take a tenth
Don't wanna hear no lip, about support of family
'Cause on a piece of paper that's a fantasy
They dont care if you're in a bad mood
Your wife needs shoes, your kids need food
Uh uh, pick up that money, honey
The pimps so serious, they're funny
They'll look you, straight into your face
And tell you that your moneys going to a good place
Like social security or welfare, but if you go to the Bahamas
You'll see them all, there
Pick up that money, hoe
Pick up that money, hoe
Pick up that money, hoe
Pick up that money, hoe
All gwan put your hands up in the air
And turn around with your face to the ground
