[00:00:01] Written By：Franklin James Fisher/Lee Tesche/Ryan Mahan

[00:00:36] They said it's not enough

[00:00:40] Just to shoot us down

[00:00:44] It's a sound that's systematized

[00:00:47] It's a noise just to drown us out

[00:00:51] But when your time is come

[00:00:54] We'll all be there

[00:00:55] Just to watch you fall

[00:00:59] And then one by one

[00:01:01] All the parasites will just fall off

[00:01:07] You put your vote in a ballot box

[00:01:10] This one's marked undp

[00:01:14] Inscribe your

[00:01:15] Tyrant's name in blood

[00:01:18] Choice is the guillotine

[00:01:24] We'll put our faith into afro pop

[00:01:27] In a decolonized context

[00:01:31] Espouse the aesthetes'

[00:01:33] Contempt for ethos

[00:01:35] Irony utility pretext

[00:01:38] But all you can say

[00:01:39] Embrace primitive man

[00:01:41] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:01:42] Destroy primitive man

[00:01:44] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:01:46] Embrace primitive man

[00:01:48] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:01:50] With our art

[00:01:51] We'll transcend again

[00:01:54] Embrace primitive man

[00:01:55] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:01:58] Destroy primitive man

[00:01:59] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:02:02] Embrace primitive man

[00:02:03] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:02:05] With our art

[00:02:06] We'll transcend again

[00:02:24] You put your hand out to shake

[00:02:28] Then they export you in chains

[00:02:31] You fought

[00:02:32] For centuries for change

[00:02:35] And they gave you

[00:02:36] More of the same

[00:02:39] They swapped the dogs

[00:02:40] And the cross

[00:02:43] For sublimated forestalling

[00:02:47] They changed the names

[00:02:48] Of the boss

[00:02:50] Until you forgot who it was

[00:03:10] Find your favorite color

[00:03:12] So you can wash it out

[00:03:14] In your hymns

[00:03:17] Correcting primitive cracks

[00:03:19] Into straight lines

[00:03:21] Superiority is born again

[00:03:24] We'll put our faith into afro pop

[00:03:28] In a decolonized context

[00:03:32] Espouse the aesthetes'

[00:03:33] Contempt for ethos

[00:03:36] Irony utility pretext

[00:03:39] But all you can say is

[00:03:40] Embrace primitive man

[00:03:41] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:03:43] Destroy primitive man

[00:03:45] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:03:47] Embrace primitive man

[00:03:49] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:03:51] With our art

[00:03:52] We'll transcend again

[00:03:55] Destroy primitive man

[00:03:56] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:03:59] Embrace primitive man

[00:04:00] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:04:02] Destroy primitive man

[00:04:04] La-la-la-la-la you say

[00:04:06] With our art

[00:04:07] We'll transcend again
