All you people up there in city hall
You're fuckin' it up for the people that's in the streets
This is a song for the people in the streets
Not the people city hall
All you motherfuckers in the streets it's time to rise up
Come along children and fuckin' rise!
Lots of times when me and kg are watchin'
All the fuckin' shit that goes down at city hall
We get the feeling we should fuck shit up
Yeah we should fuckin' start a riot
A riot!
We have 'em screaming in the streets
We have 'em tippin' over shit and breakin' fuckin' windows of small businesses
And settin' fuckin' fires!
And settin' fuckin' fires!
And settin' fuckin' fires!
And then after the smoke is cleared
And the rubble has been swept away
Me and kg will peek out our heads
We've been watching the riots on a monitor twenty floors below sea level
From a bunker
We did it rage-kage, we beat the bastards of city hall!
But now what will we do?
We must rebuild. But who will lead us in the rebuilding process?
Man, it's got to be someone with the know-how
And the elbow grease to lead us to a new land
No, not me and kg, we don't have the cognitive capacity to lead...
Alright, we'll do it!
We'll lead as two kings
We'll lead as two kings
Ahhhaaa (two kings, we'll lead as two kings)
Ah-ha ah-how
We'll lead as two kings
The first decree is to legalize marijuana
The tyranny and the bullshit's gone on too long
You old fuckin' shrivs who blocked it's legalization
You're banished from the land!
We'll lead as two kings
We'll lead as two kings
Ahhhaaa (two kings, we'll lead as two kings)
Ah-ha ah-how
Lead as two kings
The second decree: No more pollution, no more car exhaust
Or ocean dumpage. From now on, we will travel in tubes!
We'll lead as two kings, oh, yeah
We'll fuckin' lead as two kings
Get the scientists working on the tube technology, immediately
(Tube technology.) chop, chop, let's go
Third decree: Ao more... rich people: and poor people
From now on, we will all be the same... Ummm, I dunno
I gotta think about that...
We'll lead as two kings
Ah yeah, ah yeahhhahahaha.
Ha-ha-ho-hee, ha-ha-ho-hee-ha-ha-ho-ho-ho-ho
Oh my god
Ahh... What?
Dude, the red phone is flashing
Oh, yeah
Let me scoop that up? Tello? two kings
Who is it?
What?! No! no fucking way!
What?
Rage, there's a potato famine in idaho, you gotta go down there!
Oh my god... What?
Dude, I gotta stay here!
Why do I have to go?
Please! Please!
Oh, god, okay
Awesome..? As he gone? alright, emergency meeting of parliament
All right parliament, I know this is fucked up
But rage, he can't be king anymore
Dudes, he's encroaching on my decrees
Seriously, let's make him "duke," a kick ass "duke."
Or "leader formerly known as king," but-- uh-oh he's comin' back...
We'll lead as two kings, oh yes
We'll really lead as two kings
Uh, dude?
Rage.
I went all over idaho...
Yeah?
Uh, plenty of potatoes everywhere
What? There was no famine?
Yeah, there was no famine, no
Dude.
I don't know what's uh...
A toast...
A toast...
Long live the "d."
Long live the "d."
Long live me. I'm sorry, I poisoned your wine
What?
For the good of the land
You p-- I poisoned yours... Huh heh, as well
Noooooooooo!!!!!
No!
City, city, city, city, city, city, shitty
Shitty, city, shitty, shitty, city, city, shitty
Hall, hall, hall, hall, hall, hall, hall, hall
People inside me are askin' me to smoke up city hall
'Cause no one here is talkin'
People inside me are askin' me to blow up city hall
'Cause no one here is rockin'
People inside me are askin' me to blow up city hall
'Cause everyone is rock-'em sock-'em robots
Everyone is rock-'em sock-'em robots
Everyone is rock-'em sock-'em go! Oh!
Don't, cut that part out
We've got it
Um, do you believe in god?
I believe, I believe
You do?
I believe in god. I believe in god.
(Laughs)] y'do
I believe in god
Do you?
I believe in god
