In a faraway land we got shit made
Ray-Ban shades, warheads laid
Babies born in air raids
My girls run the Everglades
Indian tribesmen gamble spades
Indian chicks, they get men laid
Milk and honey, smoke high-grade
Gold and diamond, gems and jade
Ride up on our tanks, invade
Blow up thing to save our nam
Mina, Rina, Tina, Sabrina
Being a super Indian babe
We black market, we black made
We hit shit out when it rains
Would you come down and catch my train?
Would you run down and play this game?

Check my coat in and I paid the dollar,
Sidekick rings, “what’s up? holla!”
Text the address, I’ll see you later
Baby come down
Come down, come down, come down
run down, run down, run down
Run, make a run, make a run, make a run, make a run, make a run down
A dun da da dun da da dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on
A dun da da dun da da dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on

[Timbaland]
Baby girl
You and me, need to go to your teepee
The moon is full, and I’m shining.
Baby, I know you see me.
Put a hump or two on your back
Jst like that
Oh girl you’re on fire.
I don’t wanna be in love with you
Imma just break you off and say goodbye
The night is young
Don’t make me wait,
You just might miss your chance.
I’m gon’ tell you the truth
Timbaland, I’m the motherfuckin’ man.
Today’s the day, girl, let me get that
Don’t get mad
In fact, let me hit that
I’ve been overkilling them, I break backs
Come down, run down
Girl, where your place at?

[M.I.A.]
Check my coat in and I paid the dollar,
Sidekick rings, “what’s up? holla!”
Text the address, I’ll see you later
Baby come down
Come down, come down, come down

Run, make a run, make a run, make a run, make a run, make a run down
A dun da da dun da da dun da da dun da da dun dun

I’m trying to do my best
Get my head up out the stress
When the money turns the world
Your lovin’ turns to less

I learn by mistakes
Most of it is yours and
I’m done living life as a criminal
I thought I’d die young just to please the old
Now I teach the young, I’m victorial

The war in me makes a warrior
Like a pitbull gettin’ with a terrior
I’m better off in North Korea
Yeah, droppin’ from a barrel of a carrier

Coz I got enough to be more
It’s hard enough to get more
I shut the door on everything
Just to let my head blow

Picture this, a dull grey street in the train
Neon signs gonna shine though
Shorty you gonna shine though
Come up on ya treasure trove
Like the sun explode
Check up in the paper
In the mirror for ya horoscope

Walking on a tightrope
Go for something, I don’t even know
Where to get it from
Sending out a signal
Smoke from a gun blow
As I knock off knock off
Things that I don’t want.

Sick of all the shit that’s keeping me down
Dead from the waist down
It’s easy staying down
I never thought about it twice
But you do pay the price
It aint your weekly cash that feeds my mum the rice

Yo don’t be calling me desperate
When I’m knocking on the door
Every wall you build I’ll knock it down to the floor
See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain’t met me
See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain’t met me

Hands up
Guns out
Represent the world town

Look at what you did, you done it before
Every little dollar just keeps me down more
I never had you on my side bubbling on my side
Why they tell me different
When they make me explodified

Yo dont be calling me desperate
When i’m knocking on the door
Every wall you build i’ll knock it down to the floor
See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain’t met me
See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain’t met me

Hands up
Guns out
Represent the world town

Don’t forget to order M.I.A. - Kala!

Do you know that cost of a.ks
Up in Africa
20 dollars ain’t shit to you
But that’s how much they are
So they gonna use the shit just to get far

Is girls, diamonds
Helping you?
Don’t you like my bandanna?
My stains hang low
On my shirts like ay yai ay
Monkey brains and banana
I’ll hit you with my antana
I put soap in my eye
Make it red so I look raa

Ra ra
So I woke up with my holy quran and found out I like Cadillac
So we shooting till the song is up
Little boys are acting up
Baby mothers are going crazy
And the leaders all round cracking up
We goat rich we fry
Price of living in a shanty town just seem very high
We still like T.I.
We still look fly
Dancing as we shooting up
And lootin just to get by.

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head’ll collapse when there’s nothing in it
And you’ll ask yourself
“Where is my mind?”

War war war
Who made me like this
Was it me and god in co-production
My devil’s on speed dial
Everytime I take the wrong direction

All I want is one thing and that is what you got
Sometimes I go lose my mind then I feel numb

There’s 24 hours in a day
I used to spilt it 8, 8, 8
8 work
8 sleep
8 for play
Now I give it all it takes

People on the Internet
A new life for the intellect
People judge me so hard
’cause I don’t floss my titty set
I was born out of dirt like I’m porn in a skirt
I was a little girl who made good with all that I blurt
I put people on the map that never seen a map
I show ‘em something they ain’t never seen
And hope they make it back!!!!

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head’ll collapse when there’s nothing in it
And you’ll ask yourself
“Where is my mind?”

Rode the bmx we walked through the bush
The boys fight to ride it, but I just let em push
Keith stole an egg from a lil kookoo
Kept it safe in his mouth, while he danced the jookoo jookoo

There’s only one ocean that got fish left
One day we’ll have to be a really good chef
And I don’t mean us in the bush making meth
Boys if you catch meth you catch your death
When I said that Keith sneezed and had a chick
Broke the little egg in his mouth in little bits

When it’s hot we go down the river and swim
When we go fishing we ‘re catching a brim
When the rivers high we jump off the bridge
And then we go home and play some didge

Get your mitts on M.I.A. - Kala before it’s too late!
