Overpowered By Funk Lyrics

    If you ain't reggae for it..funk out!
    No-one knocking at your door?
    Overpowered by funk? funk out!

    Combatative, repetitive
    Don't life just funk you out?
    Asanine, stupifying
    Can the clone line dry you out?

    Part of the swarming mass? funk out!
    Slugged by the new increase?
    Scared of the human bomb?
    Overpowered by funk? funk out!

    Buy dog food
    Rogue elephants
    Tarzan on a ticker tape
    Breakfast, serials?
    You know you can't escape

    Overpowered by funk
    Don't you love our western ways?
    Car crashed by funk
    Don't you love our western ways?

    Benny goodman, trial by jury
    A phone box-full of books
    Dustcarts and sunrise
    No-one gets off the hooks car crashed...
    Food for the hungry millions? funk out!
    Home for the floating people?
    Skin for the napalm victim?
    Overdrunk on power
    Funk out!

    The final game will be solitaire
    Overdrunk on power...funk out

    Picture frame, tickets here
    For the graffiti train
    People at home show you care
    Don't try
    Fry me in your shockin' chairs
    Funkpower over and out

    This is a message from futura
    Don't prophisize the future
    I liven up the culture
    Because i'm deadly as a vulture
    I paint on civilization
    It's environmentally wack
    So presenting my attack
    I'll brighten up your shack
    I'm down by law
    That's a fact
    Just give me a wall.
    Any building dull or tall
    I spray clandestine night subway
    I cover red purple on top of grey
    Hey, no slashing cuz it ain't the way
    The t.a. blew 40 mil they say
    We thew down by night
    They scrubbed it off by day
    Ok tourists
