Lyrics

And they pull him out the gurney, and he said
I heard the album
I heard that goddamn white album
Why don't we do it the road?
What do you think he was sayin' man?
No one will be watchin' us!
And you're sittin' there goin', it's a fuckin' album!
Six in the mornin' police at my door
Dead body on the floor, from the night before
I called it a murder rap, cuz I bust a cap in the car
Left the body stinkin' on the bathroom floor
Out the back door, cops seen who done it
One homicide, so one man's wanted
Apb 187 suspect on the flee
Six in the mornin', and homicide I plea
They say her body's mutilated, can't get a id
Cuz I shot her in face, and took a hammer and bust out her teeth
Now I'm on the run, with a gun and a sledge hammer
Thinkin' to myself, I'd be dead if I'm in the slammmer
Ran down a dead end street, here comes the heat
Next thing I know, I have my face in the concrete
Now I got a court date, all the way up state
Prosecutin' attorney wait for my fate
Thirty questions are asked, and thirty answers are lies
And as the judge and jury look on, how do I plead to homicide
Time keeps on slippin', slippin'
You were on acid, manson!
Time keeps on slippin', slippin'
Don't you hear what he's sayin, man, hey, hey, it was the monkies
Time keeps on slippin', slippin'
And all I was thinkin' was murder one
Time keeps on slippin', slippin'
Yo, man, if I go to jail, I go to jail
As I approach the bench my shackles drag across the floor
Where were you on the night of question?
At the liquor store
They wanted me to tell the truth and nothing but the truth
I'll tell the truth only if you got proof
They ask me this, they ask me that
Then they switch the stuff up, and ask the same shit right back
But I got my shit together
I'm too clever
Have you ever worshipped the devil?
No, never. I said it once, I said it twice
I said it three times
Then they pulled out my file, and found all sorts of crimes
The victim's parents said the cops should have killed me
They ask me how do I plead
I say not guilty
They get angry, they wanna hang me
They call me the devil, and throw holy water upon me
Order in the court, it's gettin' out of hand
They got a eye witness and she's about to take the stand
Now I start to panic, the truth and my lies collide
How do I plead to homicide
Doo doot doot doo doo
Yeah guilty
Doo doot doot doo doo
Personally, esham, I think the black mother fucker is guilty
Doo doot doot doo doo
Guilty,guilty, guilty
I have this paper here, fuck it man
I'm innocent goddam it
Doo doot doot doo doo
All them kids listenin' to that goddamn esham
Fuck it, why don't we just electricute his ass
Doo doot doot doo doo
Yeah, let's do that shit, fuck his hoe ass
You know what I'm sayin, guilty!
The ninth witness to the stand said she saw me burnin' candles
The she heard a shot, and my hand was behind this handle
She seen blood-n-guts, and called the cops so
And when they came brain fried was all over the room
The judge and jury lookin' at me, like guilty
Then one jumped and said, filthy bastard
I'm like damn, can I get a goddamn break?
How much shit can one black man take?
But the judge is black and jury is too
All them lookin' at you know who
They ask me why did I do it, I said fuck you
Show me a throat, and I'ma cut the throat
I said the killing was a satanic ritual
Then they call me a sick individual
I drop my head, and try to plead insanity
Your, honor,as you can see, he is a threat to humanity
With no emotion in my face, I saw her family cry
And since I'm guilty that's how I plead to homicide
Time keeps on slippin',doo doot doo doo
Laid back like a dead fly
Time keeps on slippin',doo doot doo doo
It ain't no thang
Time keeps on slippin', doo doot doo doo
Time keeps on slippin', doo doot doo doo
Time keeps on slippin', doo doot doo doo
Time keeps on slippin', doo doot doo doo
Burn, I only got nine years left
Tick tock, doo doot doo doo
Tick tock, doo doot doo doo
