Who Are The Pimps?

Who Are The Pimps? - Boogie Down Productions

Stick up

All gnaw put your hands up in de air

And turn around with your face to the ground

Stick up

Here we go

Who are the pimps who are the pimps

Wimps sitting behind a desk

You only get a glimpse of the action or reaction

When you don't respond to them taxing

You f**k a lot when you're tax exempt

Like with the church the rules were somehow bent

The more money you make the more money you can have

You lose your mind after a while trying to just

Grab and grab and grab and grab and grab

Until the pimps roll around real mad what they say

Pick up that money h**

You done all the work but now a part of the show

You're a h** you pimped all around real fresh

Got letters on they chest spelling I R S

And they be taxing asking sitting back relaxing

Pimping Asian European blacks and Chicano

Hah hah but they can't pimp a wino

Why because a wino don't want nutting

Its when you try to get ahead they start front in

Capitalism the system of pimps and h**s

I'm sorry that's the way it goes

In this particular system every ones a slave

Racist is how they want us to behave

White johnny be fighting black Michael

Both are blind to the systems sick cycle

In a circle psychotically they slay each other

With a grin because of color of a skin

Pick up that money h**

Pick up that money h**

Pick up that money h**

Now we don't want to get you all alarmed

A little education never did you no harm

When Africa free the African will be free

Capitalism says were all in slavery

They're not looking at the color of a human brother

April 15Th they're looking at your mother

Pick up that money h**

You work all week and now your money has to go

To a pimp and its you that limp

They cut your check and take a tenth

Don't wanna hear no lip about support of family

Cause on a piece of paper that's a fantasy

They don't care if you're in a bad mood

Your wife needs shoes your kids need food

Uh uh pick up that money honey

The pimps so serious they're funny

They'll look you straight into your face

And tell you that your moneys going to a good place

Like social security or welfare

But if you go to the Bahamas you'll see them all there

Pick up that money h**

Pick up that money h**

Pick up that money h**

Pick up that money h**
