Bait the Bear Lyrics by Bob Vylan

Bob Vylan Presents The Price of Life (Deluxe)

2022

[Chorus]
Who wants what?
Bait the bear, lost the plot
Look what you got
Yeah, hit me with your best shot, uh yeah
Yeah, hit me with your best shot, baby
[Verse 1]
They say I'm violent (They say I'm violent)
Yeah I'm violent (Of course I'm violent)
This whole country's fucking violent
And it drowns me out in silence
What's that sound? Feels like a riot (Feels like a riot)
Yeah it's a hoot. Caribbean but I'm no fucking pirate (Nah nah)
Killing every Union Jack Sparrow I find on the island (Every one)
Hardly surprising: colonisers colonising (Hardly surprising)
From Jamaica to Lahore, stolen land and stolen diamonds
All achieved by violence, and like thеy're enlightenеd
[Chorus]
Burn it down. Who wants what? (Who wants what?)
Bait the bear (I'll bait the bear), lost the plot (I've lost the plot)
Look what you got (What you got)
Yeah, hit me with your best shot, uh yeah (Hit me with your best shot)
Yeah, hit me with your best shot, baby
[Verse 2]
Long locks (Oh la la), call me daddy
Yeah I'm tall dark and handsome, make this country wanna clap me
They can't stand me (Nah, nah)
Hate it when I have that bitch Britannia pull aside her panties
Slip in slow, and fuck the borders (Fuck the borders)
Arrive on rubber dinghy rapids, we survive the worst of waters
Curried lambs (Curried lambs) to the slaughter (To the slaughter)
But we won't go without a fight so fuck your law and fuck your order
[Chorus]
Let it burn. Who wants what? (Who wants what?)
Bait the bear (I'll bait the bear), lost the plot (I've lost the plot)
Look what you got (What you got)
Yeah, hit me with your best shot, uh yeah (Hit me with your best shot)
Yeah, hit me with your best shot, baby
[Outro]
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
It's a fascist regime
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
Wage war against the state
It's a fascist regime
