The Ramadan Lyrics by Daniel Emond

Kill The Whale (EP)

2017

[ALL]
In days of old
I’ve seen it all
In days of old
Remember those
Won’t take what’s coming lying down
Like days of old
(Look out, Q! What’d we do?!)
[QUEEQUEG]
Caliban!
[?] in the gourd is best
But if I gotta break it to you, break it over your head
My brothers are fled wrecks, appropriated or dead
Go suck your tooth on a [?] of knowledge instead
I’m on a tall, dark mountain with my African friends
A mountain of dread
Guess the shit they mounting up next
A crafty cracker be laughing at us n*****s taking a bath
And then they fastening the noose to Jim Crowe’s nest
Keep throwin’ that
I have spoke it
This life ain’t easy to live but damn if it’s easy to rap
You talk a sweet game ‘bout the strength of the American whaler
But with American sailors came you American slavers
God forbid your godliness would use American labour
We ain’t for refund, bitch! Ya’ll need an American saviour
Like a name who can grant us wings
So we can fly like a jailbird, freedom rings
[ALL]
In days of old
Some heavy shit
White devils said
“We’re heaven sent”
We let them in
And heaven wept
Like days of old
[QUEEQUEG]
We see, we cleave the sea, with the tell-tale needle
And please, don’t leave out the north star
That’s the most important part of knowing vaguely where you are
Sweet Harriet rode her chariot to the tune of the sky chart
By the same name
Speaking of names, “Q” ain’t mine, it’s Queequeg
Too many “Q”s and “U”s for fools these days
You wanna go? Wreck or go mine, I [?] though mine is coal, oh!
Give it up, chief mate!
But when you black there ain’t no second chances
I’m torn to pieces in a war between my circuitry
And my circumstances
Understand, son, Ahab, son, ain’t Absolam
All captives, my Captain
But this humpback, humpback, gon’ blast
Quit my verdant hills for verdant decks
My virgin queen got killed by fervent, murderous pain-in-my-necks
I’m a "people eater", baby, that’s what I get
First cupid I meet who [?], in ya head
Say, what’d you think? Sing!
[ALL]
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na ooh (x2)
[QUEEQUEG]
We got them whale spades
You got them shark teeth
This ain’t no waterspout, I’m in the jet stream
Stubb got that final bow, blow! The bounty for killing me
I’m every motherfucking sperm whale’s wet dream
Of all my brothers, Ishy-Mishy, you my white bruh
Though Captain Ahab’s heart beats psycho killer goldilocks
That monkey yo-yo ain’t no joke
But colder still the monkey-rope
Has got our mortal company locked in the joint stock
So take an oath now, while we taking it slow now
Cause in the teeth of the typhoon, you teeter-totter
Sure as thunder, mama’s daughter
We are the same shade in the shade of the equaliser
And when she blows over, our blindness won’t hide her
Eenie Mene, Mene, Tekel Upharsin, none the finer
We are another way divided
By this time it’s been decided who will die here
I apologise my [?] in spite of all united we sing
Forever, we fight, sing!
[ALL]
In days of old
I’ve seen it all
In days of old
Remember those
Won’t take what’s coming lying down
Like days of old, woah
[QUEEQUEG]
Don’t you agree?
[ALL]
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na ooh (x2)
