American Promise Lyrics by Sophi Piper

Love, Sophi

2008

[Intro: Roy Ayers]
More Action
More Excitement
More Everything
[Spoken: Sophi Piper + Roy Ayers]
Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen
Across space
Step right up and step off the train
The land before time
Welcome to America
All the freaks are here
All you have to do is make a promise
30 thousand millwatts of power baby
Radiating your souls
Sign right here, on the dotted line
C'mon getcha some free
Ladies and Gentlemen, before exiting the train
Please leave your valuables, diamonds, rubies and pearls
In the cabinet adjacent to the left
Um, the pussycats and the jackals you can leave them with me
I won't steal your gold
[Verse: Sophi Piper + Roy Ayers]
Promise to you baby, I'll love you tooth for tooth and eye for eye
Cause we take your history
And make it modern mystery
You see what I'm saying?
Welcome all
Promise to you baby, I'll love you tru and good till the day I die
Oh we love you (just sign right here)
We love to love you (Is it on hurt?)
Promise Promise American promise
We love to suck you dry (Oh no, freedom's here)
Promise Promise American promise
All the while, including your high(i just want some new lips, new hips C'mon)
Promise to you (money) baby, (sex) anything you want you know I'll buy
(it's the American dream, everyone has one, get one)
Promise to you baby, you will never have ask to me why
Excuse, Excuse me young lady, Excuse me
You're causing quite a distubance over here
I want everyone to see this
Promise Promise American promise
(does this mean we'll never see Mu again?)
I think we're gonna have to make an example outta her
Rid me of her sight
Promise Promise American promise
Freedom whatever, give me a, give me a brain tissue sample
Might be good for later, i might need that
Promise Promise American promise
Anyone else have any questions?
Promise Promise American promise
Promise I'll love you till the day I die
Promise I'll love you good and give you the sky
(well gon' give it to me then)
Promise I'll never love another guy
Promise I'll give you things that you can't buy
I'll give you my nose
I'll give you my toes
I'll give you my eyes
I'll give you my ears
I'll give you my hands
I'll give you my lips
I'll give you my tongue
I'll give you my thighs
Damn near anything you want
Do you see how easy it is
You see what we can do with a little bit of work
And effort people?
Promise to you baby
(I love america, such a beautiful place)
I'll love you tooth for tooth and eye for eye
OH, you think i can get a new uh...(i promise) heart?
(i promise, you give it to me, i'll give it to you)
This is the place where it all goes down (i promise)
Everything you could want
Everything you could desire, uh c'mon
Promise, Promise, American promise
Look mother, free radiation, right there
Hahoooo, i'm comin to America baby
Welcome!
OH, c'mon
Eh, eh excuse me sir, (uh yes, yes little girl)
Has anyone seen my 42 laws?
Oh, I'm sorry, we're not responsible for lost articles and thangs
Ok, so whenever he say a key word
Everybody just shout ON QUE
That's not science
Shhhh, shhhhhs, shhh, not spose to say...
