Doin’ Things Lyrics by The Watts Prophets

The Black Voices: On the Streets in Watts

0

Keeping you doing things
Like watching TV, going shopping
Listening to the radio or a movie that’s supposed to be groovy
Stopping at a distributor, (poison?) like Jack in a Box
Listening to a fool in a box
Keeping you doing things
So you won’t have time to think
Machine niggers
With brains that have control on them
Programmed suckers
Black trying to be white
White trying to be black
Cause they know that’s where it’s at
Black, black
Keeping you doing things
So you won’t have time to think
Sisters with busted brains
Cause ? too tight
County check pimps needing help not getting where it come from
Babies’ mouths are just anywhere, weeping might ?
Fire niggers who leave starch for babies to eat
So these freaks can stay neat
Keeping you doing things
So you won’t have time to think
Weak sisters who go for anything like the Jamaican bomb
Fried ice cream, big in a sack, three ?
Let me have ? niggers sisters
That take birth control pills
PILLs PILLS PILLS PILLS pills pills
Keeping you doing things
So you won’t have time to think
