Flobots - The Effect

lrc by Jermen

It's the F-L-O-B-O-T-S

What did you expect?

You wanted us to move you right to left

Live and direct

It's like

1, 2, 3, 4

Butterfly wing flap, whole thing change

One look, two different books, same page

Front on the range but the beat's contage

Stuck to your feet for 3, 4 days

It's real, too real like film projectors

Bend the letters to find the nectar

It is effective, it will protect ya

From them specters, don't let 'em get ya

How did they escape the rat race?

How'd he make that sound with that bass?

The roof is ablaze so break the glass case

Song so big, affect the tax base

Don't drink the potion, split the ocean

Holy Moses, Pharaoh's forces

Let my people go with purpose

Turn the tide with forward motion

How does it feel to un-glue?

Where do you think we've come to?

What does it take to follow through?

Who is it making you move?

Heavens to Murgatroyd

The situation's purgatory

Brer Rabbit stories, burn categories

The allegory is Adam's story

On the eve of something glorious

Us against them won't bust the system

But trust the pistons, the engine's mis-spent

Our thrust is intense, combustive intent

Boom Jonny 5 better yet Juan Cinco

Rhetoric rep for my Colorado lingo

Whatever preterit's wet by my ink flow

Is spelled out B4

Get it?, because I never get outwitted

Bold-faced type, all capped like a fitted

We'll make you move even if you're arthritic

Something you thought I wouldn't do, I did it

How does it feel to un-glue?

Where do you think we've come to?

What does it take to follow through?

Who is it making you move?

It's the F-L-O-B-B-B-O-T-S

What did you, what did, did you expect?

You wanted us to move you, move you right to left

Live and direct, you ride the effect

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

It's a quilombo with Kenny O on the drum roll

We rocket like Dikembe Mutombo

Djembe to bongo to MPC

We unload and win MVP

So let's be old fashioned, put the beat on blast

And leave a lil' something like a geocache

And if anybody wanna smurf with me

We can take this to the nursery

Like hickory dickory, rhyme so slippery

This emcee, that emcee, wish they could switch currencies

Like a battery, disbelieve flattery

Realistically, it can just be a smattering

To sit and watch the needle peak with Mario C

Reppin' CO and 303

(Speak up, girl)

Even if it's what's they're against

Do the Helen Keller and confront male arrogance

How does it feel to un-glue?

Where do you think we've come to?

What does it take to follow through?

Who is it making you move?

It's the F-L-O-B-B-B-O-T-S

What did you, what did, did you expect?

You wanted us to move you, move you right to left

Live and direct, you ride the effect

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La

It's the F-L-O-B-B-B-O-T-S

What did you, what did, did you expect?

You wanted us to move you, move you right to left

Live and direct, you ride the effect
