Sublime
40oz. to Freedom
1992
1: Waiting for My Ruca
"punk rock changed our lives" (dog barking)good boy, good boy, good boy
On the East side,
that's where I met my Ramona,
"I wanna go to a party,"
that's what she said,
"Lonely, that's what i've been,
here's my telephone number call me"
and to a party, a house party,
whole loop a people just rally 'round me
and love, she send a message of love
she said
"I love up the way you move, I love the way you rap"
(bo, bo)
Ramona please step back
now she's my Ruca, I'm barely waiting for my Heina.
2: Get Out
"It's 8:05, this is Phillis in the office. The cat is out on the patio. If this happens 1 more time, your butts are in the street. I am sick and tired of your activities, and your cat, and your untruths with me. I'm going to call you tomorrow, when your home, and you better explain a lot of things to me because I'm sick and tired of your bull-shit. Good night."
My place, is not a home.
It don't make no difference, but I have found
that I need a place to stay
I never listen what the landlord man say
You should have seen all the flops in my house
They was jumping on walls and kicking ceilings
Nowadays people listen to me,
when I say...'GET OUT!'
Hold me, and don't let go
it don't make no difference that your a ho
Because I need a place to stay
although disease was just the price I paid
In days of old thats how it used to be, oh yes indeed.
That girl is dead to me now, and I sing...'GET OUT!'
(scratchin')
1,2,3,4
lemme bust a freestlye then (NWA)
fuck you man (Scarface)
I gotta bone to pick (Geto Boys)
So sit, don't trip,
Im cuttin hits like Bert Susanka's got the shrimp dip.
I get it, get it, get it, get it, all the time
the people want to know the meaning of the word Sublime,
it's anarchist, man it's the shit you missed,
we get the minute man loops and add a PEN1 twist,
cuz we know you love the pit ,
but this is the shit, that you put in the box And say damn it's a hit,
and to all the radios and the tv shows
cause we don't kiss no ass or kick down free shows,
what you get is the kind, no gank, no cess,
when yellow lover on the d-r-u-m-s
Well let the lovin take a hold over me,
Let the lovin take a hold over me,
(Follow me Long Beach Posse)
Cause all I see is your fussin' and fightin'
1992 so lets all start uniting
Put your hands together be the best you can be
Let this jam take us to 1993
to stay positive,
the love will come back to me.
3: 40oz. to Freedom
You got your hair permed,
you got your red dress on,
screamin' that second gear was such a turn-on.
and the fog forming on my window
tells me that the mornings here
and you'll be gone before too long...
Who taught you those new tricks?
Damn, I shouldn't start that talk...
but life is one big question when your starin' at the clock.
...and the answers always waiting at the liqour store 40oz to freedom
so I take that walk
And I know that
ooohhh.... I'm not goin' back
ohhh, not going back
ohh, God knows, I'm not going back
oooohhhh, not goin'
(Hey man, anyone wanna make a run down to am/pm with me? It's like quarter-to right now bro. shit, can you like, loan me like, a buck or two dude? Jai said he was gonna be here around 2:00 I havn't even seen him. just totally broke, man owes me twenty bucks man. get over it, fuck, sorry! I'm not dealin' with that fuckin chince no more. take those bottles back Eric?)
And you look so fine
when you lie, it just don't show
but I know which way the wind blows
A 40oz to freedom is the only chance I have
to feel good even though i feel bad
And I know that
ooohhh.... I'm not goin' back
Ohh, I'm not goin' back
Ohh, God knows, I'm not going back
Ohhh, I'm...not goin'
ooohhh....I'm not goin' back
Ohh, I'm not goin' back
Ohh, God knows, I'm not going back
Ohhh, I'm...not goin'
I got a whole one left in the freezer
Go and wake the town, tell the people the news,
ohh, hey, tell them reggae music is on the loose.
here I am like a ragin' storm
with a brand new style and a unique fashon.
(sung at same time)
I am from the place where the sun keeps shinin', shinin'
and good good vibes, that keep on playin', playin'
Them a fire one shot for peace, eqality
come, come, thema come with a rougha stylee
come, come, thema care about you wicked stylee
come, come, if ya come with your wicked stylee
Thema fire one shot-
pump pump lick-a-shot,
thema fire two shots
pump pump lick-a-shot,
thema fire three shots
pump pump pump lick-a-shot,
thema hear about me rock
with me armor
when they start counterreact with me armor
thama launch an attack with me armor
coutnerreact with me armor
when they start counterreact
when me am bigger
Hear me copy
tell you about this wicked stylee
People wanna come up and they wan' tell me:
smokin' crack cocaine better than sensi.
your're puffin' that shit yo we're sick of it!
tweakin' every weekend and we just can't take it.
whoa-oh, we no wan' plastic!
4: Smoke Two Joints
(she was living in a single room with three other individuals. one of them was a male and the other two, well, the other two were females. God only know what they were up to in there. and furthermore Susan, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that all four of them habitually smoke marijuana cigarettes... reefers)
I smoke two joints in the morning.
I smoke two joints at night.
I smoke two joints in the afternoon, it makes me feel alright
I smoke two joints in time of peace, and two in time of war
I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints,
and then I smoke two more
smoked cigarettes 'til the day she died
toke a big spliff of some good sensimillia
smoked cigarettes 'til the day she died
toke a big spliff of some good sensamill..."
"Easy-E were ya ever caught slippin'?" "hell no!"
Daddy he once told me "son you be hard workin' man"
and Momma she once told me "son you do the best you can"
but, then one day I met a man who came to me and said
"hard work good, and hard work fine but first take care of Head"
(guitar solo)
whoa, rock me tonight,
whoa-oh, Jah sake,
whoa-ohh
5: We're Only Gonna Die For Our Arrogance
Early man walked away as modern man took control their minds weren't all the same to conquer was their goal So he built his great empire and he slaughtered his own kind He died a confused man killed himself with his own mind
Early man walked away as modern man took control their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal So he built his great empire and he slaughtered his own kind He died a confused man and he killed himself with his own mind...LET'S GO!!
Early man walked away as modern man took control their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal So he built his great empire and he slaughtered his own kind He died a confused man and he killed himself with his own mind...LET'S GO!!
Early man walked away as modern man took control their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal So he built his great empire and he slaughtered his own kind He died a confused man and he killed himself with his own mind...LET'S GO!!
Early man walked away as modern man took control their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal So he built his great empire and he slaughtered his own kind He died a confused man and he killed himself with his own mind...LET'S GO!!
we're only gonna die from our own arrogance
that's why we might as well take our time
6: Don't Push
Stolen from an Africa land,
chased out with a knife
with a face like
Bob Marley
and a mouth like a motor-bike
Oh well the bars are always open,
and the time is always right
and if god's good word goes unspoken
the music goes all night
and it goes..
If I was Bob Marley I said could you be loved?
and if I was Half Pint I'd ball lord up above
If I was Mike Tyson I'd look for a fight
If I was a boomtown rat I would be stayin' up all night
If I was the King Ad-Rock I would get stoopid dumb
and if rhymes were valiums I'd be comfortably numb
If I had a shotgun, you know what I'd do?
I'd point that shit straight at the sky
and shoot heaven on down for you
Because the bars are always open
and the time is always right
and if god's good work goes unspoken
the music goes all night,
and it goes
I want a lover but I can't find the time
I want a reason but can't find a rhyme
I want to start some static but I can't afford
to get slammed to the ground like I fell off my skateboard
hey
Now a days is clear as you please
strap with protection or struck with disease...disease
laughter, it's free
anytime just call me
439-0116
When your down with Sublime
you get
funky fresh lyrics.
Stolen from an Africa land,
I'll chase that other bar,
I saw my best friend tonight, so, don't push me too far
I'm gonna run
come down with the new lyrics
get hit, get hip,
don't slip you knuckle heads
racism is scism on a serious tip
you don't belive me then I go on bust your lip
Higher the mountain, it hard to climb
rougher the rhythm man, it must be Sublime
listen yellow lover yet it right on time
we got cricket with the quickness and the bass line...
7: 5446 That's My Number/Ball and Chain
Do you believe I would take such a thing with me, and give it to a police man? I wouldn't do that, mmhmm, I wouldn't do that
if I did that would you say "sir come down and put the charge on me?" I wouldn't do that, oohhh, I wouldn't do that
I'm not a fool to hurt myself, But I was innocent to what they done to me.
they were wrong, they were wrong
but give it to me one time (ohh give it to me,yeah!)
give it to me - two times (1, 2)
give it to me three times (1, 2, 3)
give it to me four times (1, 2, 3, 4)
Oh, 5446, was my number, was my number now, Right now somebody else has that number
(one more time)
5447 was my number, was my number now, Right now somebody else has that number
'cuz we're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night,
we're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night,
hear the dub, hear the beat, in the dog pound,
DJ, "Lord have his grilled cheese"
some jealous punk, snuck up around my back, tried to take a lovin' over me; Lord I got into a fist fight, and wound up in jail all night
give it to me one time (ohh yes, ooh my pussy)
give it to me - two times (1, 2)
give it to me three time (1, 2, 3)
give it to me four time (1, 2, 3, 4)
people listen up don't stand to near I've got somthin' that you all should hear all lies all the lies all the lies told to me make a little part of history
I was always taught boy meets girl, fall in love get married and forget the world. Nine months later sweet baby's on the way Kiss 'em on the cheek and life's okay
I don't feel no pain I don't have no time to listen to conflicting points of view, oh. It's a crazy world to live alone. A ball and chain I call my own;
a ba na na na na whooo
People listen up don't stand to close, I've got somethin' that you all should know: holy matrimony is not for me, I'd rather die alone in misery
I was always taught boy meets girl, fall in love get married and forget the world, nine months later sweet baby's on the way. Isn't that what they used to say?
with a girl you knew, and the bonds that we grew, turned into a ball and chain, mmm.
I step into the great unknown. and a ball and chain I call my home; a-ba-na-na-na-na, whooo
crazy world to live alone
with a girl that you knew and the bonds that we grew turned into a ball and chain, ohh
I step into the great unknown, and a ball and cahin I call my own, because marriage doesn't work in the world today, It's an institution that is in decay and if I have love I wish to portray, I will surley find another way
because I was always taught that boy meets girl, fall in love get married and forget the world nine months later the sweet baby's on the way kiss him on the cheek and life's okay
I don't feel no pain I don't have no time to listen to conflicting points of view whoa I step into the great unknown with a ball and chain I call my own; a-ba-na-na-na-na whoooo
8: Badfish
When you grab ahold of me,
you tell me that I'll never be set free.
but I'm a parasite,
creep and crawl I step into the night.
Two pints of booze.
Tell me are you a badfish too?
(are you a badfish too?)
Ain't got no money to spend.
I hope the night would never end.
Lord knows I'm weak.
Won't somebody get get me off this reef?
Baby your a big blue whale
grab the reef when all duck divin' fails
I swim, but I wish I never learned,
the water's too polluted with germs.
I dive deep when it's ten feet over head.
grab the reef underneath my bed.
(underneath my bed)
Ain't got no quarrels with God,
ain't got no time to grow old.
Lord knows I'm weak,
won't somebody get me off this reef?
9: Let's Go Get Stoned
I swear sometimes your taking me for granted.
I swear sometimes that your a whore.
I swear but I know there ain't no reason
'cuz everything is such a bore
Last night I had a dream, lord it made me sick, saw you in your bedroom suckin' someone elses dick (my goodness!)
My friends all laughed, said it was my fault, said it's time that it happened to me, but i know that the show was much more than a blow, so I'm waiting for the tide to get low, waiting for the tide to get low
"damn, now lick my balls" "The rhythm, the rebel" "the young hefer" "the rhythm, the rebel" "I said suck the mother fucker, your bitin' it, shit!"
If I was an ant crawlin' upon the wall, tell me baby, would it make no difference at all? If I was a roach on a tree tell me, would you smoke me?
Bright lights put me in trance
but it ain't house music, makes me wanna dance,
word,
I don't gamble but I bet
I'm gonna die if I don't get a cigarette,
just because I always play the mac
put the monkey on my back,
mmmmhhmmm
10: New Thrash
I've got so much trouble on my mind that it feels if like I'm always sleepin' with the enemy,
but I know the real world always gets the last word in,
that's why I gotta kick reality
So don't tease me, and try to say that I should care,
might as well go out for mine 'cuz everybody's going out for theirs.
(Miguel) So don't tell me about a fake drug war,
cut education programs more,
the people will one day learn and rise
'cuz not everyone is out to score
people always ask me why people are all fucked up;
at every corner there's a liquor store
peace
11: Scarlet Begonias
As I was walkin' down rubadub square
not a chill to the wind but a nip to the air
from another direction she was caught in my eye
It could be an illusion but I might as well try
might as well try
she had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
and I knew without asking- she was into the blues
she wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
I knew right away she was not like other girls
like other girls
Well I ain't never been right as I ain't never been wrong
as heaven works out the way it does in this song (hey)
'cuz once in awhile you get shown in the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right
It was the summer of love and I thank the stars above
because the woman took a lovin' over me
and just to gain her trust I bought a microbus
because I sold off all my personal property
A tight tye-dye dress she was a psychadelic mess
we toured to the north, south, east, and west
we sold some mushroom tea we sold some extacy we sold nitrous, opium, acid, heroin, and pcp
and now I hear the police comin' after me
yes now I hear the police comin' after me
the one scarlet with the flowers in her hair she's got the police comin' after me
but there ain't nothin' wrong with the way she moves
all scarlet begonias and a touch of the blues
and there ain't nothin' wrong with the love that's in her eye
I had to learn the hard way just to let her pass by
let it pass by
oh just let her pass by
12: Live at E's
Yesterday I saw a whore
lookin' out for more
while she makes my body aches
when I walk in then I say:
Well (uh)
I'm on the mic doin' (uh)
the things you like and I'm (uh)
pleasy G and I'm (uh)
treat you right
'cuz all the ladies and me
you see we both agree
that (uh) I'm goin' down in world history, well yo
whoa she makes my body ache
and you know I live for more
I won't flake or perpetrate
I won't front no funky ho
Don't get me wrong I'm just
(uh) singin' my song
I'm just like you
I like to ball my freaks all night long
Not only do I rhyme
I also cut so nice
and all the fightin' perpetratin' dj's want my slice
cause I'm select
perpetratin' dj's, come and look for me
rock me rubadub rock and roll m.c.
so sweet and so nice,
they call me delight
go,ah,go,ah,go,ah,go,ah,go,ah,go go
go Eric, think of somthin', sing somthin'
(Eric) My name is Eric I have nothing to say
'cuz I'm not a fucking dj
and if you wanna come talk to me
then you gotta talk to my man Bradleeeeeeeey
ha ha ha ah,ah
(rasta dude)
(uh), (uh), elected,
my ryme's have been perfected
The fightin' m.c.s will be disected and rejected
I am the most supressive,
aspective, and progressive
motivating, innovating, chillin' and digested
it's obious as ever it will be specialized
If your trying to prevent, (uh),
it can't be comprimised
I am a fresh m.c.
as you can plainly see
you won't regret a dj a fresh m.c you'll soon agree
So take a seat and feel the beat
of course it is okay, (uh), (uh)
Yes thats the Ras M.g.
yo! on Judgement Day
That's right we outta here
5000 g 5000 g
we outta here, we outta here
peace, nothing but peace and unity
alright
13: D.J.s
All of the d.j.s surely have taken a lesson
start talking trash and I'll come with my Smith and Wesson
A little competition comes my way (billy bye)
but it always winds up the same
but "the stone that the builder refused,
shall be the head corner stone"
ah, but there
ain't nothin' wrong
ain't nothin' right
and still I sit and lie awake at night
oh, all of the d.j.s surely have taken a lesson
try talkin' trash and I'll come with my Smith and Wesson
enough d.j.s come with enough, enough stylee
but when I bust my lyrics we all know it's wicked and wiley
ain't nothin' wrong
ain't nothin' right
and still I sit and lie awake at night
oh, You better strapped with your gat if you wan' walk with me
I bound to come down with the new stylee
rockin' rubadub known as reggae music
gonna come down with the new lyrics
'cuz it just ain't no thing
oh, I said it's been a real long time
oh, but there
ain't nothin' wrong
ain't nothin' right
and still I sit and lie awake all night,
oh yea,
oh yeah Rubadub blender
a new mixer, go,
I am the one DJ with enough flava ,it go
here I go, here I'm come, heara the dubbed down d.j.
lord have this grilled cheese
I mean ah, I am Jamican but I ain't no freak
I caught the man Ino with a ten pound bag of tweak
("ha ha ha-tweaking") -(Eazy E - "damn.")
hold on, though we call it ghost rider
every time we see them you fulfill the danger
ain't nothin' wrong
ain't nothin' right
and still I sit and lie awake all night,
oh, oh yea
dreddy got a job to do,
and we might fulfill the mision
to see his pain would be his greatest ambition
but ah, we will survive in this world of compition
using guns and our ammunition
bo,bo,bo,bo,bo,bo,bo
go,go,go,go,go,go,go,go,go,go,go,go
I won't wait so long mm,
i said I won't wait so long for you
oh, oh, yeah mmm ooh oh
hard to get so much
hmm, stop your messin' around
ah ah ah ah better think of your future
ah ah ah ah time you straighten right out
ah ah ah ah or you'll wind up in jail
14: Chica Mi Tip (Chick on My Tip)
No importa que se lleva, porque todo se quitara
It doesn't matter what you wear, because you're going to take it all off
Ay, no puedo verlo, ni el figura
But no, I can't look at you, not even your figure
Cuando empecemos, no me dio cuenta
When we began, I did not realize
De que luego, tuviera que pagar
that afterwards, I would have to pay
pero si se cambie, me voy a acostarme con ti, con ti
but if things change, I'm going to lay down with you, with you
No me propongo predicar, vive y deja vivir
I'm not trying to preach, live and let live
Pero el amigo es un condon en el bolsillo
But a man's best friend is a condom in his pocket
Yo no soy medico, no soy chapusero
I am not a doctor, I am not a cheater
Solamente soy pobre, y ya estoy tan solo
I am only poor, and now I am so alone
Pero si se cambie, ella seria la mia,
but if things change, she will be mine,
para ser poseido en propiedad, en propiedad
to have as my property, property
I've got to get it on with you, oh what can I do?
I would lay down anytime with her, with her
15: Right Back
Sleepin' by yourself at night can make you feel alone
your girlfriend said so, but I really don't know
that don't mean we fucked around
that night last week when you left town
Was tweakin' by myself one night
that's when I wrote this tune
didn't have no need for that bed in my hotel room
uh-huh, sometimes right now
since I've left the pen
feels like I'm right back there again
sometimes I pray
waiting, waiting for some bright holiday (holiday)
So I bought myself a gun
and I'm right back, right back where I'm from
sleepin' by yourself at night can make you feel alone
my girfriend said so- she's a little ho
that don't mean I fuck around
I like to keep that higher ground
sometimes I pray
waiting, waiting for some bright holiday (holiday)
So I bought myself a gun
and I'm right back, right back where I'm from
oohhh, don't tease me
ohhh, don't tease me
don't tease me, oh
sometimes I pray
waiting, waiting for some bright holiday (holiday)
so I bought myself a gun
now I'm right back, right back where I'm from
16: What Happened
Wake up in the morning
clock says half past one
I have no sunglasses as I step into the sun
There's no recollection
of the evil things I've done
my head feels like I must have had some fun
what happened?
Last thing I remember
I was chillin' at a party
pinchin' girlie's asses
I was drinking recklessly
I know I did something
Lord what could it be?
woke up in the morning
and all my friends hate me
what happened?
oh yeah, play it for them wonder
What am I doing here?
who is this girl in my bed?
what is this shit on my face?
my god, what is that awful smell?
She may be an angel
she may be a queen
she might be
black, white, american, indian or japanese
what happened?
Threw a bottle at the bouncer
didn't think that he was cool
pissed in someones drink
and threw a bike into a pool
drivin' down the side walk
like a drunkin' possesed fool
I broke every single traffic rule
oh, what happened?
what happened?
Let's go!!!
She may be an angel
she may be a queen
she might be
black, white, american, indian or japanese

18: Ebin
Can hear the fuckin' fleas crawlin on my nutz, haha
Out my window, cool and bright
Day so slowly into night
Funny how things look the same
Now that my friend Ebin's changed
Ebin was a cooley that I used to know
Now he's down with the PLO
He's cold kickin it live with the KKK
No JVC, No JFA
Cooly was sportin' black tennis shoes
He was looking for something to use
With a pistol in his pocket and a bottle of boose
Well, it could be me or it could be you.
Oh feels like my whole life is rearragned
Ebin you changed
Ebin Ebin Ebin Ebin you Oh how you changed

He was a Nazi yeah yeah yeah
Hooked on crack just the other day
Now he's down with the CIA
We got covert operation in Vietnam
with a hit man assasin like a long strong arm
He went down to protect his country
Eat Mexican food and make lots o' money
Come back up north and drive a big white car
And take himself a plane down to Nicaragua
Well it feels like I'm the only one to blame
Oh Ebin you changed
Ebin Ebin Ebin Ebin you Oh you changed

Now that my friend Ebin's changed
19: Date Rape
Let me tell you about a girl I know,
had a drink about a hour ago
Sitting in a corner by herself,
in a bar in downtown L.
She heard a noise and she looked through the door.
And saw a man she'd never seen before.
Light skin, light blue eyes, a double-chin and a plastic smile.
Well
her heart raced as he walked through the door
And took an empty seat next to her at the bar.
"My brand new car is parked right outside.
How'd ya like to go for a ride?"
And she said
"Wait a minute I have to think."
He said."That's fine. May I please buy you a drink"
One drink turned into 3 or 4
and they left and got into his car
and drove someplace real far.
Now babe the time has come.
How'd ya like to have a little fun?
And she said.
"If we could only please be on our way
I will not run."
That's when things got out of control.
She didn't want to, he had his way.
She said."Let's Go" He said."No Way!"
Come on babe it's your lucky day.
Shut your mouth, were gonna do it my way.
Come on baby don't be afraid,
if it wasn't for date rape I'd never get laid.
He finished up and he started the car
He turned around and drove back to the bar
He said."Now baby don't be sad,
in my opinion you weren't half-bad."
She picked up a rock.,threw it at the car,
hit him in the head ,now his got a big scar.
Come on party people won't you listen to me.
Date Rape Styley.
The next day she went to her drawer,
looked up her local attorney at law,
went to the phone and filed a police report
and then she took the guy's ass to court.
Well
the day he stood in front of the judge he screamed.
"She lies that little slut!"
The judge knew that he was full of shit
and he gave him 25 yrs
And now his heart is filled with tears.
That night in jail it was getting late.
He was butt-raped by a large inmate
and he screamed.
But the guards paid no attention to his cries.
That's when things got out of control.
The moral of the date rape story,
it does not pay when your drunk and horny.
But that's the way it had to be.
They locked him up and threw away the key
Well, I can't take pity on men of his kind,
even though he now takes it in the behind
20: Hope
How can you say. "You torture me", when you're already thinking about someone else. When he comes home you'll be in his arms and I'll be gone. But I know my day will come, I know someday I'll be the only one.
So now you wait for a spark, you now it will turn you on. He's gonna make you feel the way you want to feel. When he starts to lie, when he makes you cry you'll now I'll be there. My day will come , I know someday I'll be the only one.
Call me selfish, call it what you like I think it's right. To want someone for all your own and not to share their love. But I'll have my way. You don't stand a chance anyway. Cause I got to you, you don't stand a chance.
So now you wait for his cock, you know it will turn you on. He's gonna make you feel the way you want to feel. When he starts to lie, when he makes you cry you'll now I'll be there. My day will come , I know someday I'll be the only one. My day will come , I know someday I'll be the only one.
You say you want perfection, I see your self destruction. You don't know what you want, it's gonna take you a year to find out. I am not givin up. And when you've had enough, you take your bruised little head and you'll come running back to me I know that I will be the only one.

22: River's of Babylon
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he went
when he remebered Zion.
For the wicked, carry us away
captivity require from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha's song in a strange land?
So let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our hearts
Be acceptable in thy sight
Over I
By the rivers of Babylyon
Where he sat down
And there he went
when he remebered Zion.
For the wicked, carry us away
captivity require from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha's song in a strange land?
