I am Somethin' Wicked because I deal in the truth, which is known to get wicked.
Story behind the song
The lyrics state it all.
Lyrics
Hey it's Somethin' Wicked yo, this is what I gotta do.
To start a revelation Bro, I'ma have to spit what's true.
It's about this nation though, of the red, white, and blue.
Long ago it wasn't so, but that lonely dream we slew.
Now we have to dig a grave, we can never get it back.
Our population is enslaved, a nation in a heart-attack.
The weak sick and depraved, are mortar soon to crack.
until the day we're bathed, the dead will only stack.
You act like we don't see, just what you do.
In your own wickedry, you do just for you. (x2)
Our forces must combine,unite, for the power of all races.
Purge us of this sinful blight, the greatest nation on earth faces.
So we might end the plight, our dead economy embraces.
We are one, show our might, break us of this freezing stasis.
There's the bridle take a bite, you know you can take us places
You know I am true and right, you can't hide behind those faces.
Don't you argue, don't you fight, we know where your place is.
And you know you can not hide, let's bring it back to basics.
(Corus)
Here's the plan, listen up, this is how we do.
Find and punish the corrupt, tell them they are through.
As a whole we must erupt, like when we had grew.
And as one, clean and scrubbed, till we're something new.
I intend to make a fuss, till somethin is done.
And I speak for all of us, the age of truth's begun.
Equality for all a must, no time for games or fun.
Leave the old to dead and rust, the age of all or none.
(Alternate Corus)
