8. Lickin' the Gun (3:17)
Lickin' the gun lickin' the hand that feeds you
Lickin' the gun finger lickin' fun
Senator husband goin' for broke
I've gotta prove I'm not a joke
We smoked the stuff in '69
Now it's different it's a crime
Kids today don't understand
Kids today need a guiding hand
I get a sticker if it rhymes with buck
When the law suits fly I guess I'll duck
Watch religion come and go
Watch corruption on their shows
Buy your silence money for blood
Out of the ark and into the flood
Crazy men with Russian guns
My words never killed anyone
Kissing babies lickin' the gun
Ain't political nah – just having fun
Eat it up law down and die
They'll shoot you up and they don't know why
They're doing a job and they enjoy it too
They're protecting us from me and you
We smoked the stuff in '69
Now it's different it's a crime
I don't care to wait and see
If I'm cool enough to make history
Lickin' the gun finger lickin' fun
Senator husband goin' for broke
I've gotta prove I'm not a joke
We smoked the stuff in '69
Now it's different it's a crime
Kids today don't understand
Kids today need a guiding hand
I get a sticker if it rhymes with buck
When the law suits fly I guess I'll duck
Watch religion come and go
Watch corruption on their shows
Buy your silence money for blood
Out of the ark and into the flood
Crazy men with Russian guns
My words never killed anyone
Kissing babies lickin' the gun
Ain't political nah – just having fun
Eat it up law down and die
They'll shoot you up and they don't know why
They're doing a job and they enjoy it too
They're protecting us from me and you
We smoked the stuff in '69
Now it's different it's a crime
I don't care to wait and see
If I'm cool enough to make history
