Lyrics

[Verse 1]

My veins are blue and connected

And every single bone in my brain is electric

But I dig ditches like the best of 'em

Yo trabajo duro

Como en madera y yeso

Como en madera y yeso

[Verse 2]

And even God herself has fewer plans than me

But she never helps me out with my scams for free, though

She grabs a stick and then she points it at me

When I say nothing, I say everything

Yeah, when I say nothing, I say everything

[Verse 3]

They put me down in a lazaretto

Born rotten, bored rotten

Making models of people I used to know

Out of coffee and cotton

[Verse 4]

And all my illegitimate kids have begotten

Thrown down to the wolves, made feral for nothin'

Quarantined on the Isle of Man

And I'm tryin' to escape any way that I can, oh

Any way that I can, oh

[Verse 5]

Damn, I have no time left, time is lost

No time at all, throw it in a garbage can

And I shake God's hand

I jump up and let her know when I can

This is how I'm gonna do it

[Bridge]

They wanna burn down the prison

They're lighting fires with the cash of the masses

And like the dough, I don't fall down

I'm so Detroit, I make it rise from the ashes
