Giedi Prime






Giedi Prime

On and on Giedi Prime goes
I wonder how we took the wrong road
Even tho it seems so far in the future
But you know we can’t ever go home again
[Repeat]

I was born in the morning of House Harkonnen
Torn between mourning and celebrating smog
Majored in Reganomics, hip hop and comics
Fisted by dollars, got fucked by the stock market
Global warming chart hopping, purple rain falling
Ponzi schemes up, Berlin Walls down
After the iron curtain cattle call got done
Late capitalism expeditions into Asia great fun

Chilling up outer space for military housing
With the little we got, maybe a shack on Mars
Moms and Pops get to be new immigrants
Navigating 2012 with old worlds colliding
Far from Huxley’s Brave New World
That's why I'm still comfortably sleeping
In the back alleys of dirty Giedi Prime City
All those years gone, and still it’s 1984

Still fighting more undeclared wars
Caught 'em shipping arms to Saturn for
Titan contras way over there
A cold space war getting hotter
Now what's going on?
You think something's gone wrong?
On and on Giedi Prime goes
I wonder if we've took da wrong road?

Now nothing beats the smell of a planet gone bad
The stench of Giedi Prime’s industrial wasteland
Pumping up the system with mining and refineries
Industrial pollution, garbage, crud, radioactivity
I rock with my Weyerhaeuser prosthetic limbs
I drive a fast, mean Pepsi-Cola wheelchair
I gotta sweet NutriSweet cute little girlfriend with
A fine Aspartame ass and nice Coca-Cola tits

I watch more Star Trek than FoxNews or MTV
The years come and go full of hiphop all the way
Starships instead of slaveships the same old beat
Eventually every week it's interstellar fleet
How the fuck can I watch the Academy Awards
With all that static caused by the Rings of Saturn?
Are they still giving hiphop awards back in LA?
Baron Harkonnen the new hiphop homie
.

On and on Giedi Prime goes
I wonder how we took the wrong road
Even tho it seems so far in the future
But you know we can’t ever go home again
