Who Are The Pimps? Lyrics - Sex And Violence - Boogie Down Productions

Stick up! 

All gwan put your hands up in de air 

and turn around with your face to the ground 

Stick up! 

Here we go 

Who are the pimps? Who are the pimps? 

Wimps, sitting behind a desk 

You only get a glimpse of the action or reaction 

when you don't respond to them TAXING 

You fuck a lot when you're tax exempt 

Like with the church, the rules were somehow bent 

The more money you make, the more money you can have 

You lose your mind after a while trying to just 

grab and grab and grab and grab and grab 

until the pimps roll around real mad, what they say? 

"Pick up that money hoe!" 

You done all the work, but now a part of the show 

You're a hoe, you pimped all around real fresh 

Got letters on they chest spelling I, R, S 

And they be taxing, asking, sitting back relaxing 

Pimping asian, european, blacks and chicano 

Hah hah! But they can't pimp a wino 

Why? Because a wino don't want nuttin 

It's when you try to get ahead they start frontin 

Capitalism -- the system of pimps and hoes 

I'm sorry that's the way it goes 

In this particular system everyone's a slave 

Racist is how they want us to behave 

White Johnny, be fighting black Michael 

Both are blind to the system's sick cycle 

In a circle psychotically they slay each other 

with a grin, because of color of a skin 

"Pick up that money hoe!" (3X)

Now we don't want to get you all alarmed 

A little education never did you no harm 

When Africa's free the African will be free 

Capitalism says we're ALL in slavery 

They're not looking at the color of a human brother 

April 15th they're looking at your mother! 

"Pick up that money hoe!" 

You work all week, and now your money has to go 

to a pimp, and it's you that limp 

They cut your check and take a tenth 

Don't wanna hear no lip, about support of family 

Cause on a piece of paper that's a fantasy 

They don't care if you're in a bad mood 

Your wife needs shoes, your kids need food 

Uh-uh, pick up that money honey 

The pimps so serious they're funny! 

They'll look you straight into your face 

and tell you that your money's going to a good place 

Like Social Security or Welfare 

But if you go to the Bahamas you'll see them all there 

"Pick up that money hoe!" (4X)
