Hadda Be Playing On The Jukebox Lyrics - Rage Against The Machine

Lookin' like a bunch of Frat boys at summer camp and shit 

It hadda be flashin' like the daily double 

Hadda be playin' on TV 

Hadda be loud mouthed on the comedy hour 

Hadda be announced over loud speakers 

The CIA and the Mafia are in cahoots 

It hadda be said in old ladies' language 

It hadda be said in American headlines 

Kennedy stretched and smiled 

And got double crossed by lowlife goons and agents 

Rich bankers with criminal connections 

Dope pushers in CIA working with 

Dope pushers from Cuba working with 

Big time syndicate Tampa, Florida

Musicians React To Linkin Park Lead Singer Chester Bennington's Death 

It hadda be said with a big mouth 

It hadda be moaned over factory foghorns 

It hadda be chattered on car radio news broadcasts 

It hadda be screamed in the kitchen 

It hadda be yelled in the basement where uncles were fighting 

It hadda be howled on the streets by newsboys to bus conductors 

It hadda be foghorned into New York harbor 

It hadda echo under hard hats 

It hadda turn up the volume in the university ballrooms 

Hadda be written in library books, footnoted 

Hadda be in the headlines of the Times and Le Monde 

It hadda be barked over TV 

Hadda be heard in side alleys through ballroom doors 

It hadda be played on wire services 

Hadda be bells ringing 

Comedians stopped dead in the middle of a joke in Las Vegas 

Photos 

Haddda be FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover 

And Frank Costello syndicate mouthpiece 

Meeting in Central Park, New York weekends 

Reported Time magazine 

Hadda be the Mafia and the CIA together starting war on Cuba 

Bay of Pigs and poison assassination headlines 

Hadda be dope cops in the Mafia 

Sold all that heroin in America 

Hadda be the FBI and organized crime working it together in cahoots 

Against the commies 

Hadda be ringing on multinational cash registers 

World-wide laundry for organized criminal money 

Hadda be the CIA and the Mafia and the FBI together 

Bigger than Nixon and bigger than war 

Hadda be a gorged throat full of murder 

Hadda be a mounted ass, a solid mass of rage 

Hadda be a red hot head 

A scream in the back of the throat 

Hadda be a Kissinger's brain 

Hadda be in Rockefellers' mouth 

Hadda be the central intelligence, the family, offing the agency Mafia 

One big set of gangs working together in cahoots 

Hitmen 

Murderers everywhere 

Outrage gonna make 

Secret, drunk, brutal, dirty, and rich 

On top of a slag heap of prisons 

Industrial cancer 

Plutonium smog 

Garbage cities, grandmas' bedsores 

Fathers' resentments 

Hadda be the rulers 

Wanting law and order 

And they got rich on wanting protection for the status quo 

Wanted junkies 

Wanted Attica 

Wanted Kent State 

Wanted war in Indochina 

Yeah 

It hadda be the CIA and the Mafia and the FBI 

Multinational capitalists 

Strong armed squads 

Private detective agencies for the oh so very rich 

And their armies, their navies and air force bombing planes 

Hadda be capitalism 

The vortex of this rage 

This competition man to man 

The horses head in a capitalists' bed 

The Cuban's turf ? competitions 

Hitmen in gang wars across oceans 

Bombing Cambodia settled the score 

With White House pots and pans 

A warning to Mediterranean governments 

The secret police have braced for decades 

The NKPD and CIA keep each other's secrets 

The OGBU and DIA never hit their own 

The KGB and the FBI one mind 

Brute force and full of money 

One mind, brute force, and full of money 

One mind, brute force, and full of money 

One mind, brute force, and full of money 

One mind, brute force, and full of money 

And full of money 

And full of money 

And full of money 

It hadda be rich and they hadda be powerful 

They hadda murder in Indonesia five hundred thousand 

Hadda murder in Indochina two million 

Hadda murder in Czechoslovakia 

Hadda murder in Chile 

Hadda murder in Russia 

And hadda murder in America 

That was a poem by Allen Ginsberg 

Called "Hadda Be Playing on the Jukebox" 

He's a great poet
