Tha Payroll Lyrics - Spearhead

Grandma this one's for you (stay strong) 

 

(He's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' brothers being treated ill 

(He's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homey's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got him working on tha Payroll 

(She's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' sistas being treated ill 

(She's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homegirl's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got her working on tha Payroll 

 

At twenty one the brother 'Smooth' he got a record deal 

Been working hard been writin' songs about the things he feels 

He says it's real, 'cause I got bills, but I got skills 

My deck is stacked, if I could only get my shit on wax 

When it was ripe he took his tape up to the rec execs 

They smoked cigars and rolled their eye's at him behind their specs 

Your shit is phat but I don't hear it in the format Jack 

What's all this black crap check page twenty one of your contract 

 

(He's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' brothers being treated ill 

(He's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homey's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got him working on tha Payroll 

(She's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' sistas being treated ill 

(She's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homegirl's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got her working on tha Payroll 

 

A friend of mine Roberta she got a job at the post office 

She was college edjamacated but got fired up at the law office 

I'm all alone two kids at home, I need a job just any job 

So I can get back on my feet like Tina 'T'(urner) 

The boss came up to her said, 'why don't you come home with me' 

I'd like to see you take off your clothes for me 

She said 'No way man!' 

He said 'You don't understand' 

'You lose your life, you lose your job if you don't do this shift!' 

 

(He's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' brothers being treated ill 

(He's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homey's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got him working on tha Payroll 

(She's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' sistas being treated ill 

(She's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homegirl's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got her working on tha Payroll 

 

I met a black man who became a police officer 

Officer, officer, officer, officer, officer, overseer 

He tried to tell me it was the only job available 

Either rob or join the mob 'cause I'm not salable 

One night he went out on an undercover sting-ing 

Bought some smack tried to break the heroin ring-ring 

Two cops white cops saw juggling goin' down 

They spilled his brain like homey the fuckin' clown 

(He's gone!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say no 

Got sick and tired of seein' people bein' treated ill 

Picked up my nines, walked up from behind 

Tapped two of them on the neck so I could meet their eyes direct 

Pom! Pom 

I didn't do it for tha payroll 

 

(He's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' brothers being treated ill 

(He's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homey's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got him working on tha Payroll 

(She's strong!) 

Mama Mama Mama Mama I couldn't say 'No' 

(So strong!) 

Got sick and tired of seein' sistas being treated ill 

(She's strong!) 

They say to chill, they say my homegirl's not available 

(Stay strong!) 

I hear Mama they got her working on tha Payroll
