Who are the Pimps? Boogie Down Productions

[Intro]
Stick up!!!
All gwan put your hands up in de air
And turn around with your face to the ground
Stick up!!!

[Verse 1]
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 em up when you're tax exempt
Like for 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 saying?
"Pick up that money ho!"
Did none of the work, but now a part of the show
You're a ho, 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 nothing
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
