[Intro: Seun Kuti]
Uh-huh
Bad man lighter
One, two, three
[Chorus: Seun Kuti]
Who's got the bad man lighter? (Fuck up)
Fuck up the place now (Fuck up)
Who's got the bad man lighter? (Fuck up)
Fuck up the place (Fuck up)
And I know why they feel funky (Feel funky)
I know why my people, they feel funky (Feel funky)
[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Blocka, and I been cookin' in the hot sun
When push come to shove, I'm a badmon
Seun, yes, young king, we got one
See you when we eatin' from they food in the pot, done
Tell 'em people hold them heads and eyes up
So we can organize the youth to rise up
I'm not a colonizer sympathizer
Me and all my franchises been survivors
Sons and fathers, men for progress of our cause
Any minor setbacks is but a small cost
Not enough pressure for me to call the dogs off
I am more the spirit in charge than all y'all
So what is a messiah to a man?
You can try and understand, what's a lion to a land?
I made history, then history began
Black excellence is what we consistently demand
Push your lighters up
Uh-huh
Bad man lighter
One, two, three
[Chorus: Seun Kuti]
Who's got the bad man lighter? (Fuck up)
Fuck up the place now (Fuck up)
Who's got the bad man lighter? (Fuck up)
Fuck up the place (Fuck up)
And I know why they feel funky (Feel funky)
I know why my people, they feel funky (Feel funky)
[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Blocka, and I been cookin' in the hot sun
When push come to shove, I'm a badmon
Seun, yes, young king, we got one
See you when we eatin' from they food in the pot, done
Tell 'em people hold them heads and eyes up
So we can organize the youth to rise up
I'm not a colonizer sympathizer
Me and all my franchises been survivors
Sons and fathers, men for progress of our cause
Any minor setbacks is but a small cost
Not enough pressure for me to call the dogs off
I am more the spirit in charge than all y'all
So what is a messiah to a man?
You can try and understand, what's a lion to a land?
I made history, then history began
Black excellence is what we consistently demand
Push your lighters up
