Rage Against the Machine - People of the Sun (Original Lyrics) (BBC Radio 1)

06.07.93, Mark Goodier's "Evening Session", BBC Radio 1, Maida Vale Studios, London. Original lyrics version recorded live in studio. A new recording of this should have been on the People of the Sun single.

Lyrics (not completely right, but I gave my best):

(verse 1)
bastard son is in
swimmin' in a sea of funk
clear the lane I'm gonna have to dunk ya
up and down like a donut in a caffienated drink
so peep the sync
I take it to the brink
and check the ruggish style I flip
and if the price is right
I'll take you on a trip
in my old school '62
two-tone white and blue
one that you never want to step to

(pre-chorus)
face my bassline
feel the earth quakin'
sweat is on site
I'm at the maddest
stickin' for my culture
white folks came and tried to steal my name
but now I gotta gun

(chorus)
this is for the people of the sun
it's comin' back around again

(verse 2)
I'm not a silent one
I'm a defiant one
never the normal one
coz I'm the bastard son
clear the way
coz Father sky sees blood
and now it drips away on Mother Earth
I'm tearin' off a big fat chunk of the funk
clear the lane I gotta dunk
Never smokin' skunk or the cess
So loco, Shaolin of the Buddah
I gotta a brown six shooter
So fuck the hoota

(pre-chorus and chorus repeat)

For the sun!
