The Coup

The Coup is a political hip hop group based in Oakland, California. It formed as a three-member group in 1990 with emcees Raymond "Boots" Riley and E-Roc along with DJ Pam the Funkstress. E-Roc left on amicable terms after the group's second album but appears on the track "Breathing Apparatus" on The Coup's third album, Steal This Album. With the release of that album in 1998, The Coup began incorporating the live instrumentation from their recordings into their live show. The Coup has, since that time, been a full band. more »

Bush and Hussein together in bed
Giving H E A D head
Y'all motherfuckers heard what we said
Billions made and millions dead

Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up

Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up

Bush and Hussein together in bed
Giving H E A D head
Y'all motherfuckers heard what we said
Billions made and millions dead

Bush and Hussein together in bed
Giving H E A D head
Y'all motherfuckers heard what we said
Billions made and millions dead

In a land not very far away from here
George W. Bush was drinkin' beer
His daddy was head of the CIA
Now listen up close to what I say

The CIA worked for Standard Oil
And other companies to whom they're loyal
In a whole 'nother land by the name of Iran
The people got wise and took a stand

To the oil companies, ay ain't shit funny?
This is our oil, our land, our money
CIA got mad and sent false info
To Iraq to help start the Iran-Iraq wo'

Pronounced war if I have to be proper
The CIA is the cops that's why I hate the coppers
Saddam Hussein was their man out there
They told him to rule while keepin' people scared

Sayin' any opposition to him, he must crush it
He gassed the Kurds, they gave him his budget
Said you gotta kick ass to protect our cash
Step out of line and feel our wrath

You know the time without lookin' at the little hand
Time came for them to cut out the middle man
Children maimed with no legs and shit
'Cause the 'Bomb's over' you know the OutKast hit

And they really want you to hate him dead
When just the other day they made him head
War ain't about one land against the next
It's po' people dyin' so the rich cash checks

Bush and Hussein together in bed
Giving H E A D head
Y'all motherfuckers heard what we said
Billions made and millions dead

Bush and Hussein together in bed
Giving H E A D head
Y'all motherfuckers heard what we said
Billions made and millions dead

Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up

Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up

Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up

Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
Work it out, set it up
