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 »

Baby boy (get it together) with big brown eyes
And oh my God with thick long lashes mind you
Crying to the beat of the words project complex
Looking out his window (Get it together)
Wondering if he is now the owner of a complex
Living in the projects
Yeah well, uh, mama's living on welfare
And she ain't been living well
And that for damn sure ain't fair
That's 360 degrees of poverty (Get it together)
Baby boy with big brown eyes
And oh my God with thick long lashes mind you
Realizing living in a society with a bunch of menaces
Can't be all damn bad when labelled a menace to society
Well shit, he fit right in, looking at you like you're mad (Get it together)
'Cause you talking out your butt 
Just say no to drugs, but say yes to what?
Baby boy (get it together) with big brown eyes
And oh my God with thick long lashes mind you
Thinks he's a man now
'Cause he now has a baby boy (get it together) with big brown eyes
And oh my God with thick long lashes mind you
Crying to the same beat of the words project complex
Looking out his window wondering am I not the owner of a complex
Living in the projects
You see what goes around comes back around
And oh goddamn here it come now
