PUBLIC ENEMY - BURN HOLLYWOOD BURN Lyrics

Burn Hollywood burn I smell a riotGoin' on first they're guilty now they're goneYeah I'll check out a movieBut it'll take a Black one to move meGet me the hell away from this TVAll this news and views are beneath meCause all I hear about is shots ringin' outAbout gangs puttin' each other's head outSo I rather kick some slang outAll right fellas let's go hang outHollywood or would they notMake us all look bad like I know they hadBut some things I'll never forget yeahSo step and fetch this shitFor all the years we looked like clownsThe joke is over smell the smoke from all aroundBurn Hollywood burnICE CUBE:Ice Cube is down with the PENow every single bitch wanna see meBig Daddy is smooth word to mutherLet's check out a flick that exploits the colorRoamin' thru Hollywood late at nightRed and blue lights what a common sightPulled to the curb gettin' played like a suckerDon't fight the power ... the mother fuckerBIG DADDY KANE:As I walk the streets of Hollywood BoulevardThinkin' how hard it was to those that starredIn the movies portrayin' the rolesOf butlers and maids slaves and hoesMany intelligent Black men seemed to look uncivilizedWhen on the screenLike a guess I figure you to play some jigabooOn the plantation, what else can a nigger doAnd Black women in this professionAs for playin' a lawyer, out of the questionFor what they play Aunt Jemima is the perfect termEven if now she got a permSo let's make our own movies like Spike LeeCause the roles being offered don't strike meThere's nothing that the Black man could use to earnBurn Hollywood burn
