Soldier

[Chorus: Santigold]

I don't know what they told you

But I am soldier, baby

There's no fire I won't go through

Just to hold you baby

I'm with a backup rebel

Here for the night now

I know what you like

Just for tonight

[Hook: Santigold]

Bom bom, bom bom bom bom

Bom bom, bom bom bee-low

Bom bom bom bom, bom bom bee-low

I know what you like

Just for tonight

[Verse 1: Pharrell Williams]

What's wrong with my red flannel?

What's that on your news channel?

All your B.S plans I know

That is why we wear camo

Yes we love our fans and so

Have convos and shake hands so

Think of those that can't go

Next time we gon' make the speakers blow

Crowd surf 'til they can't no more

Hop on stage and spaz all show

We 'preciate you spending that dough

Knowing every word from the intro

Interesting with your friend

Wear your shit

Wear my shit

Yes I rock that surf and so

Man sandals? Uh, no

You ask what I'm fighting

You wanna know when I'm fighting

Man your radio ain't exciting

Man your TV ain't exciting

Wanna know what you're hiding

Books I raise are dying

Wanna know what the hope you're buying

Looks like minds are frying

Screw you and your corporate quarters

We're taking your sons and daughters

It's time for social order

Musical social order

And now our lives are shorter

Got the drugs inside the water

Get that news reporter

Now turn off your camcorder

[Chorus: Santigold]

I don't know what they told you

But I am soldier, baby

There's no fire I won't go through

Just to hold you baby

I'm with a backup rebel

Here for the night now

I know what you like

Just for tonight

[Verse 2: Shae Haley]

Every time you come see us

Shows so loud the walls might bust

We go crazy cars are dust

Tell security “don’t you cuss”

Kick the stairs and cop your tee

Run backstage to our room please

If security comes and asks

"Where’s your pass?" Say you’re me

Flick off to whatever he says

Hop the fence and jump the stage

Make sure you’re seen, sure you’re heard

Snatch the mic and sing the words

If they kick you out the door

Turn around come back for more

If they won’t let you in line

Say “Fuck you I had a great time”

You ask what I’m fighting

You wanna know what I’m fighting

Curriculum ain’t exciting

Teach given’ em ain’t exciting

Oh, it don’t fit your timing

'Cause you always lying

Surprised that we ain’t whining

Fuck that, we are trying

Screw you and your chauffeur

We’re taking your sons and daughters

It’s time for social order

Musical social order

And now our lives are shorter

Got the drugs inside the water

Get that, miss reporter

Now turn on your camcorder

[Chorus: Santigold]

I don't know what they told you

But I am soldier, baby

There's no fire I won't go through

Just to hold you baby

I'm with a backup rebel

Here for the night now

I know what you like

Just for tonight

[Hook: Santigold]

Bom bom, bom bom bom bom

Bom bom, bom bom bee-low

Bom bom bom bom, bom bom bee-low

I know what you like

Just for tonight

[Chorus: Santigold]

I don't know what they told you

But I am soldier, baby

There's no fire I won't go through

Just to hold you baby

I'm with a backup rebel

Here for the night now

I know what you like

Just for tonight

[Hook: Santigold]

Bom bom, bom bom bom bom

Bom bom, bom bom bee-low

Bom bom bom bom, bom bom bee-low

I know what you like

Just for tonight
