Lyrics

Speed

You got that tattoo from your best friend in your bedroom
You let him stick and poke you
You like French fry and the Fujicam flash and gold crew
It's good to get to know you

Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you do speed?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you do speed?

I got my bleach hair and my hand-me-downs
And my Kafka tee
I saw it on the TV
Feel my pulse pump from the 808 drum like amphetamine
If you know what I mean

Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you do speed?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you speak Japanese?
Do you do speed?

Baby girl is on the run (two sugar, no cream)
Park is full of coins and guns
Watch her flash her - for cash (Take the white man's money)
Slushy lips and cherry wishes
Blow the candles out
Happy birthday

God bless America
She can use her body for whatever
Do want you want
He can use his money for whatever
God bless America
She can use her body for whatever
Do want you want
He can use his money for whatever
