Wordy Rappinghood

By: Tom tom Club

What are words worth?
What are words worth? Words

Words in papers, words in books
Words on TV, words for crooks
Words of comfort, words of peace
Words to make the fighting cease
Words to tell you what to do
Words are working hard for you
Eat your words but don't go hungry
Words have always nearly hung me

What are words worth?
What are words worth? Words

Words of nuance, words of skill
And words of romance are a thrill
Words are stupid, words are fun
Words can put you on the run
Mots pres�s, mots sens�s
Mots qui disent la v�rit�
Mots maudits, mots mentis
Mots qui manquent le fruit d'esprit

What are words worth?
What are words worth? Words

It's a rap race with a fast pace
Concrete words, abstract words
Crazy words and lying words
Hazy words and dying words
Words of faith and tell me straight
Rare words and swear words
Good words and bad words

What are words worth?
What are words worth? Words

What are words worth?
What are words worth? Words

Words can make you pay and pay
Four-letter words I cannot say
(Panty, toilet, dirty devil)
Words are trouble, words are subtle
Words of anger, words of hate
Words over here (Words out there)
In the air and everywhere
Words of wisdom, words of strife
Words that write the book I like
Words won't find no right solution
To the planet earth's pollution
(Say the right word, make a million)
Words are like a certain person who can't say what they mean
Don't mean what they say
(With a rap rap here and a rap rap there)
(Here a rap, there a rap, everywhere a rap rap)
Rap it up for the common good, let us enlist the neighbourhood

(It's okay, I've overstood)
(This is a wordy rappinghood, okay, bye)

He'll stop...
Don't stop... Stop
