Текст песни M.I.A. - 20 Dollar

War war war

Talking bout you all is such a bore

I'd rather talk about moi



Do you know that cost of a.ks

Up in Africa

20 dollars ain't shit to you

But that's how much they are

So they gonna use the shit just to get far



Is girls, diamonds

Helping you?

Don't you like my bandanna?

My stains hang low

On my shirts like ay yai ay

Monkey brains and banana

I'll hit you with my antana

I put soap in my eye

Make it red so I look raa



Ra ra

So I woke up with my holy quran and found out I like Cadillac

So we shooting till the song is up

Little boys are acting up

Baby mothers are going crazy

And the leaders all round cracking up

We goat rich we fry

Price of living in a shanty town just seem very high

We still like T.I.

We still look fly

Dancing as we shooting up

And lootin just to get by.



With your feet in the air and your head on the ground

Try this trick and spin it, yeah

Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it

And you'll ask yourself

"Where is my mind?"



War war war

Who made me like this

Was it me and god in co-production

My devil's on speed dial

Everytime I take the wrong direction



All I want is one thing and that is what you got

Sometimes I go lose my mind then I feel numb



There's 24 hours in a day

I used to spilt it 8, 8, 8

8 work

8 sleep

8 for play

Now I give it all it takes



People on the Internet

A new life for the intellect

People judge me so hard

'cause I don't floss my titty set

I was born out of dirt like I'm porn in a skirt

I was a little girl who made good with all that I blurt

I put people on the map that never seen a map

I show 'em something they ain't never seen

And hope they make it back!!!!



With your feet in the air and your head on the ground

Try this trick and spin it, yeah

Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it

And you'll ask yourself

"Where is my mind?"
