Burn Hollywood Burn Lyrics

featuring Ice Cube  Big Daddy Kane  

  

 CHUCK D:  

  

 Burn Hollywood burn I smell a riot  

 Goin' on first htey're guilty now they're gone  

 Yeah I'll check out a movie  

 But it'll take a Black one to move me  

 Get me the hell away from this TV  

 All this news and views are beneath me  

 Cause all I hear about is shots ringin' out  

 So I rather kick some slang out  

 All right fellas let's go hand out  

 Hollywood or would they not  

 Make us all look bad like I know they had  

 But some things I'll never forget yeah  

 So step and fetch this shit  

 For all the years we looked like clowns  

 The joke is over smell the smoke from all around  

 Burn Hollywood burn  

  

 ICE CUBE:  

  

 Ice Cube is down with the PE  

 Now every single bitch wanna see me  

 Big Daddy is smooth word to muther  

 Let's check out a flick that exploits the color  

 Roamin' thru Hollywood late at night  

 Red and blue lights what a common sight  

 Pulled to the curb gettin' played like a sucker  

 Don't fight the power ... the mother fucker  

  

 BIG DADDY KANE:  

  

 As I walk the streets of Hollywood Boulevard  

 Thinin' how hard it was to those that starred  

 In the movies portrayin' the roles  

 Of butlers and maids slaves and hoes  

 Many intelligent Black men seemed to look uncivilized  

 When on the screen  

 Like a guess I figure you to play some jigaboo  

 On the plantation, what else can a nigger do  

 And Black women in this profession  

 As for playin' a lawyer, out of the question  

 For what they play Aunt Jemima is the perfect term  

 Even if now she got a perm  

 So let's make our own movies like Spike Lee  

 Cause the roles being offered don't strike me  

 There's nothing that the Black man could use to earn  

 Burn Hollywood burn
