lirik lagu henry phillips - what do you want me to do about it? ('99)
[intro]
i dunno, this is a song that i wrote about, just, just the enveloping futility of our existence, and, uh, and i hope you enjoy it, and it goes something like this
[verse 1]
i know it’s gettin’ late at night
and i know you’re tired
and i know that right now the headlines got you down
but what do you want me to do about it?
[verse 2]
and i know we’re generating higher trade deficits
and i know the international monetary fund is creating social havoc in indonesia
and i know that the tendency for global economic overcapacity to slow consumer spending coupled with that of american multinational corporations to export high wage jobs could result in a global collapse of demand, causing rising unemployment, lowered profits, and rising trade deficits
but what do you want me to do about it?
[verse 3]
and i know there’s a hole in the ozone layer
and i know that atmospheric temperatures are on the rise
and i know that most environmental scientists agree that increased carbon dioxide levels caused by the excessive burning of fossil fuels that cause the glaciers to melt and the sea levels to rise is rendering mankind destined to extinction in the vast death of the solar system
but what do you want me to do about it?
[verse 4]
en français
je sais que le monde est absurde
et je sais qu’il y a beaucoup de problèmes
et je sais que françois mitterrand, ces grands érudits de la cinquième république du charles de gaulle, s’est installé au douceur chez est vrai qu’il est ancien collaborateur [?]
mais qu’est ce tu veux que j’y fasse?
[verse 5]
en español
yo sé que el mundo es loco
y yo sé que hay muchas problemas
y yo sé que las violaciones de los derechos civiles de los inmigrantes ilegales mexicano por la policía americana demuestran los problemas que los ciudadanos de méxico tienen
pero yo quiero taco bell
[verse 6]
in ebonics
i know that five’ll [?] always be buggin’ and sh~t
and i know y’all ain’t digging what it is
and i know that all these bellway heads in the honky house be flapping they gums, bad rapping the blood, while boys in the hood be getting jacked up for chump change, going by the projects, getting slapped upside they head
but why you be all up in my sh~t, muf~cka?
[verse 7]
and i know there’s people dying all over the world
and i know there’s people dying right here in l.a
and i know that despite these problems, disney executive michael eisner just cashed out over five hundred million dollars in stock options which is more than eight times the gross national product of the solomon islands
[outro]
but what do you want me to do about it?
