Something for Nothing

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Felix]
 The dirty ceiling needs a cleanin', floors been beat
 I stand for hours before the show, band pictures on the wall
 Load the gear in, feelin' like I know I'm not far from home
 But this place feels really different from St. Paul
 It ain't all sting, my friends are around me
 My cell phone, headphones, band, and microphone
 I haven't eaten' nothing but a continental breakfast
 Thanks to Motel 6 for throwin' a dog a bone
 One can hardly feel alone with all these pictures
 Press shots, you know the ones that you're supposed to sign
 Tonight the stage is ours, we don't have that picture
 That picture ain't us, I'll make the memory shine
 (Doors) Hey Mr. DJ
 Would you flip it like the loser at a bullfight?
 Spin it like tequila with just a little bite?
 Twist it like a doorknob? Let's start the night
 The extended family is the crowd and they're here
 You're skeptical at first, but I'm glad that you cheer
 I don't get stage fright but Twinkie gets nervous
 dVRG dons the glasses and commence service
 [Hook: Muad'Dib]
 Stand up, stretch, hit the roof
 Bounce off the walls and shake the rafters loose, that's the truth
 Man I wanna see somebody jumpin'
 Ain't no way y'all are gettin' somethin' for nothin'
 Visualize and execute, that's it, keep movin'
 We told you it's not worse than pullin' a tooth
 Man I wanna see everybody jumpin'
 We can't let y'all get somethin' for nothin'
 [Verse 2: Felix]
 On stage I pace like a tiger
 Yes, Felix is a cat and I've got cats at home
 I know exactly how they feel when they lookin' out the window
 My windows on the stage just your side of the microphone
 I'm lookin' at you, feel the eyes burnin'
 Intensity is buildin', unconcerned with any person
 It's just the mass that counts
 Make 'em bounce till the sweat oozes out
 Don't leave 'em with one ounce
 Stalk your crew like ya animal's mindset
 Take a little breath and share a few of those words with you and yours
 Let me pace my space, maybe you'll see 'em feed me
 I promise you before the end you'll see me roar
 [Hook: Muad'Dib]
 Stand up, stretch, hit the roof
 Bounce off the walls and shake the rafters loose, that's the truth
 Man I wanna see somebody jumpin'
 Ain't no way y'all are getting' somethin' for nothin'
 Visualize and execute, that's it, keep movin'
 We told you it's not worse than pullin' a tooth
 Man I wanna see everybody jumpin'
 We can't let y'all get somethin' for nothin'
 [Verse 3: Felix]
 Day-to-day drama weighs down my shoulders
 I'm just too generous with limits
 A sucker born every minute, they say
 Maybe I'm a sucker but at least I'm not timid
 Push the gimmicks to the left, integrity is to the right
 Look through the middle at the floor, feel the stomach roar
 This is still about the vibe in this place
 Show them, I'm realer than Chris Rock's hair in CB4
 I see the door but then leavin' means defeat
 If I take a seat the local sharks will think that I'm weak
 I've done this before, shit you've done this before
 So you know that's all to do is hold it down like a bungee cord
 On stage there's an education to be had
 The front row wants to teach you when they want it that bad
 The middle wants to nod their heads and give approval
 Soundman teaches mic technique and wants your removal
 Now there's work and there's play, there's worse and OK
 And on a perfect day I can do both
 Some days my teachers put me at the front of the class
 Other days I do all of my work and yet they're still in my throat
 This is the kind of night that when they raise the lights
 The drinkin' doesn't stop it just moves outside
 BYOB: "bring your own bullshit"
 I'll stay indoors, I learned a lot
 Thanks for the ride
 [Hook: Muad'Dib]
 Stand up, stretch, hit the roof
 Bounce off the walls and shake the rafters loose, that's the truth
 Man I wanna see somebody jumpin'
 Ain't no way y'all are gettin' somethin' for nothin'
 Visualize and execute, that's it, keep movin'
 We told you it's not worse than pullin' a tooth
 Man I wanna see everybody jumpin'
 We can't let y'all get somethin' for nothin'
