Lyrics: Boitumelo Molekane
Music: Matthieu Di Stefano/Sylvain Langlet/Jonathan Busson
Warriors without a war
Soldiers without a cause
It's Napoleon without a horse
Can't avenge your biggest loss
The 47 Ronin
Rather die in honour than be broken
A code forgotten for the soda pop
Locked and loaded no one to call the shot
You know the name
But I'll gladly reintroduce you
To Molekane
Tumi the coolest the lame
The truest the fake
The new and latest
To do it the same
The rules haven't changed
Lose or win its really 'bout
How you move in the game
The righteous and hypocrite
Can't tell the difference like
Who should be ashamed?
The proof in the cake
The proof in the pudding
It's in the Cuba Gooding way
You look at your agent
He coulda been brave
But he wants Kunta Kente Slave
So shook is what you became
Took a look in that book
And Cooked up a crooked scheme
What good is a cookie baked
Michelin grade, when meant you couldn't taste?
Warriors without a war
Soldiers without a cause
It's Napoleon without a horse
Can't avenge your biggest loss
The 47 Ronin
Rather die in honour than be broken
A code forgotten for the soda pop
Locked and loaded no one to call the shot
You know the name?
T from the ****ing V!
I refuse to speak politely
Now bite me, like I be with Aphrodite in a onesie nighty mighty mousing the catty
Call me Daddy Dirty Harry
"Do I feel lucky?"
Well I just went through 44 Magnums
Get it? 44 Magnums!
And I not talking chocolates or handguns
I am a phantom, a ghost
Rambling on like the drunk in a tavern back home
The talent's all for show
I could balance balls
And tumble across the floor
Come back and land the fall
They applaud, I am hella bored
Need that Helen Keller handicap score,
Cuz whats a general without a war?
Just a degenerate who loves a whore
Getting irrelevant I've gotten lost
Spending the evening with the drunken hoards
And they chatter on
'Bout the bravery allegories
And the fables will carry on
Warriors without a war
Soldiers without a cause
It's Napoleon without a horse
Can't avenge your biggest loss
The 47 Ronin
Rather die in honour than be broken
A code forgotten for the soda pop
Locked and loaded no one to call the shot
Warriors without a war
Soldiers without a cause
It's Napoleon without a horse
Can't avenge your biggest loss
The 47 Ronin
Rather die in honour than be broken
A code forgotten for the soda pop
Locked and loaded no one to call the shot
Ever heard the one about the samurai with a blunt knife that could cut a guy?
He could come up with a humbug to kill without touching a challenger 'cause his mind
sharp as an assegai.
Only battle he lost was to character,
Couldn't manage what was asked of him,
Took the compromise embarrassed to look us all in the eyes
Now he's down and out lost in the palace
