lyrics

(Intro)

(Verse)
Lying around consuming the breeze
Never could I stay like this without fees
Looking for the key and looking for peace
Looking for Love who’s looking for me

I just got work, got a bundle got a stack
Stack of paper on my desk
It got me hunchback
And I don’t really know about when it’s gone go in
All I know is the demands from people growin’

(Chorus)
They just want to take the hands from me
Take the hands a take the hands a take the hands from me

Hold his hands and block his face then take the bands from he

Held my hands and blocked my face then took the bands from me

From what appears to be genuine sympathy

Held my hands and blocked my face then took the bands from me

Hold his hands and block his face then take the bands from he

Take the hands a take the hands there goes the robbery

(Verse)
Mm said a

Time to overstand and see
Time is everything
Amorcita said to me
Speaking on the mic
Someone cut the feed

Check,check, yo

Excuse me, this is somewhere I don’t want to be
Heat guided missile aimed directly at my feet
Woo jumped immediately out my seat
Woo time to make a move, telepathy

(Chorus)
They just want to take the hands from me
Take the hands a take the hands a take the hands from me

Hold his hands and block his face then take the bands from he

Held my hands and blocked my face then took the bands from me

From what appears to be genuine sympathy

Held my hands and blocked my face then took the bands from me

Hold his hands and block his face then take the bands from he

Take the hands a take the hands there goes the robbery

(Verse)

Mm said a

Projects finished
Me go soon me hope
Manager wanting to call and give me more

Drain me little bit a drain me drain me quite a lot
He get too tired got to go and rest up on his cot
And everyone they try to take the hands up off his watch
They yanking on the crown they try to dial it up a notch
They tugging on the bands so now he’s staring at the clock
So everytime he move he lugs around a heavy trot
He digs into a bezel and gets ticked when people tock

(Chorus)
They just want to take the hands from me
Take the hands a take the hands a take the hands from me

Hold his hands and block his face then take the bands from he

Held my hands and blocked my face then took the bands from me

From what appears to be genuine sympathy

Held my hands and blocked my face then took the bands from me

Hold his hands and block his face then take the bands from he

Take the hands a take the hands there goes the robbery

(Key)
They tried the bands the face and hands away from me
Make the time for you, you know you don’t want to deplete
Time will never freeze it’s only turning up degrees
Too busy getting baked you never see

From what appears to be genuine sympathy

Held my hands and blocked my face then took the bands from me

Hold his hands and block his face then take the bands from he

Take the hands a take the hands there goes the robbery

They walking round with masks upon their face
