Rip It Off by The Duke of Uke and His Novelty Orchestra Lyrics
[Intro]
This is for Grandma
[Verse 1]
It's so obvious that everything is free-a in a rich man's world
Waste not want not, in this most perfectly done world
The rich get fatter while the poor stay thin
The game is rigged and you can never win
[Refrain]
So rip it off, baby! (Ooh, yeah)
C'mon, steal it, yeah! (Steal it)
Just rip it off, baby! (Ooh, yeah)
C'mon, steal it!
[Bridge 1]
And if the fat cats get so blinded with greed and keep the stuff you need
Well you know you gotta do whatever you can
And if they're swimmin' in gold and left you in the cold
Well you know, stick it to the man!
[Refrain]
Just rip it off! Mm, yeah
C'mon, steal it, ye-yeah!
Rip it off, baby, yeah!
C'mon, steal it!
[Bridge 2]
Because the cameras can't see you, the cameras can't see you
The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off!
The cameras can't see you, the cameras can't see you
The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off!
[Verse 2]
Now in the first world, the rich drive by in limousines
You and I, we're just nickeled and dimed; we're just driven to our knees
A hungry man is an angry man, and when the chips are down you do what you can
[Refrain]
You rip it off, baby! (Ooh, yeah)
C'mon, steal it, ye-yeah! (Steal it)
Rip it off, baby! (Ooh, yeah)
C'mon, steal it, yes! (Steal it)
[Outro]
Because the cameras can't see you, the cameras can't see you
The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off!
The cameras can't see you, the cameras can't see you
The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off, just rip it off!
The cameras can't see you, the cameras can't see you
The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off!
The cameras can't see you, the cameras can't see you
The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off! (Just rip it off)

The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off!
The cameras can't see you, the cameras can't see you
The cameras can't see you, so go ahead and rip it off! (Just rip it off)
