Born on the Floor by The Make-Up Lyrics

I was born, I was born
I was born, I was born on the floor
X4
I was born, I was born
I was born, I was born on the floor
X4

I was born in 1979
I was just a look in my daddy's eye
I put it into my mama's mind
To push me through her thighs

I was enraged
With the black ops sent by the CIA
I was packing things for Angola;
She said "No, you're just an embryo!"

When I came into this world
I wanted to be premature
I said "Mama, I gotta come out soon!"
I kicked against the womb
I was born in 1961
I was born to be a son of a gun
A hot day in Dallas, my mother's water broke
Contractions started, but I was late to the show

I was born in 1917
When the guns of October sowed my seed
I was born in 1908
When my battleship was sittin' at the dock of the bay

When I came into this world
I wanted to be premature
I kicked against the womb
I said "Mama, I wanna come out soon!"

But by the time I was out
It was twilight; we were shut down
They cut my umbilical cord
And left me there; I was born on the floor

I put that thought
Into my mother's mind
And I put that look
Into my daddy's eye

I said "Mama
You must create
A terrible baby they all fear
Who destroys the State."
She delivered a bundle of joy
So full of righteous hate
But by delivery time
They spanked my behind and it was too late

When I came into this world
I wanted to be premature
I kicked against the womb
I said "Mama, I gotta come out soon!"

But by the time I was out
It was twilight; we were shut down
I was born, I was born
I was born, I was born on the floor

When I came into this world
I wanted to be premature
I kicked against the womb
I said "Mama, I gotta come out soon!"

But by the time I was out
It was twilight; we were shut down
They cut my umbilical cord
And left me there; I was born on the floor

I was born, I was born
I was born, I was born on the floor
I was born, I was born, I was born
Well, I was born, I was born on the floor
Whoa, born
Well I was born on the floor
