When The Whip Comes Down

Yeah, papa told me I was crazy to stay

I was gay in New York which is a fag in L.A

So I saved my money and I took a plane

Wherever I go, they just treat me the same

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

Yeah

Yeah, I go to 53rd Street and they spit in my face

But I'm learning the ropes, yeah, I'm learning a trade

The East River truckers are churning with trash

I got so much money but I spend it so fast

When the whip comes down (Yeah!)

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the shit hits the fan

I'll be sitting on the can

When the whip comes down

Yeah, some called me garbage

When I'm sweeping up the street

I never roll and I never cheat

And I'm filling a need, yeah, I'm plugging a hole

My mama's so glad I ain't on the dole

When the whip comes down (Yeah!)

When the whip comes down (Yeah!)

When the shit hits the fan

I'll be sitting on the can

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

Yeah, go ahead, sugar

Yeah, baby, when the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

I'll be running this town, I'll tell you

When the shit hits the fan

I'll be sittin' on the can

When the whip comes down (Yeah!)

Why, baby, why, why baby?

I'll tell ya, I'll be running this town

Yeah, when the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

Yeah, when the whip comes down
