It Takes Time To Build Lyrics

    If you don't like the news then press eject
    Baby Davis getting older can't take a rain check
    It's time to let'em know what we expect
    Stop building SUV's strung out on OPEC
    Hold up wait up you know we come correct
    You wanna change things up, well hey just get set
    It's easier to sit back than stick out your neck
    It's easier to break things than build it correct
    We've got a president we didn't elect
    The Kyoto treaty he decided to neglect
    And still the US just wants to flex
    Keep doin' that wop we gonna break our necks

    It takes a second to wreck it
    It takes time to build
    You gots to chill

    Hate filled people wanna keep us in check
    Tearin' down each other is what they expect
    If you want love well hey that's a bet
    We've got to give before we can get
    Waiting like a batter who is on deck
    When it's time to wreck shop then shop I'll wreck
    So let's calibrate and check our specs
    We need a little shift on over towards the left
    I don't really know but I suspect
    I think it's due time that we inspect
    How they get their information and their facts are checked
    Another press conference someone's talking out their neck

    It takes a second to wreck it
    It takes time to build
    You gots to chill

    So step up to the window and place your bets
    Is the US gonna keep breaking necks
    Maybe it's time that we impeach Tex
    And the military muscle that he wants to flex
    By the time Bush is done what will be left
    Selling votes like E-pills at the discotheque
    Environmental destruction and the national dept
    But plenty of dollars left in the fat war chest
    What the real deal why you can't connect
    Why you hating people that you never met
    Didn't your mama teach you to show some respect?
    Why not open your mind for a sec?

    It takes a second to wreck it
    It takes time to build
    You gots to chill
