Scritti Politti – The Boom Boom Bap Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 16 Second

The boom boom bap
The tap-a-tap-tap
Thats the beat of my life.

A wee hard drop
Oh Poppa dont stop
Bittersweet about life.
You know the bar room belles, well theyre calling
You know their perfume smells like blood.
If hooks could kill
Singing dollar-dollar bill
Well thats the beat of my life.

Zig-a-boom kick
Jimmy-jink lick
Thats the beat of my heart.
A come-again cut
Oh but telling you what
Thats the bitterest part.
You know the bar room boys
Well theyve fallen
And juice-joint Jane got high.
If hooks could kill
Singing dollar-dollar bill
On the street of my heart.

To the beat, to the beat, to the beat
Play it over and over again
Play it over and over again
Let me know, let me know, let me know
I am yours and Im ready to go.

The yes-yes-yall
Was the siren call
To come around to my life
They said big beat drum
Here a kitty come come
Thats the sound of my life

The brewski point was calling
I got belly washed blood in my heart
The boom boom bap
The tap a tap tap
Its always dark

Ill wait till December baby
Ill wait till my hands stay still
And then in December baby
Im in for the cure or kill

Hard Times
Sucker M.C.s
Jays Game
30 Days
Wake Up
Hollis Crew
Rock Box
Its Like That

I love you still, I always will.
