The song's on their "There's A Poison Goin' On" CD that came out in '99, I never heard the album but the lyrics are posted on Public Enemy's website, Tim probably heard it since he has the album autographed by Chuck D himself, btw speaking of PE, they're releasing a greatest hits CD that came out today called "Power To The People And The Beats" for $7.99 at certain retail stores and unfortunately their new album "Rebirth Of A Nation" won't come out till '06 now, supposedly there's supposed to be a new album released in this fall "New Whirl Order" through the internet, PE's staying busy, hopefully they go on tour with JJFP at the end of the year, anyway here are the lyrics to that song:

"Swindlers Lust

A Dollar A Rhyme But We Barely Get A Dime

If You Don’t Own The Master

Then The Master Own You

Who Do You Trust From Swindler’s Lust

From The Back Of The Bus

Neither One Of Us Control The Fate Of Our Soul

And Swindler’s Lust

Hickory Dickory Dock Hand In My Pocket

Robbed Me For My Chocolate

Mo Dollars Mo Cents For The Big Six

Another Million Led To Bled Claimin They Innocence

Is It Any Wonder Why Black Folks Goin Under

Cause N-----s Be Sold In Bundles

No Pressure Tell Me Why They Don’t Care

Rap And R & B Pavin The Streets Of Bel-air

From The Sales Of Singers No Longer Here

The Bigger Killer Gets The Bigger Share

Now The Ones I Attack The Negros Got Their Back

And Know 80-20 Is A Whack Contract

Forever Lack The Voice Of Real Black

Stole Rock And Roll And Ain’t Gave It Back

Started Off My Defense

Now They’re The Ones I Defend Against

Who Fell Up Into The Tricks

**** The Fight The Power S---

Get That Chuck D N---- Fixed

And Keep Him Up Outta The Mix

Well Hell Tell Em Chuck Don’t Suck No D----

Be An Ass And The Ass Get Kicked

Hand In My Pocket Robbed Me For My Chocolate

Watch Em Swindle Yo Ass And Turn A Profit

If You Don’t Own The Master

Then The Master Own You

Who Do You Trust From Swindler’s Lust

From The Back Of The Bus

Neither One Of Us Control The Fate Of Our Soul

And Swindler’s Lust

They Don’t Care About Me

They Don’t Care About You

They Don’t Care About You And Ya Crew

Ya Family Neighborhood And Plus

They Don’t Give A Damn About Us

Profit Off The Soul Of Black Folk

Turn Em Into B-----z And N-----s

And Stupid Ass Jokes

Laugh Wit Us Or Laughin At Us

That Is What I’m Guessin

We Interrupt This Program Wit That Question

Laughin All The Way To The Bank

Remember Dem Own The Banks

And Dem G-Damn Tanks

Now What Company Do I Thank

Ain’t This A B----- Heard They Owned Slaves

And A Ship That Sank

If You Don’t Own The Master

Then The Master Own You

Who Do You Trust From Swindler’s Lust

From The Back Of The Bus

Neither One Of Us Control The Fate Of Our Soul

And Swindler’s Lust

This Is For The Blues People In The Delta

This Is For Everybody In The 50’s That Didn’t Get Their Money

Little Richard Gettin Half A Penny A Penny

All The Super Soul Singers Of The 60’s

All The Bands Of The 70’s On The Outside Lookin In

All The People That Didn’t Make A Dime Off Their Session Playin

And Even The Rappers In The 80’s And The 90’s

Still Tryin To Get Paid For What They Put In

If You Don’t Own The Master

Then The Master Own You

Who Do You Trust From Swindler’s Lust

From The Back Of The Bus

Neither One Of Us Control The Fate Of Our Soul

And Swindler’s Lust"

I'm listening to the '99 Haiku D'Etat album, "Hitch" Soundtrack, and MC Hammer's "Too Legit To Quit" lately that I just check out from my library! :dj:
