Homeboy Sandman, John Robinson, Daniel Joseph - The Things They Carried lyrics

It goes 1, 2, turn it up empty your pockets
1, 2, turn it up empty your pockets
1, 2, turn it up empty your pockets

Unlimited monthly 89, just went up from 81
79 from 80 bucks four leaf clover, lady luck
Flyers to the party 'cause they're paying us
Sharpie 'cause I'm famous
Not a ticket stub from Citi Stadium hey
Maybe berries, maybe nuts
Maybe breakfast maybe lunch
Pages rich with statements on the mania
Flea collar, protection from the mangy mutts
Parading with rabies through my radius woooo
Sony Discman for traveling distances
Pictures of my sister's kids
Some pamphlets from some
Baptists or methodists
Adventists or something of that
Nature make unconvincing
Cases for taking Jesus as my savior
Cell phone so played out it might
As well be a pager
A pen that's mightier than a saber
The pockets of a promulgator of flavor
An artist every party favors
All types of party favors
It goes 1, 2, turn it up empty your pockets
1, 2, turn it up empty your pockets
1, 2, turn it up empty your pockets
Yo jr what's in your pockets?

Ascap Membership card
Small pad and pen for abstract messages God
Some spare change for the pan handle
City scramble timing is everything
Frankincense oil he refines so heavenscent
Receipts by the bundle
A business exec, yet on the humble
New technology what has this world come to?
Iphone by apple the new mobile office
Usually holding mints though life is like
A box of chocolates pa
It don’t stop 'til the pockets are
FAT like Show & A
He’s a soldier for the culture who’s still
Holding the weight of the world
Without complaints it’s real
Of course he still hold mics God
That of stainless steel
Got a lot on my mind can’t
Let it weigh me down
Airwave Air Raid they gotta play me now!
Walking with ancient tablets to civil
Ways of the savage in pursuit of happiness
Help build the status of the average cats
It goes 1, 2, turn it up
What's in your pockets? 1, 2, turn it up
What's in your pockets? 1, 2, turn it up
What's in your pockets?

Brass knucks tucked to the side
Sand said D no ruckus applied
Flyers for shows some lames, some pros
Got a pocket with a wallet
Full of nobody knows
City Subway Stubs - downtown bound
With an ipod bumping like "how that sound?"
My keys, no ignition back of the Levis
Past due tuition?
Gotta half a ticket when the
Knicks tossed the Pistons
Nickles and dimes for my loose cigarettes
That I puff before a mission
Three pennies for luck, quite superstitious
Hit list buried right beside
My little wish list
Three jelly fish, one big bowl
Swimming through my threads right
Before a show how it go
Left side make noise right side make noise
Couple sizes big like it's fitted
For the big boys carry the torch
Thank my predecessors
Yes you're in the pockets of a
Man who thought it meant more
Tell it how it is you know it was
I'ma do it till the rabbit ears hold fuzz
(and that the things they carried 3D EMCEES
The team's legendary

The things they carried
3d emcees the team's legendary

That's the things they carried

The team's legendary

Things they carried)
