Prodigy Lyrics
Music For The Jilted Generation


Intro (Voice by Pierce Brosnan in the The Lawnmower Man)

So, I’ve decided to take my work back underground
To stop it falling into the wrong hands

Break & Enter (Vocals by Baby D)

Bring it down to earth (Note)
Bring it down to earth
Bring it down to earth

Their Law ("What were dealing with here..." sample taken from the film Smokie And The Bandit; Other vocals by Clint Mansell, the ex-frontman of Pop Will Eat Itself)

What were dealing with here is a total lack of respect for the law
Fuck the law but you cant beat the law (Note)
Fuck the law but you cant beat the law
Fuck the law but you cant beat the law
Fuck em and their law

Crack down at sundown
Fuck em and their law

(Their Law Page)

Were going full throttle (Distorted) (Note)>

Voodoo People ("The voodoo, who-do..." vocals by Gylan Kain)

Magic people, voodoo people

Voodoo

The voodoo, who-do-what-you-dont-dare-to-people
The voodoo, who-do-what-you-dont-dare-to-people

The voodoo

The voodoo, who-do-what-you-dont-dare-to-people
The voodoo, who-do-what-you-dont-dare-to-people

Voodoo people, magic people, voodoo people, magic people

Speedway (Theme from Fastlane)

Liam, someone on the phone for you
Oh, fucks sake, tryin to write this fucking tune, man

I got the poison, I got the remedy
I got the pulsating rhytmical remedy
I got the poison, I got the remedy
I got the pulsating rhytmical remedy
I got the poison, I got the remedy

I got the pulsating rhytmical remedy
I got the poison, I got the remedy
I got the pulsating rhytmical remedy
I got the poison, I got the remedy

No Good (Start The Dance) (Female vocals: Kelly Charles)

Come on, who can, who can, can hear the bass drum? (Distorted)
Come on, who can, who can, can hear the bass drum?

Youre no good for me
I dont need nobody
Dont need no-one
Thats no good for me

Youre no good for me
I dont need nobody
Dont need no-one
Thats no good for me

Youre no good for me

My mind is glowing
My mind is glowing

Please tell me if you have any corrections to these lyrics!

Notes:
1) Break & Enter: For quite a while, I was in the belief that the lyric was Break it down to earth, but then when I listened to the original sample (in the Baby D song called Casanova), I realized that it's in fact Bring it down to earth (the singing is much clearer in the original)

2) Their Law: several people told me that they thought it was I’m the law, but you can’t beat the law. Sorry, but I disagree with this - just listen to this audio sample (taken directly from the CD) - I even amplified the first Fuck the law part, so that you’ll hear it easier. BUT there’s a possibility that in some cases the live version has I’m the law, as was reported by some who went to their American gigs in June 1998. If you are still uncertain, just email me.

3) Full Throttle: To be going full throttle means to be going at full speed.

4) One Love: It’s not absolutely sure the muezzin (a man who calls others to the mass) is saying Allah, but very likely (please don’t write me emails telling me he’s saying One Love - you must admit it would be quite strange from the mouth of an Arabic muezzin, wouldn’t it?) But as it sounds like One Love in English, the song was given this title.

5) Claustrophobic Sting: The expression claustrophobic sting probably means an attack of claustrophobia (an abnormal fear of being in enclosed or small places).
