Luyện nghe bài hát Something in the Way of Things (In Town)

In
In
In

in the way of things
Something that will quit and start
Something you know but stand
Can't know, get along with like
on top of the car
Peering through the for his cue
Something entirely fictitious and
That creeps across your path hallowing evil ways
they were yourself, passing yourself not smiling

The dead guy you saw me talking to is boss
I tried to put a spell on him but his spirit is
I know things you know and you don't know
I saw something in the way of things
Something grinning at me and I wanted to know, was it
Was it so funny it me down the street
everybody like the good humor man
And got the taste of good humor but no ice cream
It was like

Me talking across into the houses
And not seeing the beings around me
With ice picks, you see them
But they looked like important Negroes on the way to funeral
Looked like important jiggaboos on the way to auction
And let them chant the
And use an ivory pointer to count your
Remember Fetchit
Remember Fetchit how we laughed
An all your Sunday school giving flesh and giggling
With the ice pick off his head
Made you anyway

I can see in the way of ourselves
I can see in the way of ourselves
That's why I say the things I do, you it
But it's something else to you, that job
morning when you got there and it was quiet
And the machines were yearning soft you
Yearning for that nigga to come and give up his
Standin' there bein' dissed and and troubled

My mistake is I kept sayin', "That was
God exist"
And you told me, "Nah, it was proof that the do"
But still like I see something, I hear things
I saw words in the white boy's rag
Said he was gonna die poor and
That them walk which you 'cross town
He's gonna die over work

There's garbage on the that's tellin' you, you ain't shit
And you almost it
Broke and all the time
You know some of the words but they ain't the ones
cable back on but ain't nothin' you can see
But I see something in the way of
Something to us stumble
Something get us drunk from noise and to sadness
I see something and something stalking us
Like and thing floating at our back calling us names
You see it and it too

But you say, "It got a to exist
Just like you and if God made it but we got to argue"
And the gon' come down around us
though we remember where the mic is
Remember the Negro at us through the cage
You've what I see too?
The smile that ain't a smile but teeth flying our necks
You see something too but can't call name

"Ain't it too bad" said
it too bad, such a nice boy always kind to his mother
Always say morning to everybody on his way to work
But that last time before he got up and hurt, real bad
I seen him toward his house and he wasn't smiling
And he didn't say hello
But I knew he'd seen something, something in the way of
That it worked on him like it do in
And he kept marching and faster away from us
And never muttered a word
the next day he was gone

You know, what? You wanna know what I'm talkin' about
Sayin', "I've something in the way of things
And how the boys face that day"
Just they took him away
There is in that face and now
all them other faces
And all the many places seen him
Or the sister his child wandering up the street
Remember what seen in your own mirror
And didn't for a second recognize the face, own face
Straining to get out from the glass

your mouth like you was gon' say somethin'
Close eyes and remember what you saw
And what it you feel like
Now, don't you see else
Something cold and
Not invisible but with the shadow
Criss-crossing the old man, squatting by the store
At the corner with is head resting on his folded arms
And the boy that smiled and the he went with

And in my eyes too, a waving
Splitting them into the jet stream of a black with his ass on fire
Or the solemn of where we go to know we gonna be happy
I seen something, I something
And you it too, you seen it too
You just can't call it's
