Scowling faces on the rooftops
I count 30, maybe 40 (the orphans)
The other crews don't love 'em
But still, there's plenty of 'em
We can take these wimps
Maybe, but it's still a long way home
You lead, we'll follow
Let me do the talking, be easy
And here comes the leader (looks greasy)
What is this, a late-night cosmetology class?
You must be lost! Can I see your hall pass? Haha!
Someone show these ladies where they have gone wrong
You dare to cross our lawn with your colors on? Get gone!
Easy, easy, we are only passing through
On our way downtown from that meeting in the boogie down
We've got no beef with you
What meeting? (Forget it, it was nothing (what meeting?!)
It was chaos, a waste of time
I'm sensing a little condescension, do you think we're not big time?!
Two three four!
Orphans rise, orphans rise
We got a rep as heavy as the whole west side (the whole west side)
That's right, we woulda been invited to the conclave, guys (we lost our invitation)
Yeah, they write about our rumbles in the New York Post
The New York Post (but someday, the New York Times)
Heavy, heavy! We would not wanna beef with you! (Heavy is right)
We are just so lost and lonely, what do you suggest we do?
Well, as long as you come in peace (we do!)
I can vouch for your safe release (thank you!)
We extend our protection to those we know! (Let's go!)
Wait! In orphan town (in orphan town)
We're known for our compassion when the chips are down (the chips are down)
Oh! And also known for bashin' in our deadly foes (we also f*ck s**t up sometime)
Yeah! If anybody asks, that's how our story goes (our story goes)
We're compassionate bros
Buck-buck-buck-buck-buck-buck-bcack! (Mercy!)
Buck-buck-buck-buck-buck-buck-bcack! (Quit playin' mercy!)
Who is that? (I dunno, but get ready)
Get read (get ready)
Chickens! What a coop full of chickens!
Oh, you talk the talk! Witcha hand on your -!
But you if you let them walk through your turf
Like you're nothing but dirt, you are
Chickens! You ain't orphans, you're -!
They bat their eyelashes and you turn a mess!
Damn, you're brain-damaged! These damsels are not in distress
Hey, I like your vest, you wanna gimme one? (What?)
Did I - stutter, you can get another one, why don't ya gimme one?
Help us get through and I'll see what I can do
I don't want a new one, no, I want the vest off of you (no chance)
Mercy
You really gonna let 'em walk around all through your little territory?
Mercy!
What do you think they're gonna laugh about when they get back and tell the story?
Mercy—
I'm losing my cool (ssh, you ain't never once been cool)
Leave her alone (you don't even know me!)
Take off your colors (it's just our mark, man)
Gimme that vest (it doesn't mean we're at war)
Or we gotta rain down on you (from the rooftops!)
We're walking home
Orphans?! Round up!
Right through these wacks
Thank you (I'm sayin') Let's go!
Warriors, we're gonna rain on you tonight!
Ajax, you still got that bottle of gin? (Yes ma'am)
Cochise, gimme your lighter (ha! Light 'em up)
Now all we need's a piece of fabric (here!)
Let's make their world a little brighter
Orphans rise (orphans rise)
We're here in greater numbers with a big surprise (a big surprise)
Girls! You made us get our weapons now you see what you get
You see what you get!, you see what you get!, you see what you get!
You see what you get when you mess with the glorious—
Orphans, guys! (Orphans rise!)
Oh - they got a Molotov! (Run! Ahh!)
