Radio Suckers Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][B][Em][Bm][Em]
[B][Bm][B][Em]
[B]People,

[Verse 1]
[C]
it's time for the Ice crush
[D]So listen to my words [Em]I bring much
Sense, as I com[C]mence,
my [Em]lyrics in[D]tense
[Em]Your telephoto, break [D]out your big [C]lens
Look, check out the sales charts
My record's kickin',
[D]I'm breakin' P.D.'s hearts
They banned me from
their shows
'Cause they said I'm too hard
But no sell- out, I guess I'm just barred
I [C]ain't changin' mine for no body
They bleeped words
from Doug's LA- [D]DE- DA- DE
I can't [C]get a bleep? What's [D]the deal?
Maybe my words are just
too real
It's not profan[C]ity,
it's just the man and me
He doesn't want [D]you to
see what I see
Doesn't want you to be
what you can be
Word, cen[C]sorship of real[D]ity
[C]Radio

[Verse 2]
suckers never play [Bb]me
[C]Radio [D]suc[E]kers nev[D]
er play [Bbm]me[C][D]
Radio suckers never play [Bbm]me
[C][C#m][C][D]

[Verse 3]
[B]
Suck[C]ers don't, but some do
The real troopers bring the [D]ICE to you
And [C]close friends to me, yeah,
[D]Public Enemy
These stations [C]have high intel[D]lect
They don't pretend to be,
[C]too bourgeois to rock a jam raw
Understand what [D]I'm sayin',
they're down by law
They [C]play the jams that are right,
sometimes not polite
They realize you [D]gotta
get some people uptight
[C]Speak the word,
your voice will definitely be heard
Lie to yourself,
you're destined [D]to be to the curb
Some [C]stations don't care, they'll
never [D]put on the air
Nothin' but commercial junk,
their brain power's impaired
They don't listen or try
to hear what I write
Maybe just think once,
or try some school at night
They're makin' radio wack,
people have to [C]escape
But even if I'm banned,
I'll sell a million tapes

[Verse 4]
[C]Radio [D]suckers[C] nev[D]er pla[C]y me
[D]Radio suckers never play me
Radio suckers never play me
[C][D][C][B]

[Verse 5]
[C#m]I make r[D]ecords for mu[C]sic,
not for the money
To some of you [D]that might sound funny
But I ain't [B]broke, and I don't joke
And my lyrics [D]are known
to make ears smoke
Clear as a gun scope,
I speak the pure [C]dope
Can the radio handle [D]the truth? Nope
[C]Uncut, no edits, no censors
You can get a plastic rapper
[D]from any old dispenser
A penny [C]a yard,
to make a record ain't hard
But to make it mean something,
that's [D]a job
But then we do it, they refuse it
So I tell them duck suckers to cold
go screw it
We shouldn't sell out, we
should just yell out
And get them [C]wack motherfucker[D]s the
hell out
[B][D][B][D][B]

[Verse 6]
[D]
Radio [E]suckers [B]nev[C]er pla[D]y m[B]e[C][B]
[E]Radio[C][E][D][C][D][C]
[D]
suckers never play me
Radio suckers never play me
Radi[C]o s[D]uckers never play[C] me

[Verse 7]
Cruisin' [C]down the street what do I see?
Crash Task [D]Force, L.A.P.D.
[C]Gangs illin', wildin' and killin'
Hustlers on a roll, like they [D]got a million
Girls in [C]the strap and you know that
[D]You know the guys will stop wildin'
if you stop [C]that crap
But you can't,
you [D]want money so bad
You'll jock any[C]thing with
[D]a Gucci tag
You gotta have [C]it,
so the men go get it
Robbin' and stealin', soon to [D]regret it
Livin' [C]in a jail cell,
feelin' [D]like a dumb[C]bell
While you jump the next jock, well
That's reality, that's what I see
Nobody says that you got to [D]agree
Cen[C]sorship [D]that ain't the way to be
I [C]thought you said this country [D]was free?
[C]Ra

[Verse 8]
[Em]dio suckers [C]never play m[Bb]e[C]
Radio suckers never play [Bb]me

[Verse 9]
Tone [C]it down, is what they say to [D]me
The FCC will not allow profanity
[D]Your [C]subject matter's too hard,
make a love song
You better get real, come on
I ain't no lover, I'm a fighter
Hard core radical rap rhyme writer
Pushin' [C]the button,
E does the cuttin'
Everything I say amounts to something
More than [C]a simple rap, I'm too deep [C]for that
I lay my lyrics with logic, press the wax
Play it on your tape deck, feel the effect
If you can't take the heat, eject
But I know you can,
'cause you're an ICE- T fan
No sell- outs here, my man
