Face Down lyrics

(Dead like Elvis)

Check, check, 1-2, check

You know what he's saying?

Face down!

Face down!

Somebody once told him that he wouldn't take Prince through the ringer

Let him go down as a washed up singer

Ain't that a bitch?

Thinkin' all along that he wanted to be rich

Never respected the root of all evil and he still don't to this day, huh

Bury him face down, let the motherfuckers kiss a ass, OK?

Face down!

Face down!

Told them he wanted to sing a song about a black child going buck wild

And they just laughed in his face

Talk to your lawyer but you got no case

What you need to do is keep your place

Next time you pull a card, it better be an ace motherfucker

Or you can lay face down (Face down!)

Face down!

Face down!

Horn

Horn

Bass

Bass

Him and her meaning who I'm singing about

And his psychoanalyst kinda saw the catalyst

As the devil with the blue jeans on, huh

Ain't it kinda funny when you see the dawn?

Sign the name they gave you

But when them motherfuckers turn around ass up, you're what?

Face down! 1-2

Face down! New Power Generation in the house, bury them all

Face down! Yes, oh Lord

Face down!

Orchestra

Orchestra

Orchestra

Face down!

Orchestra

Face down!

It's in his will, I read it

He shot to kill, he said it

For those who know the number and don't call

Huh, fuck all yall

Face down!

Face down!

Face down!
