  • The Bario starts two streets over
    Miguel, he's a friend of mine
    With brick we've built a reputation
    Like dry ice in the summertime

    Now all you need's an electric razor
    A magic bullet and a grassy knoll
    The whole world's just a little oyster
    To Snow White and the Poisoned Apples

    I woke up in the age of wires
    I fell asleep at the dusk of man
    Now I'm cold,
    Fingers crossed in the Promised Land

    But you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    No you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    No you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    All souled out, in heaven

    The Bario starts two streets over
    Monsay, she's a friend of mine
    Keeps the peace like a whistle blower
    Flying kites in the wintertime

    Magic carpet is the transportation
    Went to the moon in a soda can
    Not all my boys believe in science
    Stretching truth in the Promised Land

    But you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    No you won't be getting in
    No you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    It's souled out, in heaven

    You know by now
    You know by now
    You know by now
    That you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    That you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    No you won't be getting in
    It's souled out, in heaven

    No you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    No you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    No you won't be getting in
    (You know by now)
    To heaven
    (You know by now)
    To heaven
    (You know by now)
