capo 2 — sounds 2 semitones higher

Verse 1

Man thinks ’cause he rules the earth he can do with it as he please
And if things don’t change soon, he will  
Oh, man has invented his doom
First step was touching the moon

Chorus

Now, there’s a woman  
On my block  
She just sit there
As the night grows still  
She say who gonna take away his license to kill? [= LINK]

Verse 2

Now, they take him and they teach him and they groom him for life
And they set him on a path where he’s bound to get ill  
Then they bury him with stars
Sell his body like they do used cars

Chorus

Now, there’s a woman  
On my block  
She just sit there
Facing the hill  
She say who gonna take away his license to kill? [= LINK]

Verse 3

Now, he’s hell-bent for destruction, he’s afraid and confused
And his brain has been mismanaged with great skill  
All he believes are his eyes
And his eyes, they just tell him lies

Chorus

But, there’s a woman  
On my block  
She just sit there
In a cold chill  
She say who gonna take away his license to kill? [= LINK]

Middle 8

Ya may be a noisemaker, spirit maker
Heartbreaker, backbreaker
Leave no stone unturned
May be an actor in a plot
That might be all that you got
’Til your error you clearly learn

Verse 4

Now he worships at an altar of a stagnant pool
And when he sees his reflection, he’s fulfilled 
Oh, man is opposed to fair play
He wants it all and he wants it his way

Chorus

Now, there’s a woman  
On my block  
She just sit there
As the night grows still  
She say who gonna take away his license to kill? [= LINK]
