Burn Hollywood Burn Public Enemy, Ice Cube, Big Daddy Kane

[00:00.13] Burn Hollywood burn, I smell a riot
[00:02.09] Goin' on, first they're guilty, now they're gone
[00:04.50] Yeah, I'll check out a movie
[00:06.09] But it'll take a Black one to move me
[00:08.07] Get me the hell away from this T.V
[00:10.17] All this news and views are beneath me
[00:12.14] So all I hear about is shots ringing out
[00:14.35] About gangs putting each other's head out
[00:16.25] So I rather kick some slang out
[00:18.33] All right fellas, let's go hang out
[00:20.38] Hollywood or would they not
[00:22.19] Make us all look bad like I know they had
[00:24.40] But some things I'll never forget, yeah
[00:26.75] So step and fetch this shit
[00:28.50] For all the years we looked like clowns
[00:30.57] The joke is over, smell the smoke from all around
[00:33.07] Burn Hollywood, burn
[00:33.88] Burn Hollywood, burn
[00:34.98] Burn Hollywood, burn

[00:51.26] Now every single bitch wanna see me
[00:53.28] Big Daddy is smooth, word to mother
[00:55.45] Let's check out a flick that exploits the color
[00:57.62] Roaming through Hollywood late at night
[00:59.83] Red and blue lights what a common sight
[01:01.78] Pulled to the curb, getting played like a sucker
[01:03.98] Don't fight the power, the motherfucker
[01:05.95] As I walk the streets of Hollywood Boulevard
[01:08.46] Thinking how hard it was to those that starred
[01:10.55] In the movies portraying the roles
[01:11.95] Of butlers and maids, slaves and hoes
[01:14.00] Many intelligent Black men seemed
[01:16.07] To look uncivilized when on the screen
[01:18.12] Like, I guess I figure you to play some jigaboo
[01:20.38] On the plantation, what else can a nigga do?
[01:22.63] And Black women in this profession
[01:24.38] As for playing a lawyer, out of the question
[01:26.71] For what they play Aunt Jemima is the perfect term
[01:28.84] Even if now she got a perm
[01:30.92] So let's make our own movies like Spike Lee
[01:32.71] 'Cause the roles being offered don't strike me
[01:35.07] As nothing that the black man could use to earn

[02:02.62] "Yeah, I'm wid it
[02:03.47] You mean somebody like Huey P. Newton or H. Rap Brown, right?"
[02:06.31] "Well, it's a servant character that chuckles a little bit, and sings"
[02:09.93] "Yo, man, what? That's bullshit"
[02:12.45] "Hey Cube, Kane, Flav, listen
