Текст песни
I was washing dishes the other day
When I broke my favorite coffee mug
On purpose
Just to give myself a reason to feel blue
Just to make something outside, match
My inward point of view
I logged in to Amazon, I ordered ceramic glue
To try and piece together, just when
I lost you
Was it when you took my words and used them for your own
Or was it when I took my oath
The day that you were born
It's just another chip off the block
We don't land far from where we drop
It's just another chip off the block
Like father, like son, the boy is lost
It's just another chip off the block
Sipping from the paper bag on the floor of a Motel Six
Six young actors
Passing around a spliff
President Obama came on the tv screen to say
I killed Bin Laden for you
Don't that just make your day
If I became a soldier, I reckon I'd've shot that fucker dead
But I became a clown so I guess I'll
Bear witness instead
A crown of thorns that's drenched in blood or a chest that's full of lead
We beamed with pride, deep inside
When we carted out the head
It's just another chip off the block
Another war, another battle fought
It's just another chip off the block
Another mother's son shipped off to get shot
It's just another chip off the block
Sitting on a rooftop in the boiling sun
Tar fumes hovering
Just trying to scarf down lunch
A cloud looks like a cactus in the crystal blue
There's movement down below us
Fuck, it's you know who
They want to see our papers, and I know that I've got mine
But Domingo's daddy
He don't have his in line
It's no use fighting, with their guns and masks and locks
A good man taken
Another chip without a block
It's just another chip off the block
We don't land far from where we drop
It's just another chip off the block
A few hundred miles to lose all you've got
It's just another chip off the block
It's just another chip off the block
It's just another chip off the block
