Come and Take It

[jeff robertson]

I can hear you coming,
I can tell you're on the way.
I hear your engines running
like thunder at the break of day

And if you want my home,
you're gonna have to come and take it.

I hear your soldiers marching
the trample of a thousand feet
I can hear machine guns
killing people in the street

And you want my rifle
you're gonna have to come and take it.

I see a mother dying
lying bleeding in a ditch
I hear her children crying
around your feet you son of a bitch

and if you want my life now
you're gonna have to come and take it.

I can hear you coming,
I can feel you on your way.
I hear your engines running
like thunder at the break of day.

and if you want my life
you're gonna have to come and take it

Come and Take It
by Naked Philosophy

Come and take it
Take my life
I can't even
Leave my wife
Take my freedom
Take my job
Ignore the shouts
Of the angry mob
Take it all
You fucking pricks
I'm so goddamned
Sick of it

Take your homophobia
Take it all away
Take your sexist bullshit
Come and take it all away
Take your oil money
Take it all away
Take your racist paranoia
And throw it all away

Come and take it
It was never mine
You could own me
So now it's time
Take the lines
And draw them wrong
The vote's now yours
Like all along
Take it all
You fucking pricks
I'm so goddamned
Sick of it

Take your homophobia
Take it all away
Take your sexist bullshit
Come and take it all away
Take your oil money
Take it all away
Take your racist paranoia
And throw that shit away

Come and Take It

C-F-C-F
Through the diamond shaped windows
At the top of a hill
C-F-Dm-G
See the city a-glow
Yet impossibly still

F-G-Em-F
Summer or winter
You never can tell
F-G-Em-E7
The future is resting
On your windowsill

Am-F-C-G
It’s a season for growing and I guess that means that it’s a season for pain
Don’t look now but it turns out you were always ready for change
Am-E/G#-C/G-F#dim7-Fmaj7
Your future is cradled in the palm of your hand
E7
So come and take it

Long steel table
Screens all around
Rest your weary body
And see what they’ve found

I guess it’s cliché
To be impressed by the sight
Of what you knew all along
Was hidden inside

It’s a season for growing and I guess that means that it’s a season for pain
Don’t look now but it turns out you were ready always for change
Your future is cradled in the palm of your hand
So come and take it

Have you met my sister?
She's from Baltimore
She's got a house fulla crap
Can hardly find the floor.
She's got junk in the yard
She's got a shack in the back
She's got a storage unit
on the west side of town
That's completely packed.

Well, now, the health inspector
Came by one day
He said, "We're gonna come
And take it all away."
Come and take it, take it all away.

And so the Lifetime network
Called the family
They said, "how'd y'all like
To be on TV?"
We got the cleaners
We got the big ol' van
We got the clinical psychologist
We got the garbage can.

Yeah, the people from Hoarders
Will be there Saturday
They say they're gonna come
And take it all away.
Come and take it, take it all away.

Now I ain't seen my sister
For a couple years or so
But if she's like she used to be
She won't let a damn thing go.

I flew into D.C.
Met my brother Steve
He said "they're already there
They're getting ready to leave."
'Cause there was my sister
Sayin, "this can't go!"
Pickin' through the cardboard boxes
Out on the patio.

Whaddya think
My sister say?
"Nobody's gonna come
And take it away."
Come and take it? Take it away?
Come and take it? Not today!

Come and Take It
Words and music by glennny

What happens on the court stays on the court
When we’re out here you’re my brother
When we’re in there you’re my sworn enemy
21 by 1’s, call your own fowls
And if we ever disagree, the ball don’t lie

If you want the ball, come and take it
If you have the gall, go ahead and try
If you want the ball, come and take it
You just have to coordinate your hand to eye

I’ve got God Shammgod moves
And there’s nothing you can do
I’ve got magic in my fingertips
I’ve got magic that makes you humiliated

And you wonder what happened when I passed you by
You tried to come take it but you were denied
If you have the gall, go ahead and try
You just have to coordinate your hand to eye

Your only skill, is the skill of the flop
But the ball don’t lie
I’ll let you take your shot

If you want the ball, come and take it
If you have the gall, go ahead and try
If you want the ball, come and take it
You just have to coordinate your hand to eye

Fake…..there…….then I go there
You think that I’m there, but you can’t guard me anywhere
Shot!

"Come and Take It" by Mr. Nakazawa's Book of Surprises

It seemed like a good idea
At the time
Now that the clock struck
I want to run and hide
I wanted all the glory
So I paid the price for fame
Now I see the consequence
At the end of the day

When the devil comes
I won't let him come and take it
We made a deal
Now I wanna break it
I still want tomorrow
And every day that comes with it
When the devil comes
I won't let him come and take it

Caught up in the allure
Of the limelight
I didn't realize what went
Into the sacrifice
Now I'm on barren roads
Heading to a nowhere town
Hoping there's a place
Where I won't be found

When the devil comes
I won't let him come and take it
We made a deal
Now I wanna break it
I still want tomorrow
And every day that comes with it
When the devil comes
I won't let him come and take it

Crawling close to midnight
I can smell approaching flames
As I hide in the dark
All I can do is pray
But nobody will hear me
Every word of mine is lost
I had my taste of paradise
Now I must pay the cost

When the devil comes
I won't let him come and take it
We made a deal
Now I wanna break it
I still want tomorrow
And every day that comes with it
When the devil comes
I won't let him come and take it

you don't get this - I'm a human
there are times ...
Maybe someday, maybe never
when I feel okay

angry walking. silent screaming
stupid saves of face
no one looking at my body
hanging out in space

CH: 
and there's a sign on 
my head that says - come and take it

Maybe I ..... I look like
I need it all the time
practically a stereotype - even dead inside

CH/BR
but I need and I cry and I bleed and I die

I sure wish that you knew half the shit I think
while you take everything but the kitchen sink

Come and Take It - roymond

you got your taxes and i got mine
you got your oil, it looks real fine
you got your freedom from suffocating socialistic slime

it’s summer time and I’m eating hot soup
i just turned down the a/c to survive in my room
I think that we’ve been here, I think many times before

now take this
and spread it around
fold it under and into the ground
then plant some modified corn and watch it grow

But when your fever doesn’t go down
and when the answers finally get found
let’s rejoice that perhaps we still ain’t wrong about something

cause who cares about viruses and how they can change
who cares about warming as long as it rains
and who cares about carbon less it’s a credit we can claim

Come and take it from me
if you want it, it’s free
come and take it
come and take it
come and take it from me
