Artist/Band: M.I.A.
Lyrics for Song: 20 Dollar
Lyrics for Album: Kala [2007]



War, war, war

Talking 'bout y'all is such a bore

I'd rather talk about moi

Now do you know the cost of AK's up in Africa?

20 dollars ain't shit to you, but that's how much they are

So they gonna use the shit just to get far

Is gold, diamonds helping ya'?

Don't you like my bandana?

My stains hang low on my shirts like ay-ay-a

Monkey brains and banana

I'll hit you with my antenna

I put soap in my eye, make it red, so I look raw



So I woke up with my holy Qur'an and found out I like Cadillac

So we're shooting till the song is up

Little boys are acting up

And baby mothers are going crazy and the leaders all around cracking up

We go rich, we fry

Price of living in a shanty town just seems very high

But we still like T.I.

But we still look fly

Dancing as we're shooting up and looting just to get by



With your feet on the air and your head on the ground

Try this trick and spin it, yeah

Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it

And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind?

Where is my mind?

Where is my mind?



War, war, war

Who made me like this?

Was it me and God in co-production?

My devil's on speed dial every time I take the wrong direction

All I want is one thing and that is what you got

Sometimes I go lose my mind then I feel numb

There's twentyfour hours in a day

I used to spilt it eight, eight, eight

Eight work

Eight sleep

Eight for play

Now I give it all it takes

People on the Internet

A new life for the intellect

People judge me so hard 'cause I don't floss my teeth set

I was born out of dirt

Like I'm porn in a skirt

I was a little girl who made good with all that I blurt

I put people on the map that never seen a map

I show 'em something they ain't never seen and hope they make it back



With your feet on the air and your head on the ground

Try this trick and spin it, yeah

Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it

And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind?

Where is my mind?

Where is my mind?



With your feet on the air and your head on the ground

Try this trick and spin it, yeah

Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it

And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind?
