Ah na na na, ah na na na na…

While you’re burning away
The things going down
You got to move
You got to move
Get out!
While you’re burning away
The things going down
You got to move
You got to move
Get out!

There’s a pirate in the water
There’s a price to pay tonight
On the dock, the sea looks smooth
But it’s tainted in the light
Thrown out the hooks, you’re sunken into
Don’t let ‘em take you like the
Buccaneers do
We on the look, we trying to get through
You fumigated, hoped to kill them off too

While you’re burning away
The things going down
You got to move
You got to move
Get out!
While you’re burning away
The things going down
You got to move
You got to move
Get out!

Ah na na na, ah na na na na…

Trying to make it to the harbor
Racing time against the light
Telling me you got much to lose
Still you’re ruthless with your life
Come in the dark
They pillage right through
Don’t let ‘em take you like the
Buccaneers do
Right through the heart
They’ll tear you in two
Then ride the vessel
That they turned you into

Get out!
While you’re burning away
The things going down
You got to move
You got to move
Get out!
While you’re burning away
The things going down
You got to move
You got to move
Get out!
While you’re burning away
The things going down
You gotta gotta move
Going to bring you down
Get out!

Santigold

Santi White (born September 25, 1976), better known by her stage name Santigold (formerly Santogold), is an American singer, songwriter, and producer. Her debut album Santogold was released to positive reviews in 2008. Her second album Master of My Make-Believe was released in April 2012.

As a solo project with a revolving door of members, the heart and face of Santigold is vivacious frontwoman Santi White. White and John Hill, her former counterpart from ska-punk band Stiffed, use their common backgrounds as production-savvy musicians to make bombastic, bass-oriented songs that fuse punk, reggae, grime, and indie rock with electro.

Little known fact is Santigold’s involvement in the music scene before she was Santigold. Here Black Thought and Dice Raw tell us how they knew her back in the day.
