The Demo of "DEPORTEE" has essentially the same lyrics as this earlier version of the song
In the Arrivederci Roma nightclub, bar and grill
Standing in the fibreglass ruins watching time stand still
All your troubles you confess
to another faceless backless dress
Schnapps chianti porter and ouzo
Pernod vodka sambuca I love you so
Deportee
Tatty beauty talking in riddles
Rome burns down everybody's on the fiddle
Two thousand dollars for wife and some class
A thousand years drowned in a chaser glass
How I wish that she was mine
I could have been a King in Six Eight Time
Schnapps chianti porter and ouzo
Pernod vodka sambuca I love you so
Deportee
It's a brittle charm but she's had enough
Still she wrote her number on his paper cuff
You don't know where to start or where to stop
All this pillow talk is nothing more than talking shop
When I came here tonight my pockets were overflowing
They took my return ticket without me even knowing
I pray to the saints and all the martyrs
For the secret life of Frank Sinatra
But none of these things have come to pass
In America the law is a piece of ass
I'm a deporteefeaturing George Clinton
So wide you can't get around it
So low you can't get under it
So high you can't get over it
Can't get over it
Ready or not here we come
Getting down for the one which we believe in
[Ice Cube]
Nineteen ninety three much more biiieeeiii ounce
Ice Cube comin with the half ounce
Not just knee deep jeep fulla smog
Atomic dog
Like your behind heard it through the grapevine
How much longer will you be mine?
And I'ma tell ya, I don't like drama
So do I have to put my handcuffs on your mama?
Cuz nothin but did her damn boogie with my crew
But I'd rather be with you, boo
And make you say humdrum, tweedledee dum
Humdrum don't succumb when I'm done, fuckin hicks
One nation under a groove gettin down for the funk of it
Tear the roof of this mother like we did last night son
And hit you with the bop gun
[George Clinton]
Here's my chance to dance my way
Out of my constriction
Gonna be freakin up and down
Hang up really late
The groove I only got
Wish you all be moved
Ready or not, here we come
Gettin down for the one which we believe in
[Hook:]
One nation under a groove
Gettin down just for the funk of it
One nation and we're on the move
Nothin can stop us now
[Ice Cube]
If you hear any noise, it's just me and the boys
Playin with our toys
M-1, cuz everybody's gotta have fun
Under the sun, under the sun
So rough, so tough when I get down
The disco fiend with the monster sound
I wants to get (whistle) when I'm chillin
The bigger the headache, the bigger the pill-in
You let her funk me cuz my funk is the best
Comin from the west
Kickin them hits
We occupied, dedicated to the preservation motion of hips
Hittin them dips, cd skips but I'm straight
As I bounce, rock, skate
Now I'll toast to that
If it's rough, make the girls s
