What you do is slide the pick and your fingers up and down the fourth string. Changes in pitch are the result of the hand slowing down and speeding.It's kind of like scratching a record. That's it, just those four riffs. Pretty simple huh. Just listen to the song for the beat and the order of all the riffs. Quit it now The microphone explodes shattering the molds Either drop the hits like de la o or get the fuck off the comode Wit tha sure shot Sure to make the bodies drop drop and don't copy Yo don't call this a co-op Terror rains drenchin' quenchin' the thirst of the power dons That five-sided fist a-gon Tha rotten sore on the face of Mother Earth gets bigger The trigger's cold empty ya purse Rally round the family with a pocket full of shells X4 Weapons no food not homes not shoes not need just feed the war cannibal animal I Walk tha corner to the rubble that used to be a library line up to the mind cemetary now What we don't know keeps the contracts alive and movin They don't gotta burn the books they just remove 'em While arms warehouses fill as quick as the cells Rally round the family Pocket full of shells Rally round the family with a pocket full of shells X4 Bulls on parade (a bunch of times)
