Sabotage Lyrics

Artist: Beastie Boys
Album: Ill Communication

I Can't Stand It I Know You Planned It
But I'm Gonna Set It Straight, This Watergate
I Can't Stand Rocking When I'm In Here
Because Your Crystal Bal Ain't So Crystal Clear
So While You Sit Backand Wonder Why
I Got This Fucking Thorn In My Side
Oh My, It's A Mirage
I'm Tellin' Y'all It's a Sabotage
So Listen Up 'Cause You Can't Say Nothin'
You'll Shut Me Dow With A Push Of Your Button?
But I'm Out And I'm Gone
I'll Tell You Now I Keep It On And On
'Cause What You See You Might Not Get
And We Can Bet So Don't You Get Souped Yet
You're Scheming On A Thing That's A Mirage
I'm Trying To Tell You Now It's Sabotage
Why; Our Backs Are Now Against The Wall
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage
I Can't Stand It, I Know You Planned It
But I'm Gonna Set It Straight This Watergate
I Can't Stand Rockin' When I'm In This Place
Because I Feel Disgrace Because You're All In My Face
But Make No Mistakes And Switch Up My Channel
I'm Buddy Rich When I Fly Off The Handle
What Could It Be, It's A Miracle
You're Scheming On A Thing; That's Sabotage

by Lol on 6/11/2008 7:58pm

Best Song on Rock Band for Bass EVER.
by Tiny on 6/14/2008 2:50am
Some of these lyrics are not correct. 7th line should be Oh my GOD, it's a mirage... Also There is a whole series of lines missing. A rising crescendo of hey y'all its a sabotage that gets repeated several times. Also the 2nd to last line should be What could it be, It's a mirage, not Miracle. Someone needs to fix this....
by Suicide on 7/2/2008 2:44pm
Sabotage rocks, And Edwardo it's not on GH3 it's on rockband :O
by Shadow on 7/4/2008 3:41pm
Hey Suicide, it's also on GH3 :O

Awesome song. Was this back when they were a rock band, or...?
by somebody on 7/15/2008 9:55am
this is their best song, they made it when they were a rock band then they ruined themselves later
by shortman on 7/17/2008 4:54pm
awesome song easy on gh3 and rockband
by Charles on 7/31/2008 3:00pm
The Beatie's started out as a punk bad called The Young Aboriginies and switched to rap. However, this song was made long after there success in rap despite an ill-informed earlier post. Sabotage was on their fourth album and released in 1994. That was 8 years after their debut album and 12 years after their first EP.

i like ths song its gd nd the rhythms hard.
by RogerRamjet on 8/10/2008 10:50am
Beastie Boys work so much better like this. Even though Paul's Boutique is a brilliant album, when they go back to using the instruments they were meant to play, it all works so much better...
by GailPower on 8/11/2008 9:49pm
At one time I despised the beastie boys, but over time have come to appreciate them and even dig their music now. They are certainly UNIQUE-& I bet they're A TRIP live!
by Kodaman269 on 8/30/2008 7:54pm
This is an AWESOME song.

BTW, this IS on Guitar hero 3, you have to unlock it in Co-op mode

Actually Theo. The Beastie Boys were a Punk band before Hip Hop. I checked out the switchfoot version. ERRRM. NEVER AS GOOD AS THE ORIGINAL. AND THEY REPLACED THE SWEAR WORDS. WTF. BUNCH OF PUSSIES. OH BETTER NOT SWEAR. MUMMY MIGHT SPANK MY BOT BOT. IF YA GONNA DO A COVER AT LEAST FUCKING DO IT RIGHT

M.C.A (Adam Yauch) died today. R.I.P bro
by crowbar on 6/10/2012 3:00pm
to rocky2 you're a fucking idiot if you think Switchfoot are better than the originals. And yeah, without the swear words its not the same song
by hello on 9/3/2012 12:41pm
Uniquely awesome. One of the few bb songs sung almost entirely by just one of them - horowitz.
RIP Yauch
by ThatPostageStamp on 5/16/2013 8:43am
Im not even from the generation which this was famous in and i still love it. Its just an amazing song.
I notice the lyrics are off though...
by Kernalgohd on 6/18/2013 5:01pm
Dont listen to beastie boys for the vocals, just ignore it and listen to the good part.
