Soon the New Day lyrics

[Intro: Norah Jones]
And nature's game once more begins

[Verse 1: Talib Kweli]
Here we go like, yes yes, ya'll
To the beat, ya'll
Ain't no sleep, ya'll
To the break of dawn
Five o'clock in the morning
We keep rockin' on
The workin' people runnin' like the stop clock is on
We got it poppin' in the meat market
Chicks take a seat, park it
By the bar, so they can meet the vic with deep pockets
And them dudes buy them cars and turn 'em in to sweet objects of desire, 
Big rims and them tires
We finna drop it like it's heavy as hell
The Clan of the Cavebear
Used to use the club to hit and drag her by the hair
Still use the club to get her a martini or a beer
Try to get her home and put the smell of sex in the air
Come through like the Cable Guy, "get 'er done"
That 'ole hit 'n run, turn 'em into bitter ones
Tonight is catch me if you can, you can taste the ginger bread
Ain't nothin' like wakin' up with a stranger in your bed – nope
[Refrain: Norah Jones, Talib Kweli]
Soon the new day breaks the dawn
Tomorrow I'll be like, 
"Where am I?" "What's your name?"
"Gotta go," "I'm glad you came"
But tonight you will be so fun
Maybe you're the one
Soon the new day breaks the dawn

[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
Putting on some Airs
King For a Day
Hard to face your fears, we wear the mask like Cory McKay
You have a ball today
It's all a masquerade
Shorty paint her face like a clown, but can't take away the frown
Found under the make-up
I asked her, "What's your passion?"
Answered, "What's the paper?"
She sleepin' and they don't want her to wake up
Maybe then she'll realize her own beauty
Baby, you a star and not just a star on some dude's home movies

[Refrain: Norah Jones, Talib Kweli]
Soon the new day breaks the dawn
Tomorrow I'll be like, 
"Where am I?" "What's your name?"
"Gotta go," "I'm glad you came"
But tonight you will be so fun
Maybe you're the one
Soon the new day breaks the dawn
[Verse 3: Talib Kweli]
Steppin' out, I got my best outfit on
Gotta get it in
I'm slippin' in the darkness like most of the day is gone
We up all night, I wonder if can hang
We used to hang from a tree, now we hang behind the rope, we V.I.P. 
We do it B.I.G. 
Ain't no need to see I.D. 
The entire scenery shrouded in mystery
Clouded with greenery
Six girls to every three dudes, so you have half a chance
If you ask to have a dance
The ones ready to freak-off don't need no romance
They belong to the sisterhood of the traveling pants
They got them hungry eyes, you know sensual trance
At a glance, the alcohol got you sexually advanced
The truth is so boring, you gotta pretend a little
The antidote is more colorful, the rainbow that end in Skittles
And the quest to trap the cat
The game is your Tender Vittles to get the bruce to say the sky's fallin'
Like you Chicken Little, come on

[Refrain: Norah Jones, Talib Kweli]
Soon the new day breaks the dawn
Tomorrow I'll be like, 
"Where am I?" "What's your name?"
"Gotta go," "I'm glad you came"
But tonight you will be so fun
Maybe you're the one
Soon the new day breaks the dawn
