[ti:Hercules] [ar:Watsky] [al:Watsky] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Hercules (大力神) - Watsky [00:16.09]I know I'm just as strong as Hercules [00:21.28]Because it's wired in my circuitry [00:26.28]And if I'm just as strong as Hercules [00:31.03]You'll see I'm just as strong as Hercules [00:36.15]In 1638 they came from Sweden [00:38.41]Ship shape settlers late looking for Eden [00:41.03]The Delaware tribe wasn't really keen on leaving [00:43.67]So they "bought em out" or slaughtered them quick and got to breeding [00:46.92]1659 they built a fortress [00:49.23]Stationed soldiers and gave them horses [00:51.61]But now their forces were losing their resources [00:53.86]Moving in the living quick as moving out the corpses [00:56.48]Started changing courses when we got the Quakers [00:58.87]And they been running town since Cromwell met his maker [01:01.55]They didn't take pay cut Quakers got their cake up [01:04.05]The paper came triangulating trading with Jamaica [01:06.49]Now in the 1700s they took care of biz [01:09.20]Built the families through some noble marriages [01:11.97]Still in WIlmington doing what their parents did [01:14.47]Living up on 7th street in Mansions they inherited [01:16.98]1800 and in step the du Ponts [01:19.35]Irenee du Pont was fleeing the war in France [01:21.91]He made the jaunt cause apparently murder rate [01:24.49]Was higher for gentle people spitting on the third estate [01:27.09]He started working late he had grand design [01:29.71]And when we cut a couple fingers off the hands of time [01:32.55]The Du Ponts were running under Delaware like panty lines [01:34.86]They built a mill for small explosives on the Brandywine [01:37.93]But gun powder's just as temperamental [01:39.65]As the rich kids with CEO potential [01:42.33]It's essential to compete for our emergencies [01:45.59]Which brings me to a company called Hercules [01:47.65]I hope I'm just as strong as Hercules [01:52.29]I hope I'm just as strong as Hercules [01:57.98]But when it comes to stacking currencies [02:02.85]I'd like to be as strong as Hercules [02:08.02]Hercules Gunpowder started kind of small [02:10.59]Du Pont had it all were sparkling wall to wall [02:12.77]They were ballin in the fall of 1899 [02:15.27]When T C Dupont crawled up the Brandywine [02:17.84]Now Thomas Coleman started as a coal man [02:21.04]In the mines in Kentucky with his old man [02:23.48]Joined whole fam and flipping the strip tease [02:25.79]Went from fig leaves all the way to big cheese [02:28.50]Never got on his knees for the love it won him [02:30.87]From couple of brothers Lewis and Russell Dunham [02:32.74] [02:33.42]They were running sh*t with Coleman's muscle [02:35.98]Lewis wasn't clueless [02:37.10]But Russell's on his hustle [02:38.49]Now brother Lou was Coleman's true blue man [02:40.90]T C would Idea and Lou drew plans [02:43.40]Dupont had seventy percent of GDP [02:45.92]When it came to gun powder and TNT [02:48.49]They bought even bought Hercules [02:49.95]"Scandilous " [02:51.02]Said the government so brought on anti-trust [02:53.52]Litigation and they split business up in three [02:56.16]Into Atlas and Dupont and Hercules [02:58.66]But certainly they were busting heads [03:01.53]Put in work at Hercules then made Russell prez [03:04.22]In 1912 up the road from Dover [03:06.60]My great great grandfather Russ took over [03:09.23]I know I'm just as strong as Hercules [03:14.72]I know I'm just as strong as Hercules [03:19.59]I know I'm just as strong as Hercules [03:24.34]I know I'm just as strong as Hercules [03:28.65] [03:30.04]Because It's written in my history [03:35.17]I know I'm just as strong as Hercules [03:39.98]Russell Dunham we said Daddy D [03:42.13]Or sugar Daddy D to half the family [03:44.60]Ran Hercules as an affable property [03:47.29]Slap on the wrist from capitalist democracy [03:49.98]And so between TC and Papa D [03:52.48]A bit improperly they adopt a monopoly [03:54.87]And instead of dotting the i's and often crossing the T's [03:57.93]They take a walk in the trees and talk and pocket the cheese [03:59.91]And when Russell dropped to his knees his heirs cashed out [04:02.62]Every generation after the shares passed down [04:04.09] [04:05.24](So where's that now ) Split between six ladies [04:07.62]And my mother had the stocks till the 1980's [04:10.44]If Stonewall pays my phone calls [04:13.37]If San Juan fills my scantron [04:15.81]If every molten shower out in Okinawa fueled by smoking powder [04:20.93] [04:22.00]Pays my broken power send my folks the flowers [04:26.43]If it's irrelevant to my intelligence [04:28.49]Gimme a shotgun I'm dropping these pink elephants [04:31.07]I'll take a tranquilizer shot and sell the sedatives [04:33.70]Out in delaware well aware the fella lives [04:36.38](And what if Iwo Jima) [04:38.76]All the skeletons in my closet are dead relatives [04:41.20](And if the Fall of Saigon) [04:44.01]And then I grow up to be another screw up [04:46.51](And if the Tet Offensive) [04:48.92]But if I blow up [04:50.04]It'll be cause they blew up [04:51.48]My mother loves me more than Hercules [04:56.23]My parents work harder than Hercules [05:01.54]But if I think of this as burglary [05:06.56]I know I'm stronger cause of Hercules
