Fabulous mix of funk, blues and African influences in this ironic song by the flamboyant musician from Oakland, California about greed, excess, commodities and racial prejudice inspired in style by Taj Mahal’s idea of the “gods of Africa meeting the ghosts of Mississippi”. Fantastic Negrito’s real name is Xavier Amin Dphrepaulezz, and this song is also the first taken from his forthcoming album White Jesus Black Problems out in June on Storefront Records.
I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself
I say, "What's going on with this hell?"
I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself every day
What's going on with this hell?
Oh, that bank is a serial killer (Yeah)
Trying to build more prisons for your children (Yeah)
That doctor's a drug dealer (Yeah)
Gotta make a profit, gotta make a killin' (Yeah)
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Evеrything goes to the highest biddеr
Everything goes to the highest bidder

I say, "What's going on with this hell?"
I fake the same way that you do every day, the same way that you do
I say, "What's going on with this hell?"
Technology just feeds the dead
Fantasies that live inside your head (Wait a minute!)
Wait, now you can't go
Wait, now you can't go
Wait, now you can't go home no more
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder
We got to have to turn it up
We got to have to turn it up
We got to have to turn it up
We got to have to turn it up
I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself
I say, "What's going on with this hell?" (We got to have to turn it up)
I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself
I say, "What's going on with this hell?" (What's going on with this hell?)
Doctor
Drug dealer
Fake healer
Fate sealer, oh, ooh-yeah
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest bidder)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest bidder) …
