Lyrics Escape-Ism (Complete Take) [Complete Take] - James Brown
I
was
talking
to
a
cat
the
other
night,
He
said
what
everybody
is
looking
for,
What
everybody′s
looking
for
today,
They're
looking
for
ESCAPE-ISM.
Heh.
Heh.
Ain′t
it
good
to
you?
(Band:
"Yeah")
You
know
what?
I
love
to
get
down,
Jack.
And
when
I
get
down,
y'understand,
I
don't
have
to
go
into
no
funny
bag...
(mumbling)
say,
that
alcohol,
I
can′t,
y′understand,
yeah.
That's
the
way
I
feel.
You
know,
I
believe
I′ll
get
down
right
about
here.
(BOBBY
BYRD:
"Right
on")
Byrd,
if
I
get
down--
y'know
Byrd,
Byrd′s
gotta,
Byrd's
gotta,
I
mean,
Byrd′s
gotta
out
of
sight
tune
coming
up.
We
gotta
record
for
him
right
here,
y'know.
So
we're
trying
to
get
our
thing
out
of
the
way
before
Byrd
can
get
into
it.
Byrd,
can
we
get
on
before
we--
Is
it
all
right?
Byrd,
do
you
think
it′s
gonna
be
a
hit,
Byrd?
(BYRD:
"Yeah.
I
think
it′s
going
to
be
a
hit")
You
think
it's
gonna
be
a
hit?
(BYRD:
"A
smash.")
I
know
it′s
a
smash.
I
know
it's
a
smash.
Cause
you′re
in
the
thing,
man,
you're
saying
where
it′s
at,
y'know.
It's
gotta
be
a
hit.
You
ready,
Byrd?
Get
DOWN!
HEH!
Ain′t
it
good
to
you.
Ain′t
it
good
to
you.
Ain't
it
good
to
you.
Hahaha!
Heh!
Lookie

What
you
say,
Fred?
(FRED
WESLEY:
"Man,
you
know,
we
better
take
it
on
the
LAM.")
JAMES:
You
better
watch
the
man.
I
don′t
think
they
heard.
What

JAMES:

BYRD!
Come

here,
brother,
let
me

You

too
loud?
(BYRD:
Make

fuss.)
JAMES:
