lyrics

Everybody say yeah!
Put your hands in the air!

It’s BAS time!
It’s BAS time!

Hitting that ass like a superstar
Cruising round the city in a Jaguar
You’re ten percent poorer than you think you are yeah

It’s BAS time!
It’s BAS time!

The tax man wants you to be part of his crew
It’s too good to be true
Working it out with your pens and erasers
On a quarterly basis

It’s BAS time!

It’s a good thing
And it never ends
In only three months
You get to do it again
Divide everything
That you spend by ten

Oh yeah
Listen up
We’re gonna talk about a different number now
A lot curvier
A lot slidier
A lot rounder

Sweet point nine
Look at its curves

Sweet sweet point nine

It’s like a skinny man with a big head
Looking at a rock
Oh yeah
Take me there

Sweet point nine

All this dividing
When we should be
Multiplying
By sweet point nine
Sweet point nine

Let’s use the X sign
Instead of the
Dots with the line

Oh take me there

Let’s have fun
Let’s get really really accurate baby
Point nine one
Recurring
Recurring
One one one
Keep it recurring

Take me closer
To infinity
Closer
Closer
Take me closer
Take me closer
Take me closer
Take me closer

Raise all your invoices!
Shout out with your out voices
B-A-S!
B-A-S!
B-A-S!
B-A-S!
B-A-S!
B-A-S!
B-A-S

Assassin's Creed: Syndicate
by Austin Wintory

supported by 21 fans who also own “BAS Time”

Despite the lighthearted bombastic intentions of the main campaign, Syndicate turned out to be a very intimate and melancholic experience that leaves me with more farsickness than anything else. Austin's soundtrack played a huge role and every time I hear its wonderful verves, it brings me back to these beautiful feelings. Lovely music all throughout. replicant_hazard
