(all quiet except for the drum beat)
Riding a horse made of Cyprus trees,
Clicking up a tree robbing its leaves
Sailing on a raft throughout the seven seas
I know something you don’t know
It takes a seed for an ounce to grow
Ashes, Burbank, new york fire
Looking into my lyrics becoming a liar
Joking jokers smoking smoke
Got the drug addicts doing dope
Logging on myspace
Lines of Coke
Green Geometry patterns
But no one is reading
I hear your ear bleeding
(tambourine enters here along with bass and guitar)
I lack uniformity
I have a disease
I am curing myself with out the aid of leaves
No ergot or caffeine, no pot that smokes
No sparks that fly out of the dope
I don’t make sense, so help me shout
My friends love life, but I want out
Penguins in the artic, complain no more
They have submarines that line across the shore
Stealing all their fishes, fucking with their bitches
Radio head gets no play
Hollywood lies when they tell you that you are gay
Words with a meaning, meanings that lie
Look into them, marmalade pie
Steel bends water, water rusts iron
Brown note dark matter
I am in a rut
Listen to my story
And don’t give a fuck
You buy albums cuz they are clever and witty
And the one on the cover looks so pretty
How can I make it, if you all cant relate
I live in America, pile more on my plate
They say I am wrong
And then they call it fate
I am here but my mind is late
I want to rise but I’m falling all over
I have little luck, no four leaf clover
(really slow and soft/hard to hear)
They say all pot smokers live in Amsterdam
They say all the terrorists follow islam
They said all the jews were to blame
They made them look all insane
Repeated offences made in the past
We conquered time but it never lasts
We still have shotguns that make the blasts
We still have lawyers that help us make the dash
We bribe the police to make that cash
We lie in many civilizations caught this clash
How can you sleep at night?
(all resumes here)
Back to the song
Did you think I forgot
Were you glad that I drifted
Did it faze you a lot?
Did it boggle your mind
Until you were all messed up
Do still even care
About King tut?
Hello little crucifix
Piecing through jesse’s lips
And he don’t know about those
Hieroglyphics
Too complex
He has a complex
In a duplex
Rip that spandex
Wear that rolex
Got it in my car
You know where you are
Mama where I’m a star
(guitar solo *slide guitar recommended)
(drums overlap to compliment the solo)
(vocalizing over the slow part of the solo)
(bass tunes out to show the solo in its entirety)
(tambourine stops then enters after solo)
Yet they say
I am reckless brother,
That I cant even relate
I cant exercize or stay in shape
That I spend my time doing drugs that listen
I forgot the bathroom, I’m gonna piss in the kitchen
I forgot the chorus so I lead to the end
The little path by the bedroom to the den
Riddled with roses, and ballons and such
Everything I knew, its all run amuck
Life goes on all because of a little buck
I pour out my soul and my feeling for this shit
I love everything but life has me in a flint
Between two stones, pressed against me hard
I want to fight back but hands are barred
Steppin on glass those little shards
I’m all tied up, in the front yard
When the tv was on
They had me preoccupied
Look around you, they all have lied
So Tonight, tonight, is the end
I say unto you, G’night my friend
(slowly fade away then combine all together really quick for 2-5secs)
