lyrics
Scifentology II
I rhymed my way out of a place I called home
my face with crossbones underneath
poison, fuck with me in rare form
suddenly airborne in your lungs, breath
I lost friends to death I live with those scars
prey on blood, steering remote control sharks
bonds kept close with xo’s, hearts
my love I send home when far like post cards
soak in a digital bath facin’ a boombox
float in this infinite space ’til my balloon pops
little Yashar wrote a world then he brought it to life
from outside his room you saw his window flickerin’ at night
now its honorable mentions for inventions
I hoped for so hard my palms bled from clenchin’
I don’t wanna be robotic I wanna be aeronautic
I wanna catch the wind, I wanna go back and do it again
this is the moment defined
at this moment in time
in this moment to live
in this moment to die
and the x’s to appear over the eyes of disbelief
trust in faith we keep, we must
stay awake and away from sleep
while robots keep track of the days of the week
we lust to stay awake and away from sleep
until the each night is replaced with a day and a dream
from cloud eight and soundscapes to nine
I put the pressure on space take out pain on time
brass knuckle hands on the clock fightin’ me back
birdcage blockin’ the shots to my glassjaw likely to crack
I’m Yak Ballz, Skywalker the author
masochist on the radio broadcastin’ across borders
I’m from Flushing, QU run shit
mom look I made somethin’ out of nothin’
now I gotta board the mothership, escape the jungle
while this concrete is like quicksand I’m stuck in
I’m like fluorescent melted plastic, bright and damaged
slight of hand is all I need to ignite madness
six billion dollars a month to make’em more radical
six million ways to die for more capital
do not think it can’t be you on the receiving end
caught in an evil web, houseflies don’t make it out alive
chorus*
save me, I’m dyin’ to explode like M80s
flesh and bone shrapnel I’m cupid, arrows connect daily
sailing in open water without a means to navigate
my ends justify what is needed to make it out ok
I teeter on the edge of this knife I’m cut out for this life
I’m built for it no beta versions or prototypes
spent all that I got now I’m livin’ on borrowed time
want me closer to God? tell him tomorrow is fine
in such a dark place bright ideas will never shine
until somebody comes and picks up what we left behind
unlock where the deepest of secrets are kept
and I remember you, you were the teacher’s pet
I must have slipped through a vortex, glad I made it
calibrated to alarm the people they want you to walk dead
seekin’ refuge in my own head
was the backwards fall I took when leapt from the razors edge
chorus*
in a cheap suit with a magnum that only shoots a flower out the end of it
reassemble and stitch me back together again
whenever I self destruct dependin’ on your love
Godzilla meets King Kong gorilla rap
poppin’ milligrams oxygen tank filled with pills and ash
cinematic scenes spliced and grafted
attached to you like backstage passes, I’m manic
move like a pack of wolves food is wild animals
mechanical with a couple of screws loose nothing that can’t handle you
the ulcer in the belly of the beast no enemies
sweep through bodies like venom and amphetamines
a good marriage like Weathermen CC not PC
with a Tec to the screen when the President’s on TV
I take it easy never worry ’bout leaving
die every night then wake up so I don’t need’em to freeze me
now interrupting your regularly scheduled program
while you at home and watching music video’s oh you’re so amped
what about my video? close to no chance
so I had to take matters into my own hands, make up my own plans
shoot my new show on my own I’m going for broke man
now the whole world can see me
I am Yak Ballz and this is Yak Ballz TV
cruisin’ through electric forcefields fumes and
nuclear waste stuck to my shoes for amusement
slashin’ like a boxcutter in Cardboard City
there’s more tags than department stores
carnivores walk the streets with Gucci and studded belts
I hold mirrors to UV’s to see if the sun’ll melt
summer, hell, stinks, garbage
two Papaya dogs and an orange drink scarfed it, incredible
vaporize’em all like tripods when tentacles stomp
destabilized from the medical trauma unit
and I can see clearly now that the media’s muted
my brain is convoluted its gonna take more than a public address
to soothe and subdue it homey
mark of the beast I tattooed it on me
I got suicide girls so you and what army
is gonna put a stop to this army? I’m sorry
chorus*
Yak Ballz TV viewers at home get OCD
season premiere they line up for the screening
and the sky blackens Manhattan is ominous
I put out the signal, satellites transmit through cable boxes
YB down heat like Don Vito
incognito reinvented myself I’m back like Deepthroat
double helix stem-cell the strands so my genes cloned
so I’m fresh in the west, a beast on the east coast
these chemicals in my system affect my mechanisms
runnin’ through a blizzard in snow pants on your television
how far can I bend this to my best interest?
if love is blind I guess I’m one sense less, I’m senseless
walk on water, aquasox the endorser
Molotov on the rocks on order, beam me up
until the next ep or they extend the contract
until the next time we make contact Ballz out
chorus*
buttery biscuits we form to make the Weathertron
and took a side like when the missile hit the pentagon
or Flight 77 your guess is as good as mine
Yak in the box like the Porto John
life is the medium, death is the canvas that I pour it on
smack in the back of a gypsy cab, drab with a city snap
NY up for grabs gimme that
cassette nostalgia perfectly pump the power up
recall the rush stealin’ a Mitsubishi out of luck
takin’ tags puttin’ stickers up click clack mania
man you were the shit back in the day but…
yeah right check chopped liver to lover boys
who aint mature enough, chill suckatoy
unemployed any inklings of such null and void
apologies they want an artist not another droid
I’m like later catch you on the flipside
if you even make it there, I’ll be on the inside
wanderin’ the outskirts, I remember those days
tryin’ to hit the walk-off, slidin’ in into home base
tryin’ to drop the hot shit, standin’ in the cold rain
sounds like it was storebought, army of the most lame
squanderin’ for raploot, all I got was chump change
from back in the days with pea shooters to warheads
now he’s out of range
survey says rap is dead
and it aint my crusade to save it, back to bed
I know all the games they’re playin’ its fact I’m fed
wracked my brain sometimes I’d rather be a hack instead
bashed through the wall like the Kool-Aid Man
hands holdin’ half a chance on doomsday
no escape, Alcatraz
rappin’ in backseats for petty props
trudgin’ through swamps of shit rappers I’m Steve Erwin to deadly crocks
so ambitious, you bitter face grimace
sour patch kids simulate critics
Cardboard City the galaxy is ready for us
WM our destiny is on the horizon we jetting towards it
man your too offensive, well I always speak from the heart
and wear my heart on my sleeve but still they sleep on my art
I got the gasoline container all I need is the spark
and all my people in the front to have a reason to start so
chorus*
I put my smoke signal up when I’m in town
tonight we’re going to tear this place down to the ground
now you put your smoke signal up when I’m in town
tonight we’re gonna tear this place down to the ground
now I put my smoke signal up when I’m in town
tonight we’re gonna tear this place down to the ground
now you put the put the smoke signal up when you’re in town
tonight we’re gonna tear this place down to the ground right now
chorus*
outside the city are now showing their effects on our community.
Disease, terrorism, and mutations are at an all time high.
The President is sending more troops to fight a war overseas while problems remain unsolved here at home.
the ultimate Breed of nuclear human
the gun is the arm, the third of two limbs
they’re testing bombs we’re doomed and I can’t sleep
haven’t you heard? where the fuck have you been?
the kids are losing their learning ability
gaspin’ I’m breathin’ fumes in I’m certain its killin’ me
they’re puttin’ acid in a coke can now my insides are rotten
they say I gotta get with the program
no sir, no mam, no thanks
I won’t be a part of your plan
I’m sayin’ special effects got my family nuclear
tryin’ to stay afloat like ice cream in root beer
Mr. Mayor what’s the resolution for the new year?
gas mask and radioactive proof gear
Mr. President my brother died for you over there
but I’m dyin’ in my room over here breathin’ the air
run for cover the city’s goin’ under
grab the children the women and the others
we can’t live like this so if you love us
please don’t let us suffer
the nuclear society
run for cover the city’s goin’ under
grab the children the women and the others
we can’t live like this so if you love us
please don’t let us suffer
the nuclear society
please don’t let us suffer we need treatment
almost all of my friends have been diagnosed anemic
sis sayin she seen a demon
me in a dark hall I’m seein’ she’s noid she’s still screamin’
I’m thinkin’ I should start fleein’ or go down with the ship I was raised on
Yak chill just stay calm
look at the sky with my eyes wide open
I got cataracts so my eyes are broken
I stay chillin’ with a toxic chick
poppin’ radiation pills when she’s poppin’ shit
hmm now let me see what you think gettin’ hostile is?
NYPD sendin’ 50 shots to kids
or the atom bombs dropped 50 miles from this metropolis
50 years ago tonight they must be hidin’ it
so when the clock strikes 12 the sky burns and rains ash
mother saw it in a dream, smithereens
chorus*
when the bomb drops life as we know it and time stops
we’re through, the red white and blue melt like bomb pops
the mom’s pops and cops can help for nothin’
it’s a wrap for humanity like self-destruction
government aid nothing but afraid responses
men turn to monsters like politicians in conference
those left alive survive through irony
they did it but won’t admit it in this society
try to breathe, forget it your lungs filled with ash
the water is trash, scavengers eat limbs off your ass
no more cash to spend, the end, nada caput finis
at least parts of the streets know the mark of the beast
when each aftershock merk half a block
ghetto’s get leveled like hell on earth but next level
natural disasters match the revelations
fire with brimstones ice age like Flintstones
life as we know it may never be the same again
life as we know it may never be the same again
we can’t go on living and acting as if nothing’s wrong
but if there’s one thing I promise you New York
one thing for sure, I will see you in another lifetime
and you can count on that…
chorus*
there’s a war in my head
there’s a war in my head
there’s a war in my head
I created you, made you what you are pullin’ them all niters
in that small tight room in Queens now you’re a songwriter
nurtured your style all while tuckin’ you under the wing
the only right thing I knew to do for my offspring
my little puppet on strings but now you’re nothin’ to me
I oughta’ cut my head off that would be a luxury
just for me to see you fuckin’ suffer and your dreams shatter
all because your greed got out of hand now nothing really matters
How you so pitifully cynical? this is my critically acclaimed shit
maybe a little criminal but I did it to get us famous
yeah I’m Yak Ballz you just finishin’ last dog
young Yashar tryin’ to be a college grad aw look that’s cute
college boy wants to quit rap to, and join the private sector
who am I to object? perhaps he just wasn’t designed to rep
nah never that, I’ma make’em sign the checks and gimme mega cash
chorus*
It’s like you’re Icarus flying to the sun
I witness it from the eyes in the sockets of the one
who I watched behind lenses borderline schizophrenic become
something of a menace from medicine not meant for my mothers son
and then you came crawlin’ out of my brain
maybe like a baby but I knew you were somethin’ I couldn’t tame
I never gave you a name you just became
and now I can’t drain you out of my head and I’m ashamed of you
you don’t like my ways then fuck you, my state of mind fuck you
lay it on the line come on slit your wrists if you want to
use the pieces of the mirror you looked in when I punched you
just remember you were hooked on them drugs to
no longer a figment of your imagination for entertainment
surreality TV without limited syndication
I always knew this would happen you backstabbin’
’cause your parents won’t have it
the world is ours if we grab it
chorus*
apocalypse in my head I never thought I’d see it
metamorphosis from sort of a marriage to war between us
its all your fault the evil indeed is tearing me to pieces
endearing I swear it insane with a stroke of genius
man what is you thinkin’? I am us
you know the one that the fans love
in the crowd with their fingers pointin’ to the sky singin’ my anthems
my hands commandin’ the slam dancers
Mr. knowitall aint got all the answers
the plan was never for this, no weed, no drinkin’, no pain
no addiction to drunk brain spitshine finish
motherfucker you’re nothing but a gimmick
so I’m endin’ it before you self-destruct in my image
oh look he’s psychic Yak Ballz a failure I like this
in a bathtub full of blood with his two sliced wrists
it hurts you despise me because I’m good as kin
obviously in your skin I embody what you could’ve been
chorus*
and you, you better listen and learn before you get hurt
or worse if you don’t deserve to live
search to find yourself deep inside this hell on earth my friend
I see a patch of hope , no its an antidote cloak
must be a mask, a hoax dressed like a phantom no ghost
I try to laugh and joke to make the time pass go
Is it a trap for most that makes you happy? no broke
like its grassy slope but not grassy up close
transplants in homes like anthills with clones
I’m in the lab alone, I get it spinnin’ like pinwheels
so marvelous in pitch darkness with two sparklers
Sparticus walkin’ through the terrordome armorless
dagger through the heart of it, snap bone and cartilage
come to my, come to my city starve with us
God made dirt and dirt is a part of us
replace chewed up wires and spark plugs to spark it up
hit the toll plaza like a runway for cars and trucks
I used to count the water towers, dad drove
now i’m countin’ on out of towner’s to travel in droves
I mean, the skyline reminds me where I’m from
and how far I’ve come, I’ve just begun
you wanna be down? tarred and goosefeathered
then put yourself in a position to getcha’ a new profession
from post traumatic stress to pre-pubescent
Post to the Times read who perished
come on pay us a visit put it on your credit card
indebted to large corporations, slide your debit or
chorus*
whether you a harbinger tryin’ to exploit us
your kneelin’ on your hands and knees prayin’ to nothin’ more than a toilet
join us, sit have a drink let me spoil it
I will destroy and own where the oil is
avoid us, choose who roll with, voices
disappointment, election time, choices
we will protect the dream if it means puttin’ a team up
fortitude at its best for my people and our freedom
I mean, the landscape reminds me where I’m from
and all those wars won, who I’ve become
and its fun spreadin’ my name through a missile launcher spray nozzle
jet planes flyin’ under radar’s for paintbombin’
only the crimson velvet hue makes progress
green is what they say the world goes ’round with
we’re in the middle of a crucial conflict
you wanna make it, I want your tax dollars
and you can have it all
and you can have a ball
you’ll need nothing more
so you can laugh it off
and you can have it all
more drugs and alcohol
but you can’t set fire to a dirt empire
and you can have it all
and you can have a ball
you’ll need nothing more
so you can laugh it off
and you can have it all
more drugs and alcohol
but nothing is dirt cheap in the land of opportunity
chorus*
comin’ with cake in the clutch
but wanna take from us
they’ll never take it from us
ultra super mega deluxe
feedin’ me sex and these drugs
suckin’ my neck for the rush
like its just never enough
ultra super mega deluxe
they say more bang for your buck
then drag my name in the mud
they drag my name in the mud
ultra super mega deluxe
nobody checkin’ for us
we cruise like beggers for crumbs
so we will never give up
you so outta tune and outta touch
get taken out in a rush
when policin my fam style wit them tight ass cuffs
reroute ya life like drugs
and that’s my honest danny johnston
come kick it with the devil who digs in my ear on the constant
now who got conscience?
all of a sudden they calm quick
roll like the physical form of your complex
gold spittin for dollars leave my followers paid
no how, no way, we lose now its all day
aha you can’t get near’em
glide on train tracks a flash in the subway system
swoop down with a birds eye view of my new harem
it’s a gorgeous seminal fortress, they wanna kill’em
scrutinized by suit and ties
suicide brothers hookup
and fly like Superfly Jimmy Snuka
savvy? picture the podracer from the mach makers
and YB in the cockpit with stock lazers
with dropkicks from the toprope
USMD’s the bomb shit like blonde prom chicks without clothes
I’m so Don the snotnose is sown on by now
and got jokes to float on so pop those
robots get crashed off mangled from rock throws on asphalt
smashed all bangles and stockshows with passports
yeah you can get some cash from it
right out his plexiglass stomach go’head you asked for it
it’s the
chorus*
with an iron fist, I put the smackdown
in a smog ridden city, gasoline haze in the background
dirty air filter, pilled up off kilter
with my mind on my money and my money on the future deluxe
we risk it all and be the first to fall
rats dive in
just lift the floor if you wanna talk
back, dial in
but the smile ends here
I see u flossin a wreck
you all causes and special effects with claws in my text
devisin’ credit rings supplyin’ every link
and we fittin’ pickles inside of wedding rings
a steady stream got us pissin’ nickels in puddles
buttercup clicks get huddled up quick
trouble, cut up lips from rebuttals they comin’ up with
wadds in a pail and a trail of junk mail
anticipation is killer ’til the sound is unveiled
jump in a rabbit suit, downer avenue
ground beef, make cheeseburgers out of cannibals
and stay opaque with Tamer Sose the spazmatic
my name aint OJ but ok I’ll take a stab at it
trashed addicts is ass backwards with bad habits
that means them fiends deplete my whole stash then go smash grabbin;
they label us names like “majorly stranger” “basket case” who’s cold in
the vein a magnet for danger
bottomfish scavenger, passengers on this crazy train
rappin’ for change, aim after we calibrate the gauge for the
chorus*
dark circles under her eyes she’s so tired.
thinkin’ God forgot to put her wires together like MacGyver
but her smile shines well of a thousand watts and higher
desire to go out without assistance
they’re afraid an episode is inevitable
seven months old the first storm
mother and father in tears over the crib watchin’ their first born
as her retinas flutter, body shivers
gift or a curse, its what the good doctor delivered
efforts to cope they holder at 9 years old
nine years strong they hold her down when she convulse
check her pulse its beats her down whole heartedly
was tranquil and quiet prior to her starting to seize
what dis-ease, tryin’ to communicate through a channel
she blew a fuse and lost the signal when it was scrambled
she’s a lot like us in a billion ways
every day seems the same
round and round, ’round the way
and when I think about it, I wanna turn my face
when the beast sinks its teeth in we run
she hates what she she’s in the mirror, nervous
can’t understand why she can’t cheer up its not workin’
and I could get a little slimmer
is what she thinks in front of her body framed just left of the school pictures
more junk food down the chute chuck it in the garbage
sloppily treating her body like dumpster then she vomits
violently doubled over then wash up the bile
and be ghost quicker then anybody would ever notice
ten pounds less and still goin’
chipper in front of her friends the binge is well kept
her face is sunk in there’s not much else left
of her self esteem one too many failed attempts
with vanity bad as her teeth she knows she can’t keep this up
she’s turning into what she eats
depressed and thinks she’s fat no matter what
across from shrink hysterically cryin’ sayin’ I had enough
but when I think about it, it makes me turn my face
when the beast sinks his teeth in we run
we are a lot like her in a billion ways
born an age ago and lived a billion days
we still take one step forward and two steps back
there ain’t no pill that I know gonna bring her back
so scandalous a vampire on beat
in the heat of the night she’s admired
from a distance through a slab of glass
in the eyes of man who pays cash for ass
he pulls up alongside and asks how much
and she replies twenty for a blow fifty for a
only eighteen still a child she climbs in hikes it up
he slides in and then busts
chorus 1*
to the core in the city of Gotham, he’s watchin’
ricochet off the walls like a metal ball in a grid
futuristic or humanistic its all for the kids
hot steppin’ my achilles with flame wings
blazin’ a trail baby you do the same thing
clap ya’ hands stomp ya feet no frontin’
now lets dance and put the funk in function
maniac I aint dyin’ in a crash like Brainiac
on a path to destruction, maybe these are the last days of Yak
I’m just another victim of the system
maybe ’cause I have no direction acceptance can’t save me
just another victim of the system maybe
’cause I’m runnin’ with Leftists, I’m skeptic lately
gnarly but we just want to party like its 1999
and I think its time, for the worlds to collide with the land’s support
I need girl who believes in what I’m standin’ for
deleted some fickle friends so its time for upgrades
holdin’ my stomach in pain while I ride the subway
singin’ momma momma I’m so sick
that’s why I tour the country and avoid the kitsch
asking doctor doctor will I die?
I know this life is not promised but still I try
ya’gotta, clap your hands if you want to
clap your hands if you want to
clap your hands if you want to
clap your hands if you want to
I will not love you
I cannot touch you
I really want to
you bring me up then you break me down
down for the cause if the cause is poppin’
on some WM shit and jaws are droppin’
told pop I’m quittin’ my job I’m sick of bein’ a slave
now the remedy is decay not me in a phase
played the show it was stellar last night
swear to God I must’ve been a cow in my past life
clap ya’ hands stomp ya feet no frontin
now lets dance and put the funk in function
neophytes don’t even sweat it everything’s gonna be alright
you got the fever the skeleton key to life
but you’re just another victim of the system
maybe you lost your mind when you loaned your brain to the TV
just another victim of the system
maybe I used love to blind you call me crazy
gnarly but we just want to party like its 1999
and I think its time, for the worlds to collide with the lands support
I need girl who believes in what I’m standin’ for
deleted some fickle friends so its time for upgrades
holdin’ my stomach in pain while I ride the subway
singin’ momma momma I’m so sick
that’s why I tour the country and avoid the kitsch
askin’ doctor doctor will I die?
I know this life is not promised but still I try
chorus*
you make me sicker than that time I got food poisoning
and couldn’t stop puking my brains out
why why why are you so hazardous to my health?
what did I do to deserve this?
I swear to God I’m going to do something really really bad if I can’t fix this
who are you? who do you think you are?
ask and you shall receive
your wish is my command take my hand and see girl
I love you so much I’ll put my jacket over the mud
so walk over it like a bridge of love
and then throw you off of it when no one’s looking
lets take a long walk on the beach barefoot and enjoy the sun
maybe kiss with our toes in the ocean
I’ll feed you strawberries dip’em in hot chocolate
your voice is so soothing please don’t stop talking
yeah right after I put this ductape over your trap
I wanna rub you down with lotion and ether rag you
I said pumpkin I just might have to
get a job so I can shower you with rose petals
candle light dinners that’s right a real winner
that’s not what your friends think
we got nothin’ in common
I mean so much in common I can’t believe you like ice cream that’s so random
what a tandem I wanna bury you I wanna marry you
six feet deep I’ll take care of you
you don’t know what I’m capable of
take all your lies with rat poison and swallow them
chase it with hydrofluoric acid
I won’t stand here and let you walk all over me like a cigarette butt
like I’m some kind of idiot lying on the ground while you kick me
adding insult to injury
bickering to no end for no particular reason at all
I’m over it, I’m so over it
I feel like I don’t even know you anymore
Hey love, you look so pretty this morning
Let me make you eggs breakfast in bed
yup that’s what I said then pop pop these self prescribed meds
some more OJ, coffee you need anything call me
and I’ll be gone before you can count to ten
peaceful when sleep beauty you emanate
wake the beast and get shredded to pieces by like she’s leatherface
oh baby I was just tellin Camu about how good the movie was
you picked out yesterday
yo dog that might of been the worst movie I ever saw in my life
the most thoughtful and generous
you give me hell every chance you get
my lady I’m your gentleman
and I would do pretty much anything to please you
and teach you like my pupil so why wouldn’t I keep you
with all this time invested come on you think I’m stupid?
I’ll open doors and windows of opportunity
just brewin’ whatever you feed consuming me
and I’ll be sucked in so deep it might ruin me
so foolishly on a leash a lunatic crazy just about you and me
you got that off though I can’t even front
ask and you shall receive your wish is my command take my hand and see girl
I’ll walk the desert, swim across seven sees
but won’t leave the second you want beef
gone is the ideal
that idea that I hold dear
lost my sleep well you’re a deep well
that I dive in at all costs
floss your pretty little poisons
when the noise ends you’re turned off
and I’m left posin’ on this cross
but I still pump blood
’cause that’s your drug and I give u what u need
but what’s love for u? so rotten
and for me I bottom feed
and if I’m stuck with my eyes fixed on an open door to leave
’cause in this hole we dug there just aint room enough for me
we were so underrated
our faces brighter we’re young fighters
we made statements, the truth inside us young liars
up nights awake then retired
in the early morn when sun made the moon expire
we ice skated on lakes of fire and spit glaciers
so misunderstood they were mistaken
sayin’ we were losers and the wrong crowd
they can’t help it, but can’t stand to look at us now
and this is all I have thinkin’ what a drag
when I was eighteen in the elevator shaft
and still it may seem like I’m livin’ in the past
but the way it is to me that time went by in a flash
now on a do or die mission like roadkill
in a collapse, hold still, he brought it back
we shined so bright
and not a soul could stop us from doing what we liked
we did whatever we wanted every night
and they said we’d never make it but we just laughed in their faces
but we just
when the clouds cried we were the tears from the sky
sorry we can’t stay the sun will take us away to dry
little boys frustrated and annoyed
didn’t need the protection of responsibility to fill a void
we found joy in destroying the definition they gave us
our skepticism of the red tape must have saved us
so in my melancholy and my grimmest days
I think of the way were, its a familiar face
until it fades and stays dark like the graveyard shift
I write this song to keep my fave stars lit
but its evident never again will it be the same
I’m on my hands and knees tryin’ to save it from slippin’ down the drain
now on a suicide mission like roadkill
in a collapse, hold still, he brought it back
whether we were on the fringes of destruction
or innocent victims of corruption
we had it all even when we had nothin’
we were on the outside looking in
we were animated we were lucid
totally fascinated with our music
and we laughed in the faces of the rules when
they tried to cover us up with their lids, because
chorus* 2x
had the need to package what at 15 I saw unravelin’
my path in these chutes and ladders
among the well established
I entertained the thought and fathomed it could ever happen
devised the plan and swore in secrecy to cherish it
they sell it like medicine insurance is not a benefit
see if you’re generous, they’ll take your brain away
and use the same ideas for they own vein display
so cultivate hatred soldier you got it? yes sir
motivate patrons with stereophonics, yes sir
good, now switch the steez every piece makes a mark
like in the city digital circuits from analog parts
initiatin’ generation gaps
in the fast lane no breakpads tryin’ to eject my sorry ass
and kingfish wanna take take take but never bring it
got a fat pig apple in its mouth she’s ready to start singin’
I’m fluctuatin’ like the situation
losin’ it in weight when I fuel it
when they waitin’ impatient, for the new communication
is there anybody listening? over and out
hello can anybody hear me? over and out
witness the new communication, over and out
I think we’re gonna be ok man, Roger?
ninety percent business ten percent music
pretty vacant still takin names and no prisoners immune to it
never settle eat your heart out
where precious metal is reveled forever what about the shards of our town?
loveable rogues and flare wearers
shake up the state of flux
heartbreakers shake it up shake shake shake it up
the audible vaudeville celebrate at the carnival
get in line step right up, a winner every time
gotcha beginners better luck next time playin’
listen you made your bed now lay in it we change the face of it
guerilla campaignin’ I hope we aint workin’ for Satanists
chorus*
she’s peein out a cowards kid, limpin layin powerless
they poked him full of malices, eyes opened like Alex’s
a chromag version absurd to observe curbin’
a Serb and a slurred German fucked and he met a Persian
your destiny’s worms get a coat lifes a cold whore
post war find out why I sold my soul for
a teen hangin’ from the devil’s strings and ready
since the death of Iron Maiden been in a bag of Crazy Eddie
ten years promised to reign then it’s satans cellar
just started pour Shia handed me an umbrella
while the clock in stone ticks
I smell the fumes in my future and jones for a fix
60 CC’s of WM
stuck in a beast neck injected up to the end
or how official your skin when your back’s in it?
maybe its the attraction to a tortured soul
that leaves most of your lovers in the cold, but never me
disintigratin’ inhibitions you’re itchin’ to leap
and indulge in it but what if I’m not ready?
or ever will be, guilty as charged
filthy it’s hard it’s like your hearts in a jar and bein’ tested
its been infected how romantic imagine
your neckline formin’ a V behind the fabric, beauty is classic
gassed up faster filling and no spilling
straight to the top and shatter the glass the ceiling
and lately I’ve been debating whether this love is fake
and conceivin’ the thought to let it share each one of our faces
I see that picture I don’t know if I could paint it
you know I can’t, you aint the type that I would ever stay with
so don’t mistake me for bein’ caught in the talons
the dollface is nothin’ but gift from your parents
in the latest fashion draped in passion
dressed to kill, the queen of the castle God damn it
I got your heart
I know you don’t
you want the pieces but my machine is a chance, I can’t
see I’ve endured
and I’ll live on
the morning is the dawning of us being born, I’m gone
I love your style
It’s so unique
you think I’m pleasing you because I want you weak, it’s cheap
but I’ve endured
and I’ll live on
I will exist inspite of you thinkin’ its wrong, I’m gone
I see the devil in the details horns of jealousy
protruding out of your dark brown hair, my mortal enemy
if trust is a timebomb, then you be the bombsquad
if you can diffuse me, I will let down my guard
now I won’t open that door if there’s a nightmare hidin’ behind it
breakdown, crash, just don’t fuck up my alignment
and so forth, how can you be so sure
you finally found what you were searchin’ for after lookin’ for so long?
you want me to play Odysseus to your Sirens
the guinea pig to your science then sever ties with me
maybe I’m going overboard now I’m sinkin’
with my feet chained under the spell you cast fringing
totally dreamin’ awake so far beyond this sin city
that separates the living from lovers givin’ it up quickly
and the shoe doesn’t fit me in case your wonderin’
I’m just a flash ten seconds after your thunderin’
trust is a timebomb
love is a lifeline
hate is a strong word
when is the right time?
time is just fools gold
the sex is like old news
the silence is so loud
just what have we come to?
