I am the nicotene stain that you just can't remove
And like a skeleton in the closet...
I will always haunt you
Like squintz after the picture
I envision a life with my dream girl, naked, in the rain
Blazed in a field of poppies
Poverty is not an option...
I often in fact wonder at times, will there ever be more meaning to this
And wish happy little neverhaveieverland fairytales
Spliced with ultraviolent s**capades over lost episodes of batman
Trapped in the web, hacked in head, gene hackman instead
Wrapped in wireframe patterns that walk little nemo from the bed
As you sleepwalk into the spiders den you'll realize
That you don't belong here, like an open mic at a fraternity
Sidestep once to the right, now
Stop, penny down, better speak before thinking
Blinking light visions will signify a change
Not unlike anything nightly chameleon A-type by bowie
Slowly i keep drifting abstract
To the point of where the words themselves lost the meaning
And as i keep leaning on these memorex clips
I see for myself that life really needs a soundtrack
But i found that time after time i
Have as much touch with reallity as a former child actor
...after that, there wasn't much we could do for him...
...as matter o fact, we here at the agency had just left him for dead...
This is a night of the living b-boy
And i am the architect of this nightmare, alpha
Its my direction
Call me cecil b gutterf**, with a demented outcome of the conclusion
And one hand gripped firmly around the microphone amidst the confusion
This is my story no bronx tale no hollywood facade
Cuz the centerpoint of my life has always been mutiny
Still the scrutiny
Of the day to day coffee to dutch to nicotene routine ratrace
Is whats really kept me going all this time
Im fine really....
Its not like i didn't think about the illusions
These jeckyll and hyde distress signals reflect sybill solutions
Its not like i didn't think about the gravity
So i walk by myself in the rain... headphones dripping
And i'm thinking...this is my reality
This is just the way that the modern world works
In time....youll learn to get over it
Ten pennies picked from the fountain overnight
Now i'm lost in the dawn no change in my pocket
This is just the way my own mind works
If i thought that you'd love me, id learn to get over it
Ten pennies picked from the fountain overnight
Now im lost in dawn and all thats left is the memory
Im settling in for the long night ahead of me
Im settling in for the long night ahead of me
I've got...
Three blunts and some ritalin
Riddles spit backwards to the gollem watchem head twitch fingers fidgeting
And I'm nervous like mcgirk with handful of poisoned berries
Starring deep into the eyes of his own mindf**...shut up...
Stuck in the vinyl swamp lost the apparatus
Magic fingers on the panic bu*ton you lost me in the madness
Theres no exit here, this is your own grave so lie in it
But as for me....id rather bomb your whole system
You see, atomically, i manufactured this mentality
By waitin for the mushroom to drop
Little man and fat boy strapped to the tongue ugly and
Under the guise of a childhood speech impediment
Lost there radioactive properties
There, thats right, f** it, i said it
Exposin the underside of an industry
He dreams at night of rupert murdochs execution being live and public
The drunk swaggers in with his on demand apathy
Like fry on the couch, i'll bump this sh** like they do in the future
Its not like i didn't think about the consequence
But never undersestimate the cerebral of those who have nothing
Its not like i didn't think about the reaction
That you had in your face while you were sippin a cup of coffee
And im thinking... is this my reality
This is just the way that the modern world works
In time....youll learn to get over it
Ten pennies picked from the fountain overnight
Now i'm lost in the dawn no change in my pocket
This is just the way my own mind works
If i thought that you'd love me, id learn to get over it
Ten pennies picked from the fountain overnight
Now im lost in dawn and all thats left is the memory
Now all thats left is the long day ahead of me
(so i keep feet to the sky)
Now all thats left is the long day ahead of me
(so i keep head to the clouds)
