Respect The measure of a self-made man Paragon, pissed-off king parasite Night shifts, how the subjects do get restless And check The armor on the ice-cream van Chiming it's a small world after all' But it's still too big to go defenseless It's story-time in the street of spies Let's tuck you in again sh**-talking at midnight Ballistics in the searchlight sky Wonder bread for generations Who wouldn't pay for stronger medication' It's story-time in the street of spies Let's tuck you in again Surface and dive, survive, survive And get s**ed in again To the shadowed shell On the carousel Surveyor for new maps of hell Get selective sight & everythings all right You can't fall off the floor, right' But you can perfect The special kind of self-respect We've come to expect Brick-bats in the rain The cops are on the way The hours grind away like any other day It's story-time in the street of spies Let's tuck you in again Surface and dive, survive, survive And get s**ed in again To the shadowed shell On the carousel Surveyor for new maps of hell I got selective sight But nothing is all right We're falling off the floor tonight
