Put A Lid On It
03:02
|
|||
be a part of history!
this might be the last chance
you'll ever see
something like this
be a part of history!
be a part of history!
be a part of history!
and go into a jar
and you're gonna
have the lid screwed on
and you're gonna learn to like it
the truth is i cannot find
the proper lid
i wish i could seal it
i would conceal it
never want to reveal it
keep it rolling
as long as
the show can go on
it's been a very nice run
through the generations
trying to keep my dynasty on top
it's not as easy it looks when you're looking
up
at what we've got
we've been here since
before you were born
and we're gonna go
after you stop
so chin up!
big smiles
happy times
friendly faces
in all the places
you turn in your
nightmare delirium
(and of course slide to unlock)

|

oh sweet sexy vampire lady
i see the hallucination already
standing across the room from me
next to the fire extinguisher
you know if you were a plastic fork
and i were some kinda curly plastic
i think we might really
start to get along
and then if you had fallen
off the wagon
well, off the wagon
is where i was born
do you think
i was here
to be moved around
by a plastic fork?
you must have mistaken me
for someone in your mind
never born!
[scratching]
hey, how you doin'?
i'm feelin' alright myself
been here too long
i know how it goes
the party never ends
party never ends
party never ends

years decades centuries millennia

The Phattizt Beat
02:33
|
|||
by now you may have already have been noticing a certain theme which is the fact of the medium recording me and my ego plus the role i play in the gigantic ritual of sharing the higher truth together that we all know somewhere inside of us but then every so often someone comes along and tries to put it in words and if the words are not enough then they...
drop a phat beat on it
the fattest beat ain't fat enough
it's skinnier than an anorexic
oh oh baby... [scatting]
uh, harlem line back in 1982
brother, shit man, if you didn't
know someone or other...

Dream Gymnasium
02:54
|
|||
also by now you might have been noticing
that the water is spilling across the table
and soaking all the paper that is lying
with its words undying forever trying
to make us feel the way
that we should have...
...been from before
as i watch the norwegian fjords
growing ever more long
i gotta say
hey hey hey hey hey hey
hey hey hey hey
hey hey hey hey
have you ever mistaken
a water pitcher for your
dearly departed uncle?
well i'm not saying that i have
but i might've
i don't want you to get the wrong idea
don't get too superstitious
you know it brings bad luck
i've always wanted to be here
and now that i am
i don't wanna get gone
but who are you and who am i
and how do we know that this is
nothing more than a dream gymnasium?
(slide to unlock,
phone is wet,
does not stop
recording my hand)

So Drunk Wonderin'
03:11
|

i'm so drunk i'm wonderin'
if it even matters
i'm so drunk i'm wonderin'
if it even matters
i'm so drunk i'm wonderin'
if it even matters
so drunk i'm wonderin'
if it even matters
[whoosh]
i'm so drunk i'm wonderin'
if it even matters
you know the government
can cause earthquakes
across the world
maybe even on other planets
nikola tesla technology
but it's alright
we're not gonna think
about that too hard
because we're so drunk
it doesn't matter
anyway, they got these, uh, energy waves
that are moving through the atmosphere
they get into certain compounds
such as fluoride and chlorine
you know, the stuff
that's in the drinking water
i'm so drunk i don't care
nothing matters
also they're killing whales
and dolphins and the oceans
are pretty much dead, depleted,
fished out and defecated upon
i'm so drunk i don't care
it doesn't matter
there's a plan you see
for the super elite
they're never gonna age
and live until eternity
and when this planet is used up
they'll plant a seed on mars
or maybe even jupiter
i'm so drunk i don't care
it doesn't matter

we're obviously into the album extras
because you're alone as you're listening to this
and i'm alone as i'm recording this
except your aloneness now is at least more real
and present than where i am--
i'm gone, as soon as i said this, it's done,
but when you're hearing this, you're here
i wish that i could return the favor

Bone Us Track

furthermore, this is great,
now that i've learned that
i can cut the recordings short
you know, frankenstein's monster
and count dracula,
werewolf of london
and jack the ripper
good!
that gives us something in common then
jeckyl and hyde, portrait of dorian gray
victorian age was kind of creepy in a way

Misery of Joy
00:43
|
|||
this is my apology to the world:
i'm sorry i called you sucker ass
you're alright and you're probably better than me
and the reason i'm talking right now into a piece of technology
is because i'm so very lonely! there's no one here to share
this misery of what it means to be me, you just don't know.
oh, but wait, you're you and maybe you feel better than i do
well...
