True crime, fantasy, action-adventure
Game show it's all sci-fi, I'm all Play-Doh
I like data that turn brains to egg yolk
It turn royals to regular John or Jane Does
I hate praising net worth over legwork
I hate ceding all power to the extroverts
I find the current social
Architecture hell on earth
We make shepherds and shadow
'em to the netherworld
I move reticent, never really an open book
I'm gone fishin' at thе
Risk of being overlooked
I know you lovе it when
The novas open cobra hoods
A little show to get the
Focus off the cloven foot
Behind the curtain the Merlin
Is all jellyfish
I get to beckon the wrecking
Ball to your Lego brick
I wish you nothing but the
Gentle kiss of yellow piss
I give you nothing but the
Number for my exorcist

I was on the floor in a fugue state
Tripping over old flicks
Picking out a new name
I was on the couch feeling real gone
Learning how to walk from leaving the TV on
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step

Romance, comedy, documentary, newscast
It's all cartoons, I'm all smooth jazz
I seen a few that plotted
Futures over chewed fat
Abandon crew to collude with
The common sewer rat
We value wrath above any accurate narrative
We let our most irascible
Design the characters
They only dressing they vendettas
Up as parables
Promoting privacy and cowardice as parallels
I got rid of the whip and
Told myself to boogie more
Invoke eternal disobedience in human form
Secure the city short an
Infantry and wooden horse
You missed the morning you were born
To play the bugle for
I like glassy lake water and old maps
Tall tales with black sails and skull flags
Cold lemonade and OG Golden Axe
I don't like to talk about the UFO Crash

I was on the floor in a fugue state
Tripping over old flicks
Picking out a new name
I was on the couch feeling real gone
Learning how to walk from leaving the TV on
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step

Late night, thriller, reality, drama, western
It's all politics, I'm all dead nerves
My margin riddled with bubble letters
And French girls my special powers are
Animus and revenge-thirst
Corrosive energy hemorrhaging from
The heavyweights
You like adherents who would swear
They saw you levitate
That dedication never question if
The record straight
It help you keep the accountability MIA
We see the quivering kitten
Beneath the goat mask
Intimidation means influence over
Drone attack
This ain't exactly some sophisticated
Code to crack some people like to see
A decent morning overcast
Sometimes a beam of light comes
Screaming from my upper trunk
I walk around in public looking
Like a hundred suns
My covey turn that something
Wicked into nothing much
I give a f*ck if all the
Money's in the blood and guts

I was on the floor in a fugue state
Tripping over old flicks
Picking out a new name
I was on the couch feeling real gone
Learning how to walk from leaving the TV on
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step
You could bear witness to
The second first step
