| I hear «oohs!» |
| and «ahhs!», when I jump off my garage
|
| People treat me like I’m dying for a cause cause I believe in God
|
| Santa Clause, and The Easter Bunny
|
| I’m hanging out with Lady Luck, and feeding her when her beaver’s hungry
|
| Don’t need your money, don’t need your company
|
| Do need that filthy middle finger out my cup of tea
|
| Like, if it takes one to bleed
|
| And two to make the bleeding stop;
|
| I’d rather leave a trail of blood
|
| Now it’s two-thousand-and-
|
| And I’m still kicking like old habits
|
| Still sticking with no address or mattress
|
| Now, half this life spent in these skate shoes
|
| Been spent walking to the beat of a breakthrough
|
| I shake a few hands, hug a few strangers
|
| Make a new fan, cut a rug and dupe later
|
| New raider of the lost breaks and bass lines
|
| Trying to discover some peace on the freight lines
|
| Nine hollows and I’m feeling like a fifty-spot
|
| Channeling my lady luck, see what that gypsy’s got
|
| She’s looking up today, smiling at the thunderstorm
|
| Playing her tiny violin that keep my hunger warm
|
| While a hundred horns blow for the wrong reasons
|
| I write my songs singing, «So long!» |
| to all the heathens
|
| Like, «Greetings to you, good riddance.»
|
| It’s time for your bad come-back
|
| So come back to the:
|
| I came to pigeon-hole the skeptics
|
| While I address my Minnesota ethics
|
| Could give a goddamned fuck if the children don’t respect it
|
| My name is Cecil fucking Otter not Dylan Goes Electric
|
| So who’s that peeking in my window? |
| Right now!
|
| I don’t know, but I can see the interest in their eyebrow
|
| I vow to the dying day of my inner works:
|
| My medium is extra-large, until I’m in the dirt
|
| My fingers hurt from all these over-anxious brushstrokes
|
| Sometimes I’m not looking, I’ll wind up, and cut throats
|
| Just jokes man, I’ll set 'em all aside soon
|
| For now they’re my baby: the centerfold
|
| So from that, circus cannon that you shot me through
|
| To smoking poison in the boy’s room with a Mötley Crüe
|
| Talk me through this
|
| With the coffee, or the newest fixative
|
| And you’ll just say the music’s a risk to his health
|
| But he sticks to his guns, 'til they stick to you
|
| Keeps twisting his tongue, and it’ll spit to you
|
| Sings you to sleep with a song of repercussions
|
| But he don’t sleep, cause sleep is the Reaper’s cousin
|
| And he’s a holy ghost hunter, Steve Perry street talker
|
| Eating some moldy toast under my Beef Whopper
|
| Small city beat-jocker addicted to the hocking spit
|
| Off-beat beatboxer who thinks he’s rocking it
|
| Hip-hop-kin's kid with a mouth full of dynamite
|
| Checking myself for ticks, and Jimmy Caster troglodytes
|
| I hide the fight and show my best impression of…
|
| I came to pigeon-hole the skeptics
|
| While I address my Minnesota ethics
|
| Could give a goddamned fuck if the children don’t respect it
|
| My name is Cecil fucking Otter not Dylan Goes Electric |
