Lyrics

It's them
With their baby feet, hummingbirds and milky ways
It's them
Horde your sea shells and blow out the big wick
It's them, it's them, it's them
No not your vitamins, or pillow or monocle
This one's just righteousness, half full and logical
Mean well remote absolute and nowhere to go
But onward and upward
Clasp crowns ground the heart
Let transmission commence, hello, goodbye dark
Really I wonder, is this all material?
Really I wonder, is this all material?
Really I wonder, is this all material?
Really I wonder, is this all material?
Really I wonder, is this all material?
This can't be heaven, the light is so dull
The first time I spoke must have been wonderful
It doesn't look like an ice sculpture... (it really doesn't from here) ...or does it?
If I really paid attention, time would move faster and faster
Landscapes and states of nature would gallop and sink before me
'til all was still as an orchid, one instant
One rich white bursting orchid
Stood in channels and the rivers deep below beauty
Grimace, flee
Souls don't need shelter
Grimace, flee
Souls don't need shelter
Grimace, flee
Souls don't need shelter
Native well knowledge radiating through shone
What's scared smell sight
A swimming prism's gray core
Which one will erect a definition
For sheer bliss and set its semblance sincere and object with pride down gently
Before a globe of judge and grudge in open forum
I think...
No one, hundreds of thousands of chattering silver-faced monkeys screech
And find them fascinating
Although nowhere to be found on the periphery of
Some generation, huh?
I'm not familiar with the term
Boiled to a crack, happy now...
Who'll be bird in hand
I've been mutilated trying
Teaching myself preference, technique and acceptability
It seems your son is of consumed
Boiled to a crack
What do you mean there's no oar?
All the rations?
Sound the alarm, there must be a stowaway
What do you mean there's no oar?
All the rations?
Sound the alarm, there must be a stowaway
A drip, bore, a crack and a trickle
Soon the hull gathered its body
And they all drown to meet with a grin, stick and handkerchief
Amid the flowering dust of the crossroads
Don't peter out on me now (don't you do it)
Thrust your fist into the sunset
Texture within the footprints and an end atop the wind
I feel... leaflike, something something to crawl on
Sunlit, small, a wren beneath the soil presence beyond walls
Art is everywhere, I refuse to know where
I wonder to know where art is
Everywhere I wander to know where art is Everywhere I wander
Next time I'm bored, the man's going down (he's going down)
I'll stomp on anyone's brown bag and lunch when they're not looking (turn around)
It's not actually bad rap, I just don't feel it
Pshh, there, I said it
Next time I'm bored, the man's going down (he's going down)
I'll stomp on anyone's brown bag and lunch when they're not looking (turn around)
It's not actually bad rap, I just don't feel it
Phew, there, I said it
It's them
With their tree stumps, cat litter and clay masks
It's them
Finish your last thought and man the battle packs
It's them, it's them, it's them
Oh, don't say (help)
She's crying in her salve of scary monsters don't exist
And blood and guts and little broken bits of love
Just don't say it
All gather as the greatness in her glory days and softened lovely rays
Can't hold back and pour, please don't
She wails for (help)
Orants in pain, pity the stick figures are bold proud faint
Fainter, trapped on paper
Drawn to where babies come from, we think
Can't figure out the gist of setting a precedent since shucks
The sacrosanct and such
Has ran and hid inhibited shocked and implanted
In limited, prohibited, it's (it's them)
Them
It's all a game, the fair and right has petered out
Production was always paramount
And what have we done to deserve this
(Why, evolve, of course)
Fruit pickers learned to herd
And now the butcher's got mechanical pencils
Just leave the children
Stab, process, preserve, pack
Anything but the children
Tear, portion, chop, shelf
They spared no one
We're giving selves to records for the tots and toddlers
Not to gorge our fantasies and super-human fetishes
If you give the strangers baby toys
The entertainment and enjoyment they receive
Will read and write and return itself tenfold
To watch your kids and clothe your loved ones
In a crystal ball of faith
Renewed and fertile bed
Help! Someone page the god
Help! Is there a poet in the house?
Help! I'm afraid we'll have to innovate
Help! I can't bring her back to life alone
And there, between the timid yellow voice of my candle
And the space in my little notebook she left this form
And I saw her dust in the light's angles and heard:
"You there, young man
My metamorphosis, your efforts
That's all natural; just learn from virtues
Keep them, perpetuate your fortune
In both worlds, give and give and give
There's nothing wrong with gardens
And in everyone's preserve, truth is truth
Both perfect and realistic
You know when energy is flowing
Smile, teach yourself to write, and let them buy the album
Thanks for the help"
