lyrics

(quietly)

major forceful style lava macho when i gotcha rhino horn light saber after hours wafting through the wanna disco ball and criminal behavior . . .

VERSE 1

The type to read a Lorca poem then play Gears of War
Or listen to Paul Barman while contemplating dinosaurs
Diplosaurus, one of five open Wikipedia tabs
But right now I'm tweeting about intercourse and beast fat
Diseased raps, I think I'm loonier than Raoul Duke
This is a failure to communicate, Cool Hand Luke
But say anything! Celebrate chaotic thought sparks!
Dadaism, human trafficking, Joaquin Phoenix, Walmart
INSTALL ART in illegal or unlikely places
Baffle, disrupt, encourage spike lee phases
We could all stop what we're doing and make out
Abandon the city, buy pianos, create sounds
Confession: I lack a soft spot for concrete and steel
Claustrophobic in these crowds, At times forget how to feel
Only because art nurtures what is human
Am I not a barcoded cyborg in a bad sci-fi movie
Only because art nurtures what is human
Am I not a barcoded cyborg in a bad sci-fi movie (they're coming for us!)

Be a weirdo, disrupt the culture's bullshit
Or leave altogether, you know, like Thoreau did
Every little thing is gonna be hunky-dory
Abide like the dude, find your own satori

Be a weirdo, disrupt the culture's bullshit
Or leave altogether, you know, like Thoreau did
Every little thing is gonna be hunky-dory
Abide like The Dude, find your own satori

Conduct avant-grade experiments to discern a sweeter boysenberry
Might release a songbird-themed album entitled "Moist Canaries"
Or get on my Henry David and move where the trees reign
Eat a garden of funky mushrooms and discover what free means
Call me a hippie weirdo but you should know I'm beyond labels
And in touch with old magic like the dudes in those Elrond fables
I think I'm Lord Byron and Lauryn Hill's love child
Reviving the archaic---i fuck with peace pipes and sun dials
But I'm also Dostoyevsky, minus the Christianity
With a dash of Tyler the Creator's outrageous-yet-candid speech
Dismantle my mandible but you won't quell my kilowatts
I tend to rain from the sky and appear dead when I'm really not
In a chilly hostile universe I evolved to reach sentience
And built Machu Picchu, don't even mention it
The greatest thing since Arnold's grandpa said "Never eat raspberries!"
Dastardly, I'm Karl Jaspers meets ManBearPig
But enough about me, let's talk about existence folks
Wait, I think I was doing that. Did you listen close?
But enough about me, let's talk about existence folks
Wait, I think I was doing that. Did you listen close?

Be a weirdo, disrupt the culture's bullshit
Or leave altogether, you know, like Thoreau did
Every little thing is gonna be hunky-dory
Abide like The Dude, find your own satori

Be a weirdo, disrupt the culture's bullshit
Or leave altogether, you know, like Thoreau did
Every little thing is gonna be hunky-dory
Abide like The Dude, find your own satori
