lyrics

In our compaction, let us not be subtle
In the drawing of our conjoined realizations
We all raise a dull knife
That my fleeting memory will use
To cut away the stained, rusted damages
With a blade that cuts like my noisiest supplications
Of collective, irrefutable, non-negotiable ideologies

They blast away like black rabbits running rabid
Through the trees
The faint effervescence of my calamitous brain
Chases its own tail and bites the dirty, rotten legs
Off of its own dark lineage

Thus, the whole, stinking,
Pivotal revelation of revolution
Rests stoically, waiting for a vague discourse
To a man, woman or beast that shall explain
All or nothing in a half-breathed, full-whispered
Harmonic convergence of all our smoothest capacities

It's still a vague discourse, downtrodden and
Stomped out
Until words have lost all their previous,
Ever weakening definitions of this and that
Droning on and on in constant reprise of
What was just a moment ago reprized
What rapturous, shrinking, more and more shrinking
All the time, in its vague discourse,
Downtrodden and stomped out, purely unintentional,
Mostly non-deliberate noises
Do you have for me today?

Cos mama, I tell you that I dream of a day
When bicycles rule the freeways
Power, soul, intellect, channeled by brain waves
Human propelled, shifting, changing
High speed bi-ways
"Computer, self-destruct, Kirk-One-Alpha-Deltron"

Cos mama, I tell you that I dream of a day
When bicycles rule the freeways
Power, soul, intellect, channeled by brain waves
Human propelled, shifting, changing
High speed bi-ways
"Computer, self-destruct, Kirk-One-Alpha-Deltron"

"Computer, self-destruct, Kirk-One-Alpha-Deltron"

When you smile at me, multicolored birds
Fly out of my mouth and into your ear
When you laugh at me and mouth your magic
Metaphors, phrases
Open chest
Deep abyss
Helpless, unable to control
Dogs!
Every color of the rainbow
Leap out of the top of my head!
Bearing jowls of shimmering inspiration,
Snarls of deep satisfaction
Barks of books, libraries, huge, open auditoriums
Could be, to their maximum extent,
Full to the brim with words, parchments,
Notations of my unfathomable love for all you are,
All you make me, and all other lofty, untouchable
Sensibilities

Because Ka is a wheel, and time a face on water
And you must not discard that, dear daughter!
And it's our cycles that are never ending
Which means that you've got to do right sometime

Try to remember...
