Prize fighter eyes, psych units cry for equality
Bipolar pen drops, manic pinpricks, depressive, progressive
Thirty five cents on this terrapin table, today's tabernacle
Distant, loner, accepting a gentle love, lunar lunatics
Cat paw flower prints on the piano, perfume pack rat
Bed bug bite fest, black blue eyelids, coffee catastrophes
Eyes closed dreamily, internal demons be bustin' my chops
Pig trash slops, prodigal son rain drops as the beat talks
Red haired ruffians showing off fresh filed teeth
Fried eggs delicious beyond belief after starving for days
Switch the pen, shape the clay, jewels in a jar of jawbreakers
****** by all the goodness sakers, we're just givers and takers
Schizophrenic blitzkrieg, a thousand leagues under the sea
Busy bumblebee, do your little dance, show your friends the pollen trail
Sparrow, quail, pigeon **** ghetto gridlock, quarters in a sock
A bandanna and a lock, sheared sheep flocks, Rasta dread locks
Thumbin' down Memorial drive with child wide eyes
Sittin' in a grainer on the fly, on a train to do or die
Spit on the window of the violent cell, no name just VC1
Gunshot one shot ink blot blood spots corpse rots
Hard knocks, break rocks, first men to be shell shocked
Pop goes the weasel, blank canvas on the easel
Monks covered in diesel, Buddhist breathing candles
Nothing left, not even sandals, raise a toast, l'chaim
When you give up you die, face today with wide eyes
Does God cry? I do, should say I try to, skip to the loo
