I am not convinced at all
This door used to be closed, I once recall
Saw what your world had to offer
And I'm not interested anymore
Do not attempt to follow me
There is one place I now must be
In the sky
Oh right to the sky
Now’s time to make distinctions
You have exceeded your time in the sun
Jockey to communicate
Yet you don’t have a single thing to say
Do not attempt to follow me
There is one place I now must be
In the sky
Oh right to the sky

Hybrid Vigour
02:52

Sexy neanderthal
Storming through cavern walls
Upright on the seaboard,
Embankments firmly shored
On continental shelves,
Flirting amongst themselves
Completely unaware
While homos block the stairs
Pangaea splits again
Horny cro-magnons
Completely unaware
While methane fills the air
Gigantic dormice squeak
Tar pits are not off-peak
Subspecies are deranged
By introgressive brains
All the erecti who laughed at the ape
Can’t climb a tree cuz they’re so out of shape
Pray that your predator lets you escape
That hybrid vigour, ooh

Come take a bath with me
We can bathe in slush
We can bathe in lymph
We can bathe in egg
Come take a bath with me
We can bathe in sauce
We can bathe in chyme
We can bathe in gas
Come take a bath with me
Could they, perhaps if, maybe when
(please believe, please believe, disabled are we)
Sort of, because we're unsure why
(please comply, please comply, enabled thereby)
Or, well, since how come there isn't?
(discontent, discontent, impending dissent)
And what okay is alright soon
(tranquilize, tranquilize, heed what we advise)
Maybe when

DON'T GO

Love has been adjourned
Now I’m laying face down on the hallway
Chassis overturned
Self-assembling origami bouquet
Hey, wait
DON'T GO
Exanimate mate
Captured ova dangling from the ramparts
Listening to Kate
Sedentary, parallel to nothing
Hey wait
DON'T GO

Love Limbo

If there's something wrong, there's nothing wrong today
I've locked the boxer brief and it's okay
A hermaphrodite wakes up at night,
Parrots everything I say:
“There's nothing wrong, nothing wrong today”
Everything's the same inside my head
Our fantasies are chained to the same sled, so
Let me kiss me one more time before I go
Turn around and we're caught in a love limbo
Paladins with ornate plastic scimitars
and ten-pound rats with invisible solar cars
The fist in my hand is piercing my mind
He's telling me that everything is fine
and if I should shed a tear of dismay
Then something quite wrong will happen today
Everything's the same inside my head
Our fantasies are chained to the same sled, so
Let me kiss me one more time before I go
Turn around and we're caught in a love limbo
Paladins with ornate plastic scimitars
and ten-pound rats with invisible solar cars
Everything's the same inside my head
Everything is solid milk, my son
The air will all be mist when we are done
Everything's white, even at night
The bleaching has begun
Everything is solid milk, my son
Love Limbo

Hieroglyphic Sky
04:02
|

Look at me, I'm all alone
When bobcat brains and tiger bones
come running down the driveway in your eye
Lost beneath a tuft of flesh
that's barbed with tons of wire mesh
and ancient manuscript speaks of the Hieroglyphic Sky
The Hieroglyphic Sky is going to make you cry
A bead of urea will formulate in your eye
The Hieroglyphic Sky is going to make you cry
A bead of urea will formulate in your eye, woo hoo
Copyrighted catacombs
and surly kids from broken homes
begin to slowly fade away and die
What was once a bleak platoon
is now a bustling saloon
Three thousand weathered heads turn towards the hieroglyphic sky
The Hieroglyphic Sky is going to make you cry
A bead of urea will formulate in your eye
The Hieroglyphic Sky is going to make you cry
A bead of urea will formulate in your eye, woo hoo
