Would you love a white elephant?
Should it point you towards the sun?
Well babe I brought my UV shades
Starting any day our toes could curl
Like satellites towards the golden one
Would you take a psychosex bitch's elevator pitch?
A dynamic that will hit you like a roundhouse kick
Well babe my smile is dirt
You can sow the seeds of words
Let them gestate and then hurl them
Like a deal with old Dr. Faust
Slow down darling
Let it germinate your mind
Let the universe gesticulate at just the right time

Got lots of friends that'll float away
Past this very special day
Wearing ugly outfits we can't keep
We're all out of the cup we were left to steep
Walking up to a chorus of cell phones
Guess what's on my mind?
Once this is all over I know how I'll spend my time
Graduation cheesecake
Graduation cheesecake
Some girl up front is giving a speech
All I can see is the cake I'm 'bout to reach
Caps and tassels are so old hat
Just right to the left then they're tossed in the vat
Shakin' hands with the big league tricksters
Guess what's on my mind?
Once this is all over I know how I'll spend my time
Graduation cheesecake

Take A Load Off Kitty

I saw Schrodinger's cat up on the lost & found
The paper's soaking wet on the pole up front my house
Weeks have passed and I'm at my wit's end
As to whether Schrodinger ever saw his cat again
Take a load off kitty
Take a load off me
Meantime I'll give Anna Lee company company
Take a load off kitty
Take a load off me
Meantime I'll give Anna Lee company company
My eyes were peeled & poised when the paper first met my gaze
Though they came to open with the passing days
I thought to myself "Why not lean towards the more full glass?"
Schrodinger could've seen the soggy paper and decided he couldn't be assed
Take a load off kitty
Take a load off me
Meantime I'll give Anna Lee company company
Take a load off kitty
Take a load off me
Meantime I'll give Anna Lee company company

We all think that we're a V
Put in camps to disagree
Double party double think
More grassroots philosophy
A portmanteau of false facts worth learning
Oxymoron Oxycodone
Gonna gentrify my brain
Read articles to maintain
Learn my party's new speak
Contrast makes me insane
A portmanteau of false facts worth learning
Oxymoron Oxycodone
A portmanteau of false facts worth learning
Oxymoron Oxycodone
Call me wrong and I will gaslight for you
Play me like a recorder

Amontillado helps my bravado
Woe is the sudden brick wall
For a minute I cowered and sat overpowered
Laughter echoed as I stalled
Sisyphus stared at an order so tall he asked if he even can
After a breath I vested his spirits and then burst through like the Kool-Aid man
Our woes and ideals aspire to play hocket
Poe sits and stares at a crow
Or was it a raven I could be mistaken
Or bending the rules for the flow
Amontillado helps my bravado
Woe is the sudden brick wall
For a minute I cowered and sat overpowered
Laughter echoed as I stalled
Sisyphus stared at an order so tall he asked if he even can
After a breath I vested his spirits and then burst through like the Kool-Aid man
I've been here searching for ya
Three A.M. tired out my mind
I've tried it magnified it
Suit yourself
Serve yourself
There was this script I crafted
Picked the part with the fewest lines
I recite it when I fight it
Suit yourself
Serve yourself
Soul searching solely for soul searching

Burrito on a plate
Can't help but feel the grace
Frozen and looking slick
Locked eyes and we just clicked
Wish it were
As simple as
An evenly cooked fast snack
Molten hot on the out
Can't help but feel doubt
Can you say what's inside?
I took a bite and fucking died
Wish it were
As simple as
An evenly cooked fast snack

Picking At Her Brain

She,
She dimmed the lights,
To dim them more,
To help find,
What she's looking for,
It's a thing that I can't see,
A thing behind her eyes,
She'll bring the kerosene,
There is no lamp in sight,
She places drawings over the dents of her wall,
She places rings on a lamp about to fall,
I'll never know what goes on in there,
But I'll try 'till I drop,
Dead,
Stiff and rigorous,
Enigma in her skin,
Let's brew the life potion,
We'll find ingredients,
Water that horses drink,
Pleasant things to think,
Comfort in the falling sands,
Every grain is another chance,
She places drawings over the dents of her wall,
She places rings on a lamp about to fall,
I'll never know what goes on in there,
But I'll try 'till I drop dead,
I'll try 'till I drop dead,

After a breath I vested his spirits and then burst through like the Kool-Aid man
