He's a WHAT? he's a WHAT?[00:00:07]
He's a newspaper man[00:00:08]
And he gets his best ideas[00:00:09]
From a newspaper stand;[00:00:10]
From his boots to his pants[00:00:12]
To his comments and his rants[00:00:13]
He knows that any little article will do![00:00:14]
Though he expresses some confusion[00:00:16]
Bout his part in the plan,[00:00:17]
And he can't understand[00:00:18]
That he's not in command;[00:00:20]
The decisions underwritten[00:00:21]
By the cash in his hand[00:00:22]
Bought a sweater for[00:00:23]
His weimariner too[00:00:24]
Now i'm no mad man,[00:00:25]
But that's insanity[00:00:26]
Feast before famine,[00:00:27]
And more before family[00:00:28]
Goes and shows up with[00:00:29]
More bowls and more[00:00:31]
Cups and the riot for the[00:00:32]
Last hot meal erupts[00:00:33]
Corrupts his hard drive[00:00:34]
Through the leanest months[00:00:36]
Shells out the hard cash[00:00:37]
For the sickest stunts;[00:00:38]
On aftershave, on gasoline[00:00:39]
He flips the page and turns[00:00:42]
The scene[00:00:43]
In my mind i'm drowning butterflies[00:00:44]
Broken dreams and alibis;[00:00:48]
That's fine.[00:00:50]
I've seen my palette blown[00:00:53]
To monochrome-[00:00:55]
Hollow heart[00:00:57]
Clicks hollowtone,[00:00:58]
It's time.[00:00:59]
Eye on authority,[00:01:03]
Thumb prints a forgery[00:01:04]
Boy, ain't it crazy what the[00:01:05]
Lights can do[00:01:06]
For counterfeit community;[00:01:07]
Every opportunity[00:01:09]
Wasted as the space[00:01:10]
Between the flash tattoo[00:01:11]
And the half-hearted hologram,[00:01:12]
Posed for the party[00:01:13]
Now he gloss full bleed[00:01:15]
On a deaf dumb tree[00:01:16]
Cod liver dollar signs,[00:01:17]
Credit card autograph[00:01:18]
Down for the record[00:01:19]
But not for freedom[00:01:20]
Angry young mannequin[00:01:21]
American, apparently[00:01:23]
Still to the rhythm[00:01:24]
Better get to the back of me[00:01:25]
Can't stand the vision,[00:01:26]
Better tongue the anatomy[00:01:27]
Gold plated overhead,[00:01:28]
Blank transparency[00:01:30]
In the days of old,[00:01:31]
You were a nut[00:01:32]
Now you need three bumps[00:01:33]
Before you cut[00:01:34]
Not that i should care about,[00:01:35]
Nothing i ain't scared of, but[00:01:36]
I guess you had to be there.[00:01:37]
In my mind i'm breeding butterflies,[00:01:40]
Broken dreams, and alibis[00:01:44]
That's fine.[00:01:46]
I've seen my palette[00:01:49]
Blown to monochrome[00:01:51]
Hollow heart[00:01:53]
Clicks hollowtone[00:01:54]
In time.[00:01:55]
I see you figured in your action pose[00:01:59]
Foam-injected axl rose,[00:02:01]
Life size[00:02:04]
Should something shake you[00:02:08]
And you drop the news,[00:02:10]
Lord, just keep your dancing shoes[00:02:12]
Off mine[00:02:14]
