Beat by Scott thee Engineer and Irv Like Clockwork

lyrics

were you built to last or last to build?
what’s seven minutes in heaven to infinities in hell?
who’d have thought mankind’s downfall would erupt, from gathering two girls and supplying one cup?
animal revolt closely watched by the feds
apes live on channel sev chuckin’ nikes at the pres.
hand over fist makes the rubick’s cube twist
view the vistas through windows to pick out every glitch. ok computer radioheads all agree,
we’re nostalgic for cassettes but steal every mp3.
this year i’m hoping to finally make varsity
not being that mascot knocked out by charles barkley.
in a perfect world my life’s narrated by james earl jones all foot fetish scenes directed by tarantino
in hype williams fisheye and 24 real time
thx lucasarts hd for primetime.
scored by quincy jones and strictly for quality
my voice would be dubbed over by gilbert gotfried. enlightening? hardly,
but would sell a million copies
would score five mics and moms would be proud of me.

got nothing in the bank 400 in the mattress
20 in the couch stash the rest in the cutlass
stash it all away for this string of rainy days
crown me king for a day for my soul in exchange
traded in my whip for a new piece of mind
but i came to realize that this piece wasn’t mine
around the world in 80 schemes and 100 bad dreams
trying to get away clean get by by any means

i’m not paranoid am i? i don’t think,
i just don’t like the way this dollar bills looking at me.
up early on saturday building like art vandalay
sweet talking like i’m only in it for the foreplay.
at area 51 stashing mammoth tusks
like what’s the fun in harm if there’s no harm in fun.
ok you’re a ghoul but what’s a ghoul to a whole house full of holy ghosts?
spaced out coast to coast.
specters and goblins poltergeists and demons
waking the dead for walt disney’s unfreezin’.
(knock knock) who’s there?
(the cia.) the cia who?
(the cia is here and we came here to kill you.)

got nothing in the bank 400 in the mattress
20 in the couch stash the rest in the cutlass
stash it all away for this string of rainy days
crown me king for a day for my soul in exchange
traded in my whip for a new piece of mind
but i came to realize that this piece wasn’t mine
around the world in 80 schemes and 100 bad dreams
trying to get away clean get by by any means

this feels like the big one
the one where fred finally joins elizabeth
after years on the couch lamping watching flicks with grady
he leaves bubba, rollo, and lamont to be with his lady. rockin a kufi to match my tanooki suit
the raccoon tail makes it easier to commute.
i shot the sheriff but missed the target
the sidewalk ends now i’m back where i started.
living reckless a little more than expected,
pretending that wasted time was all splendid.
fishsticks for breakfast, lobster bib tucked in,
oj on the rocks, pancakes on the chin.
i front like i’m not jealous of doc waffles
and front like only guests use the fancy towels.
i gave a bum five bucks to play the stock market,
he bought a pint for himself and kept the small profit
he said the nasdaq was bound to plummet
and if he were to die he rather it be on a full stomach. can’t hate on that
buck fifty plus tax
beat it or join it do or die do the math.
21 bayonet salute for pluto
despite his icy demeanor he always remained neutral even when the conflict between planets became crucial he held his own knowing that beef shit gets brutal. waiting for the day ferris bueller gets expelled
about the same odds as parker lewis catching an L, scream aim fire and hear it echo
bullet for my valentine sign it with an xo.
in my stride temptations lead to the coffin
end of the whole world seen through the specs of david ruffin
went from timex to timex
to no watch at all like i had no time left.
where wolves pray before they feast on their prey
before they rip off the flesh they hold hands and say grace.
40 winks is close blood kin to that dirt nap
so don’t close your eyes you might never come back.
