Feel the funk blast Feel the funk blast Feel the funk blast Feel the funk blast Feel the funk blast Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, check it out, yo, yo, yo I be walkin' God like a dog, my narrative, fearless My word war returns to burn like Baldwin home from Paris Like Steel from a furnace, I was born landless This is the native son, born of Zapata's guns Stroll through the shanties and the cities' remains Same bodies buried hungry but with different last names The vultures rob everything, leave nothing but chains Pick a point on the globe, yes, the picture's the same There's a bank, there's a church, a myth and a hearse A mall and a loan, a child dead at birth There's a widow pig parrot, a rebel to tame A white-hooded judge, a syringe and a vein And the riot be the rhyme of the unheard What you say, what you say, what you say, what? What you say, what you say, what you say, what? What you say, what you say, what you say, what? What you say, what you say, what you say, what?

Hot procession Gloomy Conga of glum looking beauties Strolling through the opening scene Where'd you want it? It's your decision honey, my planet or yours? Sectoral heterochromia Aviation in the evening I can feel it coming on Mama told me you should start As you mean to go wrong Or else you're never gonna get it right Señorita Well you need not come Coke head close to me 'Cause I can hear you perfectly clear from here Aviation in the evening I can feel it coming on Mama told me you should start As you mean to go wrong Or else you're never gonna get it right Elementary Hallelujahs Annalise's dulcet tones Aviation in the evening I just can't leave it alone I reckon I just might have broke the ice The Colourama in your eyes It takes me on a moonlight drive It's the way you wing it While you're figuring it out

Come down tapping on the glass As I lock the passenger door Somehow it got in the back Now I can't relax anymore Last night got a hold of me I can't wrestle free from my head Sunlight banging on the wall Begging me for more promises And I slip and I slide Like a spider on an icicle Frozen in time It's a trick of the light I got a girl around the corner still Trying to change my mind And never in my wildest dreams Has it occurred to me to try to go to sleep Wonder whether I'll grow curious When old Dr. Dusk comes to call for me Midnight I'm like her specialty She'll outmuscle me, certainly In the end Midnight has got the hots for me And I'm about to be Born again Love hearts heavy in her hands Oh no not again! New regrets Rough start but we all know that dance Do those old boots remember the steps? And I slip and I slide Like a spider on an icicle Frozen in time It's a trick of the light I got a girl around the corner still Trying to change my mind And never in my wildest dreams Has it occurred to me to try to go to sleep Wonder whether I'll grow curious When old Dr. Dusk comes to call for me Midnight I'm like her specialty She'll outmuscle me, certainly In the end Midnight has got the hots for me And I'm about to be Born again

I just sort of always feel sick without you, baby I ain't got anything to lick without you, baby Nothing seems to stick without you, baby Ain't I fallen in love? It's just the pits without you, baby It's really just the pits without you, baby It's like everyone's a dick without you, baby Ain't I fallen in love? And all my pals will tell me is that I'm crazy You bet I'm loopy, alright And I just don't recognise This fool that you have made me Whoa, I ain't seen him for a while And as your shrinking figure blows a kiss I catch and smash it on my lips Darling, I can't seem to quit Completely falling to bits I really might be losing it The idea that you've existed All along's ridiculous I don't know what to say Baby, we ought to fuck Seven years of bad luck out The parlour room mirror Could I have made it any clearer? It's love like a tongue in a nostril Love like an ache in the jaw You're the first day of spring With a septum piercing Little Miss Sweet Dreams, Tennessee

When we walked the streets together All the faces seemed to smile back And now the pavements have nothing to offer And all the faces seem to need a slap There's an unfamiliar grip On an unfamiliar handkerchief Attending to the tears on cheeks I wouldn't notice with you No matter how vicious the grief Her expression was damp and crooked Grabs onto my throat and won't let go Won't let go Won't let go Won't let go Save me from The secateurs I'll pretend I didn't hear Can't you see I'm the ghost in the wrong coat? Biting butter and crumbs There's a handsome maverick You don't talk about to keep me calm And I can't help it if I create a version That pulls you back onto his arm Please don't tell me You don't have to darling, I can sense That he painted you a gushing sunset And slayed angry panthers in your defence And he stands separate and ever deadly Clings onto my throat and won't let go Won't let go Won't let go Won't let go Save me from The secateurs I'll pretend I didn't hear Can't you see I'm a ghost in the wrong coat? Biting butter and crumbs Save me from The secateurs I'll pretend I didn't hear Can't you see I'm a ghost in the wrong coat? Biting butter and crumbs

Colour pictures of re-entry Voices calling down the hall I wanted you to know You're the only one that bent me This far out of shape Don't make no mistake I'm a liar, I'm a cheat A leech, a thief The outside looks no good and there ain't nothing underneath Darling, can't you see? My heart melted in the heat My heart melted in the heat, like yours First impressions of the century Two-way mirror, one-way street Good cop, bad cop routine Black-light animal print boogie Left in a heap A kiss on either cheek I'm a phoney, I'm a fake A fraud, a snake Gimme all your love so I can fill you up with hate Girl, I'm in a state My heart melted yesterday My heart melted yesterday, like yours The odyssey Came down kind of hard on me The here and now so suddenly Became a different world Finally, I slipped out of reality It must all be imaginary She used to be my girl Used to be my girl Used to be my girl Used to be my girl Used to be my girl

Lazy afternoon strolls make for her howls At the trees Going home with trouble written in dirt on Her knees There's nowhere else to be Off into the long grass I want her to drag me away Every single footpath That I ever try and take She'll circumnavigate They pass us by and we're just out of view They don't have a clue They're in ones they're in twos They're in sensible shoes They're in purple cagoules She'll jump in the river You'll wish you're the water And like no one else could She does the woods Faces made for daylight Ought to be out of the house You'd do the moon and back twice easy Just to kiss half of her mouth She's what it's all about They pass us by and we're just out of view They don't have a clue They're in ones they're in twos They're in sensible shoes They're in purple cagoules She'll jump in the river You'll wish you're the water And like no one else could She does the woods She does the woods She turns my back to the earth And shows me that's Where I'm meant to be I hear the chirps from the birds As if they heard somebody coming I see her lit from behind Looking down on me In front of a natural tapestry that's like a Spirograph of branches That dance in the breeze She'll jump in the river You'll wish you're the water She'll jump in the river You'll wish you're the water And like no one else could (She does the woods)
