Fed by a silver spoon to pass away the night.
Trying to meet someone to make you feel all right
Passing the hours with the mice and men
and wake up and do it all over again.
Some people say being merry is a sin
but not to us who think it helps heal within.
Some say anti motivational syndrome
and how it permanently effects your dome.
How can you spend all your loot
on shit you sniff and the hell you boot?
How do you keep a life with a line in your face?
How do you keep it all and under the line of grace?
A fine line, we walk, the subculture bandit
since anything fun they've seemed to ban it.
So What? I might have a few of vice
and maybe even a few words of advice.
why share it when you don't know where I'm from and how I stand
Well take these 4 lines of K and listen to Electric Lady-land
Let it suck you into the speaker and spit you back out
and leave you gasping and without but one true doubt.
I'm here to make you feel closer to the power
but I don't sit up in my ivory tower.
I conversate to regulate all the inner-space
and the utter human disgrace of which we're stuck.
So don't ask, because you know I give a fuck, I'm not some lunatic
or some asshole trying to put the moves on your favorite chick.
I'm just someone who can't stand it anymore
and living a lie has become a chore..
If I have to be nice about how I spread my point
or even the fact I prefer a bong over a joint.
How are you to even hear
since you never see things that clear?
You always cloud with judgment or what you've herd,
or think about some other bad nasty word.
You run around with your head in the sand
like it was all part of your plan.
Maybe you will listen one day and see being Merry isn't bad
it's just when you decide to lose all that you've ever had.
When you make that choice deep inside
to let it take control and no longer hide.
When you become a junkie to your way of life
with your habit and your friendship knife.
Cutting the ties that bind you down
the lines that pull you into a frown.
