Aesop Rock - Catacomb Kids lyrics

I was a dark, dumb student, no hooky rookie
Day tripping on visions of chickens that
Look like R crumb drew em
They grew em in a royal
Dirt of Suffolk County's
Flooring with the blood of an
Alcoholic clergyman in his forearms
Long Island was porn stars
And puppies pushing sniffles
Fit into the aforementioned or
Slipped through the pinholes
Zook slipped through the pinholes
Crispy the God sender
Who thunk over a quarter plunk
To local Mortal Kom vender
Both the formal squad censor, look down
Either side across the marsh before
It was awesome cars
My calling card cavalry cooking
An '85 Dodge Ares
Gas for Huntington and back barely


Equipped with Super-Soakers full of piss
And an uncanny knack for constantly upsetting
Pigs by doing stupid shit
The kid piloted his ring king
Dummies to King Kullen
Where he hollered fuck the world from
A parking lot in the suburbs what's this
A couple spray cans and a little litter
But they'd look at us like swindlers
With them Ricky Kasso jitters so fuck em
A glutton sunk into the alley for props
But things will still go bump
When them halogens pop
Believe I'll be there when it happens
The shaking of the plates off the mantle
The snaking of the flames off the candle
The lady of the lake off the answers
Admitting the mistakes to
Their deplaning cadavers
Now it's rest in peace Will Peterson
Whose heater sung disturbingly to
Further re-evaluate your beast
Of burden's urgency
Damn doggy, good times, thanks
I wrote your name in wet
Cement by the Brooklyn Banks what's this

I'm an activator made a fire, made a wheel
Made a snack for later
Catacomb kids cuddle up and test the flavor
When the towns speed freaks sleep
Trap the traitor, he will ask for papers
What's this say I'm an activator
Made a roof, made a weapon
Made a flag per acre
By the snotty little muzzle
Of a latch-key neighbor
When the folk push aggie over
Some dap with gators
He will catch the vapors

Couple Playboy mudflaps and hell on his heels
Beautifully echoed in the pace at
Which he shovel his meals
Like not a farmer among us had
A harvest survive the winter
So dinner split a lima bean in triplets
Pick a winner took a couple summers puking
Pills behind the dumpster
As the largest Pez dispenser on
Record recouped his numbers
One shoe in the soupy gutter
One shoe in the velvet heaven
Where the mermaids told him shake em
By the lake of melted weapons what's this
You could dance purty with
The hooligan nation who will be patiently
Awaiting zoo-keeper facelift
Extra the days of yore
Painted similar uber-ape shit
We've merely updated the ancient 8-bit
Yeah I'm dumber than a cow on
A roof in a flood
Who's not as dumb as the watered down
Beef from the burgers that jumped
I'm dumber than a Taz on a
Beach chair with a martini
Who's not as dumb as the
Tat wit the same scenery what's this
Sparky nails pig stigmata for all good sport
Garbage pail kids unite at
The mall food court
They chase cheese fries with Binaca
They had shut the school down early
There were bombs inside the lockers
No concept of the problem
We responded like a snow day
It was clobber shit to flotsam
Til the cops said it was okay
Okay show the squadrons back into their boxes
Like his Breakfast Club of hotheads show
No progress to the doctors
And I walk into the office
Coughing awful ether often
Flood a parking meter fever
Knuckle up for Love and Rockets
It was reign of the razor laser
Day of the cloudy howdy
Flight of the shelter melter
You can bow without me what's this

I'm an activator made a fire, made a wheel
Made a snack for later
Catacomb kids cuddle up and test the flavor
When the towns speed freaks sleep
Trap the traitor, he will ask for papers
What's this say I'm an activator
Made a roof, made a weapon
Made a flag per acre
By the snotty little muzzle
Of a latch-key neighbor
When the folk push aggie over
Some dap with gators
He will catch the vapors

Watch me jump what's this
Knock em out the box, Aes
