Aesop Rock - Flashflood lyrics

We'll have more news after
This commercial word (And so it goes)
At least I think I was here asleep
Is it possible? Conceivable?
That I sleepwalked out of my
Apartment and went berserk?

In slid rhythm, Fetter cycle
Bound by dilemma, debt, and vendetta
Escaped briefly back to my apartment to
Park in front a fan
And reminisce about the day I ran a
Mile with your heart in my hand
Contestants get the New York home game
With real life shoot 'em up-action
Thug, vagrant
Yuppie and art freak game piece all included
I told this cat the Earth was flat
He walked 'till his beard grew
Long enough to strangle himself
For being stupid it's bric-a-brac novelties


Spliced with that sixth pack odyssey
Godspeed, tequila worm future, be concerned
My feelers spread across the
Land reporting avalanche sightings
While my introverted side is flying
Cadavers on kite strings
I'm a never give, I'm juiced off projection
I'm stubborn as a thousand
Born-agains avoiding questions
From the alpha to the zed
I bait this data for my pledge
To bathe a traitor of the twice
Forgotten favors that he bled
And not a creature stirred
It reeks of subway metal
Bevel edged journalist
Chin-on-fist shenanigans
Re-coin mayhem with bonuses
Benefit's and break room
Mummified mannequins with future
Clenched adamant and skeleton in cabinet
This amalgam circus got a ring of fire
Just big enough to shove my
Purpose in the circle
I'm known to dip dusk in a broken city curfew
Release the hounds
To see which one could track
Your trail and serve you, sucker
I lay the law down upon
It's belly while my foot
Dug in between the 3rd and 4th
Disc yelling "Break yo' self!"
I finally actualized data commission
Past penny tip jar donation arrangement
But a far fetch from stability
Took a hard pledge early on
Blood donor to drum dozer
Plowing the metronome, home
Blown caddy-cornered to cockeyed
Sound booster sensationally seismograph
Stabbing away on stone tablet to
Sketch a grouchy future
I drifted out the main spelunking
Unit with watered down
Sample of cancelled development
Courtesy America land of the freebase
Home of the triplicate grill character
My sorta sideways tilt caught pinball
Blinker and citizens 1-X
Weren't steadied for this leaning grievance
With dilapidated winter jacket
I rock a crooked lid piece and sweat a
Bit to make my wookie ends meet
Pacifist willing to step into a
Friend's beef if needed
Wing clipper out hierarchy
Passionate while they whine on some
"Daddy's gonna kill Ralphie" shit
Suck the proverbial silver spoon 'till
Their parents quit apparently
Parasol spinning casually like
"I'm an artist, please don't laugh at me"
OK, time to buckle the fuck down
Solder your wobbly system back
To original form, pumpkin
You could catch the memoir
In several dimensions
The joy-of-life logic don't employ
The spite process hence your plight botches

No i don't know what got into me
I didn't mean to cause all that destruction
I'm sorry so sorry

This be the, this be the big
F-L-A-S-H-F-L-O-O-D, flashflood
This be the big
F-L-A-S-H-F-L-O-O-D, flashflood
This be the big
F-L-A-S-H-F-L-O-O-D, flashflood
This be the big
F-L-A-S-H-F-L-O-O-D, flashflood

Possible, conceivable possible, conceivable
Possible, conceivable possible, conceivable
Possible, conceivable possible, conceivable
Possible, conceivable
That I sleepwalked out of my
Apartment and went berserk
