Aesop Rock - Night Light lyrics

Day turns night, day turns night
Day turns night, day turns night
Day turns night, day turns night
Day turns night, day turns night
Night Light, sucka!

Put one up for shackle me
Not clean logic procreation
I did invent the wheel
In a previous generation
While the triple sixers' lassos keep
Angels roped in the basement
I locate modern halos and pass
'em out to the cavemen
Y'all catch a 30-second flash frame
Dirty cooperative med platoon
Bloom, head-trip split fantastic!
Fathom the splicing of major league low-life
With anti hero earthworm
Mentality – Godzilla!
I pace my game for zero-hour completion


See, a cretin's still a cretin
Even speakin' altered moniker
American nightmare lost in the monitor
I'll hold the door open
So you can stagger through
Then send berserker-bred Jukies in after you
It's Gutter, and I spell it with the 'G' I
Stole from "Get the fuck up!"
Noise crutch stolen wretched refuse of
My teeming dumb luck
Still I promise: temperance towards
Breed still bleeding Amish
See, the freaks sucked out the wattage
While three bears invade the cottage
And I can't sleep now! yeah
The police'll laugh
You won't be laughing when
Your covered wagons crash
You won't be laughing when you're hosted
By the ghost of Christmas past
You won't be laughing when
Your blow-up doll's got
A headache and won't give up the ass
I'ma lay my kicks to rest when I'm impressed
So I staple-gun 'em to my feet
This origami dream is beautiful:
Pull the tail, watch the wings flap
But you really can't do a thing with that

All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
Swallow up the pieces
Spit 'em at your species
Beached in a city of
Lost barnacles and leeches
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin' (Day turns night)
Night Light, Day Light, Night Light
Day Light
Night Light, Day Light, Night Light
Day Light
Night Light, Day Light, Night Light
Day Light night Light, sucka!

I'm pretty sure I got a pulse
Plus we Shimmy cross the centerfold
And our night light engulfed
Just let me keep the crumbs (Please)
With seven deadly stains
Adhere the blame to crystal conscience
The result's a dead-beat tryin' to make
A dollar off a bomb threat
Okay, link me to activism chain
Activate wild-style Pluto orbit
Set a course, then push the button
I swallow spores born by the laws
Of a morbid glutton– Alley gospel
I can spot a duck battalion
By the Charlie Chaplin waddle (gone)
Zig-zag and zig 'em again
Before the pig can pull a badge
Out for the lash out
Another thick installment of one
Night in Gotham like, "Houston
We have a problem: they're
Buffing the trains the
Same day the graffiti writers bomb 'em!"
Who split holiday freaks on box-cut
Cinema high road bellow?
Head gripped, watch red bricks turn yellow!
I'm tryin' to meet the wizard
But a tailgating tin man holding
A oil can won't
Let a hermit crab break in his new shell-toes
Life's not a bitch: life is a beyotch
Who keeps the villagers
Circling the marketplace
Out searching for the g-spot
Maybe she didn't feel y'all
Shared any similar interests
Or maybe you're just an asshole –
Maybe I'm just an asshole!
Kiss the speaker wire (kiss)
Sammy Swashbuckler pagan threshhold
Stomach full of diner food
Wingspan cast black upon views
Here to help release the rabid hounds
Or pick apart your mood
I got this friend of polar nature
And it's all peace
You and I seek similar stars but
Can't sit at the same feast metal Captain
This cat is askin' if I've seen
His bit of lost passion i told him: "yeah
" and gave him one last look and smashed him

All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
Swallow up the pieces
Spit 'em at your species
Beached in a city of
Lost barnacles and leeches
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light, Day Light, Night Light
Day Light
Night Light, Day Light, Night Light
Day Light
Night Light, Day Light, Night Light
Day Light night Light, sucka!

Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Night Light got me when the
Daylight went to evenin'
Day turns night, day turns night
Day turns night
Day turns night, day turns night
Day turns night
