[Aesop Rock - Tetra lyrics]
I turn a staff to a snake and back
Evade crack
Shake a 5150 in shades and a fake stache
Dirtbike made of 5 worse bikes, uphill
Tabletop frames on dutch tilt, crush kill
Maker bot coin-op arcade punk
Talkin’ arcane science, dark age pulp
Four eyes carb face, Bar-Kays iron on
Pork rinds orangeade, Jarred brains die alone
No Mulligans, crow bars bird cage
Cold, colonize Mars on Earth day
And surface from the cellar door
Like worms into the petrichor
Messenger, better yet a vessel
For a Tetris score
Zilch, cowabunga homies call
Me "press ignore"
Devastating energy exploding off
His Tesla coil
Farm bated breath and tempermental tremors
That taught a man to wave with
10 percent of his fingers
And I never lost tic tac
Toe to a live chicken
For the footage, I’m off cam dynamite fishin’
For diamondback rattles in his holy grail
Evoke colony collapse via gross betrayal
3 wolf moon shirt, two shoes one sock
Wore the same hoodie everyday like Mumm-Ra
Buh dum-bum
Follow the regenerated rebel flesh
Out of sorts, out of water
Suicidal tetrafish
Who stood by the conviction in his
We should be together less forevermore
Before we are the severed heads of civil war
Invasive radio ricochet off the silver foil
Trash can fire looking for a
Kill to grill or spoil
Quickly, purveyors of fine hijinks
I know, this is why we can’t have nice things
I prefer to skip the pleasantries
Flip the diner table
Dip in time for final jeopardy
No shit oh and don’t fool with his cool
Ma, can we get a pool? … Is that a no?
Okay, magpies, Hoarders, and allied forces
Who lick zig-zags being dragged by horses
Transcribe stories in patterns
Of pins dropping
Skinned boars and exaggerated limb-lopping
Slow Mozart, no I’ve never heard of knocking
Might’ve burst in on it
Split's or skin popping
Opt out, sober on the eve of no saints day
Locate and aim for the token propane tank
Bang! Followed from a pulling of hair
To a homecoming sullied by a skull on a spear
It spun a human resources
Issue to public affair
Reciprocity is a pestilent compulsion to bear
And ultimately unfulfilling
Concurrently that rigid upper lip
And grudge are crippling
The wonder twins of bitching armchair hater
I wouldn’t piss on your coffin
But when I see your picture
I draw dicks on it the Ozone breakaway tux
Holds chicken wire ribs and paper mache guts
Pipe cleaner mustache, rope hands google eyes
Macaroni gas face, no plan to humanize
You are now rockin’ with the worst
Nothing up his sleeve
Nothing here is what it seems
Paranormal weather
Mysteriously disappearing bees
Not to mention the collateral
Delirium it breeds
Jeez, forgive him any dicey past
He from a tiny town called Deaths Icy Grasp
And he don't get out much
But when he do it's Beatlemania
Do not be asleep at the
Feet of his feelers radius too charitable
Offerin’ the average joe some real estate
Between the Big Mouth Billy
Bass and jackalope cozy in a moment of bliss
Snatch the food off your plate
Snatch a goat off a bridge no shit
