MC Frontalot - Forbidden Planet lyrics
[MC Frontalot - Forbidden Planet lyrics]
I’ve seen a monkey trying hard
To love a robot, yo
But all they ever do is fight
To the death for your soul
They’re on a planet that I never
Meant to visit at all got a sign on the wall
The decree: you don’t go
So come on, make your trespass
Get your flesh fast
Turned to dust by the death rays
These are the best days
Of our lives: mad scientists with swirly eyes
People with supernatural powers who
Live in disguise who live in the skies
Swing between the sky scrapers
Capes all-a-drape in the words
On the shiny papers
That the stapler turned to a booklet
Or otherwise perfect bound
So when the glue dries in my old age
Loose pages all around
Sound of the wind rustling
Cowboy zombies ride
Lassoing up the carrion calves
And a skeletal bride
I’m telling you I don’t study
The phrenology no more
But, I’m astounded by the size of
The heads in the store
And I score my pull full
Moons and the howls commence
Tear through a stack in a
Night with little reticence
I’m eating venisons in the woods
Get an axe to the dome
Ken is in pieces behind me I
Can still hear him groan
I should have known from the warning encoded
Into the name of the place:
Forbidden planet, in impermissible space
And on the surface of the planet
Insanity abounds
Eternal beings shape my sleep
And every waking sound
That I make is loud "Shazam!" I’d say
Just to startle you
(a geek ejaculation in between a
Wave and a particle) did a part of you just
Die just like Clay Loudermilk
Shaving information out of a dog without
A head? And now the silk
Smoking jacket worn by the
Smartest kid on earth
To the brick hats from Ignatz
That fly in posthumous volumes
At once coeval and incompossible: all rooms
At all times
Silver age and foil covers mingle
Something eldritch in the aisle: soul of
The man who filched a single
Glance at the most forbidden object
On the whole orb
I hint not at quixotic wandering
Take the whole tour
Look on the shelf under Rapper next to Elf
You’ll see a Frontalot one-fold if I
Have to smuggle it in myself
I’m gonna hand-scribble it onto a
Napkin and then scan it
Print a pile of ‘em out
Deliver ‘em to the planet
I’ll acquire a quire and if you
Don’t know what I mean
Look it up: it’s one twentieth of a ream
You think you surrender me to
The funny animals who inhabit
But, I camp out in the cockpit of
The crash land cause they’re all rabid
Don’t jinx me now
I’m about to escape from here yet
And I’m stranded alone
In need of some rescue
Already ran out of food
Masticated my left shoe
Built a robot companion on accident
Programmed it to feel so when it spared a
Little monkey from despair
It's fate was sealed
I’ve seen a monkey trying hard
To love a robot, yo
But all they ever do is fight
To the death for your soul
They’re on a planet that I never
Meant to visit at all got a sign on the wall
The decree: you don’t go
To love a robot, yo
But all they ever do is fight
To the death for your soul
They’re on a planet that I never
Meant to visit at all got a sign on the wall
The decree: you don’t go
So come on, make your trespass
Get your flesh fast
Turned to dust by the death rays

Of our lives: mad scientists with swirly eyes

Live in disguise who live in the skies
