Janelle Monáe - CD Booklet lyrics
[Janelle Monáe - CD Booklet lyrics]
The enclosed songs, text and images are the
Work, vision and dreams of Janelle Monáe
Palace of the Dogs Patient i
Have decided to release
This work in accordance with
The Inspiration Information Act
(I would like to stop here
To openly state that I
Have been coerced into this
Decision by the Zoids
That I am convinced now that 1954
Is not just a year–it
Is an army that the Palace
Of the Dogs is haunted
And has been for many yearsand that
Many things in the "real
World" around us are not what
They seembut I digress)
As the director of the Palace
Of the Dogs Arts Asylum
A state-of-the-art federal facility
For mutants, lost geniuses and savants
I must tell you that Janelle
Monáe is rather unique
Her Metropolis story–Suites
2 and 3 of which are
Compiled here–is compelling
And on some emotional level, dare I say it
Believable her story has
Four major components:
That she, Janelle Monáe
Is actually from the year 2719
That she was snatched
Genoraped and de-existed in
That year–or in 21st Century parlance
She was kidnapped by some
Bodysnatchers one day after work
Then had her genetic codes
Sold illegally to the
Highest bidder at a body
Farm, and then lastly
She was forced into a time tunnel
And sent back to our era
Back in the year of 2719
There is now a famous android
Named Cindi Mayweather whose
Organic compounds were cloned from
Ms monáe's stolen DNA
I've spent the better part of
The last two years, doing my
Best to gather all the various
Elements of this story
As well as to investigate all
The various parties involved most
Of the story does not bear
Logical sense for example, her
Claim that she worked at the Palace
Of the Dogs Musiquarium with
The production duo and "punk prophets"
Deep Cotton is impossible
For according to federal records and
Palace of the Dogs files
Deep Cotton has been officially
Dead for 56 years, since 1954
Dubious claims and inconsistencies aside
Is Janelle Monáe crazy? Is she truly from
The year 2719? Is her direct
Cloned descendand The ArchAndroid?
Is the American
Government tied to the Great Divide?
Is there a world called Metropolis waiting
For us in the future? A
World full of elves and dwarves? Humans
And androids? Clones and aliens?
And most importantly
If the ArchAndroid does existcan
She truly save us?
