[** sample "Rattlin' Bones" by Kasey Chambers and Shane Nicholson:] |
|
Yo Yo Yo* |
|
Straight from the shed |
|
With a shovel in my hand |
|
My bible's a rifle you gotta understand (yeah) |
|
That the streets need a weapon |
|
And out here, the sheep need a shepherd |
|
So as long as I'm here you won't witness evil |
|
I'm a rhyme to a sky full of Christmas beetles |
|
Where, mind power cracks the code |
|
My welcome mat to a happy home |
|
Rattlin bones and a broken compass |
|
Watch me use those bones as drumsticks |
|
Bam Bam it's Bedrock baby |
|
Ringin the alarm that we set off daily |
|
Gone with the wind when I'm out the sunroof |
|
I sleep on the gas in a muddy pair of ugboots |
|
In the back is my lucky dingo |
|
And he attacks like a punch from Kimbo |
|
Slice, dice scratch my lyrics |
|
And see my DJ? Yeah that's my lizard |
|
Still there when the ship is sinking |
|
Cause we're the kings of wishful thinking |
|
In a house that lays in my head and the |
|
Sun was money there were days that I spent |
|
With my face to the fence, speechless, |
|
Until I made you my friend |
|
That's when your mates came by, |
|
And you said listen to this and you did |
|
With headphones on in a zone unknown now I'm glad you know where I live (right here) |
|
Together we stand, divided we fall |
|
To play this game keep your eyes on the ball |
|
Live for the minute, die for the culture |
|
See through the dark when the violet is ultra |
|
Smoke don't rise |
|
Fuel don't burn |
|
Sun don't shine no more |
|
Late one night, sorrow come round |
|
Scratching at my door |
|
But I cut my hands |
|
And break my back |
|
Draggin' this bag of stones |
|
Till they bury me down, beneath the ground |
|
With the dust and rattlin' |
|
I just daydream from the front seat of a humvee |
|
Press eject then bungee to jumanji |
|
To the place where the rhino's rumble |
|
Spread far like the hydro hustle |
|
In the jungle fall with chainsaws |
|
Sell fate to walk though maze walls |
|
Free thinkers, free talkers |
|
Waltz on water like sea walkers |
|
Rise up, levitate like this |
|
Till times up, celebrate life's gifts |
|
Paint pop culture like Warhol |
|
With the words that I churn though my portal |
|
An electric, lightning bolt sky |
|
Dive inside my kaliedoscope eyes |
|
The vision is a sight to see |
|
There should'nt be a place on earth where life is cheap |
|
Space pirate, cat with golden wings |
|
Raise your sail, catch your solar wind |
|
I just ride away have a story, |
|
Cats cook in their hide-away labratories |
|
Let it simmer, bubble and slow |
|
Beers in the bin, Blood in the bowl |
|
Never... My office desktop is... and... |
|
My band spans the high and low frequencies |
|
Love life and it's ideo syncrocies |
|
Simply called a rap with friends |
|
Another artistic awesome accident |
|
This is for you, stand in the rain with a |
|
Vista view the champion change |
|
Until it's late and the canvas is stained |
|
When the paints sprayed and the canisters drained |
|
Smoke don't rise |
|
Fuel don't burn |
|
Sun don't shine no more |
|
Late one night, sorrow come round |
|
Scratching at my door |
|
But I cut my hands |
|
And break my back |
|
Draggin' this bag of stones |
|
Till they bury me down, beneath the ground |
|
With the dust and rattlin' |
