lyrics

Sex sells but you can get arrested if you buy it
So I myself have yet to be a client
Plus I'm dead broke and it feels wrong
Like when I'm watching Check and Double Check
And it makes me sick to my stomach
In 1936 I was posing as a derelict
In a socialite society as an experiment
Anita was my sponsor, I was her protege
Priscilla was a killa' and she wanted me on the blade
I like to make believe that I'm a product of simplicity
Born upon the Ozark range in Missouri
One with the sticks and the banjo picks
Far from the guns and the Rambo flicks
A man told me that our blood was thicker than the waves
But he ran from the water when he saw it break the barricade
Lucky man in his landlocked state
And he hobbled my legs, now I can't walk straight

Lycanthropic MC from the green capes of Senegal
Bouncing off the kennel walls like a tennis ball
I busted out now I'm on the road to Zanzibar
Me without a microphone is like a raga sans sitar
Remember back in the black days of Dracula
Mass packs of rats setting traps for me in Latvia
Like Frankenstein and electroshock therapy
A fractured spine and a loss of any memory
I've long since fled the great state of Texas
Running from an hour worth of minutemen with deathsticks
Out of mind in their miserable lives
And throwing knives if I'm crossing their invisible lines
These are pitiful times here, man, and I can't hang no more
My beans are boiled, blood, I'm bouncing back to Bangalore
I'm out of place on this planet full of humans
In the crater covered satellite rays I'm consuming

I don't really know how many fish are in the pond
And I can't count the stars on which I've wished upon
There is no space between us
I'm the floor, I'm the centipede
I'm everything and nothing at once
