lyrics

I see you hiding in your cruiser in the brush
Are you there for my protection?
Or will I become a victim of your revenue collection?
You know we’re in a rush, everybody’s yellin’ mush
With the debt accumulating in the gutter like slush
According to the surgeon general, we all need lobotomies
To keep us bored and surfing channels, eating, clogging arteries
That’s why I’m callin’ for a Mass Wake-Up
I had to wake up too, used to sleep walk and break up
Butts from the ashtray in a nightmare scene
The man had me hooked to his poison nicotine
Once upon a time I was spun out of my mind
In a cycle of illusion and then hung out on the line
The clothes pin won’t win when strong wind blows
Like the clippers on zero, I lost sheep clothes
Now the moon is full, the wolf is loose and hungry
Immune to destitution, I don’t have a use for money

Can you hear me? I know you see me
No need to fear me, I just wanna be your friend
I know you hear me, so let’s make it easy
A handshake is clearly the best way for this to end

Hahahahahahahahaha
I don’t want to kill you, don’t be ridiculous
I wanna see you shining in the sun like Jack Nicholas
Teeing off at noon, hitting green from the gold tee
I’m not prone to anger anymore, that was the old me
Now I’m doing yoga in a sativa spell
Using the ujjayi breath like an ocean swell
After dedicating myself completely to the flow
Layin’ back in shyvansna, and really letting go
I focused my gaze up into to the third eye
That’s where I saw the psychedelic spiral for the first time
What I saw was love, that’s what the world is made of
And this society so quick to push and shove
Is nothing more than the the toxic product
Of an oppressive system in schism with the natural rhythm
You’re not special because you go to church
You’re not special because you’ve got your country’s flag on your shirt
You’re not special because your favorite team won
You’re special ‘cause you’re you, yo, no matter where you’re from

Can you hear me? I know you see me
No need to fear me, I just wanna be your friend
I know you hear me, so let’s make it easy
A handshake is clearly the best way for this to end
