| «Folks I know you’re all dying to know how long--
|
| I cannot answer that now. |
| We’re gonna have the maintenance technicians come over
|
| And take a look at it and uh once that’s done, then we’ll give you an estimate
|
| I’d say it’s probably at least uh 15 minutes or so.»
|
| It’s like all of Franklin Avenue now sleeps upon my chest (my chest)
|
| I’ve used cigarette butts and looseleaf to build my nest (build my nest)
|
| Did I mention I appreciate the way you treat your guests? |
| (guess not)
|
| But I’m not really convinced when you say that you’re impressed (hell no)
|
| The line between MC and comedian gets a little thinner (little thinner)
|
| Now it’s nothing but roughage for lunch and punchlines for dinner (feed me)
|
| I’ve tried to open the blinds to let in some sunshine
|
| Wound the watch 'til it broke all in hopes of stopping the time
|
| The key broke off in the ignition
|
| Hopping if I wandered off through my thoughts wishing
|
| Hoping this could be for you, but it is for me
|
| Patiently I stay busy, I wait, I see (X2)
|
| It’s the sure shot (X6)
|
| Zih Zih Zih Zih Zih
|
| See it’s simple (simple), it’s not that I want to make it ripple (ripple)
|
| But I feel I’m only being civil (civil)
|
| When I sit back and giggle like the rest as the rhythm manifests
|
| I’m stressed (stressed), but most of 'em would never guess (never guess)
|
| That I’m closing in upon the crest
|
| Why? |
| Cause I think it’d be best for who? |
| To hide the mess from who?
|
| It’s all true (it's all true), not good, but I know it’ll do (it'll do)
|
| Still trying to reach the kid in you
|
| So I may continue to find why this child proves so wild
|
| I smile (smile), tired, I walked a thousand miles (miles)
|
| Wired over the thoughts I’ve dialed (dialed)
|
| Inspired by the monsters, the files of life full of stars and stripes
|
| (Chorus End)
|
| If you wanna sleep with me and talk about existence
|
| We’ll need more than 15 minutes
|
| I’ll tell you what, let’s forget about the fame
|
| Push pause on the game and get to know each other by our real names
|
| If you wanna sleep with me and talk about existence
|
| We’ll need more than 15 minutes
|
| I’ll tell you what, let’s forget about the fame
|
| Push pause on the game and get to know each other by our first names
|
| If you wanna sit with me and talk about existence
|
| We’ll need more than 15 minutes
|
| I’ll tell you what, let’s forget about the fame
|
| Push pause on the game… What the fuck’s your name? |
