The Keys To Life vs. 15 Minutes Of Fame |
«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? |
