Lyrics Spider Heard - Guerilla Toss

Spider Heard

At the traffic light was a figurine
Rough around the edge, solid evergreen
Leaning to the side, holding up an arc
Facing straight ahead, blank without a spark
It shifts and twists, and suddenly practically gives in
But standing next to him, similar molding
Was a plastic twin, replica phantom
«Ready warrior?»
Stuck inside it’s head
«You need discipline!»
Soldier on a thread
Not a doll, a polymer popular play thing
No make believe, no luxury, rubbery repeat
Locked in one hand, I deal in the other
Two positions on the same subject
Look sideways and see that silicone study
Is that what you need?
That muted body?
It shifts and twists, and suddenly practically gives in
Oh ragged little doll, made of porcelain
Posable and small, breakable and thin
Spider heard her talk, tied a webber’s knot
Who is in the lead, what is at the top
Not a doll, a polymer popular play thing
No make believe, no luxury, rubbery repeat
He said:
The channel changes by itself (la la la)
The TV’s blaring at me (la la la)
Said it’s making a copy (la la la)
A robot flick at mother earth but
The wire isn’t connected (la la la)
An imitation you see (la la la)
A parody of the real life, (la la la)
And it just isn’t, isn’t me
I saw a pattern in the impression of the face
That wrinkly complexion never looked the same
Split between two things: conscious, balancing
That subtle mental link.
Carbon copy me!
It shifts and twists, and suddenly practically gives in
But waiting in the room, somewhere way outback
Banging with his spoon, standing on his head
Insect wannabe, ground itself to thin
With certain guarantee, horse became human
Not a doll, a polymer popular play thing
No make believe, no luxury, rubbery repeat
The channel changes by itself (la la la)
The TV’s blaring at me (la la la)
Said it’s making a copy (la la la)
A robot flick at mother earth but
The wire isn’t connected (la la la)
An imitation you see (la la la)
A parody of the real life, (la la la)
And it just isn’t, isn’t me
