Escalator |
| As I was climbing on the stairs |
| The stairs climbed me all unawares |
| When language stops dividing me |
| The horse I ride is riding me |
| And now my house is living in me |
| And now my food is eating me |
| Your language is mistaking me |
| But I’m so woke it’s waking me |
| And now my confusion is a kind of clarity |
| I won’t let your languaging get the better of me |
| There goes the fool on top of it all |
| Later he’ll befall a fall |
| Clever people stay down low |
| Where there’s no place lower to go |
| As I was climbing on the stairs |
| The stairs climbed me all unawares |
| The jokes you make keep laughing at me |
| The things you break keep breaking me |
| Structures all around us have their uses all implied |
| But I won’t let that escalator take me for a ride |
| The things I own are owning me |
| And now this song is singing me |
| Why, when no-one's making me |
| Something is mistaking me |
| And now my confusion is a kind of clarity |
| But I won’t let that escalator escalate me |
| Structures all around us have their uses all implied |
| But I won’t let your languaging take me for a ride |
