On the brink of complying
I'm very slow
And I say to myself:
"Oh no, don't go
Well I like you the way you are
So please don't change
Don't you know that your mind could rearrange?"
So today it starts and tomorrow it ends
I lost my soul and I lost my friends
So today it ends and tomorrow it starts
The brooding of a million hearts
Music's the way, the only way I know
It's time to let the brooding heart
Choose the way to go
'Cause love is not the answer
It's never here to stay
What's here through the night
May be gone by day
On the brink of attack
I'm society prone
And they're telling me:
"You should find out what is wrong"
I think I'm alright
I'm still putting up a fight
But I keep on losing
Soon I'll be dying of fright
On the brink of insanity
I see my friend
And I'm trying to tell him:
"It can't be the end
Well, you've made me live
Now you've got more to give"
If he goes o'er that brink
Who will I cry with?
Because music's the way, the only way I know
It's time to let the brooding heart
Choose the way to go
'Cause love is not the answer
It's never here to stay
What's here through the night
May be gone by day
What's here through the night
May be gone by day

- Happy Rhodes, "Over and Under the Brink"

Met a 54 year old dustbin man
In '48 he'd been in Jerusalem
Sold surplus oil to Arab fighters
For M-cocktails to burn Jewish terrorists
What a turn-up!

I was kinda blown away by the lyric writing in this album on the first listen. It's a good example of what I think lyric writing should be more like. Just listen to it, it's a great album.

Who is this Geoffrey?
All I see is this cold cadaver
Why is this Geoffrey
lying in puddles of pus on a gurney?
Tell me of this Geoffrey,
this boy with a noose around his neck;
More about Geoffrey:
why is he wearing his mother's bra?

How old was Geoffrey?
At a guess, I'd say
about twelve or thirteen;
He died accidentally
from auto-erotic asphyxiation;
He'd been masturbating...
our little stiff still has one on
and it's been one week!

The resurrection men
took their sweet time
Cross-dressed fruit:
what a way to die!
Now he's ours:
the apple of our eye;

Fetch the dead sphincter:
cold green meat
How did his ass taste?
Tender and sweet...

And then we fucked it...

Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child’s balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying

Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fool’s gold mouthpiece the hollow horn
Plays wasted words, proves to warn
That he not busy being born is busy dying

Temptation’s page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel to moan but unlike before
You discover that you’d just be one more
Person crying

So don’t fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear
It’s alright, Ma, I’m only sighing

As some warn victory, some downfall
Private reasons great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to crawl
While others say don’t hate nothing at all
Except hatred

Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Make everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It’s easy to see without looking too far
That not much is really sacred

While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the president of the United States
Sometimes must have to stand naked

An’ though the rules of the road have been lodged
It’s only people’s games that you got to dodge
And it’s alright, Ma, I can make it

Advertising signs they con
You into thinking you’re the one
That can do what’s never been done
That can win what’s never been won
Meantime life outside goes on
All around you

You lose yourself, you reappear
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
Startles your sleeping ears to hear
That somebody thinks they really found you
>>
>>127858711
A question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know there is no answer fit
To satisfy, insure you not to quit
To keep it in your mind and not forget
That it is not he or she or them or it
That you belong to

Although the masters make the rules
For the wise men and the fools
I got nothing, Ma, to live up to

For them that must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Cultivate their flowers to be
Nothing more than something they invest in

While some on principles baptized
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs in drag disguise
Outsiders they can freely criticize
Tell nothing except who to idolize
And then say God bless him

While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society’s pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he’s in

But I mean no harm nor put fault
On anyone that lives in a vault
But it’s alright, Ma, if I can’t please him

Old lady judges watch people in pairs
Limited in sex, they dare
To push fake morals, insult and stare
While money doesn’t talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares
Propaganda, all is phony

While them that defend what they cannot see
With a killer’s pride, security
It blows the minds most bitterly
For them that think death’s honesty
Won’t fall upon them naturally
Life sometimes must get lonely

My eyes collide head-on with stuffed
Graveyards, false gods, I scuff
At pettiness which plays so rough
Walk upside-down inside handcuffs
Kick my legs to crash it off
Say okay, I have had enough
what else can you show me?

And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They’d probably put my head in a guillotine
But it’s alright, Ma, it’s life, and life only

Hey, that cunt's not breathing
I think she's had too much
Of something or other, hey, man, you know what I mean?
I don't mean to scare you
But you're the one who came here
And you're the one who's gotta take her when you leave
I'm not being smart
Or trying to be cold on my part
And I'm not gonna wear my heart on my sleeve
But you know people get all emotional
And sometimes, man, they just don't act rational you know
They think they're just on TV

Sha-la-la-la, man
Why don't you just slip her away

You know, I'm glad that we met man
It really was nice talking
And I really wish that there was a little more time to speak
But you know it could be a hassle
Trying to explain this all to a police officer
About how it was that your old lady got herself stiffed
And it's not like we could help
But there wasn't nothing no one could do
And if there was, man, you know I would have been the first
But when someone turns that blue
Well, it's a universal truth
And you just know that bitch will never fuck again
By the way, that's really some bad shit
That you came to our place with
But you ought to be more careful around the little girls
It's either the best or it's the worst
And since I don't have to choose
I guess I won't and I know this ain't no way to treat a guest
But why don't you grab your old lady by the feet
And just lay her out in the darkest street
And by morning, she's just another hit and run
You know, some people got no choice
And they can never find a voice
To talk with that they can even call their own
So the first thing that they see
That allows them the right to be
Why they follow it, you know, it's called bad luck
>>
>>127858086
We sailed away on a winter's day
With fate as malleable as clay
But ships are fallible, I say
And the nautical, like all things fades
And I can recall our caravel
A little wicker beetle shell
With four fine masts and lateen sails
Its bearings on Cair Paravel
Oh my love
Oh it was a funny little thing
To be
The ones
To've seen
The sight of bridges and balloons
Makes calm canaries irritable
And they caw and claw all afternoon
Catenaries and dirigibles
Brace and buoy the living room
A loom of metals warp woof wimble
And a thimbles worth of milky moon
Can touch hearts larger than a thimble
Oh my love
Oh it was a funny little thing
To be
The ones
To've seen
Oh my love
Oh it was a funny little thing
It was a funny funny little thing

PON TUS MANOS OTRA VEZ,

ENTRE LAS MÍAS;

VEN, Y DIME QUE ME AMAS;

PON TUS LABIOS COMO AYER,

JUNTO A MI OÍDO;

VEN, Y DIME QUE ME AMAS.


TODO LO QUE QUIERO SER

ES UNA GRAN DIANA,

PARA QUE PUEDAS PONER

TUS OJOS ESMERALDA

EN LOS MÍOS; CLÁVATE,

DAME TODO LO QUE ME FALTA.

Do you know

Is it love

Does it hurt
Deep inside

I suck his dick with a smile for hours at a time
Stare at his nutsack while I hold back my cum tonight
And when he ask me what position I say, "Doggystyle"
(And when they ask me what position I say, "Doggystyle")
But the fact is
I can never get off of his fat dick
And all that they can ask is (Ask is, ask is)
"I just wanna smack it" (I just wanna smack it)

Here's what the fact is
He can put my asshole in a casket (Yuh, yuh, yuh)
Asshole in a casket

So you can see I'm cummin'
But you won't see me nut
And I'll just keep on suckin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
And if he sucks my glizzy
I will become dizzy
But it keeps us busy, I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
I've been twerking for boys for so long
I've been flirting with boys for so long
My jaw's been hurting for so, so long it's real
So long, it's real, so long, it's real

Always bein' judged by a bunch of sexy faces
Stickin' up the guys, haven't seen a girl in ages
But I've been places
Kissin' guy's faces
Kissin' guy's faces
Kissin' guy's faces
But the fact is
Kissin' guys is all that I have practiced
Suckin' glizzies while I'm on my mattress
I just really wish that I could smack it (I just wanna smack it)

Here's what the fact is
He can put my asshole in a casket (Yuh, yuh, yuh)
Asshole in a casket

So you can see I'm cummin'
But you won't see me nut
And I'll just keep on suckin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
And if he sucks my glizzy
I will become dizzy
But it keeps us busy, I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
I've been twerking for boys for so long
I've been flirting with boys for so long
My jaw's been hurting for so, so long it's real
So long, it's real, so long, it's real

So long, it's real
So long, it's real
So long, it's real

And only when
The sun is ours
Didn't take long to find out
I'm a, I'm a husk
Made up of diamonds and stuff
I don't seem to bleed this time
This time
Hair slicked back to a black slick
The red river pulls me up to scratch an itch
On an anthracite field I am laid out
And a diamond drill takes my feet off
Hair slicked back to a black slick
The red river pulls me up to scratch an itch
On an anthracite field I am laid out
And a diamond drill takes my feet off

We're getting older, the world's getting colder
For the life of me I don't know the reason why
Maybe it's livin' making us give in
Hearts rolling in, taken back on the tide
We're balanced together, ocean upon the sky

>>127858086
You couldn't even show yourself out
You were so held up by your thoughts
Along the way we got divided
And I'm left showing you the door
You couldn't look me in the eyes
So I'll dim the lights
When you take me out on your side
We're standing out of sight
Believe me
I'm on your side
It took so long for me to speak up
It was the hardest thing to say
Taken right up to the entrance
At the last minute turned away
Just can't look you in the eyes
So let's dim the lights
Get a case out
Pack up your pride
It's over, we're out of time
Delete me
I'm on your side
For everything that could have been
At least we took the ride
There's no relief in bitterness
Might as well let it die
>>
>>127858086
A corrupted frenzy fell within the husk
The cracks in your shell won't shatter the frame
Fleeing The Lake with blinded aims
With a craven anchor cementing your place

We are infallible!
Seeking meaning
We are impermanent!
Fleeting thoughts of the world
We are incomplete!
Aglow in the After
The Body, the vessel
A construct we leave behind

Tear down the mountain
The flood of the self
Bends the will of the ocean
Carrying fate from falsehood
Grand Fabricator
The fear of a god feeds the
Comfort in knowing
I am the Architect

And there's no turning back!
Free me, from me!

Clouds float away like iron tools on the moon
All my time is in half-life
Memories over memories
Can I see more than I'm programmed to be?

Constellation of Orion
A picture with a past
A future so vast
A mnemonic game
On the arc of a journey

I report there once were cities
Open academies
Avenues and trees
Human law
Automatic oracles
Calendar, the years
Verbal hemispheres

Constellation of Orion
The repositioned light
The postatomic night
Informing me I'm near
The axis of feeling

Constellation of Orion

A future so vast
A mnemonic game
On the arc of a journey

Cold and damp

One, two, three
She's a real left-winger
'Cause she been down south
And held peasants in her arms
She said, "I could tell you stories that could make you cry"
"What about you?"
I said, "Me too"
"I could tell you a story that will make you cry"
And she sighed, "Ah"

I said, "I wanna be a singer like Lou Reed"
"I like Lou Reed," she said, sticking her tongue in my ear
"Let's go, let's sit, let's talk"
"Politics go so good with beer"
"And while we're at it, baby"
"Why don't you tell me one of your biggest fears?"
I said, "Losing my penis to a whore with disease"
"Just kidding," I said
"Losing my life to a whore with disease"
She said, "Excuse me, please?"
I said, "Losing my life to a whore with disease"
I said, "Please..."
"I'm a humble guy with healthy desire"
"Don't give me no shit, because—"
I've been tired

I tell a tale of a girl, but I call her a woman
She's a little bit older than me
Strong legs, strong face, voice like milk
Breasts like a cluster of grapes
I can't escape her ways
She raised me
She'll make you feel like Solomon
Beware your babies even if you have no one

And while we're at it, baby
Why don't you tell me one of your biggest fears?
You don't want to sleep after setting my loins on fire
But that's okay, because—
I've been tired

Six seconds in your company makes me feel upset
That I've only known you for six seconds yet
Every minute we haven't spent together
All of the hours we are going to
Will come marching towards me in swathes
Hey, ah, there you are play the piano in this next bar
With a blow of an eastern breeze
On a flag of your face unfurled
I collide with you in this heat
Under blanket of borrowed blue
Splitting silence with every smile
Even ammonites hear us sing
And a rail on an outside road
Rusting over with us in here
We shall settle a stack of woes
With affectionate angled arms
Will you lead me across this room
As we knock other couples pell-mell?
Promenade to a sweet discord
In a London before the flood
To another an early fade
Nine behind us and three in front

Another huge favorite:

Fall is here, hear the yell
Back to school, ring the bell
Brand new shoes, walking blues
Climb the fence, books and pens
I can tell that we're going to be friends
I can tell that we're going to be friends

Walk with me, Susie Lee
Through the park and by the tree
We will rest upon the ground
And look at all the bugs we found
Safely walk to school without a sound
Safely walk to school without a sound

Here we are, no one else
We walked to school all by ourselves
There's dirt on our uniforms
From chasing all the ants and worms
We clean up and now it's time to learn
We clean up and now it's time to learn

Numbers, letters, learn to spell
Nouns and books and show and tell
At playtime we will throw the ball
Back to class, through the hall
Teacher marks our height against the wall
Teacher marks our height against the wall

We don't notice any time pass
We don't notice anything
We sit side by side in every class
Teacher thinks that I sound funny
But she likes the way you sing

Tonight I'll dream while I'm in bed
When silly thoughts go through my head
About the bugs and alphbet
And when I wake tommorow I'll bet
That you and I will walk together again
I can tell that we're going to be friends
I can tell that we're going to be friends

But there are lots of fish left in the sea
There are lots of fish in business suits

I had an early death

Calling all comas
Prisoner on the loose; description
The spitting image of me
Except for the heart-shaped hole where the hope runs out

Shock me awake and tear me apart
Pinned like a note in a hospital gown
Prisoner of sleep, deeper down
The rabbit hole, never to be found
Again, mmm-ah
(Ah-ah-ah)

Where are you hiding, my love?
Cast off like a stone; feelings
Raw and exposed when I'm out of control
Pieces were stolen from me
Or dare I say, given away
Watching the water give in as I go down the drain
I appear missing now

I go missing, no longer exist
One day, I hope I'm someone you'd miss

Shock me awake, tear me apart
Pinned like a note in a hospital gown
Deeper asleep, further down
The rabbit hole, never to be found

It's only fallin' in love because you hit the ground

Dancin' on wire, both ends are on fire
Cut me loose
Nowhere to run, no more room to pretend
Wandering along the road in the summer night

I go missing, no longer exist
One day, I hope I'm someone you'd miss

Shock me awake, tear me apart
Pinned like a note in a hospital gown
The deeper asleep, the further down
The rabbit hole never to be found

(Confide) With my toes on the edge, it's such a lovely view
(Don't cry) I never loved anything until I loved you
(Inside) I'm over the edge, what can I do?
(But shine) I haven't a thing unless I have you
(Confide) With my toes on the edge, it's such a lovely view
(Don't cry) I never loved anything until I loved you
(Inside) I'm over the edge, what can I do?
(But shine) I've fallen through

They say people in your life are seasons
And anything that happen is for a reason
And niggas gun clapping and keep to squeezing
And Gran' keep praying and keep believing
In Jesus, and one day that you see him
'Til then, walk in his footsteps and try to be him
The devil is alive, I feel him breathin'

Claiming money is the key, so keep on dreamin'
And put them lottery tickets just to tease us
My Aunt Pam can't put them cigarettes down
So now my little cousin smokin' them cigarettes now
His job try to claim that he too niggerish now
Is it 'cause his skin blacker than licorice now?
I can't figure it out, I'm sick of it now
