We'll have more news after this commercial word'

(As so it goes..)

'At least I think I

was here asleep...

Is it possible, conceiveable that I sleepwalked out of my apartment

And

went berzerk?'

In slipped rhythm

Fed a cycle bound by dilemma-debting vendetta

Escaped

briefly back to my apartment

Parked in front the fan

And reminesce about the day I ran a mile

with your heart in my hand

'Tesants get the New York home game

With real life shoot-em-up

action

Thug, vagrant, yuppie, and art

Free game piece all included

I told this cat the earth

was flat

He walked till his beard grew long enough to strangle himself for being stupid

Brick-a-back

novelty

Spliced with that sixth pack odyssey

Godspeed Tequilla worm future, be concerned

My

feelings spread across the land reporting avalanche sightings

While my introverted side

is flying cadavers on kite strings

I'ma never give, I'm juiced off ejection

I'm stubborn

as a thousand born agains avoiding questions

From the alpha to the sand

I bake the date up

for my pledge

To 'bay the traitor in the twice-forgotten favors that he bled

Not a creature

stirred, it reaks of subway metal

Feather lecture journalist chin on fish shenanigans

Recording

mayhem with voices

Benefit to break room

Mummified manequins with future cleanse adamant

And

skeleton in cabinet

This a Malcom circus, got a ring of fire

Just big enough to shove my purpose

in a circle

I'm known to dip dusk in a broken city curfew

Release the hounds and see which one

can tractor trail and serve you SUCKA!

I lay the Lord down upon its belly

With my foot dug in

between the third and fourth disk

Yelling 'Break yo'self!'

I'm the actualized data commission

past penny tip jar donation

Been arranged, made by the farfetch from stability

Took a heart

pledge early on

Bled onto the drum doser

Plow in the metronome, home

Lone caddy corner to

cock-eyed sound booster

Sensation'll leave siesomgraph stabbin away on stone tablets

To

sketch up out your future

I drifted out the main spelunking unit with watered down sand

But

have canceled developed, courtesy America

Land of the free base

Home of the triplicate

grill character

My sorta sideways tilt called pinball blinker

It citizens wander through

ex-warrants steady bleed

With dilapadated winter jacket

I rock a crooked lid piece

A sweat

a bit to make my Wookie ends meet

Pascifist willing to step into a friend's beef if needed

Wing

clipper, I hierarch compassionate

Where they whine on some 'Daddy's gonna kill Ralphy'

shit

Sucked the proverbial silver spoon to the parents quit apparently

Parasol spinnin

casually like 'I'm an artist, please don't laugh at me'

Ok, time to buckle the f**k down

Side

of the wobbly system back to original form, pumpkin

You can catch the memoir in several dimensions

The

joy of life logic, don't employ the spite process

Hence, your plight botches

'I don't know

what got into me

I didn't even cause all that destruction

I'm sorry...so sorry'

[Chorus]

4x

This be the big

F-L-A-S-H-F-L-O-O-D, Flashflood

'Possible' 'Conceivable'

'Possible'

'Conceivable'

'Possible' 'Conceivable'

'Possible' 'Conceivable'

'Possible' 'Conceivable'

'Possible'

'Conceivable'

'That I sleepwalked out of my apartment and went berzerk?'
