lyrics

i am the one who knocks.
i was good, i was alive. blue baby blue, they all knew you. crystal cooked out of the white. i beat cancer, a working flip in metal order, barrels of millions. please give it all to my kids.

the learn'd astronomer is falling down down down. my brother found the truth and it shot him out.

i choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke. i was there, i watched her choke. on a holler of freedom, he drives a new sun as all desert secrets unfold. i teach teach teach teach teach teach teach teach teach teach teach teach. i was a teacher, i was a joke. bodies burn bath tubs, don't tell my son of any and all crimes i wrote 'cause i did.

i've heard the road to freedom is a long slow death. we used to be a family. the exile leaves his hat on the kitchen floor. before i go you'll all know why and what for.

[here is where things become very unclear. it is either often aaabrrrrrrrrroooopp! the tree appears to be lit from the inside. since i no longer think of reality as reality, what reason do i have to think of dreams as dreams? which is wickeder? when i sip your boils, do you retract like the doe's enrosarized pupil? things are gonna be different from now on. who are the rabbled and who are the ruled? having rescued a quantity of fresh water, my experience was finding you thirsty and just dead. i'm not referring to how to insult one's host at a dinner party. i'm referring to that special moment when a creative flowering seems to issue forth from the social nexus. if i no longer think of reality as reality, what reason do i have to think of dreams as dreams?]

i am the one who knocks knocks knocks.

[he stood just beyond an unfixed horizon, and she felt that if she strained her talents to an unexpected intensity, she might see him. he was there, a constant assault on her awareness. fierce, dangerous, immoral.]

"...a leg from jazz, a belly from prog rock, a hand from pop, a punk forearm."
