And we're off again It comes out of nowhere Like a rope, wrapping tighter and tighter 'Round the throat I guess when it's on it's on I mean I guess I'm saying Probably happens to everyone And they all got a mean objective Or you could say Naw, thin to the thickening Every breath as an invitation A little louder now Like a feather to put in the cap You dance, get yer cocktail on Feels good Leaving everything as it is A shout from the back of the hall One time, two times The writing is on the wall The wall, the wall, the wall Back to it Looking out like it's preservation A little softer now What goes 'round comes around Stop Now consider this Stop making it all about your shit We all gotta deal One trip, make the most of it Just a little bit Stop making it about your shit We're all gonna be Six feet in the coldest ground Now we're blacking out Right then Turn around Go on and give it back You're dead meat In a chilling freeze You're an effigy And a wrapper in a plastic bag We're all dietys Washed up in a sewage leak Where was I? A flowered shrine A cussing bum A crystal shine In a pool of scum A dream so real That your vision's gone An animal A mineral A vegetable An abacus I'm an animal I'm a mineral I'm a vegetable I'm an abacus All right
