Hey Mr Ad Man lend me your being,
I wanna know what they wanna see,
So talk to me, lend me your ear, talk to me
O the idea I proffer is really a dream,
straight from the gods of the realest thing,
he comes to me in sleep every once-in-a-while,
gives me holy context with a cheshire smile.
I offer him to partner but he laughs like a joke,
always dissipating, only stops in smoke,
I use him like a camera try to remake the scene,
I wish that you could only see —
But he is fleeting.
He’s all beauty.
He is me.
Hey Mr. Ad Man, where do I go?
It seems like you’ve mapped the metaphysical.
Where is the castle? What is the church?
Why can’t I worship what I worshipped first?
O Mr Ad Man, where do I turn?
I’m not seeing nothing really left to learn
that offers me anything I haven’t learned yet.
All this feels so dragged along.
I am holy, but I’m wrong.
I’m just a song
If it’s all just appearance why’s it so hard to see
the eye's the only maker of immensity?
You’re telling me the flitter specter figure that invaded my brain
really is real,
And nothing changes, it’s all the same —
Nothing’s surreal and we’re insane
collective feathers on a living plane
flying to nowhere, whole and empty,
I’m a wraith,
like the sky,
in what’s the dream of the human race

I tractor beam, caught without a line
I was a chicken salad, cold as all of time
And you said to me, come back some time
There’s a storm brewing me — I’m fine
It’s a live Turkey
BB-gunning ‘round
I went to Harvard college just to catch a frown
From a man who said times on my side
I know what’s coming, know what’s on the way
I been all the way
to the end of sight
To the end of mind
And I know what’s
You’ll call back some time
I was live Turkey Thanksgiving Day
Last of my kind and the next ones on the way
From me
The next one’s from me
When’s this loop gon’ end I’m out of straights
