Melt me like a Stretch Armstrong doll

I drown purple neon lights
kicking in a coffin
with American screams

stealing samples from  DJ's
quarrel quicksand got the best of me
you can have whats left
if there's liquor in the cabinets

i never heard dreams smother before
dinner on the coffee table
red light district

pull a fast one
on them honchos with the heroin
sneeze
then you stick it in the wrong vein and die

pull on the sweater
and you pick at the scars
car crash Christmas tree
who the fuck is keeping count

we drag the lake
but there ain't no bodies to be found
cut them drugs with the top shelf chemicals
we get a little rain
then they're walking around

snip
snip
the snowflake funk
drop a bass line
at the tattoo tree trunk

breath of a Javan Tiger
traps were set
turn the gun on the hunter
baby welcome to demise

woah ohh
drink the mercury and talk like the silver god
lick the back of a toad
and your heart beat never felt so good

graffiti on the Marlboro man
motorcycle maniac
slash slash slash
put the thriller rapist on the ground

you want the truth
but you're snapping bones with keep away
burning books from the ladder
we hide from another day
playing ring around the rosy in the dark










------------------------------------------------------
because fuck everything you thought you knew before this
i'll count with crawdads and open windows with bricks if i want to
