4:16All shovellers of earth making maneuvers with manure Move over and prove your love You should remove your gloves and galoshes, use caution Please no pushin' and shovin' unless you got a cushion Here's the solution to all of this noise pollution And fascination concerning fashion Let's start slashin' and burnin' Let's start teachin' a lesson or even preachin' a sermon To each of the people that's facin' termination Time's a-wastin' away on the initial inklings Officially it's no time for wishful thinking The Missin Link is back in action lookin' for satisfaction Actually I'm optimistic, I'm also acrobatic Addicted to contradiction, a victim of an overdose Livin' in a dollhouse, almost comatose Only the Holy Ghost is good enough to be my guest All of the rest of you slowpokes can eat my dust As we've discussed, you'll be given permission To wreck the percussion and the mic mechanism All prisoners and pioneers have risen And are cryin' tears and playin' with crayons And tryin' to stay on top all day non-stop And droppin' jewelry for hooligans And organ donors goin' to boarding school According to the gatekeeper and late sleepers Callin' all heavyweights and students This way to the future, follow along The secretive type, I like to creep in the night But I speak under my breath to be polite (I'm talkin' about you) Unconspicuous, keep killing that sweet feeling The mystique's building I only speak to the freakishly chic children For some cheap thrill thing I'll be willing To make purchases on my credit card As long as it's of discrete billing I am expected to get murdered by bombs So I open up my mailbox with surgical tongs Rubbing antibacterial paste on my virginal palms Then it gets a little less complex And Oedipus words from my moms Heard of the song by the guy, what's his face Who says those things, I love that song I think that it's called Ambiguity And the music be handed to you and me In the form of animal cruelty I'm heading to the laboratory to free some mice today Heading back to the lab to prove The skin color of Jesus Christ is grey Impressionable minds have nothing even nice to say Your brain is putty in my hands, my man It seems just like some clay See I'm strange, I'll take my time Rearrange your frame of mind You wanna be with Sage Wait in line with the rest of them grapevine swingin' idiots You ain't bustin' no grape and makin' wine You ain't duplicatin' my rhymin' I'm older and dirtier than that bastard baby Jesus is Masturbating penises in a alleyway where she just is Thinkin' that's enough and it is Asking, "Can I live?" Is the way these asinine kids imply that they are Dead already they are, get in your car Release the brakes, put it in neutral I'mma steer you wrong This way to the future, follow along
