Drugstore & the Kiss
What is it your looking at?
You want me to sign your poster?
The King Cobra, don’t get so close
I protect the rhyme
Sliver down the tree to give you another piece
Of another apple of my eye
You ought to start taking notes to write a biography
And this is what the people should all read
Remember you’re my Drugstore
And the Kiss started the feeling in it
Drugstore & the Kiss started the spinning in it
Drugstore & the Kiss started feeling in it
What did I say?
It is no secret that I get the next appointment
Coast to coast freedom, it’s not free though
It’s time to philosophize, but compare the notes
And you recognize your home now
You represent my medicine personified
And now I’m going to take my dose
Remember you’re my Drugstore
And the Kiss started the feeling in it
Drugstore & the Kiss started the spinning in it
Drugstore & the Kiss started feeling in it
What did I say?

Keeping You Quiet

Keeping You Quiet
Go get the shotgun
Look out the window
No sympathy, so prepare to pay
Tie up the witness
Take out the problem
Visit the morgue by the end of the day, so you’ll know
Several against this
Check off the wish list
Paint like Picasso with blood and brain
I said I’ll take another form when the time is right
I don’t deny it, I don’t deny it
I’ll delegate the Legion to set your plight
Please don’t deny it, Please don’t deny it
Decorate the ground with a body just to keep you quiet
Celebrate the cash devil with the very best of mind control
Decorate the ground with a body just to keep you quiet
With the very best of control
Follow the fortune, to get the payload
Tie up the broad before she gets away
This is the business, no room for feeling
Heart’s going to beat double-time today
So you’ll know
Stick it in the closet
Pull out the buckshot
I recommend the force, put it on display
I’m going to spin it like the truth, so that you can’t find it
It don’t deny it, I don’t deny it
I’m going to hang it like a noose, so that you can try it
Please don’t deny it, please don’t deny it

Your Turn to Play

Your turn to play
Your turn to play
Treat it with the full shot
You got the fever
You go the mile
Look in the mirror
Ticket for the bistro
Choke on the yayo
Put it on the stove top
Wait for the payroll
Invented by the culture
Keep for the keeper
Take it to the talk show
Play it for the people
Open the desk drawer
Find it in the desert
Beside the tempter
With the cigarette
Your turn to play
Your turn to play
Walk into a restaurant
Sit by the kitchen
Order me a lover
Order me a killer
Knock on the back door
At the resurrection
Look at the time
Don’t miss your connection

Pop-Ups
Inside of my body, I’m always reminded by these
Inside of my body, they’re entangled in complete piece
Tonight in my body I feel like the sound of my blood is telling me
Inside of my body, there is something turning the key
Pop-pop-pop-up-up, Pop-pop-pop-up-up, Pop-pop-pop-up-ups
The chemical imbalance produce design to see
An image created by you, but destroyed by me
The chemical imbalance produce design of great duplicity
While inside my body I’m on trial for harmony
Pop-pop-pop-up-up, Pop-pop-pop-up-up, Pop-pop-pop-up-ups

Luggage of Demons

I orchestrate the masterpiece, the co-conductor
Big thrillo, fictitious acquittal
Send me the capital all or nothing to retrieve
I’ve got an umbrella when it does not rain
It’s no rehearsal, jumbo case of genius
It’s a monstrosity, a formulation
You could say
It’s like a secret you’re trying to keep, but while you’re screaming
Nobody can hear you, so believe it
Let’s co-conspire
Force unknown, travel with luggage of demons
It’s easy to see, it’s like your bleeding
Without a release, admit you need it
Open your eyes
Force unknown, travel with luggage of demons
Dispatch me to the controller
Pick the fleet up
Layover, deconstruct the weakness
The problem is human need
Kill the problem, spread the seed
You’re going to get muscle when you feel the power
You’ll bruise your brain, and king the coward
It’s a passport for the daytime dreamer
Please the court and tell me that, It’s like a secret…
Yes we all will travel in time

The Rocking Horse Man

They’ve got green in their pocketbooks
And blood in their eyes
There’s no way you can see them
In their disguise
But they will hide from you anyway
Because they’re like that
They don’t want you to realize
When they attack
But they’ll say to you, what they said to me
We’ve got things for your nose
Swing from trapeze like
Oh, I know what you really do need
You need a million dollars
And brand new clothes
Eleven new cars and
A brand new home
You have to construct baby
And tear that down
Better open your mind
Then open your mouth to the world
Go now and spread the disease
While you worship the deity of which you please
For good luck – this is a divine machine
The second time around was the notion of feeling defeat
They’re like, Oh I believe you but Oh I’ve deceived you
You don’t have to know my name to get stuck in the middle
You just have to act right baby and turn it around
Take a pill to get up and a pill to get down
Oh, you don’t have to feel guilty
There’s an ocean to swim and a big world to see
Come on, this is a divine machine

It’s easy to find a haystack of needles
So open thine eyes and evaluate the torture
So you can menu the knowledge and get you a plate
You have to swing hard at the piñata
Don’t stop with the cantata
Ooh La-la-la, La-la-la-la
You have to move with the pawn and the bishop and queen
And then the knight
I’m already in your outside thoughts
Big dealer what are you going to believe?
Go get it and then we’re going to watch it deceive you
Free your mind, Free your mind, Free your mind
You plug into the Sophia of the modem
Then act surprised when they’re showing up with desire
Freeze for picture, so they can get you
A triple kind of double
Depending on the type of the disciple designed
A paralytic healing for style will help you
Move with the queen and the bishop and king
And then the knight
