Star Sign 02:30
Out from my mother’s legs on a hot summer day Came a creature or machine built to work a certain way Where I drive, what I eat, who I want to meet The heart has a reason but the reason can’t speak My gene pool, my star sign, my nature, my skeleton size It’s all miiine, you can’t hate me for my de-siiiign Upset yourself gettin upset with me If you love me, Set me free he he heeee Woah yay ee yay hey hey hey Oh Set me free he he heee Woah yay ee yay hey hey hey Just set me down, don’t obsess when I’m around It ain’t about your inches and it ain’t about your pounds If I was a tree would ya ix-pect me To be a good man, jump into an industry? Nah, you’d breath me in, chop me down, climb me up or go around Rank me in your phylum, tell the world what you found You’re so looooud And you’re moving from town to towwnn Always eating always hungry If you love me Set me free

I am hanging by two arms from the edge of a building but it won't be too long before I make some friends with the birds up there mid day sun above my head sparkles on the side walk and the people down below they're lookin' like the worker ants they are feet tap in rhythm swingin arms and legs men and women going someplace

Nature’s mysteries can not be contained Might sound simple, but I’ll say it again I see a rock at the top of a hill, Looks like it might be a nice place to chill Git there, find that they’ve painted a sign “not to climb” Y’know what that means to me? Punk marin kid, get off my land Release the hounds, that’s my plan Here is something you can’t understand Field’s mine, read the sign, I’m a wealthy man You’ll Build on the top of my favorite hills Take to the lake, turn it into a landfill With 99 houses, and 99 yards, I might gather up 99 sig-na-chars Honestly, you astonish me, I admonish thee Peck with a picket, why’d you pick me? Locke made laws about stuff like this Liberty, Property, (kid) Check the List Sorry sir, if that’s how you feel I don’t steal, I walk fields and keep it real Real annoying, you’re enjoying All the fruits of my labor You’re like Darth Vader with a verbal light saber Nice one kid, you make me laugh Can I hang for a minute then, and puff my stash? Remind me how it goes , is it puff puff pass? Yeah sum’n like that, lemme take you back Wow, been a minute since I felt like this Drains the brain fills the veins with mist Let us take a walk to the rock have a sit A change of perspective with just one hit I'm climb, I'm fine, my minds design In time unwind my mangled spine This earth, this place, these rules this pain Never wanna climb through these locks again So far so fine bring a pad write lines not a list but a rhyme blue sky clear mind Rewind to genesis big bang scene one? I like how you're talkin Talkin heavy like a ton Forgive me this trespass, thanks for the hang Don't stress feel free to hop the fence again Some mysteries just can't be contained It might sound simple but I'll say it again Nature's Mysteries cannot be contained, Might sound simple but I'll say it again

You’re gonna like me , girl don’t fight me Once, I used to hide my true feelings Like a red hot poker layin under my tongue Blind to the signs they coulda shown me Talking bout the reasons why it couldn’t be done Stronger than a drum, my heart was deaf blind and dumb There was a song to be sung, but the harp wasn’t strung Oh, But like a brick through glass Broke it down, got me open, cuttin deep like an axe How could it be, that I was so cold? Deep inside frozen was a heart made of gold Once you got me goin there ain’t no goin’ back I don’t know how to ask let me tell you where it’s at You’re gonna like me , girl don’t fight me Once we get to talkin bout the way that we feel Never no pretendin cause we’re keeping it real Now that you know just how I’m feelin Bring your lovin here and don’t chu hold it too tight Staring up together at the ceilin Knock each other down, feelin way outta sight Girl we struck a match, and now I’m burnin inside We can find a way to burn it all through the night You’re gonna like me , girl don’t fight me Once we get to talkin bout the way that we feel Never no pretendin cause we’re keeping it real You’re gonna like me, you’re the only one excites me Time we do the things that come from deep in the heart Never no regrets, do it right from the start Right from the start
