All that glitters is gold with no frills Post no bills, and the rigmarole is so ill And roadkill bake over BK blacktop Summer of tough lovin' for that decayed mascot To settle in a worm lunch lovely and vile Half never even got comfy in a style Fifteen pas(-senger) van ran around the country Lugging the heavy duffels of the hungry and proud Young, dumb, loud, and reppin' the locale Of whatever foul four-track nurtured the child And it works for a while when a stone cold serf Get a megaphone and perch in a crowd--wow First things first, to alert the aloud Free every worker immersed in denial Circle the now 'til its face turned purple And never ever once turn worship and bow Walk that fence Like a deer in headlights through a fish-eyed lens Hopped out the Ford for more folklore 'Til his cape got caught in the door one morn' Please don't tap the phone and go No lights on but the cat is home Catacomb kid cuddy with his calicos Try to coax thick money out the rabbit hole And it's a diary of savage folk with no future (No) no teacher taught him how to maneuver (No) no rules so we off of the blueprint With no regrets, and blame self for the bloopers Cooped up, keeping the quills dipped and busy With a little killer pill and no tolerance for the tipsy Whether it stinks a city, I'm opening up You sick of running on empty, come and soak in the smut Hey, you, ready on the left I was high with the winged, I was deep with the dead I was dragging a dagger through the dim city dregs With a blacksmith cough and a box of cassettes Hey, you, ready on the right I was air with the missiles, I was irked with the mights I was hopped up heading for the last of the lights With a sweaty upper lip on a midsummer's night Aesop Rock - Catch 22
I probably account for half the view count... I think this is my favorite Aesop Rock song every word is a dagger to my heart and that droning is from outer space....
One of the greatest underground hip hop songs of the 2000s
I think this song is the one that kills me... it blows me away every time...thankyou Aesop Rock & Grimace Federation
All that glitters is gold with no frills
Post no bills, and the rigmarole is so ill
And roadkill bake over BK blacktop
Summer of tough lovin' for that decayed mascot
To settle in a worm lunch lovely and vile
Half never even got comfy in a style
Fifteen pas(-senger) van ran around the country
Lugging the heavy duffels of the hungry and proud
Young, dumb, loud, and reppin' the locale
Of whatever foul four-track nurtured the child
And it works for a while when a stone cold serf
Get a megaphone and perch in a crowd--wow
First things first, to alert the aloud
Free every worker immersed in denial
Circle the now 'til its face turned purple
And never ever once turn worship and bow
Walk that fence
Like a deer in headlights through a fish-eyed lens
Hopped out the Ford for more folklore
'Til his cape got caught in the door one morn'
Please don't tap the phone and go
No lights on but the cat is home
Catacomb kid cuddy with his calicos
Try to coax thick money out the rabbit hole
And it's a diary of savage folk with no future
(No) no teacher taught him how to maneuver
(No) no rules so we off of the blueprint
With no regrets, and blame self for the bloopers
Cooped up, keeping the quills dipped and busy
With a little killer pill and no tolerance for the tipsy
Whether it stinks a city, I'm opening up
You sick of running on empty, come and soak in the smut
Hey, you, ready on the left
I was high with the winged, I was deep with the dead
I was dragging a dagger through the dim city dregs
With a blacksmith cough and a box of cassettes
Hey, you, ready on the right
I was air with the missiles, I was irked with the mights
I was hopped up heading for the last of the lights
With a sweaty upper lip on a midsummer's night
