Speak to me in succinct song lyrics

He’s a poet, oh, he’s a picker, he’s a prophet, he’s a pusher
He’s a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he’s stoned
He’s a walkin’ contradiction, partly truth, partly fiction
Takin’ ev’ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home

This is my brain
And I live in it
It’s made of love and bad song lyrics
It’s tucked away behind my eyes
Where all my screwed-up thoughts can hide
'Cuz God forbid I hurt somebody
And the weirdest thing about a mind
Is that every answer that you find
Is the basis of a brand-new cliche
This is my brain, and it’s fine
It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time
It’s not perfect, but it’s mine
It’s not perfect, but it’s mine

Ohh, making my mind slow
That’s why I don’t fuck with the big 4-O
Bro, I got to maintain
Cause a nigga like me is going insane

Insane in da membrane - Insane in the brain!
Insane in da membrane - Insane in the brain!

Ever since you told me that you loved me,
I’m a nut, I’m a nut!
Ever since you said those words, sweetheart,
I’m a bug, I’m a bug!

Sometimes you feel like a nut.
Sometimes you don’t.
Almond Joy’s got nuts!
Mounds don’t!

Gimme a break,
Gimme a break,
Break me off a piece o’ that

Pragmatical cats, fanatical cats

Now she’s a cool, cool black
Moves like a cat
If you don’t get her game
You might not make it back

Off-topic: Did you have that memorized? :eek:

On-topic:

So many have paid to see
What, you think you can get it for free?
The woman is wild, a she-cat tamed
By the purr of a jaguar
Money’s the matter
If you’re in it for love, you ain’t gonna get too far

Say goodnight
She waits for me to
Put out the light
Lay there still
She waits to break my will

Yes, if I know the truth about you…
She-cat…

There’s a she wolf in the closet,
Open up and set her free (ahoo)
There’s a she wolf in the closet,
Let it out so it can breath

On topic:
Owoooooooo!
Who’s that I see walkin’ in these woods?
Why, it’s Little Red Riding Hood.
Hey there Little Red Riding Hood,
You sure are looking good.
You’re everything a big bad wolf could want.
Listen to me.

Only so many times
I can say I long for you
The lily among the thorns
The prey among the wolves

Someday, I will feed a snake
Drink her venom, stay awake
With time all pain will fade
Through your memory I will wade

I’m not the one who’s so far away
When I feel the snakebite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again
And I don’t remember why I came

Please come to LA
She just said “No - boy, won’t you come home to me?”

And she said, “Hey ramblin’ boy why don’t cha settle down?”
“LA can’t be your kinda town”
“There ain’t no gold and there ain’t nobody like me”
“No, no, I’m the number one fan of the man from Tennessee”

Oh, I’m the type of guy
Who likes to roam around
I’m never in one place
I roam from town to town

And when I find myself
Falling for some girl
I hop back in my car and I…
Travel 'round the world

Never heard the whistle of a southbound freight,
Or the singing of it’s driving wheel,
No I, never did not wanderin’
Never did not wanderin’
Never did not wanderin’ after all.

Drown into my eyes and see the wanderer
See the mirrors of a wolf behold the pathfinder

The path is clear
Though no eyes can see
The course laid down long before
And so with gods and men
The sheep remain inside their pen
Though many times they’ve seen the way to leave

Gods will be Gods
But my Lord forgot
I was made out of skin
Bones will be bones
But when I came home
There was no one in
