Babylon By Bus

Babylon by bus, no tagalongs

It's a marathon, tryna run it up

Lake Michigan, a frozen pond

Black Swan with the bubble butt

Opera glasses clutched front my ugly mug

I administer the food and drugs

Monsoon love, oxytocin flood

Red mud ran out the hills like blood

Glistening waterbug on clean counter

Plague mask, gave the place a cursory glower

He ran away, I gave chase but gave up and sat on his gate for hours

Pissing in a bottle

Lampposts adorned with the missing

Listen, I'm not swimming in tomorrows

Parachute twisted and snarled

Just glad I kissed 'em

I knew the time was borrowed

(ShrapKnel)

Ayo, stiff swig of Blanton's to celebrate the New Wave

Hope our host ain't got himself a 12-gauge

Not Akata Lu Deng, playing devil's advocate, now who's game?

Handsome with my B-boy, Trugoy in the PJs

Cold open, slow to focus, cameras pan to a freeway

The ransom was a decoy, we P-noid, a heat wave

Red herring's nest in the Bible Belt

Cashier with a carbine, never can be too safe these days

Before Novitzki's blonde phase, mic hand caught a callus

Dallas overseas kick when Detlef was a Maverick

Mouth dry on that Southby road to Damascus

Better call Saul a cab, it's getting bad with traffic

Bumper Bumper Knight Rider, wish we had an Airwolf

Dickhead Logic somehow hacked into our Bluetooth

Move quick, bad news, Cru Thik

Constellation funk, bad moon as viewed through the roof tint

Caught 'em lacking on 9/11

I lie down like V.I. Lenin

People don't want the truth, they want me to tell 'em grandma went to Heaven

Rifle on the wall as an icebreaker

All the world's a stage, she came to me in full makeup

Anyone wanna be in my life gotta sign several waivers

Wires out the taser, suspicious fire in the galley of the freighter

What I do can't be copied

I take care of these words, Munchausen by proxy

Somehow beat the tox screen

God save the Queen, but that train doesn't stop here anymore
