Bathwater Milkshake
[Verse 1]
Talk of the town went to the mixer and the bouncer looked him up and down
Bounced him out an mp3
How’s about the specialty?
Bathwater milkshake
Texture it with chicken grease
Plan a trip to Tennessee
Volunteering information
Freestyling sub-basement
Breeze by with nothing major
Kind of grimy like my old Chuck Taylors or the articles of muckrakers
Yellow journalism, yellow pages
Dust layers
Dust bunnies under king size mattress in a hillside mansion in the scope of a keen-eyed assassin blowing tree off the clock
Room of confidants, lip-reading through the Mark Chagall
[Chorus]
Some pretend like they don’t see it
Some pretend like they don’t know
Moon is sinking into smokescreen
Foggy everywhere the air knows
Some pretend like they don’t see it
Some pretend like they don’t know
Sun is coming out to start cleaning
Shadows everywhere the wind blows
[Verse 2]
Manhole cover slightly ajar
Sewer sludge footsteps back to the car
Tire marks peel off and head North
Meanwhile the stained glass is on the living room floor
Now take the train back to the South
Helicopter probably following a passenger out
Security got the footage and eyewitness accounts
Murky story gets murkier
Dirty, is it dark enough?
Parking lot lights flicker
Followed you
[Chorus]
Some pretend like they don’t see it
Some pretend like they don’t know
Moon is sinking into smokescreen
Foggy everywhere the air knows
Some pretend like they don’t see it
Some pretend like they don’t know
Sun is coming out to start cleaning
Shadows everywhere the wind blows
