Song | Shovel |
Artist | Aesop Rock |
Album | Labor Days |
I don’t shrug instead of the ramifications of my shovel | |
Lovin the consequence of uprooting the jungle | |
I’m huggin the cyclo | |
Gemini stooped contenders from viewin the puzzle | |
I don’t budge the motives encased inside the gauntlets hung in quotas | |
X2 My kitchen sink leaks like your itching to speak a secret ‘bout the world spins yet nobody’s pledged allegiance and why? | |
His beaming smile knew a private agony that burns | |
And when the children met divinity | |
I sat to watch the merge | |
It goes pandemonium live | |
Ya’ll mutha ****ers stand up volunteer tantrums while your playin summin vivid | |
Play your sympathy card till the misery clash | |
And a basket case is in a classless matrix with elastic stitches | |
Raggin a bag of lonely poem remnants | |
Short of breath like you’re short of fresh | |
You’re a portable mess | |
Carpetbagger spearheading tear peddeling pretentious art critics, orphans | |
Trying to dismiss those pioneering their fortunes | |
You’re a spectacle | |
Pushin for pedagogue lacin up paper weights walkin on stilts talking | |
You touched the hand of | |
God and I’m like | |
What are all these evils that plagued the hearts of man by sweet talking border patrol until they fold and let them in | |
You got your life in a basket before you could say instant classic | |
Like the king of the mountain requires a boost | |
I’ll bury the hook in my belly just to volunteer at live aid clinics | |
For the thrill of 9 great mimics with 18 bloody lips, spittin | |
Beanstalk, chalking outlines before figures fly | |
Walking uphill trying to get down | |
Prominent ghost town litigate battle pitch darkness when the light switch hits the *artistry* circuit board breaker | |
Service in the greater half of nature | |
See money go wild shook when the exploitation incubated lovely | |
Warmingly *piggy leader* colony to comfort | |
Numb enough to deny the sin pins and evil needles even punctured | |
Till he wont define his | |
TOURNIQUET | |
STILL FUNC | |
TIONS I don’t shrug instead of the ramifications of my shovel | |
Lovin the consequence of uprooting the jungle | |
I’m huggin the cyclo | |
Gemini stooped contenders from viewin the puzzle | |
I don’t budge the motives encased inside the gauntlets hung in quotas | |
X2 Burn burn em mostly | |
Stuck unplucking plumage out the poultry | |
Soaking in bulk on a sofa with ductape upholstery | |
Dirty doc stellar space medic | |
Stoned by the commoners for glowing | |
Psuedo bloaters * buy them beats till bloated* | |
Happy trail hitchhikers guide to spanning oblivion | |
Complete with a thankless 9-5 chapter | |
You can sign your life after the facts | |
Wicked soldiers pickin with buddy system logistic motors like | |
Noah’s ark ticket holders, pivot | |
All in a days breath | |
I guess Sandman hit up or shatter a day when television run over baboon heart transplants | |
Sketching a glass partially empty till their hand cramps | |
With a iceman dance (?) and stand with a (?) | |
But maybe | |
I do Yeah yeah maybe it’s all over, maybe | |
I won the game before the machine ate my quarter | |
I mean absorbing attention's a must | |
You don’t wanna be overlooked | |
Yeah but you don’t wanna be looked over too much | |
One up for the dashed hopes of fifty fishermen who crashed boats and the angels who never hit bad notes when harmonising | |
I’m an armour plated farmer | |
I’m an archer rising with a drawn bow for the karma where the bulls eye clings and argues | |
Dense, spreads like new names at the writers bench | |
Either you drink it or sink it, coz there ain’t no sitting on the fence | |
You make me chuckle child, it’s hells kitchen now, miss | |
Recognize your life is merely bait for bigger fish | |
I don’t shrug instead of the ramifications of my shovel | |
Lovin the consequence of uprooting the jungle | |
I’m huggin the cyclo | |
Gemini stooped contenders from viewin the puzzle | |
I don’t budge the motives encased inside the gauntlets hung in quotas | |
X4 Encased inside the gauntlets hung in quotas | |
