It's important to give away your pieces |
| [00:16.081] |
In the detail surrounding your death |
| [00:21.093] |
There will always be a need for the pieces you are made of |
| [00:27.826] |
You may one day need a few pieces yourself |
| [00:32.079][Post-Chorus: Kimya Dawson] |
|
| [00:32.339] |
Jen stood at the finish line |
| [00:39.083] |
And waited for Dylan to cross |
| [00:44.332] |
Then she rested her head on the young boy's chest |
| [00:49.840] |
That held the heart of the little girl she'd lost |
| [00:54.076][Verse: Aesop Rock] |
|
| [00:56.575] |
Outside of the influential arms of your idolatries |
| [00:59.084] |
The object will be turning goodbyes into good biology |
| [01:01.824] |
There will be a DOA who has some parts that seem okay |
| [01:05.084] |
Coinciding with someone you know that needs a piece replaced |
| [01:07.833] |
And we will stand around the corpse, fishing in a well of ribs |
| [01:10.333] |
Treasure hunting just before they show you where the devil is |
| [01:13.331] |
Nobody is judging you to vilify the guilty |
| [01:15.840] |
I will cut and dry, be leaving with your kidney |
| [01:18.089][Chorus: Aesop Rock & Kimya Dawson] |
|
| [01:18.593] |
It's important to give away your pieces |

There will always be a need for the pieces you are made of |

You may one day need a few pieces yourself |

|
| [01:40.328] |
Turtle gave its shell to the |
| [01:44.830] |
Crab who gave its eyes to the |
| [01:46.577] |
Bird who gave its wings to the bat |
| [01:52.087] |
The bat gave its sonar to the |
| [01:55.580] |
Dolphin who gave its blowhole to the |
| [01:57.840] |
Whale who gave its tail to the cat |
| [02:03.330][Verse 2: Aesop Rock] |
|
| [02:03.580] |
Outside any biases or post mortem reliances |
| [02:06.836] |
A moment of silence that needs a poster-boy for science |
| [02:09.592] |
There will be a system which allows them to unzip your skin |
| [02:12.337] |
Cherry-picking innards from the synthesis they pickle in |
| [02:15.324] |
And someone that you never meet will wake on a convenient day |
| [02:18.082] |
Marvel in the lucky news, plug into your DNA |
| [02:20.825] |
And know the love inside a dying human's final gesture |
| [02:23.832] |
I will cut and dry, be leaving with your liver |
| [02:26.076][Chorus: Aesop Rock & Kimya Dawson] |
|
