Snake Charmer 2

Snake charmer, bringing to life
Like the candelabra, sing it tonight
Emerge from the dust, watching it rise
Celebrate the life and watch when it dies
Only to begin again
Ever change, still the same
Ocean tides throwing him off-course, still a game
Still in chains, freedom ring
Bells delayed, see him sing
Freedom song, only when he finds he doesn’t need a thing
Damn, shit is complicated
Hearts getting confiscated
Jorge, take a pill and chill
Never over-complicated
Laugh out hysterically
Kurious pedigree
Top dog, monkey man
Putting it down legibly
Come correct, spot check
All right, it better be
Lot of nerve -- don’t ever put them weak dudes next to me
Watch a few good souls refuse desperately
Never no agenda, services to render
Never no pretender, benefits to the sender
Gifts is in the giving
Riffs to make a living
Lesson learned on land that was stolen on Thanksgiving
New York’s a playground, shouts out to San Quentin
Bendi song with all due respect
Bendi song the bill collector-slash-Pied Piper-skill-perfector
Umbrella, expand, catch some shade
Under the real protector
Take a deep breath, feel the pressure
Ah, on the exhale, tap the next nail
Seal the coffin; hope they get paid real often
Maybe all is just a dream
Paint a sea, see struggle
Leaks out his whole heart
Feel his veins bleed puddles
Now he’s composed again
Chill like a frozen wind
? foes,? and so it begins
Forty days, forty nights traveling across the sand
Awake like a motherfucker, like he high off a gram
Wish it would rain, eyes peeled on the thermostat
Muy caliente, he could feel the burns on his back
Learned the facts journeying
Moving like a meteor
Him and King Geedorah
Like it’s the last beer call
