about

A psychedelic diatribe.

lyrics

Mr. Anxious thanks us for servicing his lips
I think we thanked him just a bit too much
You got some on your chin
My throat's a nauseous faucet with slow and steady drips
I think a knot is in my stomach
Come get yourself a heavy whiff

Roger the engineer

I'm freezing and I'm cold
Sometimes it seems like no one knows
What's going on
Hey, what's going on?
I really want to know
But then again I don't
You know I like it in a box
This paradox of chicken pox
Acute chaos no absolute control

When I let you go
I won't let you go

Lord can't take much more of this from me
There's beauty in religion that I'm starting to see
Lord can't much more of this from me
I'm startled by the vision I am moved by degrees

Oh my god I was freaking out
I was freaking out
