Music/Words: FPS

lyrics

Dip from the well of deeper knowledge
and when you’re old you find you’re uncertain like me
Pick from the barrel of better apples,
or if you’re so inclined, pick the poisonous peach
Give us this day our daily breadcrumb,
the trail of which’ll lead to forgiveness & shrift
If you said one less word you’d be ashamed of yourself
You’d take your own horse’s mouth as your gift
They’ll sit you right down and tell you stories,
and mostly what you’ll find is unparalleled filth
The scriptures are sound and filled with glory,
but yours’ll not comply with their everyday tilth
The covenants sign themselves,
ignoring the promises that fill you with sadness & guilt
If you said one more thing you’d get a hold of yourself,
await your own pair of tracks to be built
Symptoms of amateur and aged condition
tell you why every smile is unseen
Set us a trap for alligators,
or if you’ll let me buy, crocodiles are on me
Accomplishment leads to your surrender,
horrendous ugly crimes you’ve yet to commit
Lawmen that billed you for your tender
send you back inside if you care to admit
Ways you could plead as their offender,
uncommon as a thief, just as tied to be fit
If you had one more place in which you keep to yourself
you’d get your own island lickety split
You tell us you won’t be out ‘til later,
then you wonder why you decided to leave
Simple analysis eludes you,
either that or mine is the type you don’t need
Sharpen your blades and battle axes
and when you hold 'em, find they're attractively built
