Strange Famous (spoken Word Rhyme On 90.3 Wriu) Lyrics - Sage Francis

Maybe you're never really living till you've understood what death is 

So I touched the human spirit with lyrics some say are breathless 

It's that breathlessness that inspired my tired hand 

To write these endless epilogues that some call pretentious 

Living verse existence surviving, verse thriving in an environment 

Vitamin supplements and a government's removal of pensions retirement 

Empty out your life savings cause your wife's handing that knife collection 

Could have used some type of protection but you sliced through her midsection 

Even though the sex was great you want belly thin 

Didn't want to ruin the love canal and that's why you went too serried 

And everyone's got your own opinion, ask your librarian about the alien 

Legal aliens, vegan terrorist and all of the vegetarian activists 

Male malchy and alchemists grab a fistful of calculus pals 

Who dissed over the lack of apple cum math-or-piss 

Build but calluses on the phalluses of Alice and Wonderland-scapers 

Put on your happy face, here comes the hand shakers with sand paper gloves 

They wanna jerk you off with, to further off quick 

Cause I prefer the soft lips of a whore's kiss 

I lick my wounds and force my tongue into the opening 

Communicating with infections that took residence when I broke my skin 

I've learned their language now my infectious speech gets sickening 

But my poetry has become a scab lies just can't help picking 

Tickling too many worldly fancies whimpering on my hands and knees 

Crawling fast through laundry mats pilfering girlie's panties 

Ya heard me? Man please 

I ain't take nothing without paying except for school books and blank tapes 

Throw in a can-a-pee from a canopy can a pee brain hit me in plain day 

Are we game though we came with weak aim
