Testo Continuum At The Drive-In

Continuum

I'll drop a dime on you first
Lest the backside of my hand
Find you sleeping hand over fist
Soliciting headlines again
Groping the porcelain rim
Of a microfiche reader ransacking dawn
You'll try and pry yourself from
A quick grave in a sleuth's boneyard
But that paper trail
You've fawned over so much
Is just a dead language

Take your armor off
Play that executioners song
What's the matter now
Are your feet bitten by frost

I'll drop a dime on you first
Commotion sickness
With dramamine pills
Commute my sentence
To the 13th floor now
I'll drop a dime on you first
Placebo buttons maime
All the tattle tails
When the dosage
Doesn't seem to work now
I'll drop a dime on you first

You might just serve out
The rest of your life soaked in the deprivation of a faraday tank
Laughing your hyena fractures
Of false alarms
You've been party to subterfuge
Since Jesus was a corporal
It's just Scaffolding
With no building to demolish

Take your armor off
Play that executioner's song
What's the matter now
Are your feet bitten by frost

I'll drop a dime on you first
Commotion sickness
With dramamine pills
Commute my sentence
To the 13th floor now
I'll drop a dime on you first
Placebo buttons maime
All the tattle tails
When the dosage
Doesn't seem to work now
I'll drop a dime on you first

Fleet of foot
Beat the rising tide
Cinder block soles in the clear of my throat
Do you know what I found?
Do you know what I found?
Agitate the crowds
Let them coin the phrase
Found you hiding out in the alpha hotel now
Do you know what I found?

Orchards gas lit
And cover the footprints
All points bulletin
Load up your commissary
Fifth point
Of contact
The amateur noose is willing
Fifth point
Of contact
The amateur noose
CALLS
And when it calls
And there's always
A subpoena for the past
