Ornette's Swan Song Lyrics

Let me get out my rap display attaché case
Huh, [?] your backpack where landscape takes shapes
Romantically placed riverbeds and copper heads
Cocker Spaniel companion, blooms, canyon, lakes
There's no sky, just a colorful cry
Yellowjackets and hummingbirds
Praying mantis country
Down yonder is a plum tree
Scrumptious summer dreams
Makes me feel like...
Burning jasper, don't ask me why
Just ask me why not
Apricot-cantalopue preserves
Serving spoon delight
Birds steady flapping their wings in a magnificent renaissance of flight
The recipient Ornette's swan song goes to the lazy dog on the lawn under the weeping willow tree
He occasionally yawns
Not the least bit curious on how he got here
Snow caps blanketing [?] coniferous Cape Fear
Reminds me how something my grandmother once wore while crocheting
I'm just saying, this is my junk drawer
Bills and paystubs, erasers
Broken pencils, a yellow crayon, staples
Varied miscellaneous papers, a nine-volt battery
Calorie charts, varied random family photos, menus
The nearest neighbourhood sandwich shop
Togo's, on that [?]
Back with-with, I'll take your breath away so you're unable to make a wish
You're unable to make a wish

Power kept me swaddled like an infant
Emerging from the plume of carpet bombing
With only carpal tunnel
Dealing with day-to-day inertia in a marble tunnel
Moratorium has a place, euphoria as a pace, so I pick it up
Too old to be ashamed of my proclivities, eyes shifty
Double-sided like that Wassily Kandinsky
"Decisions" say the source
Imitating freedom I learned from a pigeon on my porch
Method acting is record making
In America, all zebras are in the zoo
And it's normal, and it's fine, it will never make the news
Your captivity will never make the news
Suddenly conscious of the speed of my windshield wipers
Before angry let's be truthful
I pause, "yo, this pain could be useful"
Simply put and we're faking rap together now
Simply put and we're faking rap together now
