through to December a queen's fat lie rings out a pearly gong my word a humour bomb sound on hold go slow it won't it won't stay long say not a sausage timely fashion can time is clapping time is rope for hanging too a five fingered knife push comes to shove boring entrails hollowing hollowing through why ever come with wood and strings why ever come to sad sings why ever did the many sing sing and shout of the few to rhyme land and then i'll sell myself while i pray for green through white cut the riddles clean float the wallowing sea go slow it's hot it's hot and tight the time luck myth the available trend time is clapping time is rope for catching falls sun crashes through night bathing in the light thaw hut choking with snow tall it's no fall how ever does a new song begin how ever does a song sing how ever come the heady sing sings and sounds out so true all you ever see of me is not what's underneath all you ever seem to see that's all you really seem to see of me do i dare be one of those who shines white light and wants to show the outsider steps into the spotlight blindingly bright it's hot and tight the sun crashing like cymbals splits apart the sky o violent light o giver and taker of life the transformer summons forth another life all too aware that all must die from just a glint in the eye to explosions in the sky

hey i know a million other songs start this way but that's okay hey let's put it this way i'm game if you are game let's play let's play let's play let's play a little back and forth down south up north you first me second and or third and fourth or we can always switch we are here now here we are back and forth third and fourth put this here and put that there quick slow down quick hit the brake before we break if you make a mistake just do it again they'll think it's what you meant dancing on the ceiling fucking without feeling love without confusion it's all illusion see look at this way the circle is a square he says get lost, get found or get lost or we could just get lost if you make a mistake just do it again they'll think it's what you meant and if it's good do it again repetition again and again i can hear chanting in the distance can't you? we'll come back to that do what you can with what you have right now written in Infinite Jest: "and lo, for the earth was empty of form and void. and darkness was all over the face of the deep. and we said look at that fucker dance." it takes one to know one it takes two to tango three cheers for the DJ and four on the floor five fingered discount six feet i'm under seven i'm in heaven and eight i'm on the black ball so many plans i'm out of headroom but deciding to do nothing is hardly a decision at all what's a free radical to do with all these maps and plans and charts and formulae colour by numbers and keep within the lines a free and independent may just choose to do so to know's one's limitations is to have none hey i know a million other lives and loves start this way but that's okay hey let's put it that way i'm game if life's a game let's play let's play let's play a little back to front publicity stunt i keep thinking who's keeping score or remembers the number we started with we can hear now hear ye hear ye back and forth play the ball you put this here i'll put that there get down quick i'll hit the spot before i stop if you make a mistake just do it again i'll know exactly what you meant running without panting singing without chanting new days replace the ancient ways yeah you could see it that way but this feeling is always there and if it's good do it again repetition again and again i hear chanting in the distance can't you hear it? we'll come back to that do what you can with what you have right now so many plans i'm out of headroom but deciding to do nothing is hardly a decision at all what's a free radical to do with all these maps and plans and charts and formulae colour by numbers and keep between the lines a free and independent may just choose to do so written in Infinite Jest: "you compete with your own limits to transcend self in imagination and execution. disappear inside the fame: break through limits: transcend: improve: win. you seek to vanquish and transcend the limited self whose limits make the game possible in the first place. it is tragic and sad and chaotic and lovely. life's endless war against the self you cannot live without."

i'm making me over i'm making new out of the oldest stuff (we're all made of starstuff) echo! echo! with all the doubles that i've made echo! echo! sending out another wave every wave that breaks it shapes and makes an echo go through me it shakes and breaks kicking through the sand the time it's taking to know myself is the time it's taking to go right back around to the start (we're all made of starstuff) echo! echo! to make is to break echo! echo! and to break is to make make the silence break some noise every atom in me was something else before but every atom in me has never been right here right now before you'll find nothing that's done today is nothing more than an echo of ancestral days (we're all made of starstuff) echo! echo! everything that you've been through echo! echo! and everything you will ever do echoes through you now and it is what makes you you and it is what makes me me it's all creation to make is to break and to break is to make it makes me make me
