[00:11.890]My rhyme ain't good just yet,
[00:13.360]My brain and tongue just met,
[00:14.710]And they ain't friends, so far,
[00:16.180]My words don’t travel far,
[00:17.520]They tangle in my hair,
[00:18.850]And tend to go nowhere,
[00:20.190]They grow right back inside,
[00:21.630]Right past my brain and eyes
[00:23.430]Into my stomach juice
[00:24.720]Where they don’t serve much use,
[00:26.020]No healthy calories,
[00:27.440]Nutrition values.
[00:28.710]And I absorb back in
[00:30.400]The words right through my skin
[00:33.050]They sit there festering inside my bowels
[00:34.770]The consonants and vowels
[00:36.660]The consequence of sounds
[00:42.760]The consonants and vowels
[00:47.900]The consequence of sounds
[00:58.930]Got a soundtrack in my mind,
[00:59.910]Kids- Screamin' from too much beat up
[00:59.980]All the time.
[01:01.660]And they don't even rhyme,
[01:02.760]They just stand there, on a street corner,
[01:04.350]Skin tucked in
[01:05.280]And meat side out and shouting,
[01:06.650]And I’d like to turn them down
[01:08.040]But there ain't no knob.
[01:08.740]Born into picket fences
[01:11.320]Not into picket lines.
[01:12.630]All this hippie-**** for the 60's
[01:13.820]And another cliché for our time.
[01:15.070]But, But a one of these days your heart
[01:16.690]Will just stop ticking,
[01:18.580]And they sorta just don't find you till your cubicle is reeking.
[01:20.690]The consonants and vowels
[01:24.680]The consequence of sounds
[01:30.590]The consonants and vowels
[01:36.300]The consequence of sounds
[01:42.830]Ahh ah ah ah ahh ah ah ah
[01:59.920]Did you know that the gravedigger's still
[02:11.020]Gettin' stuck in the machine
[02:11.730]Even tough it's a whole other daydream.
[02:14.090]It's another town it's another world,
[02:16.110]Where the kids are asleep, where the loans are paid
[02:18.800]And the lawns are mowed.
[02:20.080]Whad'ya think?
[02:21.510]All the gravediggers were gone?
[02:23.240]Just cause one song is done
[02:24.220]There’s always another one,
[02:25.750]Waiting right around the bend,
[02:27.210]Till this one ends,
[02:28.490]Then it begins
[02:30.030]Squeaky clean and it starts all over again.
[02:31.690]The weather report keeps on
[02:33.870]Tossing and turning,
[02:35.110]Predicting and warning,
[02:36.520]And warning and warning of,
[02:38.280]Possible leakage from news publications and,
[02:40.760]Possible leakage from news
[02:43.140]TV stations.
[02:44.840]That Very same morning right next to her coffee
[02:46.740]She noticed some bleeding and heard hollow coughing and
[02:50.510]National Geographic was being too graphic,
[02:53.010]When all she had wanted to know was the traffic “
[02:55.500]The worlds got a nosebleed” it said “
[02:58.720]And we’re flooding but we keep on cutting
[03:01.240]The trees and the forests!”
[03:03.070]And we keep on paying those freaks on the
[03:04.840]TV, Who claim they will save us but want to enslave us.
[03:07.220]And sweating like demons they scream through our speakers
[03:10.040]But we leave the sound on 'cause silence is harder.
[03:13.490]And no one’s the killer and no one’s the martyr
[03:16.420]The world that has made us can no longer contain us
[03:20.090]And prophets are silent then rotting away 'cause
[03:27.640]The consonants and vowels
[03:33.480]The consequence of sounds.
[03:39.230]The consonants and vowels
[03:45.250]The consequence of sounds.
[03:50.500]Ah ah ah…
[04:04.830]My rhyme ain't good just yet,
[04:18.260]My brain and tongue just met,
[04:18.890]And they aint friends, so far,
[04:20.560]My words don't travel far,
[04:21.710]They tangle in my hair,
[04:23.070]And tend to go nowhere,
[04:24.250]They grow right back inside,
[04:26.230]Right past my brain and eyes
[04:27.860]Into my stomach juice
[04:29.770]Where they don't serve much use,
[04:29.890]No healthy calories, Nutrition values.
[04:32.340]And I absorb back in
[04:34.380]The words right through my skin
[04:39.800]They sit there festering inside my bowels
[04:45.480]The consonants and vowels
[04:47.350]The consequence of sounds
[04:50.660]The consonants and vowels
[04:53.630]The consequence of sounds
