Lyrics

[Verse 1] What explodes like a fractal Pops like a lite bulb Looks really awful At four in the morning Moves with a dead stare Coils around your ankles Fangs long as neckties And strike without warning [Verse 2] What implodes like a Zeppelin Cracks like pavement Smokes in the basement And knows when yer lying Comes to a dead stop Forgives you like Jesus Cold as a windchill With eyes like Abe Lincoln [Verse 3] What is dark like a birthmark Pulls like a magnet Male and female And covets like a dragon Grows to a shark length Contracts to amoeba Lives in your soul And loves you like I do [Verse 4] What appears like an angel Stabs like a dagger Fills you with light And bleeds you of matter Comes to a dead stop Forgives you like Jesus Hands you a love only Found in the Vedas [Verse 5] What explodes like a fractal Pops like a lite bulb Strolls in like Joel Gray At four in the morning Armed with a big nose Fragile as a sea horse Lives in your soul And loves you like I do [Instrumental Outro]
