Nice connection!

You can say these streets are rivers
You can call these rivers streets
You can tell yourself you're dreaming
But even no sleep runs this deep

She's okay if you change the tubes
Tubes in her legs
The tubes in her arms
She's okay
Then it came out and saw the burn net
Indeed in the account of killing
And it flashed on the carpet
And it flashed on the floor
The hamburger lady
She came to rest
Because of the burn she needs relief
From the medication
The qualified Technician

This is the point from which I could never return
And if I back down now then forever I burn
This is the point from which I could never retreat,
'Cause If I turn back now there can never be peace,
This is the point from which I will die and succeed,
Living the struggle, I know I'm alive when I bleed,
From now on it can never be the same as before,
'Cause the place I'm from doesn't exist anymore.

"With yer jaw hangin’ slack n’ yer hair’s curlin’
Like an ole navy fork stickin’ in the sunset"

"You were afraid you’d be the devils red wife
But it’s alright God dug yer dance
‘n would have you young ‘n in his harum
Dress you the way he wants cause he never had uh doll
Cause everybody made him uh boy
‘n God didn’t think t’ ask his preference"

"Now there's lots of ways to persuade you
I could do it with money
I could look at you
I could show you all that
You might as well do it anyway
You might as well choose to play the game"

"What's it like to wet your foot in a cold swimming pool?
What does your voice sound like underwater?
At night?
Can you do the chickenskin swim?
Can you do the chlorine gargoyle?
Can you wriggle like an eel?"

"Face the feast of powder
Face the feast of POWDER"

Florence - What Kind of Man

[Verse 1]
I was on a heavy tip
Trying to cross a canyon with a broken limb
You were on the other side, like always
Wondering what to do with life

[Verse 2]
I'd already had a sip
So I'd reasoned I was drunk enough to deal with it
You were on the other side, like always
You could never make your mind

[Pre-Chorus]
And with one kiss
You inspired a fire of devotion that lasts for twenty years
What kind of man loves like this?

[Verse 3]
To let me dangle at a cruel angle
Oh, my feet don't touch the floor
Sometimes you're half in and then you're half out
But you never close the door

[Chorus]
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?

[Verse 4]
You're a holy fool, all coloured blue
Red feet upon the floor
You do such damage, how do you manage?
To have me crawling back for more

[Pre-Chorus]
And with one kiss
(And with one kiss)
You inspired a fire of devotion that lasts for twenty years
(For twenty years)
What kind of man loves like this?

[Chorus]
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?

[Verse 5]
But I can't beat ya, cause I'm still with ya
"Oh mercy," I implore ("Oh mercy," I implore)
How do you do it? I think I'm through it
Then I'm back against the wall
(Back, back, back against the wall)

[Chorus]
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?
What kind of man loves like this?
What kind of man?

Been in jail for a thousand years
Found a fist in an empty field
Only quarters for meals
Feel the way I feel

Bust the busters
Screw the feeders
Make the healers
Feel the way I feel

Tried to understand the white man's fears
Make 'em bend but they wouldn't yield
Uncle Sam's time is only a greased wheel
Feel the way I feel

I might as well just post all the lyrics from History Will Absolve Me at this point.

"**** thirty days, if you lucky, flavor of the week
The OG reek from the podium during my concession speech
What considerate rapists, keeping jellied petroleum within easy reach"

"Family ties like Cain and Abel
Cutting cocaine on the kitchen table
Ain't want no trouble
But evil got roots
You said no guns but he said he had to shoot
Fire out the cannon
You can't serve god and mammon"

"Selfish
Butter poached shellfish
The charred flesh of the helpless
Scoop marrow from bone
I can only imagine those loans have grown
Like the mortgage on your aspirational home
Liens leaning on your ceiling, the beams groan
You got a lot on your dome
I eat like Noreaga, vomit crusted on the throne
Blood run out the prime rib
Student debt the next ship to sink like that subprime **** did
Napkin, tucked like a bib, filthy
Silverware untouched, rip carcass, grilchy
Swiftly, condemn the guilty, sacrificial lamb
Rosemary and cracked black pepper
What you want from me, marital advice?
I suggest you crack the heifer
Check her"

"When them other niggas jumped ship, we kept it Amistad
Still ended up in front a white judge, praying to God
I owe much, have nothing, leave the rest to the poor
Vegetation lush, Dutch Candy, New York Giants at the door
On some Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum your electric bill is quite the sum"

"Mention the past, all you'll get is a Woody Woodpecker laugh"

"Shoot coward, you are only going to kill a man"

The Drones - I See Seaweed

I see seaweed on the lawn
There's no point coming here no more
Do you remember way back when?
When weeks sank in the swimming pool
Holidays were cotton wool
Your bald tyre friends, the pelicans, cowboys and indians
Admit it, she was kinda cute
Her panties were your parachute
They found her near the airport, in a crater, near the bend
Where she and I'd walk by the zoo
Not knowing we'd do what all plagues do
I forget her all the time these days and be forgotten too

We're lockstepping in our billions
Lockstepping in our swarms
Lockstepping in the certainty that more need to be born

I was fine but not the whole time, see
I fiddled while Rome stewed
It choked my heart, but spades are spades
My head's here now to tell you

We're lockstepping in our billions
Lockstepping in our swarms
Lockstepping in the certainty that more need to be born

And ain't that just the way things are
Yeah you always went too far
And ain't that just the way things go

Passports please, sir you are next
Do you fly direct or indirect?
As the years bleed off that answer's getting harder to detect
Like all the rare air on the cabin floor
Your in-flight film's a score that should be settled
Once the holster calcifies around your neck
But now it's prefab bars, tax free cigars
Stopovers in Bahrain
And they put horse tranqs in the fuel tanks and the staff are all insane

And we're lockstepping in our billions
Lockstepping in our swarms
Lockstepping in the certainty that more need to be born

I'm like a Lockheed in a thunderhead
An Airbus in the sea
The sky is blue, I am too
Yet everything seems clear

We're lockstepping in our billions
Lockstepping in our swarms
Lockstepping in the certainty that more need to be born

But ain't that just the way things are
Yeah you always went too far
But ain't that just the way things go

She'd recollect how ****ed you were
All matter of a fact
And then defend you, being squeamish about the knife stuck in her back

She only sang the dead bird songs
And now I know them all
It's like I'm shooting at a shadow
That a bomb burned on the wall

And we're lockstepping in our billions
Lockstepping in our swarms
Lockstepping in the certainty that more need to be born

There ain't no making what you're breaking
Nothing left of her to clone
I can't remember how she looked although
I do recall her smile coming down the telephone

But ain't that just the way things are
Yeah you always went too far
And ain't that just the way things go
Yeah pretending you don't know

I love the lyrics in this song.
