[Verse 1: El-P]

You know I get down, I'm a downer, heart pounder

LOLin', smelling like Sarin

Felony forecast: El is

Dressed to the nines like a target

Dressed like a bullseye for a blind archer

Heart of a piranha, swimming where the blood chums water

Lark in the darkness watching, I got this

Boombox burner boy hot shit

Burn like an LA sunset, colorful, toxic

Snuff stuff, deadly and erotic

Walk like a man not a product, run like a strumpet

Talk to the hand sock puppet

Look at them sky write: "fuck it, we heart nothin'

We don't have a tear for your bucket"

Life's but a pageant, that ain't on no deep shit

Try to pull the curtain back crack goes police whip

Here come the stage mums

Dress your little whores to display them

Cutting through my brain like a ray gun

Telling you these fuckers are shameless, Obama to Reagan

Look at how they bent to their training

Why would I be angered

Not when I can chemically hang glide, angle

Face dive mangled, anguish

Notice I maraud odd language, roll a joint

Hit a fraud god 'til he vanquish, bonus point


[Chorus 1: Nick Diamonds]

I'm thrown

With all this chrome and

You sound like you're drowning

Drown, drown, drown, drown

Get down, stay down


[Verse 2: El-P]

You know I get bent I'm a Bender

Futura-Ra-ma-Dom-inant gene gone bad and

Passed along to my blood stream pumping madness

Pour a little hell down hatch it's

Standard practice how to detach

From a white noise planet with a dispatch

Straight from command to throw haymaker plus land it

Never take a win for granted

Remember the pitch that I sang with

To anoint masses before mass graves hatch like magic

Everybody bows to the bastards

Anthem acid dispatchers get rancid

Fact of the matter I graph and track hapless

Live in a mirage, it's hard to not crack kid

What's that? Pass it

Wanna watch? I'ma smoke 'til I'm bat shit

Choke like a champion


[Chorus 2: Nick Diamonds]

I'm thrown

Like I've been thrown, now

I'll sound like I'm drowning

Drown, drown, drown, drown

Get down, stay down


[Bridge: Nick Diamonds]

I'm thrown

Like I've been thrown, now

Stay down, down, down, down, down

Stay down

(Get down, stay down)


[Outro: El-P]

Ha-ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Ah-hah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha

A-ha-ha
