"SHORT"

Lyrics by Deacon Burns

Kounterclockwise!

Pump your brakes, check your ticket! Yeah!

My soul is an angel and in my heart lies the devil in a life of grins and fables, darkness and shadows

World of computers and infomercials

Daytime talk-shows, sluts and music videos

I’m a bottle of soda constantly being shaken in a room with no bottle openers

So what’s your pleasure?

You got your whole life behind you

I’m a fuel injected suicide machine

Don’t pull my lever unless you want to feel the pressure

My mind is coming undone at the seams

Drink. Fight. Fuck

Lost. Trapped. Stuck

Mouth taped shut, you can’t hear my screams

I live it. It’s not a gimmick

Christ and Judas all in one spirit

True alcoholic, pour me my breakfast

Haunted by electronics, my mind is robotic

Easily I approach the microphone cause I ain’t no joke

Tell your bitch to get off of my tip

I got no time to give her this dick. Yeah!

Easily I approach the microphone cause I ain’t no joke

Tell your bitch to get off of my tip

I got no time to give her this dick!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

It’s cut throat

This is daylight savings time

Set your clocks back kounterclockwise

This is my demise

The vanishing animal trapped in a world with deaf children

I can’t do sign language cause my hands are constantly swollen from punching and scratching just to relieve frustration

Cursed with knowledge, I wish I was stupid like these niggas and bitches all blind with ignorance

But yet I’m the one held hostage cause I care too much and my love is not accepted

So ignore it or take it

I’ll still write it and say it and mean it and feel it

Beyond the infinite definition of any dictionary description

So even if you claim to comprehend, I’m beyond your comprehension

So stop fronting like you’ve done figured out my functions or something dumb nigga

What you thinking?

Easily I approach the microphone cause I ain’t no joke

Tell your bitch to get off of my tip

I got no time to give her this dick. Yeah!

Easily I approach the microphone cause I ain’t no joke

Tell your bitch to get off of my tip

I got no time to give her this dick!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

For sure ya’ll niggas be short!

It’s cut throat
