Lyrics

[Verse 1] Maman Neigho was frightened by Hawaiians When all the veins ran out When too much bone structure went missing She thumbed the galleon Cacafuego Forsook the eyebrows climbing Into greasy black hairlines Narcrotic leis yanked down around the melianomed ankles Their putrid petals dropping Erasing the white shoes Like a face being eaten by a jungle Slabs of steam tables Whiffing of onions and roses Haunted Jacuzzis churning All night the native bods squealing B-flat Like choirs of pigs Seeking revenge for stolen insulin [Verse 2] Blip boost bust brother That's how we copped a final Reached this city without sound Everywhere you turn Bunkers of rubber hoses pronging up off the city's floor Chirp chime clambaked cups Don't step on that rotting tartare Just might bust your conk Might lay your racket Early black ickaroo [Chorus] It's dense, tense Unseen through, pound for pound All the people, on the corners Pushing each other around Humping like buggers Touching like muggers Pushing each other around [Verse 3] Adipocere in a zoot Sloshing karat Ballooning down the street Thousand kilos simpy Forty stone send Tips his skypiece Come to weigh me up But I'm toned Gut bucket Ground grippers ready to trilly Layin' down iron togged to the bricks [Verse 4] Shhh... Let's add a little shade Try something apart from the hogshair While Pope Julius affects his red slippers Let Michelangelo tip-toe around In his dogskin boots Shhh... The powder on a chalky bosom rises And hangs in the air Clouds crawling through protracted blue Like souls of insects From threshing haze The scent of spider lilies [Bridge] Sam P's bagged decapitation Rotates to the ocean floor It's nostrils are twitching and sniffing [Verse 5] Gabriel's gravy Got your glasses on gate There's some mezz glimmers A gammon V8 Twisters in the slammer Frisking their whiskers Till peola dim On the chime of black [Chorus] It's dense, tense Unseen through, pound for pound Scratch and Jesus, on the corner Pushing each other around Shoving like sluggers Touching like muggers Pushing each other around Snapping their caps Slidin' their jibs Lampin' the brees Drapin' the trees [Verse 6] Oops, pardon the elbow Let's just shift you over here Sorry, I'm so clumsy Take that accidentally in the bollocks, for a start Seven brights jumped in port Reached this city without sound Kopasetic, on the corners Pushing each other around Everybody on the corners Pushing each other around Joe below, hincty dicty Slipped the pounders fews and two Knock me, boot me Down in the land of darkness [Outro] Sweet Leilani Heavenly flower
