Lemming (Outtake)

(album: Transistor - 1997)

Listen up
'Cause this is universal
This is not a drill
This is not rehearsal
I cannot tell if it's true
You seem so honest and sick
And it's no trick
I gotta know
I gotta, gotta bust through
I'm on a mission
And it is a must, you
You gotta knack
A course, a tack
And everyone you meet just trusts you

And like a lemming to the sea, you lead me
I think we're swimming but it can be deceiving
You crash down to rocks, your fall not long
But you're only a fool for believing
Like a lemming to the sea, you lead me
I think we're swimming but it can be deceiving
You crash down to rocks, your fall not long
But you're only a fool for believing

Telephone ring
Lost my contemplation
Should I answer it?
Certain confrontation
What do you knows
It comes to blows
My ears are ringing from your vibrations
So what do you call a girl who trips like that?
You call her history
Huh huh huh history
Leaving no mystery
Had to leave

And like a lemming to the sea, you lead me
I think we're swimming but it can be deceiving
You crash down to rocks, your fall not long
But you're only a fool for believing
Like a lemming to the sea, you lead me
I think we're swimming but it can be deceiving
You crash down to rocks, your fall not long
But you're only a fool for believing

When you called my house
You must have slipped a card
Everything changed, man
Wagging like a dog
A tale of two reggae MCs
Switching up styles
Saying what they please, uh

Keep it going now

Stopped by deception
And I learned my lesson
I'll never ever do it again, no
Stopped by deception
And I learned my lesson
I'll never ever do it again, no

And like a lemming to the sea, you lead me
I think we're swimming but it can be deceiving
You crash down to rocks, your fall not long
But you're only a fool for believing
Like a lemming to the sea, you lead me
I think we're swimming but it can be deceiving
You crash down to rocks, your fall not long
But you're only a fool for believing
