Cast In Stone

(album: Sponge Cake - 2017)

(HAH!)

(Woo!)

I got your number lucky (woo!)
You ain't gonna be here long (woop!)
At least when I call, and when I fall
So where did it all go wrong? (woop!)

Musta been your proclivity (woo!)
That eventually lead to anonymity (woop!)
Still not sure
Yeah I ain't even worried 'bout the world no more

Hold the phone, here's what's up:
I'm gonna start, so don't sit down
Got time to kill, I only hope
Don't stand still 'cos you'll only choke

Swallowing, alone again
Got so much time left for wandering
Honesty, don't need a reason
Talking shit so brush your teeth son (woo!)

Making tracks (pump up)
You are blind as a bat (hold up)
Can't figure out what time it is
And if you're climbing it's because your timing this

(You know it's not, but it is)
Yeah, it's twenty past four
I don't really even give a no more
As quick as ya'll come ya'll go yo turn twenty four
Got nothing to show, so..

You should never wait
You can hesitate every day, 'til it's too late
And then you blow up like a bomb
I'd rather be a small fish in the proper pond

When everybody seems so clean, stop
Looking for a meaning, trust the way you're leaning
I got hope to attend to
Pretend to depend when I'm meant to

And so ya 'um' and ya 'ah', 'cos it seem too harder
You're labouring on to the misapprehension under
The sheep can't fly but, it's like
Well I ain't gonna tell you it again so
And I ain't gon stop you from dancing

Yeah the blind lead the blind and they wind up behind
You in the silence, and there's nothing you can do to be timeless
So you flash in the pan
A small splash in the dam...

But no overspill, but in the debrief then it's overfilled
You were just setting up the three-leaf clover still
And so you mould into dough
Waiting for something, still nothing to show

So it be, gotta be
No way it gonna happen
You got a degree?
Look at me clapping

The writ come on the walls said:
'You have got the answers, but no sense at all', So
How'd you get to be a star?
Smooth ride in a bumper car, dealing with the jump start

Times change and you don't
You're not so you won't
No one will know who you are
You can only go so far

Eyes open, mouth move
Pump nang, miss the brain
Just a party
So why the long face?

High shine, wrong place, right time
Or you get disregarded
And if it don't occur
Well don't be disheartened

Such a blur, such a blur
From the way you were, when you started
Leaving your time dispondent
Such a bargain.. beg your pardon?

(Yeah!)

Yeah yeah!
Such a fun kid, but you ain't all there
And you got helping assisters to feed your existence
Therefore beware for your needed here

Your mess son
You had better clean it up
Flip you over
Imma give your head an enema

Soak it up
Slower than a sponge
Quicker than a turtle
Take it as it comes

And the peppy little rabbit gets tired in time
Soon he had fences to keep him in line, boy
Even if another path does reappear it's like
You might only be here a year or so

(uh, yeah)

Sometimes you will need
Step outside of home
So that you will see
Time is just a cloud

You should have a go
You won't ever know
We are gonna die
So don't take your time

Only you know where to stop
Don't be something you're not
Only you
Know it's true

You got so much time to go
So think more than you know
When you do
It's overdue

Sometimes all you need
Is another point of view
So that you will see
What some others do

You will never know
How much you can grow
We are gonna head
So I'll see you there
