"Metanoia" Lyrics

Bassinets, clarinets, proletarian chariots
Polyunsaturated cinemaplexi-glass cathedrals
Anxious daffodils falling off the window sill
But better still a sleeping pill L-tryptophan's illegal

Squirming, unlearning
Swirling in a cloud of unknowing
Silence, violence
Swirling in a cloud of unknowing

Hella cool swimming pools, corporate tools, vestibules
Herring bones, monotones, macro cosmic snow cones
Stroking the ego, wrapping it up in swaddling clothes
Anointing it with aluminum foil

Squirming, unlearning
Twirling in a cloud of unknowing
Silence, violence
Twirling in a cloud of unknowing

Aluminum siding salesmen
Drowning in a sea of alliteration
Relentlessly searching
For non-existent clarity

Big fat bluffin' anguished muffin
Bad Brain H.R. Puffin' stuffin'
Dirty socks, Ono box
Goldi lox and cream cheese

Drunken boat billy goat
Trapped in Annette Funnicello
Full of fish and roses
And the posies

Squirming, unlearning
Pudding in a cloud of unknowing
Silence, violence
Pudding in a cloud of unknowing

Quantum plumbing, the pineal gland
The sixth chakra, the seventh seal
Enveloping pelicans
Pecking at the crumbs of enlightenment
Retrograde planets plunging
Into the arms of America
