lyrics

some have lost their home
on a thousand euro phone
some have lost their way
driving towards l a
and i’ve got a machine
that generates my dreams
got all my friends to know
they can meet me at my shows
all his three critiques
got me a fine degree
i learned to phrase my words
sing ‘science never hurts’
so simple as can be
here’s my poetry
waiting to be heard
by shepherd or the herd

give me the needle, give me the shot
the shot is made of longing
i just can’t get enough

about five-hundred years ago
there was a guy, galileo
and all that he could see
led to reality tv
so this morning i woke up
at evening i lay down
waiting for the day
i slowly learned to fade away
two days in quarantine
led to broke self-esteem
i watched the children scheme
how to live their broken dreams
and on the balcony
i’ll await my salary
deconstruct the modern beats
just to write them poetries

give the needle, give me the shot
give me a second call
the shot is made of longing
i just can’t get enough
give me the needle, give me the shot
the shot is made of longing
i just can’t get enough
