Adrian Belew - Figure It Out

(belew/fetters/nyswonger)





You don’t retain your calm


Either you’re an anvil


Or sell me your aunt


And your car is almost gone


Figure it out





My bag’s against the wall


You knocked me up


You didn’t knock me out


And I’m God about to brawl


Figure it out





Talk beheads the cat


Shoes off the couch


Or I catch a rat


But I’ll rent you a riot hat


Figure it out





My bulk’s across the mall


A wounded ham was an animal


And I’ve got a bout of gall


Figure it out





My back’s against the wall


Figure it out


And I’m not about to crawl


Figure it out
