Common Market Lyrics
40 Acres Lyrics
Heard em singin this is my land standin on Mama Helens
With the band off-key; will fill em with jealousy
Well develop a gluttonous thirst for sullen fiends
I pilot the Allis Chalmers over skulls in the ravine
Chokin horse power open her up and holler f*ck class
Specialized degree in chemistry, huffin mustard gas
High hopes, underachiever he tends to overdose
Hella smell of smoke and soda, the mode is so morose
Nam vet, still in camouflage circa 85
Way to ride, son I seen your father on the day he died
Dropped this in the pocket with the gem in the ear
F*ck the watch, old man, its the wisdom I wanna hear
Fought with the words, inexperienced in the expression
The voice fades, granted its a vague recollection but
Let it pass, is what he leant what it meant? Never asked
Many mysteries will be revealed through the devils craft
Im a fast study, barn burner, the charm turnin
Ugly under sparks when sharpening up the cutlery
Skill a little rusty but trust me, Imma resuscitate
This call is hard to kill off once it culminates
Hibernation, my obligation is contractual
Where have all the good men gone? Theyre on sabbatical
Baptizing my goddaughter, water wash the hands of blood
But soles soiled with the sand and mud
For the love of them rise above and cleanse the sins
I can part with that much, just dont touch the timbs
Every scuff I earned, armchair sucker-tough, I yearn
To compare it to the stuff I learned
Colonel status til the graduate passed on, the pursuit of
Passion will stop upon a plot on Vashon
Nice one, boy the soy thats on the upper row
Price one; thats a bison, not a buffalo
Hustle grand, seen a demand for organic
In toxicity limits infinitely more panic
Theyre resorting to importing plants from other planets
It cancels out the importance of the advantage
Theyre tantric types neophytes with dietary afflictions
Imposing proprietary restrictions
Time to go to war, shortly Ill be back in Drennon
Attending to 40 acres and a dissident
