The Bottom of the World is Gold, and the World is Upside Down

from Coin Toss Timelines by Little Big Toe

lyrics

I’m pulling plugs on organisms that run on batteries
Their sockets are filled with water droplets and safety pins
He’s dressing up in battle gear when formal attire is mandatory
And endless vats of whiskey are an ocean
He’s driving around in vanity plates, he’s a confident man
But all the money in the world couldn’t pay for a smile on his black soul

Sucker punched in the gut with three hundred-ten pounds of force
And now he’s bleeding from eyes sliced by wires and head first dives
Into the pavement, he should have cut himself off

A broken record, with a needle impaired repeats whining syllables
Occupation in a shape of frozen water in trays dissolves useless medicine
He’s hopping barriers while men in neckties abuse a sounding device
To get their stories across, they toss a burning lamp between yellow and white lines

Pending laws await cures, as the Sabbath fills up a church
& a man dressed in white asks for change from a wife through a check that’s made out to cash

A phone call at a funeral interrupts a brother’s eulogy
Who spoke of childhood playground games of hide and seek where no one won
And teachers ate apples, a worm crawled in and laid down inside

I’m pulling plugs on organisms that run on batteries
the sockets are filled with water droplets and safety pins
