[00:00.400]Dennis Rod, Dennis Rod, Dennis Rod, Dennis Rod
[00:48.040]I'm thinking about God.
[00:51.010]Is it a he or a she or a feeling or love?
[00:54.880]Does she personally ordain every occurrence and every moment.
[00:56.300]Or did she set the universe in motion and then move on?
[01:01.640]To try to top her achievement?
[01:05.650]Maybe this universe wasn't an achievement at all
[01:09.940]Maybe our lives, our wars, our *******, our diseases
[01:13.410]Our love, our humanity, our passion, our pennies, our holocaust
[01:20.820]Are all just a rehearsal before the show
[01:24.630]A sketch before the mural, a stretch before the jump
[01:29.290]Does she love me? Does God know I'm here?
[01:34.930]I'm thinking about God, I'm thinking about ***
[01:40.070]I've been holy all day and acted in ways that deserve adjectives like.
[01:44.680]"Honorable, " "good, " and "straight"
[01:48.430]But it's after 10PM now and I'm bored
[01:51.740]I watched a movie on the internet alone and now it's over.
[01:55.580]I pick up my phone and text every female I know within a fifteen-mile radius
[02:01.350]It's a terrible thing that deserves adjectives like
[02:05.940]"Chauvinistic, " "objectifying, " and "asshole-ish" (Dennis Rodman)
[02:09.330]I made that up just for myself.
[02:14.820]
[02:15.410]"Hey, Nicole"
[02:17.440]"Oh, hey, what's up Mike? I'm about to get in bed, you?"
[02:22.650]"Well, I'm chilling, I've just been thinking about you, winky face"
[02:29.280]"Haha, really random, I haven't seen you in so long, what made you think about me?"
[02:36.170]"Well, to be honest, I'm bored, and I'm thinking about ***"
[02:44.160]I'm thinking about horses, they're so goddamn regal
[02:49.300]Their muscles ripple through their skin like waves in a little ocean
[02:54.030]Magnificent beasts
[02:56.390]
[02:56.620]But why the **** do they listen to us?
[03:00.000]They're so much stronger than they know
[03:01.840]But they trade their freedom for a dependable meal
[03:05.750]They let people get on top of them and tell them where to go
[03:11.060]But how can I judge?
[03:12.980]Is that not exactly what I do?
[03:15.380]Is that not exactly what we all do?
[03:19.340]
[03:21.010]I'm thinking about horses
[03:24.430]I'm thinking about dad
[03:27.630]He's seventy and he's just starting to get old
[03:31.450]Things are gonna change soon
[03:34.500]I don't feel ready for the change that's coming soon
[03:37.930]I am standing on the beach watching the tsunami grow
[03:41.760]From a minuscule rise in the horizon to a monstrous tidal wave
[03:45.330]I am not moving, I am not scared
[03:47.630]I am not scared, I am not wearing swimwear
[03:49.660]I am standing on the beach waiting for the tsunami
[03:55.350]And dad taught me about love and sacrifice
[03:58.490]But that's sort of like a book that you read and forgot about
[04:01.960]'Cause I don't love and I don't sacrifice
[04:03.740]And youth was my excuse for that, but that excuse is getting old
[04:09.530]
[04:10.290]Maybe I'm gay
[04:12.570]I'm thinking about dad
[04:15.130]I'm thinking about death
[04:18.360]What if this plane goes down?
[04:21.790]That would be okay, you know, yo I had a good run
[04:26.360]I wonder if a lot of people would come to my funeral
[04:30.220]Maybe my fans would do something special
[04:33.010]Maybe they'd cry and maybe it'd be in the newspaper
[04:36.920]Yeah, I think I'd get in the Detroit News
[04:39.940]Probably not the New York Times
[04:44.250]People'll probably like my music more when I die
[04:48.310]'Cause they'll know no more is coming
[04:51.910]You see, people love stories with endings
[04:54.360]Right now, I'm just sort of a story that's dragging on slowly
[04:58.820]Page by page, year by year
[05:01.590]But people want an ending, they want a crash
[05:03.060]They want a ear in the ******* mail
[05:07.260]But I don't have one
[05:09.900]All I have is another lousy poem
[05:19.980]And the knowledge that I'll probably die somewhere confused and decrepit in a nursing home
[05:20.630]I don't think this plane's gonna crash
[05:24.090]I'm thinking about Otis, I'm thinking about Kurt
[05:27.260]I'm thinking about Dilla, I'm thinking about
[05:28.520]
[05:45.020]Changed my hair green, and all of a sudden
[05:48.210]People looked at me like I was the devil (devil, devil)
[06:00.770]Here we go (die)
[06:04.510]Green (green, green, green, green, green)
