Legerdemain - Aesop Rock/Blockhead.mp3

[00:03.350][Verse 1]
[00:12.113]Chicken noodle thermos, parka marching out the army surplus
[00:15.567]Over thermals over thermals over thermals over thermals, look
[00:19.011]Owl on my shoulder, initials on the katana
[00:21.671]Whispering something wicked through a moisture-wicking balaclava
[00:25.397]Not a cop in sight, not a watt of light in the fog
[00:27.787]Silent night to God almighty just from lighting cigars
[00:30.968]Not a creature is stirring to purging lightning from the eye on my palm
[00:34.956]Wide as long as y'all can die and re-spawn
[00:37.616]Still going, if only a vehicle for merino wool
[00:40.804]Who volunteer to wake to St. Bernards for the foreseeable
[00:43.982]I'm edumacated on every threat in the trade
[00:46.908]Started checking the checker for any legerdemain
[00:50.098]Caught 'em fudging the numbers and hiding birds in they coat
[00:53.011]Burning phones and computers inside a circle of stones
[00:56.204]When policing the people is, "Please return to your homes"
[00:59.128]You get a people determined to take a turn in the strobe
[01:02.316]
[01:02.583][Chorus]
[01:03.639]I found something in the woods I wanna show you
[01:10.548]It just might change how you float around the O2
[01:15.068]You was like, "Okay, bet," drove twenty minutes (Drove twenty minutes)
[01:18.515]Looked for thirty seconds, said, "Can I get a witness?"
[01:21.703]Went home different
[01:24.628]Went home different
[01:26.226]
[01:26.744][Verse 2]
[01:28.871]Two pair of socks under reindeer mukluks
[01:31.530]Aiming to keep ten pigs awake in the tundra
[01:34.459]Plaza to plaza, thermometer going nuh-uh
[01:37.904]My posse out of pocket on some occupy the umbra
[01:41.091]If it's under freezing, I don't even wanna know a number
[01:43.752]Just show me to the rolling thunder, wubba, wubba, wubba
[01:48.005]Today a mall cop told me I should get a life
[01:53.842]Double black diamond, a pirate to private property
[01:56.767]Lion-hearted pioneer of high Garbology
[02:00.747]First archer to set the firestarter oxen free
[02:03.405]Defending some forgotten block of uncommon geometry
[02:06.592]Before they fixed the road, there used to be this bump to bump
[02:09.785]I guess in '97, so and so did such and such
[02:12.697]In Timbs on someone else's board
[02:14.293]Tell the story, spread the lore
[02:16.155]It's epic to a people who would rather push than teleport
[02:19.345]
[02:19.610][Chorus]
[02:20.141]I found something in the woods I wanna show you
[02:28.809]It just might change how you float around the O2
[02:30.923]You was like, "Okay, bet," drove twenty minutes (Drove twenty minutes)
[02:34.379]Looked for thirty seconds, said, "Can I get a witness?"
[02:37.308]Went home different
[02:39.962]Went home different
[02:42.078]
[02:42.612][Verse 3]
[02:44.205]Get your wig in the wind, get a feel for the traffic
[02:47.129]Whether it's static or speedy, whether it's real or imagined
[02:49.793]The colder the weather, the realer the magic
[02:54.033]At least that's how it feels when it happens, okay
[02:56.957]Raiders of the roads and parking lots of greater Carcasonne
[02:59.881]Canis lupis carcass on, take me to your garlic knots
[03:03.328]Coffin through the cars, I'm a part of a larger carpet bomb
[03:07.052]Still partial to the wrong crowd, sorry, mom
[03:10.238]Wander Eden, not a meter predetermined
[03:12.631]Turn a curb into an evening, that's the key to freezer burning
[03:15.812]I'm freezer burning, sweat a boiling ocean early Feb'
[03:19.002]My coaches told me don't come home without the serpent's head
[03:22.192]I told 'em hold my turkey leg, point me at a pitchfork
[03:24.851]Brought the trophy home and took the poultry back still warm
[03:29.891]Out to flirt with hypothermia
[03:31.489]It's CCTV's blurriest insurgents in your area
[03:34.145]
[03:34.677][Chorus]
[03:35.741]I found something in the woods I wanna show you
[03:42.114]It just might change how you float around the O2
[03:46.633]You was like, "Okay, bet," drove twenty minutes (Drove twenty minutes)
[03:50.345]Looked for thirty seconds, said, "Can I get a witness?"
[03:53.002]Went home different
[03:55.926]Went home different
