Nightlight Lyrics - Aesop Rock

Voice: "Day turns Night" x8 

(Aesop Rock) 

Night Light suckas. 

Put one up shackle me, not clean logic procreation 

I did invent the wheel, in a previous generation 

While the triple sixers lassos keep angels roped in the basement 

I locate my old halos and pass em out to the pavement 

Y'all catch a 30-second flash frame 

Dirty cooperative med platoon bloom head-trip split 

Fantastic! Fathom the splicing of major league low lifes 

With anti hero earthworm mentality (Godzilla!) 

I paced my game to zero hour completion 

See a cretin's still a cretin even speakin' altered moniker 

American nightmare lost in the monitor 

I'll hold the door open so you can stagger through 

Then send berserker-bred jukies in after you 

It's gutter and I spell it with the 'G' I stole from "Get the fuck up" 

Noise crutch stolen wretched refuse of my teeming dumb luck 

Still I promise temperance storm breed still bleeding Amish 

See the freaks sucked out the wattage while 3 bears invade the cottage 

And I can't sleep now 

Yeah, the bullies'll laugh 

You won't be laughing when your covered wagons crash 

You won't be laughing when you're hosted by the ghost of Christmas past 

You won't be laughing when your blow up doll's 

got a headache and won't give up the ass 

And I lay my kicks to rest when I'm impressed 

So I staple-gun them to my feet 

This origami dream is beautiful: pull the tail, watch the wings flap 

But you really can't do a thing with that

All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day 

Swallow up the pieces 

Spit 'em at your species 

Beached in the city of lost barnacles and leeches 

Night-light got me when the daylight went to evening 

Night (Light) Day (Light) x8 

I'm pretty sure I got a pulse. plus 

We Shimmy cross the centerfold, and our night light engulfed 

Just let me keep the crumbs (Please) 

With seven deadly stains 

To hear the plane to crystal conscious 

The results a dead-beat trying to make a dollar off a bomb threat (OK) 

Link me to activism chain activate wild-style Pluto orbit 

Set a course then push the button 

I swallow spores born by the laws of a morbid glutton 

I can spot a duck battalion by the Charlie Chaplin waddle 

Zig zag and zig 'em again before they can pull a badge out 

But I lash out 

Another thick installment of one night in Gotham like 

"Houston we have a problem" 

They're buffing the trains the same days the graffiti writers bomb 'em 

Who split how many freaks on a box cuts cinema high road bellow? 

Heads ripped! Watch red bricks turn yellow 

I'll try to meet the wizard 

But a tailgating tin-man holding an oil can 

won't let a hermit crab break in his new shell-toes 

Life's not a bitch, life is a beotch 

who keeps the villagers circling the marketplace 

out searching for the G-spot 

Maybe she didn't feel y'all shared any similar interests 

Or maybe you're just an asshole; maybe I'm just an asshole 

Kiss the speaker wire, Sammy Swashbuckler pagan threshhold 

Stomach full of diner food 

Wings span cast black upon views 

Here to help release the rabid hounds or pick apart your mood 

I got this friend of polar nature and it's all peace 

When I seek similar stars but can't sit at the same feast 

Metal Captain! 

This cat is asking if I've seen his little lost passions 

I told him: "Yeah, I gave 'em one last look and smashed 'em"

All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day 

Swallow up the pieces 

Spit 'em at your species 

Reachin' the city of lost barnacles and leeches 

Night-light got me when the daylight went to evening 

Night (Light) Day (Light).
