Ny Electric Lyrics - Aesop Rock

[Verse 1:] 

I cut the ropes, breathe fresh puddles of pidgeon blood and smoke 

Load bazooka, scope the culprit hulks over a broken hookah 

Got rebel camps with siphons amped to cookie cut the wattage 

Electric ilk NY raised on b-movie sluts and gossip 

Condition the bodega rodent moment composure 

To echo numb and uncommon, dumb monkey pollen 

My 23's lean over a cobra motor milligram bender 

Novelty, I tip lids prior to clipping the comradery 

Check the muck out, When metal maggots burrow in Promised Land vein division 

I tug my brim down over my stigmatism 

Lo-pro, Paxil Rose, axel broke and butchered 

Last catapult standing in a land of coke and hookers 

It's King Kong potluck, no parking for rickshaw loads of sock puppets and sitcoms 

Just Krylon pigs bred in a hot boxed wigwam 

Serotonin deficient teens demonstrate ease in the modern day uzi purchase 

The foundation of their alacrity makes the umis nervous 

Me? Oh I check the newest murals to see whose still bombing this fucker 

and um... respect, find out what it means to me 

New York, walk blocks with electric ninjas who bark bounce for trunked out whips 

Like my company Delorian's the shit 

Skipper's out of happy pills again, he's in the neighbors garbage 

He's making paper dolls decorated with targets 

He's labeling the dolls with the names of shitty rap artists 

Then tearing out the still beating heart from from the loose-leaf carcass 

I ordered a hovercraft off the back page of an Archie comic 

Built it in three days to float above snarky comments 

My gills call the East River rock bottom home with three-eyed guppies and seahorse mutations 

See New York is ancient Rome basic, basically stone faces 

My friend jumped off the Empire State Building while I hung with 10th grade head cases 

Some of them will blossom famous, some of them will blossom base heads 

but they all rep rivets in the die-cast metal Voltron cadence, what!?

[Chorus:] 

NY Electric, catalog, burners, pigs, magnums, crack, bag lady, roach bit, pristine kicks 

Threading the iris of the needle. just for my people 

Im'a thread the needlem just for my people

[Verse 2:] 

Kill 'em all slow, I was on a serious tree bender with my hands up at a C-Rayz-Walz show 

Nether-citcuit bacon don't police me anymore, your trained professionals demonstrate 

41 shots over par 

Least common denominator raise truth like Charlie, Willy, and Gramps 

Raise roofs in a glass 

Wonkavator, monster maker 

Operate wild by the company of unturned stones and litter 

Talk his way out of a sunburn and be home in time for dinner 

Paid dues since before the days of bad acid and Quaaludes 

While the boombox talks trash to the richter 

Stalking awkward with a zip lock on the pill hole 

Bitter fucker, nothing is free, I'll spend my last dollar on me 

Put one up for my family, should've made time to thank 'em 

Put one up for my crew, for recognizing the sanctum 

Put one up for the socially broke, choked and smokey 

New York piss hiss bleed dolby, homey 

[Chorus]
