Poise Lyrics - This Is Our Music - Ornette Coleman

Some nights we got too high to fall asleep 

These nights we went Stark Raving 

Star gazing like Carl Sagan 

We screamed at the moon 

Then eclipsed it with a spoon 

Bob Dylan style 

Young and wild but still so unenthused 

I think we're Stark Raving 

The walls inhaled and exhaled to the rhythm of our sleepless hearts 

Pulsating like a distant drum, like an 808 

They palpitate to a beat we couldn't calculate 

Our friends changed as our tea got cold 

We danced with wolves in sheepskin coats 

These nights we went Stark Raving 

I became nocturnal and started keeping a journal 

Your cigarette bounced between your lips 

Like someone with no hands using a pen 

What would you be writing me then? 

All the bites on my skin 

From the bed bugs 

I get a head rush 

Every time that I think about it 

So drink about it 

Smoke about it 

Spoke about it 

With your friend but she just don't know you how I 

Know you and that's the part about it 

Sad enough, I've saddled up this stallion of nostalgia 

Hya!

Release the hounds! 

Fell them breathing down your back 

Breeding ground for bacteria 

And I screamed so loud I left ears from miles around hearing it 

Me? I had my coattails on, her coke nails long 

It reached around my neck piercing it 

Right into my vocal chords 

Roadkill shawls 

Made from a jack russell terrier 

Feel the cold blade to your calf muscle area 

In my old age I'm a bad judge of character 

Captain America, flying quicker than a Boeing jet 

Bunny slippers, bloody fingers 

Flipping through a rolodex feelings all just coalesce 

With each other, bounty hunter, kill 'em like I'm Boba Fett 

Bobbing to the same damn rhythm 

We're just brain dead, plain red, grain fed chickens BOKOK! 

We're moths eating through fabric 

We're creatures of habit 

We creak in the attic 

That evil inhabits 

We're little lab rats 

In a labyrinth 

So elaborate 

Photos 

You said you'd bring Sgt. Pepper if you were ever stuck on an island 

Well I'd just bring a blank disc, sit and listen to silence 

Baby get down from there 

Jump 

Baby get down from there 

Jump 

Baby get down from there 

Jump 

Baby get down
