An excess rules everything I do

So tell me how can I be more like you

Cause all of this don't seem to bother you

So tell me how can I be more like you



The lights are on but nobody's home

If I'm mad, well them my mouth foam

Cover my transportation in chrome

Under the sky dome

Pegasus flown over my skeletal features

But an opaque anatomy is all I'll ever be

For none to see



A numb teacher holding a counseling position

Posture remaining unchristian

Slouchin' down so low I'm missing

Caverns and taverns is where I sought my refuge

Stood in the foyer of the brothel meshing with sin

Grippin' a bottle

How many times I sat up in the night sky

Craving to die, wanting to fly

Knowing this was all a lie

The succubus French kissed me in the orafice

Complex as Oedipus left in my mouth a taste of distrust

Lust for flesh & bone, but ain't no angels in dust

Ain't no heroines in opium, word up I scoped 'em

There ain't no answers this is all random evolution

Best check the chemicals in your solution

You might be prostitutin'



An excess rules everything I do

So tell me how can I be more like you

Cause all of this don't seem to bother you

So tell me how can I be more like you



Why is everything so technical, got me thinkin' mechanical

Puffi' on those botanicals, every second so critical

Board with the human language

Anguish, beats on my mental, fuckin' with chemicals

Sick as the appetites of cannibals

Far away they shoot a laser from a computer

It ricochets off a satellite panel

To a missile silo in Cuba

Eyes behold catastrophe

Forseen by Nostradamus, the prophets peep the millennium

Age of the broken promise

More religions than park pigeons

The poor envy the rich and

Monetary decisions make pessimistic the vision

It's like the whole planet went off the deep end

While I was sleepin'

Men be leapin off ledges, when there women leave for the weekend

The human mind's an asylum, dialin' help lines repeatedly

Pushin' garbage down and putting more in so greedily

In the head of irate Babylonians

Everything is what it is, even when it's not



An excess rules everything I do

So tell me how can I be more like you

Cause all of this don't seem to bother you

So tell me how can I be more like you
