Pass the time kickin' as time rips by Neither goose nor the gander fly Buy a minute spend an hour burnin', burnin' Take a peak as the model earns it, earns it Walk a mile as it keeps crawlin', crawlin' Clean the politician, wash with everpure
So the answer gets harder, harder And the truth's getting farther and farther And the bottle keeps churnin' and churnin' Seven caged tigers fly
Wastin' time chasin' those cows that fly Churnin' out all that butterfly sugarboost Track the blade as it sweeps downward and onward Take a pill it'll kill all the martyrs, martyrs Passin' time rippin' as time kicks by Pass the umbilical cord down for this fly by Take a sneak while the model earns it earns it Hike a mile as it keeps crawlin' on crawlin' on
