FlyPaper Lyrics


Feeling stuck, self-loathing, shoe gazing?
Pesky flies getting you down?
Try new supersonic flypaper
It's catchy and it's popFlypaper, do it again, do it again
Do it again, can he do it again?
Do it again, do it again
Do it again, can we do it?Yeah, you see it everyday
All the people standing at the train station
Left, right, left, right, left, right
We don't talk to each other now
What an alien nation
Uptight, uptight, uptightI hope one day, some things can get better
I hope some way, our hearts can change the weather
As we walk this yellow road and try to shake the load
In this 416 area code, it's another night in TV land, I sayI'm not one to repeat myself but if it ain't broken, don't fix it
I see you burning all that midnight oil
But I'm caught between a rock and a hard place
That's why I'm walking in the city with a hard face

Seems I'm afraid of being afraidDo it again, do it again
Do it again, can we do it?You think I don't know
Oh, how I see your eyes run dry
Subliminal pro, I've got to go
Plus I couldn't be the pound in your chestGame for fame, for checkmate, I've got a new mind state
Plus I've got the power of the cat, rotate
I'm straight, digging in my record crate
Lights on your party, so they leave the hate
Come onAnd time is a thief that leaves nothing behind
And I've got no grief or acts to cry in this fair city
I'm just a man who wants to understand
Who wants to know the plans, tell me the plans, tell me the plansI'm not one to repeat myself but if it ain't broken, don't fix it
I see you burning all that midnight oil
But I'm caught between a rock and a hard place
That's why I'm walking in the city with a hard face
Seems I'm afraid of being afraidDo it again, do it again
Do it again, can we do it?Yo, okay, it seems at times that I'm under hypnosis
I suppose this city life is a process
I wrote this, like a million years ago
Tried to get out of the game a million tears agoBut I'm back, chillin', illin' for top billin'
Levitate to the ceiling by resurrectin' the feelin'
Hip-hop, it started out in the far
Are we lost in the dark? I think we maybe forgotBut never mind that, we like to party
We don't start trouble and we don't bother nobody
'Cause Y is a letter with a long, long tail
And I write these lyrics you can feel like BrailleHail, the most high, I post high
I used to swing low, now I let the crabs know
That my antimatter is shattering any ladder
That's crawling with snakes, make no mistake, we not fake, wake upI'm not one to repeat myself but if it ain't broken, don't fix it
I see you burning all that midnight oil
But I'm caught between a rock and a hard place
That's why I'm walking in the city with a hard face
Seems I'm afraid of being afraidOoh, got stuck, ooh, flypaper
I don't care, I don't care
Who's that girl? She's flypaper
She don't care, she don't care

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

k-os (born Kevin Brereton on February 20, 1972 in Toronto, Ontario) is a Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer of Trinidadian descent. His real name may also be cited as Kheaven, a spelling he adopted later.

The alias "k-os" is pronounced "chaos" and is an acronym for "Knowledge of Self," although in a later interview he also said that it stands for "Kheaven's Original Sound." His music incorporates a wide variety of music genres including but not limited to rap, funk, rock, and reggae. The lyrics frequently focus on promoting a "positive message" while at times expressing criticism of mainstream hip hop culture's obsession with money, fame and glorification of violence. A musician as well as a producer, k-os has written and produced a large portion of all four of his albums. k-os usually performs with a live band, something that is uncommon in the hip hop genre. He sometimes plays guitar and keyboard both during live performances and in the studio.

k-os received his first musical exposure with the single "Musical Essence," released in 1993. After the release of his second single "Rise Like The Sun" in 1996 he withdrew from the industry because he was dissatisfied with his musical style. He reappeared briefly in 1999 and released his debut album Exit in 2002. The album received positive reviews but sold relatively few copies. He released his second album Joyful Rebellion in 2004, which received platinum status in Canada. Joyful Rebellion received positive reviews, but at times was criticized for speaking extensively on the state of hip hop. k-os's third album, Atlantis: Hymns for Disco, was released in 2006, and his fourth album entitled Yes! was released in April of 2009.
