How to Be a Carpenter

So you want to be a carpenter, do you?

Well it takes more than a hammer, boy

You're gonna need blueprints and a will to build

And straighten your cap, you look like you've been through a warWipe that grin off your mug, you got a sturdy frame?

Sluggish posture just won't cut it

You're gonna need schooling, and, and, and take notes

And God if I catch you yawning againYou're gonna regret ever asking for my help

And dammit you gotta hustle, this is a slacker free zone

And, where's my pencil? Go get your hard hat

Here's a nickel, go get us a ruler and a saw

And a drill and lots of graph paperYo, I used to have a rope ladder but tattered were the rungs

I strung it from the highest willow, trying to hug the sun

The seventh level buckled and I tumbled from the summit

Now I'm back to re climb and this time light my cigarette from itMy stitchin' division to vision warfares numb

Enough to soak suddenly in a bullet bath and skip stones in the morning

As I, lie in color phantom tantrum explicable

Sit and pull the petals off wild flower patches, magic happensBehold, pity the lowlife parish

Doom city barracks left remorse coursed

On a horse drawn carriage by the torch of Polaris

To the badlands, where every bridge collapseRight where the crowd stands

Where the witches are fireproof and every preacher's a madman

Frigid be the Appleseed demeanor towards the bay

Where the land shark parliament swimsWhen they pause to polish they fins

The better brains will preach the village through the city square

To the light, heavy and middle-weight integrate

Slept with sticks and stones in my pillowcaseOohmy bomb's light simulator picks barnacles off the tugboat belly

Left my spirit home in a shoebox in case I die

Got a rugged smoke green halo floatin' inches off the swamp

Had that phase when the devil tree contacts a sparkle in my eyeNow step back from the reservoir and let the settlers drink

Salvage all priorities and iron out all kinks

My house ain't made of bricks and straw but never has it crumbled

'Cuz I stitched the brain's rigidity with symmetry

Come visit me, It's fascinatingNow here's how its done, I'm only gonna show you once

So pay close attention, hear me now or hear me never

Glue your little eyes to the diagram

See the plywood, the nails, the glue? You work every inchYour domain and you must treat it well

Keep it clean or it'll swallow you whole

Where's the T square, hand me the pliers

Now dammit, oh this will never doYou have to want the castle, head up, shoulders back

Be the materials, know your limits only to break your limits

Are you listening? God dammit boy, pay attention

Try it again, little bit more juice this timeTry it again, yeah a little bit more elbow grease this time

Try it again, concentrate, a little more focus this time

You can kick and scream and yell but damn I'm only tryin' to help

Try it again, you're not doing it right, here now, ya'll watchTry it again, stop sulking, I'm the example, for real, watch

Try it again, I'm bout to make it easy for you yall, just watch

You can kick and scream and yell but damn I'm only tryin' to help[Unverified] stinging the hunt

The hunt dispatched a pack of wild dog silhouettes

All sulking by the skyline, focused with a bonus hunger pain

My sincere addiction imbalance stems

From a vintage grimace slap to the mug ofAncestral branch camped on the vessels

Yes and I abide, the laws of the hidden desert survived

And every peasant presented it on the crescent less deprived

With the exception of pleasant finale bingesOn the great endangered interests of phantom brigades

Slaving to save that princess

I double the negative, to no avail, no promised benefits

Just delegates peddling pairs of negatives

With magnified magnanimous appearance sandy sinners in opinion shutNow what of the madness fragments? Stagnant

I oughta make a vision sing my twix cling to your pigeon wings

Vision militia indent benders , we've flooded Hell's kitchen sink

Walkin' eye civility simpleton citizen mixers to kiss the sky in unison

[Unverified]Sinister city blistered corporate rule igans

All I really want's a nickel to feed my little pigs

[Unverified] Big Dick three cheers to the product

Consumer populace feed but never dreamed of the processWhen a slanted advantage point sort of makeshift criminals

Date rape the hostage

Dream away the blame pain, yeah but it seeps through the cracks

And drips from the ceiling and smells the rich scent of my tracks

All I ever really wanted was a jungle, and a jungle I gotSee it ain't the vision it's the plot that makes me stop

Try it again, I don't want to

Try it one more time

I'm not even interested anymore
