Cyborgs On the Moon

[Verse 1: Bender]

Crawled out the Cambrian seas

Came from the deep, made a beeline straight for the trees

Replaced the jungle with skyscrapers and streets

Jet stream to the west, highway to the east

Soon, see the white orchid in bloom

Sow's head on a stick and the flies swarm where it looms

I see the youth getting high scorching a spoon

Make me wanna go and fashion the mic cord to a noose

Or wait for our light source to balloon

The world turn back to magma the firestorm can resume

Tonight I'm asking the psych ward for a room

Having fevered dreams of death on a white horse in the gloom

Men of science warn that we're doomed

In due time we won't have no more lifeforms to consume

'Cause we can put cyborgs on the moon

But still can't rinse the stink of the primordial ooze



[Chorus: W. Delion]

It took a long time to forget what passed

Sand dunes bubble into pools of glass

And with the bad moon rising, in the falling sky

Look for me on the dark side



[Verse 2: Patience]

Hooded falcons circle garbage that they see as rats

Artificial islands shaped like spiders wherein we relax

Couldn't fathom the hardships, only dream of cash

Self not exempt, no one calls their own a fiendish laugh

Rodent smells another rotting that it thinks is trash

Unarmed kid shot by pig, pig fails to link the past

Prior generations did the same but we can shrink the gap

Your influence is illegitimate, I'm sick of your indignant badge

This refuse should have been recycled, that's a fucking fact

Suffer from another's lapse in judgement we can run the track

Paved over a habitat, with all the gravitas of grabbing ass

And blame your friends, never made amends, it's the way it went, I'm not mad at that

Mistaken cloud-gazer, that's not a bird but a floating drone

Controlled by subpar technology to your mobile phone

No vacancy at your safe haven and when you're forced from your home

Look for Patience Flight Distance, poet warlord of Boca Raton



[Chorus: W. Delion]

It took a long time to forget what passed

Sand dunes bubble into pools of glass

And with the bad moon rising, in the falling sky

Look for me on the dark side



[Verse 3: Escrol]

That firewater out the Cuyahoga, mixed with that ayahuasca and psychotropics

Got that mind to open, that siren's song to the sky's Corona

Walking dead while the copperhead trying to bite the cobra

Y'all been bottle-fed while your idol's stanking of lime and sulfur

The correlation in Whitey Bolger and Iacocca

Water whippers chipping them pies of coca and Chrysler motors

Ivory poachers, land claimants and rightful owners

Fight promoters with rifles loaded thugging for white Jehovah

Ayatollahs tryna build an altar

Preacher man look more like Geechee Dan tryna fill their coffers

'Round the time the kid was a wiz at Contra

Olly moving arms like he Piston Honda in Nicaragua

They whip the soft into Rickenbacker

While Knickerbocker still'll sell that story of prince and pauper to children watching Taking them pigs to slaughter

They kill ya' father, you kill they father

They're calling that intifada but shit is karma 



[Chorus: W. Delion]

It took a long time to forget what passed

Sand dunes bubble into pools of glass

And with the bad moon rising, in the falling sky

Look for me on the dark side
