New Academics - Chromatic Lyrics

Light bulb glows, just got a notion
My brainwaves ripple like the surface of the ocean
Something good is on the rise
It starts in my belly and moves up to my eyes
'Cause when I get stressed I'm inclined to forget
The feelings that I feel in the middle of a set
But let me remind you, I'm not always rhyming
I've got to pay my rent, each rand is heavensent
But this city is very pretty, but the wages are low
And the tips tend to be shitty
But hey, I can't moan - I've got time on my phone
If there's petrol in my tank, who needs money in the bank?
Need a place to stay, I know a girl down the way
Who will let me stay over if I sleep on the sofa
Once upon a time I could have chosen the bed
But I blew my big chance, which worked out for the best

I'm going to push it back and blow some steam off
Before I lose my mind
I'm going to pack that pipe that makes it alright
Alright, alright, alright

We like to bounce to big beats
From hiphop through to garage like those UK boys the streets
But; "hey man", just play me whatever gives that vibe
If you're down with Johnny Walker then you'll know what that implies
It's a rhyme drop, system shock flowing through your mind
'Til your sneakers start to wiggle and your phobias unwind
All this available at super low rates
Call me now on my cell, don't hesitate
Because in five minutes time the planets will be aligned
And you'll know, 'cause the flow will take a boot to your behind
You'll figure it out sooner or later
I'm just too high right now to provide interpretation
Lying on the table you're about to be equipped
With a dish like Cartmann, it's a very tight fit
None of this would've happened if you'd stayed at home
Pizza, beer and DVD's, damn it man I'm gone

I'm going to push it back and blow some steam off
Before I lose my mind
I'm going to pack that pipe that makes it alright
Alright, alright, alright

I'm going to push it back and blow some steam off
Before I lose my mind
I'm going to pack that pipe that makes it alright
Alright, alright, alright
