Whats your frequency?

Kennith is laying next to me and
his lips are moving
about the government situation
his jaw is flapping and I hear nothing
he is taking apart the English language
and pasting it together again
he is a montage of video clips
from world war three
or four
"What war?"

I say with a twist
with just enough wit
"War is all in your head
and here laying
Kennith you're dead.
Hows that for a god damn rhyme?
a god damn mind fucking rhyme, Kennith!"

"My heads on fire and it hurts when I piss, Kennith
call a doctor and tell him to get a clue
when he's tapping your knee and the priest is inside you"
it's belief in miracles
that gives America its trust
that gives America it oil, wealth and comfort
Go colts!

"And I'm excited Kennith,
I know the meaning of life
it is sad and tried and true
Kennith its horrible and I
shouldn't tell you
because when the levee breaks
from over your head
you have nothing left to grab
just your neighbor's old photo albums
just somebody else's belongings
so take your big screen
and take your wife by the hand
kiss her while you can
because I know the meaning of life Kennith
I know

Hows that for a god damn rhyme?
a god damn mind fucking rhyme Kennith!"
